Today, MSF is going public with something we've been fighting behind closed doors for months: Gilead will not sell us their new HIV drug, lenacapavir.
The sticking point isn't even price, they just refuse to sell.

The poem I have in Dog Teeth issue 4 is one of the most deeply personal ones I've written. I'd love for people to go to the zine and read the whole thing
i cannot fucking believe we're having kink discourse AGAIN because younger queers AGAIN think that throwing other queers under the bus AGAIN will do anything to prevent themselves from being put on the wall by fascists AGAIN. solidarity now! or you'll die! we'll all die! fuck!!!!!!!!!!!!
“direct your anger at trump not the democrats” buddy you are severely underestimating the amount of anger i have available to me
world-altering decisions are being made by a cabal of gambling addicts hell bent on self enrichment no matter the cost to humanity, we should look into that.
Of course the IDU's best banker is a war criminal.
There's no world in which this piece of shit doesn't crawl up Trump and Netanyahu's arsehole.
Fuck Mark Carney.
Repost if your account is a safe space for the trans community. 🏳️⚧️
the facts are that transition care is safe, effective, and statistically the single most successful medical intervention we have ever invented. almost no regret, not many complications, and a massive rise in QOL for almost all patients. it's more successful than heart surgery by magnitudes.
Literally
Laura Palmer Raids @Marxicology To put it in perspective, the people who are saying that trans rights are e political loser are the same people that refused to acknowledge a genocide in Gaza. It's 2 political outlook that is fundamentally sociopathic and depraved.
I printed it and stuck self-adhesive copper tape to it. There's copper tape with conductive adhesive so you can add multiple overlapping pieces and it counts as one conductive surface. Then I used the second part of the mold to shape the copper, so that it sticks inside the recessed traces. Then I used sandpaper to file away at the raised ridges. The copper traces are now electrically independent of each other. Done! But if I want, I can remove the extra copper tape.
The companion mold at the bottom. This second 3D-printed part pushes the copper tape down into the recessed trace channels so it conforms to the shape. The two parts sandwich together with alignment spikes to keep everything registered.

I made a tool that turns PCB designs into 3D-printable molds. you sandwich copper tape between the parts, sand the ridges, and you have a real working PCB. no etching, no chemicals. I am losing my mind

It's easy to be concerned about vaccines when you stop being concerned about viruses. You can only stop being concerned about viruses in a world with vaccines.
Measles is one of those nightmare diseases that, if it hadn't been killing people for hundreds of years, people would ABSOLUTELY be pushing conspiracy theories about right now. It's too nasty in too many different directions to seem natural. But oh, boy, it sure is.
IF YOU'RE UNEMPLOYED IT'S NOT BECAUSE THERE ISNT ANY WORK JUST LOOK AROUND: A HOUSING SHORTAGE, CRIME, POLLUTION; WE NEED BETTER SCHOOLS AND PARKS. WHATEVER OUR NEEDS, THEY ALL REQUIRE WORK. AND AS LONG AS WE HAVE UNSATISFIED NEEDS, THERE'S WORK TO BE DONE. SO ASK YOURSELE, WHAT KIND OF WORLD HAS WORK BUT NO JOBS. IT'S A WORLD WHERE WORK IS NOT RELATED TO SATISFYING OUR NEEDS, WORLD WHERE WORK IS ONLY RELATED TO SATISFYING THE PROFIT NEEDS OF BUSINESS. THIS COUNTRY WAS NOT BUILT BY THE HUGE CORPORATIONS OR GOVERNMENT BUREAUCRACIES. IT WAS BUILT BY PEOPLE WHO WORK. AND, IT IS WORKING PEOPLE WHO SHOULD CONTROL THE WORK TO BE DONE. YET, AS LONG AS EMPLOYMENT IS TIED TO SOMEBODY ELSE'S PROFITS, THE WORK WONT GET DONE.
the Black Panthers were right
If the current status quo is the courts working as intended, then we must conclude that them 'working as intended' is insufficient to prevent a fascistic takeover.

Why do ICE officials wear masks? ICE law enforcement officers wear masks to prevent doxing, which can (and has) placed them and their families at risk. All ICE law enforcement officers carry badges and credentials and will identify themselves when required for public safety or legal necessity.
Bitch ass Nazis need to wear masks but I spent two years dealing with people threatening to kill my family because I posted on main that people should get a COVID vaccine.
This reminds me that I’m old enough to remember when Doug Ford shut down the Ontario Science because it had fAlLeN iNtO DiSrEpAiR and how we didn’t hear word one from his cHiEf mEdIcAl oFfICeR during the peak of this year’s flu crush on hospitals.

A printed paper sign taped to the front door of the shop. Black text reads: AQUARIUM CENTRAL MASK REQUIRED Exemption: Small Children Under 36" tall FREE MASKS INSIDE ON ENTRANCE RIGHT WALL Thanks for your respect Our motto: Keeping fish diseases and mean anti-maskers out since 2020
One of several printed signs on a cork board behind the cash register; the others are fish-related information or diagrams, but this one reads: MASKS REQUIRED "What about my rights" Our private property, our rights first "Masks don't work" Wear an N95 respirator "It's the cold/flu" Heard of long COVID? Guess not "I have a Medical Excuse" You shouldn't be out during COVID "I've already had COVID" Doesn't stop transmission COVID-19 SURCHARGES $50 If we have to explain about masks $100 If we have to hear why you disagree
Went to an aquarium supply store last night and was delighted to see the staff in N95 masks and all customers still required to wear masks also. I wish I saw more places still doing this. The “Covid surcharges” sign behind the till particularly got me 😂

No, they're the same abuses and the same problems, it's just that ICE is currently treating white people the way police normally have treated brown people.
Neither is reformable.
Neither is retrainable.
They stand together & support each other.
You cannot separate them.
They are the same problem.
I realize that I’m being that girl, but the critiques directed at ICE here - that it will attract white nationalists who wish to do violence, that it will attempt to use its violence to take political power and choose its own leaders - are indistinguishable from defund’s critiques of police.
i’m so fuckin sick and tired of “call your reps again today and beg them to have basic fuckin decency”. do you know how many times i called dianne feinstein’s office and begged her to be a decent human being to no avail? voters keep choosing psychos, okay?
Ideas are, no question, the cheap part. I have SPREADSHEETS of ideas, and if I keep up my current production rate, which is already unrealistically high, I will die before I finish using them all. EXECUTION is the important part.
Looks like someone took our ball and ran with it, and continued with a fully portable C++ port of Second Reality - including a browser version!

Finally we can replace DOOM as "the thing you run on things"! 💪
It's pretty wild to me that investigators have uncovered that anti-trans campaigns are largely funded by the fossil fuel industry, and that the presumed motivations are pretty directly to redirect the public conversation away from climate change... and that this isn't bigger news.
So far there have been zero trans women reported as having visited epsteins pedo island. But lots of people who want you to think trans women are threats to children seemed to have gone there at some point.
Curious...
