It’s as easy as shutting your effin mouth!
And did I mention… it’s free?!
This sounds amazing! I love how accessible they’ve made the event.
in case you're curious about how angry Minnesota is about ICE, it was -20 today
For @msnownews.bsky.social, I wrote an article about how ICE Watch is grounded in sociological theories of violence prevention.
The reality is that most men will only commit public violence in extremely specific scenarios and ICE Watch disrupts the conditions necessary for escalation.
new race to see which state will be the first to charge federal agents with murder or attempted murder of their residents. Solidarity works better when all try it rather than none.
The word “blistering” was made for this editorial. I love it.
It's the first Monday in October which means the Supreme Court is back in session. Here's my preview of all the cruelty and evil they will visit upon us this term.

Tim Walz : trans rights are human rights
JB Pritzker : we’re taking names of all you fuckers and coming after you
Gavin Newsom : lol my pr firm made another meme while i guest starred on another right wing podcast
Hey so just fyi, if you're abandoning trans rights you're abandoning all civil rights
At that point what the fuck is the point of the democracy you're willing to sacrifice trans people for
This actually isn't hard at all, quit making it pretend hard because you finally feel scared too
🧵 Flu Season 2025-26: Key Info (thank you @kffhealthnews.org @politifact.bsky.social )
TL;DR: Get your flu shot this fall. It's safe, effective, and the best way to prevent severe illness, hospitalization, and death.
Not really an overstatement to say that the test of a free society is whether or not comedians can make fun of the country's leader on TV without repurcussions.
Honestly, it feels like a simple transaction.
Carnegie Mellon wants me to send them money.
_I_ want them to not paint over the student fence saying "NO RAPISTS ON CAMPUS" in preparation for Donald Trump's visit.
Oh well. I guess we don't always get what we want.

Protest idea: for the Fourth of July, wear black.
That’s it. Wear black, in mourning for the country we used to at least try to be. Be silent, be visible. If you put up a flag, do it upside down.
If this resonates with you, pass the idea on. I can’t do it alone. None of us can.
We cannot tear down Empire if we are unwilling to face the ways that we manifest Empire within ourselves.
The way Empire's seeds have been skillfully planted deep inside our hearts, long before we were born, the way so many communities foster these attitudes for us, intentionally or not.
Straight white men we need to organize and be in the front lines.
This is it we have been called upon. No more letting the minorities and women do the fighting.
As being the only demographic with protection from the government we have to take point.
So white boys let’s fuck them up.
My daughter’s speech therapist went out of business because Medicaid reimbursement rates were too low. We do not have Medicaid. I’m going to keep posting this until people understand that when Medicaid gets cut *everyone* loses services.
Each time you ask an AI chatbot a question, it sends a request to a data center and strains an increasingly scarce resource: water.

the fundamental disconnect between the manosphere and reality is that they are incapable of understanding that this is - according to every woman I’ve ever met - the sexiest thing a man has ever done
Erasure from society Call it the concentration camp tendency—the desire to exclude those deemed undesirable from society and carry on as if they didn’t exist. It’s the necklace threading together all the polices that are currently choking the country to death. And taking off one or two beads isn’t going to save us. What do concentration camps have to do with this? Remember that a concentration camp is the mass detention of civilians without any real trial on the basis of race, religion, or affiliation—some aspect of them rather than any actual crime they’ve committed. Who they are, or who they choose stand with, is the supposed offense. I’ve written before about how concentration camps are meant to remove a group of people from society and to exile them in detention. There, often without formal charges, they have fewer rights, as Hannah Arendt once noted, than a citizen convicted of an actual crime. I want to look at all the paths that the administration is pursuing to banish certain people from society. In some cases, they’re talking about actually using camps and physically imprisoning people. At other times, the measures are far less severe. But looking at Republicans’ actions across the board, it becomes apparent that exclusion is the motivating principle to almost everything they’re doing.

Every media outlet, including trans ones, are missing the big picture about the bogus, Chat GPT, anonymous (SEGM) report on health care for trans people. Here's the parts that matter MOST:
1. It includes social transition as medical intervention. 1/n

the only approach to trump that has ever made sense was “slow him down as much as possible while rallying public support to your cause” and while most politicians, pundits, and big law partners don’t get this, some do, and lawyers in particular have the tools to act on that understanding

Social media post by Brandon Friedman ( @brandonfried ...) on X, posted 1 hour ago, with the text: 'All the folks who exited NBC today. Seen together, hoo boy. Message received.' The post includes a grid of six headshot photos of individuals who reportedly left NBC, arranged in two rows of three.
Put all the “DEI” folks who got let go onto a new network and I’d watch the shit out of it.
It is great to see the outpouring of help and care that we as a people can have, but we should not be at the whims and ability of the common man to manage.
Every post seeking help for medical debt or even just needs of survival is a failure of our government
