Truly fuck all these people. Anyone willing to throw trans people under the bus can't be trusted to have integrity on any other issue and also THROWING TRANS PEOPLE UNDER THE BUS IS ALREADY A DEAL BREAKER, fuck anyone who doesn't stand with trans people.

Vote Democrat! They're the heroes fighting fascism. All you gotta do is sacrifice trans people. And immigrants. And homeless people. And Palestinians. And people who oppose genocide. And the environment and last hopes of mitigating the worst of climate change. There's more but I'm out of characters.

You can’t have it both ways. You can’t be “It’s simple math, vote blue no matter who, grow up” and ALSO believe you are fighting fascism by making calculations as to who’s expendable. The world we’re in now demands more from us. More from everyone.

I knew this book was going to be excellent because @vickyacab.bsky.social 🫶 but I honestly was not prepared for just HOW good it is. I went in with a decent amount of knowledge and already agreeing with the premise, yet still learned a lot. Give this to your liberal and moderate friends especially!

Transgender people deserve to have a nice life. That is the entirety of the argument. If you disagree, you’re saying that you do not believe in liberty or justice for all.

Once you've granted the idea that it's dangerous to allow trans kids to play organized sports, you're already 99% of the way to agreeing to bathroom bans. You've stipulated to the transphobes' central argument.

I wrote about the empty legacy that Charlie Kirk left behind. It turns out, no matter how many fireworks his wife sets off, the racist podcaster who made a living yelling at college kids was not the second coming of MLK. Happy Kirkmas everyone!
Charlie Kirk Left No Legacy
Like the AI song that bears his name, Charlie Kirk’s life was nothing but slop.

imagine an orphan crushing machine. i hate the machine and i hope we can dismantle it. but if the man who helped build the orphan crushing machine falls into it? buddy i’m gonna crack a smile.
The predictable Discourse is starting and I'm going to take a strong stand here: you can both want to abolish ICE and laugh really, really hard at Milo Yiannopoulos getting arrested by ICE after a decade of stoking the ethnonationalist hatred that led us to this point

there is no such thing as "age verification."
All "age verification" is actually "identity verification."
You can coat it in glitter and "privacy-preserving" wrapping paper.
But in the end, mandating age verification means mandating surveillance be built into software and hardware.
Period.

Was thinking about an educator I know who used to be so passionate about things like plagiarism and academic honesty. Once genAI started showing up everywhere, they jumped on the train, shifting to how to use genAI in classroom. 🙄 They "recognize there are concerns" but never address those concerns.
