Personal account. Unions are good. Climate change is bad but we can fix it.

Abolishing ICE is the bare minimum.

We need to dismantle DHS. We need restitution. And we need trials.

I say this in all earnestness. The print edition of The Onion? That’s consistently the best thing I spend my money on every month.

If you aren't angry, you aren't paying attention. A woman was murdered by ICE in Minneapolis today. This should outrage us all. ICE out of our cities now. youtube.com/shorts/ecsmn...

"I'm calling to demand the immediate dismantling of ICE for the murder of a woman in Minneapolis today and the impeachment of the President for his support of that murder" is the easiest call to my senators and representative I've ever made

Might be same technology? How many ways can there be to deliver low level electrical current to the human body?

I think it’s interesting that during the course of the testing they did to get it cleared by the FDA they found a secondary albeit related use.

So obviously there’s a “har har taint zapper” aspect to this but Victoria did great, deep reporting on the journey this medical device took to get from demo booth to market. It’s important that stuff like this be reviewed and cleared by the FDA! You don’t want unregulated taint zappers!

The White House is laser focused on threatening a military takeover of Greenland.

Where’s the same focus on lowering costs?

I’m a little surprised that Meta hasn’t touted the fact that their social media platforms that integrate AI/LLM stuff *don’t* have CSAM on them

Feels like a layup

Trump's obsession with making Greenland part of the United States because it looks big on a map and is colored differently from the states is a classic case of Mercator Projection

I just watched the X-men teaser and like…hell yes, Patrick Stewart and Ian McKellan together for probably the last time but also…for what? Are they going to have a real role or is it just going be them dying onscreen 10 minutes in?

Avengers: Doomsday is either going to be 11 hours long or we are going to get “blink and you’ll miss it” cameos from all of these stars right before they get obliterated by Doom

We can’t let them whitewash history. Five years later, they’re still attacking our Constitution and our democracy.

A baby step could be this kind of escrow for state employees (which CA has a lot of). They still pay their taxes - it just goes into the escrow account - and is held to until federal obligations are met

“Debate me” rhetoric begs you to enter an argument because then there will be two sides.

I get tempted! To argue *why* therapy is good for men. And that’s a trap!

No. To argue why is to cede ground.

Therapy works.
Vaccines save lives.
Trans people are people.
