Feeling overwhelmed with all of this. LISTEN. Another Louisiana resident (Marshawn is the only name we have) testifies against the state’s racial gerrymander, speaking truth to power up and down the hearing room and predicts how this story will end. Speak your truth, fight and believe.

hey everyone wanna see what a manufactured hate campaign is shaped like???
Dr Panti Bliss-Cabrera@pantibliss.bsky.social · 11mo agoTrans 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
I hope she is sitting in her mold castle having just the worst day because of this
Alejandra Caraballo@esqueer.net · 3mo agoJK Rowling is now represented by a trans person in the Scottish parliament. Absolutely incredible.
On this day in 1933, Nazis raided the Magnus Hirschfeld library in Berlin. The world’s greatest collection of LGBTQ books and scientific papers were looted and later burned, erasing decades of research into sexuality and gender identity. ‘Where they burn books, in the end they will burn humans too’.
I honestly suspect that he vacillates like this in order to push what people will accept as a norm. The news cycle has moved on from him kidnapping the president of Venezuela, or threatening to invade Greenland, or colonizing Palestine or— it’s not distraction. It’s abuser behaviour.
You have more in common with the people of Iran than you do with anyone in this administration, any member of the technocracy, anyone who is profiting from this war, or any billionaire. When you see Iranians forming human chains outside key infrastructure sites, you should feel a sense of kinship.
To whoever did this at the #NoKings in Boston: Thank you.❤️ It made me tear up. And we must to be reminded of needless damage to humanity that results directly from the careless, bellicose bluster coming from the Pentagon and White House.
As an IR professor, it's depressing that this is outperforming all others as the best theory of US foreign policy
Keep saying "slop" in reference to AI. At every opportunity. The techbros are listening, and this word makes them so sad on the inside that they'll hoist themselves on their own Streisand Effect petard.
Koffie Kobold - Gnollsome Adventures!@bemusedbehemoth.bsky.social · 5mo agoLmfao this is so fucking sad 😂😂😂
Seriously it's hilarious to me, the line on LLMs is "this is progress! you can't stop it!" from the same people who are trying to eliminate every gender transition surgery and, uh, the concept of the computer. Well, *you* think things can be de-invented! Let's de-invent the search engine that lies.
It's pretty amazing to me the amount of shit that apparently you can Just Do as an NYC mayor. It makes basically every other American politician look like an incompetent loser. What do you mean there was just a button that reversed wage theft? Why wasn't and isn't everyone hitting it all the time??
edith@edithcharles.bsky.social · 6mo agoIncredible contrast between this and Keir Starmer running a delivery driver over
All in all I'd have to say I don't enjoy being ruled by semi-literate perverts with infinite money
stop using AI to do your research. it hallucinates too often. if you want an answer to something, post something arrogant on the appropriate subreddit. something like: "this item performs 10% better than everything else. only idiots deny this." this will bait nerds into doing your research for you.
we’re not getting hit with the imperial boomerang so much as we built an automatic imperial boomerang-throwing device and loaded thousands and thousands of boomerangs into it
Solidarity, particularly across race and class, is Kryptonite for authoritarian regimes. They can only thrive when their us v. them framing is adopted by society at large, and they join as active or passive collaborators with the regime. So the only response they have is to raise the cost of unity
Greg Sargent@gregsargent.bsky.social · 6mo agoThey are telling us in unequivocal terms that if you show solidarity with immigrants who are in the literal crosshairs of Trump/MAGA, you're risking a death sentence. newrepublic.com/article/2055...
They wheeled this Nazi asshole into court in a wheelchair and he was still trying to hide his face in shame 76 years after World War II ended. That's the kind of commitment I'm looking for.
Ex-Nazi guard, 101, sentenced for role in 3,500 murders
He was sentenced to five years in prison for serving at the Nazis’ Sachsenhausen concentration camp.

Not exaggerating when I say that the collective action in Minnesota will be studied for generations if not centuries to come
One of the things about people showing up to protest for the first time, that many, many armchair theorists don't grasp, is the effect of seeing what happens with your own eyes, then seeing how media covers it, and what is said ABOUT YOU by media and political personalities/office holders.

I am not a Christian of course but like all Americans I have spent my life marinating in Christian mythography, and so around this time of year I have a lot of thoughts about the Nativity and the part where the innkeeper says there's no room in the inn.
Lots of people sharing this clip because it's funny and cathartic but I also genuinely believe it's important. We have to win the narrative battle between "I live in a corrupt society and that's just how it is" and "I live in a corrupt society and we are going to defeat and humiliate these ghouls."
