Some in the media still claim that Trump is purely transactional, with no guiding ideology to speak of. They can only claim this because they refuse to recognize white supremacy as his guiding ideology.
Breaking: Lonnie Bunch, the head of the Smithsonian Institution, is stepping down, @kelseyables.bsky.social reports. His departure comes amid months of clashes with the White House.

I’m going to open a small amount of slots again in a few days! Lily has a vet appointment soon and I’m pretty sure it’ll just be a standard check up, but it would be nice to make a little extra to cover the cost anyway
I'm opening up a few slots for shippy sketches and finished commissions on my vgen! It's my first time using the site as an artist so please be patient with me :)

Trans people have been around your whole life. You’ve been sharing bathrooms with them your whole life. They’ve been in your communities your whole life. They’ve even been playing sport your whole life.
And you didn’t care *at all* till a few years ago when every right wing org decided you should

This is why ppl actually acknowledgeable in industries... publishing, gaming, biotech, etc... are literally ignored when they say "That's dumb. That makes no sense, and no one will buy that." re: startups.
There is no intent to EVER get something to customers. That's some other guy's problem.

That’s a really important point! One of the big reasons that technology sucks these days is that the public is no longer the real customer. Instead, the true business model is about attracting investors or seeking the whole business to a vastly wealthier competitor.

One reason Republicans are banning books and classes on race is because reading even one book about Jim Crow or Reconstruction makes it clear that they are hoping to reinstate segregation.
Wow. Chaos on the Tennessee House floor. Tennesseans yelling in the gallery and Democrats locking arms in one final stand, as Republicans vote to advance new congressional maps that will carve up the state’s only majority-Black congressional district.

Transphobia is a cancer of the heart and mind.
It is a useless fear, based on ignorance and cruelty.
Trans people are not responsible for a single one of the problems we face.
Do the world a favor and grow the fuck up.

This didn't happen. The perception that it did is largely based on fictional shows that were about rich people. Much more common was a household where one person (theoretically Dad in a het household) was the higher earner and paid the housing costs and the other paid utilities & food
Just ONE generation ago, our fathers could support an entire family on a single paycheck.
Afford homes, buy cars, raise kids, family vacations, and retire with pensions… all on ONE middle-class salary.
Today? Two incomes barely cover rent in most cities.
