Washington, D.C. is not just the government. There are over 700,000 people just like you who call it home. All people have the right to live in safe, peaceful neighborhoods.
But Donald Trump doesn’t care about other people, and he doesn't care about keeping other people safe.

A government-sanctioned "truth arbiter" will soon arrive at CBS. Their role will be to ensure that journalists do not criticize this Administration or express views that conflict with its agenda.
This is a betrayal—not just of journalistic independence, but of the public trust. 🧵

I can tell you right now: politicians on both sides of the aisle will see this election as a reason to never implement ranked-choice voting.
And for those saying his campaign should be replicated across the country: yes, that would be great!
But…
Without rank choice voting, how?
And with the chokehold AIPAC/Israel has on this country’s politics, how?

Today is the 10th anniversary of Obergefell and the constitutionalization of same-sex marriage into the American legal canon. Victories are to be savored- to be sure- but not taken for granted. The law is not necessarily a one-way ratchet. It takes work to secure wins and just as much to keep them.

As someone who read (iirc) the Kushiel trilogy in high school… no, absolutely not
A post just reminded me of this, and I am begging from the BOTTOM OF MY SOUL:
Folks have got to STOP reccing Kushiel to romantasy fans without serious content warnings. And also STOP reccing McCaffrey to Fourth Wing fans without *a whole lot of context* about consent & misogyny in SFF in the 70s.

As his troops slaughter civilians in Gaza, he claims to be standing up for Iranian women’s autonomy. He is far from the first warmonger to do so
