My god. Essential, horrifying reporting here.

A better world is possible

Students feel like they can’t enroll in majors like Af-Am Studies and WGSS because they’re getting messages from all sides that they’re not remunerative. And yet they desperately want the knowledge, so classes are full. That seems to be the situation everywhere.

They won't start with banning birth control. First they'll lie about it. Then dictate who can prescribe it, use it, fund it, in what forms, and for how long. Suddenly, your doctor won't call you back. I know this is what they'll do because it's what they're doing to transgender healthcare right now.

Justice Department withheld and removed some Epstein files related to Trump An NPR investigation finds the public database of Epstein files is missing dozens of pages related to sexual abuse accusations against President Trump.

I should be old /jaded enough not to be bothered by guys hyuck-hyucking about being forced to acknowledge women who just won a gold medal. But I’ll be damned if that one hasn’t been under my skin all day.

At the very least, I don’t want to hear about the loneliness thing anymore. Go improve.

ICE now confirming that there is a measles outbreak at the Texas concentration camp where young Liam was held.

Once you understand that you're dealing with murderous liars, you stop entertaining what they say as possibly credible and legitimate. The fight against them is about stopping them from terrorizing and killing by any means, not winning debates about your reality versus theirs.

A reminder to the news media: “conflicting accounts” is what you say BEFORE the incontrovertible video evidence appears. After that, your job is to ask why one side is lying, not to repeat the lie and pretend no one knows the truth.

There should be no future in the Democratic Party for any Member of Congress who votes to give more funding to these death squads.

If You’re Pregnant, Here’s What You Should Know About the Medical Procedures That Could Save Your Life Women experiencing pregnancy loss in states with abortion bans told us they wished they had known what to expect and how to advocate for themselves. We created this guide for anyone who finds themselv...

We created this guide for anyone who could experience a miscarriage in a state with abortion restrictions.

We wrote it in consultation with dozens of doctors, including those who regularly treat patients who are miscarrying 👇

This isn't just a casual observation. Fascism scholars have long made this point. It's why calling them "weird" was a more effective strategy than talking about the prices of eggs. Fascism is an aesthetic political movement - you need to make people feel embarassed and horrified by it.

Gold star to the student who wrote in my teaching evals that I should provide a paragraph summary of each reading in case they don’t want to do them. I respect the honesty my dude

“We cross our bridges when we come to them and burn them behind us, with nothing to show for our progress except a memory of the smell of smoke, and a presumption that once our eyes watered”

RIP Tom Stoppard

I love Detroit

21 fucking Obgyns were involved in her care. She was hospitalized three times before 9 weeks. This was murder, pure and simple - a conspiracy to just try to keep her body operating long enough to get her to viability.

I don't often talk about having been a victim of sexual assault in my childhood and adolescence, but I will say now that everything I've been through in trying to rebuild my sense of self and become a functioning adult is burning in my chest with raw fury at seeing the stupid cruelty of these people

The notion abusers need to resort to conspiracies and subterfuge is more comforting than the truth that many people will readily look the other way when confronted with sexual violence if doing otherwise would even slightly inconvenience them

like this is a child rape auction. our president participated and was photographed in a child rape auction

I analyzed more than 100 extremist manifestos: Misogyny was the common thread Gender identity–driven violence is the most common ideological theme across ‘lone-actor’ extremist manifestos in a recent study.

"What emerges is a chilling picture of how deep-seated misogyny, disguised as grievance and moral outrage, can escalate ideological violence."

Lawsuits from men against the doctors who provide abortions to their partners illustrate that men understand abortion bans as legal codifications of their private right to dominate and control women.

This all looks very bad, but to be fair there's no direct evidence, verified by a court of law, that shows Donald Trump has ever committed sexual assault. [touches earpiece] Hold on, I'm getting some new information.

After resigning in disgrace, Cuomo attacked the women he harassed with vexatious, punitive legal filings meant to bankrupt and humiliate them, and threatened to sue them for defamation. He wanted them to shut up. At great personal risk, they didn’t.

Congratulations to the 13 brave women who risked their careers and reputations to stand up to Cuomo’s sexual predation
