NEW: Regarding the claims that Rep. Max Miller withheld his toddler's "blue bunny," I have some new screenshots suggesting there was a pattern of Miller not giving the bunny back. There were pleas from multiple people on multiple dates. (Thread: 1/8)

I'm looking to speak with LGBTQ+ WNBA fans about their thoughts, feelings and responses to Sophie Cunningham's comments on trans athletes and the league's response thus far for a story @19thnews.org. My DMs are open and I'm ready to listen! 👂🏀

Kevin is not exaggerating, VDARE was not white nationalist in the sense of "well if you get right down to it the modern GOP has always been white nationalist" VDARE was white nationalist in the sense of "yeah those Nazis sure are white nationalist"

Gonna go out on a limb here and say racist cranks who write for extremist white nationalist websites like VDARE should not, in fact, be confirmed to top roles in the Department of Justice.

British media trying to pull a Charlie Kirk over a dead racist pedophile wife-beater is just more proof that ruthlessly and brutally denazifying British news media is going to be important.

Don't piss on my leg and tell me it's raining. Your guidance literally enforces discrimination and encourages harassment of trans people, using the same bigoted BS that gay people like me grew up with being aimed at us. It's disgraceful, and you people are utter, utter, scum.

If SCREEN were to pass, you'd be required to scan your face and upload an ID to access this site because it allows "harmful" material. This affects you even if you don't care about sex work or porn.

Mike Lee's SCREEN Act, which heads to Senate Commerce Committee for markup on Wednesday, would expand age verification requirements to a nearly limitless scope of websites, and is supported by the architects of Project 2025.

‼️ACTION ALERT: The Senate Commerce Committee is holding “kids safety” circus again, this time considering both KOSA (the Kids Online Safety Act) & SCREEN Act, two of the most dangerous censorship & age verification bills on the table! CALL YOUR LAWMAKERS & TELL THEM TO OPPOSE 📲 248-331-8665

The image is a graphic poster with a vibrant red background and contrasting dark purple text. At the top, it contains the message: “Senate Commerce Committee is taking up KOSA + SCREEN Act THIS WEDNESDAY” in bold white letters. Below this, in a larger, informal handwriting-style font is the phrase “TAKE ACTION” in yellow. At the bottom of the image is a phone number, “248-331-8665,” displayed inside a rounded rectangle in dark purple. The overall layout is eye-catching and designed to attract attention to the call for action regarding legislation.

Bluesky CEO has an easy and obvious go-to line for this question: "Bluesky is welcoming to everyone who pays attention to our rules and terms of service". This is neutral and inoffensive. For some reason every Bluesky CEO feels compelled to wax rhapsodic about how they actively want Nazis.

Following Rod Liddle's death I've been thinking again about the often unacknowledged privilege in being able to see the words of a demagogue as just things you disagree with rather than things that threaten people.
