Hey, fellas, before you write that white hot take about how rape is such a tricky thing and, I mean, who can really say what happened and, you know, maybe we should not be too judgmental, I'd like to remind you that instead you can simply shut the fuck up.

Governor Abigail Spanberger quietly ended a rulemaking process initiated in the waning days of former-governor Glenn Youngkin’s administration. The rule would have limited transgender students' ability to play sports and use facilities.

Spanberger quietly kills Youngkin-era transgender rulemaking effort

Doug Ford standing up for Ontarians against the U.S. by demanding teachers only buy from an American corporation because there can’t be any Canadian companies teachers can purchase anything from, eh?

American corporation Staples is charging Ontario teachers more for resources than they charge the general public, this comes as the Ford Government has forced teachers to buy resources from Staples. We are paying more for students to get less. #ontario #onpoli #dougford #onted #frankdomenic🍁

This is truly awful, exhaustingly aweful, I just hope the election in the fall turns the tide against the fascist white supremacist executive or the US will continue to devolve into an authoritarian hell hole
We are a broken nation. Hundreds of thousands of Haitians were living and working legally, paying taxes, and contributing. Haiti remains wholly unsafe.
But Trump hates Haitians, and the White House wanted videos of Black people in chains, so they stripped them of status and turned on the cameras.

Fourteen years ago, HBO's 'The Newsroom' laid out the truth about voter ID in this segment.
It’s striking how little the arguments — or the tactics — have changed. Still a solution in search of a problem.

The Democratic Party has let a consulting industry exploit elderly donors in its name, wreck its reputation and finances in the process, and walk away rich whether the party wins or loses. When a mirror is held up, the instinct is to break the glass rather than look.

A 2,000 foot chunk of glacier snapped off and dropped 4,000 feet in Nepal.
The flash flood killed 98 people. 391 tourists are missing. 47 Americans unaccounted for.
19 bridges gone.
This isn't a natural disaster. This is climate breakdown.
