*sigh*

So. We need to talk about my health.

it also hasn't had a negative impact on his circumstances (other than maybe on his soul). he's doing fine. you don't get to call what he has going on a disability and equate it to actual disability until it impacts him negatively, sorry. there's no correlation between what he is and what I have

I like how people call Trump mentally ill when he is completely consistent with who he has been since he first appeared within the public sphere, the only difference being orders of magnitude as the exact behavior he does now has been rewarded or excused by others every time.

The work is still going to bring people home.

Good evening y'all! I still haven't raised any funds for my rent yet and I'd really like to get the ball rolling soon. I need $1600 by April 30 to pay my rent, every dollar helps right now. #MutualAidRequest

AI as a Fascist Artifact (This is a bit of a merger of two talks I recently gave about fascism and AI. One was in German at the Cables Of Resistance conference, one in English at the Milton Wolf Seminar on Media and Diplomacy. I added some shots of the slides I used as a structure for the text which […]

In which I argue that "AI" as we understand it today is a structurally fascist artifact.

Monterey Park, California has banned any data centers within its city limits Monterey Park's city council has moved to ban construction of any data centers within its borders.

“The California city's leaders placed a permanent ban on these buildings, labelling them a public nuisance. A proposed plan to construct a 250,000 square foot data center was stopped after residents and advocates pushed back against the project.”

This is important and shocking news from NYT.

And it doesn’t mention the DRC third-country deportation program has already begun. ICE sent 15 immigrants from Latin American countries there five days ago.

People take such umbrage with me when I try to explain that outside of America, nobody trusts America.

This is why. This is the reason why. Partnering with America is like starting a countdown to betrayal.

Annaleigh's Needs | Amazon Gift List

Mutual Aid Request
Good morning. Absolutely no help came in yesterday. I have a couple Rx I need to pay for ($5) which I'm now OUT of. I need $200 for groceries which I'm running out of. Up to $200 for Uber. 💕💸 V: Annaleigh-Watts CA: $annaleighmaria PP: AnaleeWatts www.amazon.com/registries/g...

Annaleigh is my friend and is desperately seeking assistance for food and medicine.

Please help

donations for the gift giving pot will open tomorrow morning

this is a very strange time in history. we have no idea how generous people will be this go-round

all we know is that this community always steps up to brighten each other's day when they can

so you throw a tantrum over rose-tinted and likely cherry-picked nostalgia for a time that never truly was, makes sense

funny how y'all have electoralism backwards and expect voters to show up for politicians rather than politicians to create platforms worth supporting

we pay them

our taxes and society support THEM

we owe them nothing

and when our system can't hold anyone accountable for genocide, it has failed

I’ve just got a week guys. Please help it’s pressing.

“I would like this candidate to state firmly she doesn’t want to help a genocide and would care about my civil rights as a trans person” is apparently too high a bar for a single candidate to clear but yeah we’re the ones being unreasonable apparently

NEW DATA: Students have been resisting a 300% increase in repression of Palestine activism since the start of the Gaza genocide.

Our new report shares data, analysis, & client stories about 2025's trends in anti-Palestinian repression from both Trump and complicit universities.

Black background with WHN branding at the top reading “whn.global.” Large pink and white text says: “Masks don’t work.” Below it: “Let’s debunk this →” Smaller text near the bottom reads: “Short answer: They do, but only when used correctly, and not all ‘masks’ are created equal.” At the bottom: “World Health Network — Science for a safer, healthier world.”

Black background with “whn.global” at the top. Large pink text says: “The physics is clear: well-fitted respirators (N95/FFP2 or better) cut what you breathe out and what you breathe in.” Below, white text with one pink-highlighted phrase says: “Confusion often comes from studies that used loose surgical/medical masks, allowed people to take masks off while exposed, or mixed very different mask types and fits, conditions that blur the true benefit.” At the bottom: “World Health Network — Science for a safer, healthier world.”

Black background with “whn.global” at the top. Large pink heading says: “Dose matters.” Below, large white text says: “Infection risk rises with the dose you inhale; cutting that dose (even partially) lowers risk. When both people mask, the reduction compounds, dropping exposure much more than one person masking alone.” At the bottom: “World Health Network — Science for a safer, healthier world.”

Black background with “whn.global” at the top. Large pink heading says: “Fit is crucial.” Below, white text says: “Respirators are designed to seal and maintain high filtration across a range of particle sizes. Loose surgical/medical masks mainly help with source control and can leak around the edges; a well-fitted respirator protects you and others.” Lower down, smaller white and pink text says: “For more information, visit our ‘Yes, We Continue Wearing Masks’ page: whn.global/yes-we-continue-wearing-masks/” At the bottom: “World Health Network — Science for a safer, healthier world.”

“Masks don’t work.”

We still hear this a lot, and it usually comes down to misunderstanding how masks actually work.

Masks aren’t just tiny strainers. High-quality masks (like N95s) use electrostatic charge to attract and trap airborne particles, including those that carry viruses.

jfc, humans are not innately anything, you turds

we choose, every day we choose

what you choose does not determine what everyone else values or is capable of

an individually cruel human does not taint the species' internal nature in reverse anymore than a kind act redeems all sins and cruelty

Can Stonewall Mark II put trans wars behind it? New chair talks of consensus but she’ll have a tough job unpicking charity’s bullying stance Kathleen Stock In the history of gay rights, there have always been fearless souls willing to face down mobs of pitchfork-wielding fanatics, but perhaps none so brave as Kezia Dugdale, incoming chair of trustees at Stonewall. In an interview with The Guardian this weekend, the former Scottish Labour leader did the unthinkable and praised JK Rowling.

If you had any doubts that Stonewall is a danger to trans people, here is Kathleen Stock praisng them in the Times.

"When the gay rights cause first got going, the ideal was toleration"
