Rep. Adelita Grijalva: "What specific diseases do you believe deserve less medical research?"
RFK: "DEI."
Grijalva: "Do you have a specific program, a specific disease that deserves less funding?"
RFK: "DEI research has never any diseases. It's never produced any new drugs."
RFK Jr. is a guy who was meant to commit a series of themed animal crimes in Gotham City with the ultimate goal to “eat the Bat” before being subdued and returned to Arkham.
He wants us to make sure we know he's not promising amphibious supersonic airliners.
If Trump were Howard Hughes, he'd let his cabinet focus on realistic goals like that instead of bombproof ballrooms.

After seeing the aftermath of Abdul El-Sayed asking Olivia Reingold what she meant by a Jewish state, I became convinced it's a question that should be asked more often. www.theatlantic.com/ideas/2026/0...

The UK Trans Experience: you can be arbitrarily included in a lawsuit that has nothing to do with you, be included in national coverage and have dozens of articles written about you, be found innocent of everything and still have journalists follow you to different countries to call you a pervert
sure it's a tool of social control and surveillance owned and operated by fascists, but it writes work emails for me. on balance who's to say it's good or bad

(10)(12) "Nudity," "nude," or "state of nudity" means the showing of the human male or female genitals, pubic area, vulva, anus, anal cleft, or cleavage with less than a fully opaque covering; or the showing of the female breasts with less than a fully opaque covering of any part of the nipple.
(12)(14) "Seminude" or "state of seminudity" means a state of dress in which opaque clothing covers not more than the genitals, pubic region, and nipple of the female breast, as well as portions of the body covered by supporting straps or devices.
In addition to the made-up category of "seminudity," HB 249 also expands the definition of "nudity" to include "cleavage" and uncovered "anal cleft"
I dunno. Maybe the journalist could have quoted the bill rather than bothsidesing it.

Media needs to stop with "critics say" and just quote the actual language of the bill.
HB 249 creates a new category of "seminudity" which can be used to arrest women who aren't nude, but are wearing clothing — leggings, t-shirts without bras — that religious groups feel is too provocative.
I heard some interesting tea yesterday that Hegseth asked the guys at RTB if they can just revoke every ranger tab issued since they supposedly lowered standards for women. Apparently he was shocked to learn this would affect thousands of soldiers including 75th boys.

I don't think non-Black people understand how much Black people calculating spaces as to whether they'd be hostile to Black people.
It's the same way I think men don't understand that women navigate spaces thinking about whether or not they'd be safe

Or is it supposed to protect the *likelihood* of proper behavior?
🇪🇺🏳️🌈⚖️🇭🇺 A legal earthquake - CJEU finds Hungary to have violated EU law on multiple counts with its anti-LGBT+ legislation (as expected) but also for the first time in history, in an EU law-reshaping precedent, finds Hungary to violate Art 2 TEU in a self-standing manner.

I'm so glad you're bringing a story like this to light. Cops kill so many people in mental crisis. It's why they are so dangerous as first responders for it & shouldn't be. I & other mad Black folks I know have had to be traumatized them in mental crisis. A lot of us become hashtags.
Magyar Péter (Ne féljetek) * ... @magyarpeterMP Until 31 May, the Orbán puppets may voluntarily step down from their positions. This applies to the President of Hungary, the President of the Curia, the President of the National Office for the Judiciary, the President of the Constitutional Court, and the Prosecutor General. On 12 April, the Hungarian people voted for a complete political transformation. If these officials do not step down voluntarily by 31 May, then - on the basis of the mandate received from millions of Hungarians — we will remove them from office.
Hungary’s Péter Magyar issues an ultimatum.
