Still fuck vercel for this though 🤢

Sorry for necro, but based on your feed and mutuals who follow you, I'm hoping you'd actually be interested in this; if not mevermind

Unfortunately the replit CEO is pretty far-right/pro-trump as well. Here's him going on the tucker carlson podcast: podcasts.happyscribe.com/the-tucker-c...

Note from the editors: ProPublica is publishing the names of the two federal immigration agents involved in the fatal shooting of Minnesota protester Alex Pretti. We believe there are few investigations that deserve more sunlight and public scrutiny than this one, in which two masked agents fired 10 shots at Pretti as he lay on the ground after being pepper-sprayed. The Department of Justice said it is investigating the incident, but the names of the two agents have been withheld from Congress and from state and local law enforcement. The policy of shielding officers’ identities, particularly after a public shooting, is a stark departure from standard law enforcement protocols, according to lawmakers, state attorneys general and former federal officials. Such secrecy, in our view, deprives the public of the most fundamental tool for accountability.

A note from our editors:

but maybe I just should have said 'people'. sorry for the generalization

I've just been frustrating watching so many supposed allies try to throw queer people under the bus from even my side

To be clear: I'm a leftist; not trying to do the 'dunk on leftists from the centre' thing

but I've seen way too many people enamoured with the populist and economic aspects of leftism willing to ignore "is a bigot" in favour of "against trump and republican elites"

hope I'm wrong tho!

It is!

Honestly wild that folks are people are roasting Chappell Roan over this in the same timeline many leftists are hauling MTG as an ally 🙃

Love what you and your campaign are doing 💜

I'm no longer in Illinois (for many years), but rooting for you from afar!

GENTLEMEN, YOU CAN'T PLAGIARIZE IN HERE. THIS IS THE PLAGIARISM ROOM!

Oh wait turns out I got more

I was even born *in* 1990 but am 35 so I guess now I'm Gen X too!(?)

(And my Gen Z friends have all been bumped up to millennials lol)

This really feels like a "your boos mean nothing; I've seen what makes you cheer" situation. Do appearance insults from someone who finds RFK Jr attractive mean anything?? To be beautiful to her you apparently have to be cutting off whale heads and tying them to the roof of your car!

In Bed with the Right is what's been getting me through 2025.

How am I ever going to describe to my offline partner why I am dead today 😆

this is so cursed

“What’s at Stake is Everything”: The Last Columbia Protester in ICE Detention

This week’s episode is an interview with two lawyers who represent Leqaa Kordia, a young Palestinian woman who is in ICE detention for protesting genocide.

open.spotify.com/episode/7gid...?

I have been charged in a federal indictment sought by the Department of Justice.

This political prosecution is an attack on all of our First Amendment rights. I’m not backing down, and we’re going to win.

I was thinking the same! It's a great photo!

UNTIL IT’S DONE, Ep. 4: Sylvia Rivera

In the 1970s, queer New Yorkers had been pushed to the margins of NYC. Our trans neighbors faced immense cruelty. But in Sylvia Rivera, they found a champion.

As we combat Trump’s politics of darkness, her legacy can light the path forward.

I think it's also quite the stretch to call her reporting "relatively factual". She spreads outright misinformation about trans people.

Like you say, that resonates with centrist/conservative elite moral panics! And the right has a lot of funding for anti-left moral panics :/

*looking at the problems in the USA* "yes, snake tattoos are the REAL problem here!" 🤦🏻‍♀️

(there is of course the actual throughline of god forbid women do what we want with our bodies)

I also sometimes use it online for myself when trying to convey "I'm bi but primarily date women/nonbinary people", because the same contingent of people will hear me say bi and assume I pass for a straight woman and can "escape" homophobia by dating men, which I don't and can't

I see it mostly as a response to biphobia, where some groups of either young lesbians or terfs will yell at bi women or nonbinary lesbians for using the term lesbian

In real life I see lesbian, dyke, sapphic, and queer all used pretty frequently

what ezra doesn't seem willing to accept is that charlie kirk was part of a political movement that does not think that "we are going to have to live here with each other" and is fact very interested in the elimination and/or subjugation of many, many people

also: take WHICH disagreements seriously? like, i can disagree with someone who believes the tax rate for the wealthy should be lower than what i would like. i will not enter into a "debate" with someone who believes Black women are inferior or that LGTBQ people should be stoned.

I lost my long-haired grey kitty two months ago and want to send you all so many 💜s. Your pets were so lucky to be loved by you 💖

Conservative Voices are Being Silenced YouTube video by Pogue Mahone

Big "conservative voices are being silenced!" energy

"I thought about not sending this,"

"but"

💀

(love the podcast and hearing your thoughts in your own voice and laugh is fantastic!)

I'm a subscriber (technically twice! both on apple and patreon 😅), and trans, and just personally I really appreciate how you've made so much of the bonus episodes about the anti-trans panic freely available.

Thanks for both your and Peter's fantastic reporting (and humour!) 💜

but what if we like the sound of your voice! (as a dedicated in bed with the right listener)
