This response should be instant removal from his position. It is not just tone deaf, it tone deaf to the degree that it paints the company itself in a bad light. If the standard for toxicity is wide enough to include that statement than there is no standard at all.

Are they threatening trans users directly? No. Trans folks in the US have been targeted repeatedly. That's awful and you have my sympathy. Within the context of a single post we wouldn't consider it a direct threat or targeting a protected category. Ie send trans folks to concentration camps.

I am glad to welcome folks who have never been NFL fans to the "we hate Robert Kraft" club.

"the author of that harry potter story leads an insane cult that's captured much of the media in this country" is a different person if you're in the UK or the US

I'm just going to keep yelling this louder and louder until it clicks: weird overpaid AI nerds hand-wringing about human extinction are trying to distract you from the extremely deadly and serious harms they are causing yesterday, today and tomorrow www.bloomberg.com/news/article...

“AI will kill us all” is how the tech industry, especially rich people in it, avoid talking about real world problems—ones they’re causing, exacerbating, or neglecting—while still thinking themselves good. “I’m better than all that,” they say. “I got high with my friends and BSed about the future.”

lol its a bedroom community for a prison and the army. yeah that scans

The merits or demerits of the asylum seeker base aside, you might imagine from listening to the BBC that Piddington was an isolated rural village as opposed to already right next to HMP Bullingdon and a bunch of army bases.

Scotland: We want to leave the UK BBC: Huh? Wales: We want to leave the UK BBC: What? Northern Ireland: We want to leave the UK BBC: Lolz Some shithole in Oxfordshire: We want to leave the UK because racism BBC: REPORT THE HELL OUT OF THIS #Piddington

It's 1995, and you're one of the last employees at a video game hint line. And the calls have started getting weird. Hint Line '95, the sequel to the smash-hit art installation we made on a whim, just got funded by @screentasmania.bsky.social! www.screen.tas.gov.au/funding/appr...

Now that everyone has turned on Ed Sheeran I finally feel comfortable saying this: you shouldn’t be allowed to get a bunch of tattoos if you’re a musician who makes wuss music

A funnier person than me once said, "Adam Levine looks like he went to a tattoo parlor and said, 'Give me tattoos'"

Well if you don’t hear back, know I had to go out in west Oakland at night. Look for caretaker. Woke up from nap they, supposed to bring back cigs. Nobody picking up phone. Scared. Not eaten all day and scared to get food. Can’t without them back. Please help. Already been hungry all day

Ms. Rachel: "Ed Sheeran had an opportunity…Instead he caved to people who refuse to accept what the world knows." "If more than 20,000 white children were killed…everyone would be shouting…Treating some children's lives as less worthy of outrage is racist. Silence during a genocide is not neutral."

Jeff Bezos and I are very different people. For one thing, he is a sociopathic billionaire who built his fortune by monopolizing bookselling while I am a penniless author of books. He was born in 1964 and is 62; I was born in 1971 and am 55.

i'm going full truther here I think multiple regime-friendly outlets are passing off copy from the office as a near-catatonic senator's own words

I wrote last week that true journalism is the act of stopping powerful people from being able to blatantly lie unchallenged. This is what true journalism looks like: showing when the authorities are lying through their teeth.

EXCLUSIVE: When elected officials and advocates in Danbury, Connecticut, said ICE arrested a parent at a school bus stop Aug. 26, federal officials denied their accounts. I got video that appears to show such an arrest. My latest at @ctinsider.bsky.social — www.ctinsider.com/news/article...

Trump has only declared victory in the Iran war once this month. Concerning.

If you cannot be trusted to stand up for transgender Americans when they’re facing what some experts call a genocide, I don’t trust you to stand up for anything.

when you work at the BPAF but you’re beginning to realize there’s not going to be a successful IPO

it’s wild that the heritage foundation wrote in text that the assault on trans woman particularly in sports is their first step in their efforts to completely abolish all Title IX protections and liberals still don’t believe it’s about more than trans women in sports

Don't

my defining memory of the immediate aftermath of 9/11 was President George W Bush climbing onto a pile of skyscraper wreckage in Manhattan to rally shellshocked Americans with the inspirational message "go shopping or the terrorists win"

the news is bleak and there's a lot more work to do. this is what it looks like when a 500,000 people in Britain come together against division and against racism. it can be done because we did it.

amazing time at the Together march on Saturday! great level of support for trans+ liberation, but work still to do. SC protests last year proved that trans folks can bring mass action that ignites public support; we can achieve it here too so proud that 10+ people from our LGBT+ socials marched!
