We should convince them the rapture did in fact happen on tuesday and they were too sinful to go.

As a bit.
i guess if they don't disappear then they'll know they're all too sinful for heaven. maybe nihilistic calvinism is about to get a boom
Can't wait for the evangelicals to disappear on tuesday

Largest Trans Survey Ever: Top Reason Trans People Stop Transitioning Is Transphobia
“In almost every single case, the reason was anti-trans discrimination in the form of pressure to ‘detransition’ from one’s family, friends, or community.”

NEW: The Trump administration said their research did not "enhance health, lengthen life, or reduce illness."

Thousands of scientists disagreed.

I’ve said it before but it is embarrassing that so many intellectuals spent years in small factional battles over the propriety of calling this fascism.
In preparation for next week’s parade/demonstration, tanks are being moved into Washington, DC today. Unprecedented.

You can’t trust a news agency that doesn’t have its reporters’ backs. You have to assume they’re meddling with coverage of the admin in other ways. ABC is toast.
Notable clip today👇 in light of the news that the Trump administration successfully pressured ABC into suspending Moran
Reposting by request the exchange from Trump's ABC interview about Abrego Garcia's tattoos here on Bluesky 👇👇👇

TRUMP: He had MS-13 on his knuckles, tattooed!

MORAN: That was photoshopped

TRUMP: Terry, they're giving you the big break of a lifetime. I picked you. But you're not being very nice.

Reminder that defending porn is an absolute requirement for the right to free speech. you will lose all autonomy trying to scrub uncomfortable content.
so, in addition to KOSA & many other things, if you find the internet useful & don’t want to see queer people placed on the sex offender registry for being inherently pornographic, IODA is worth your 5 minutes & calls to your senators and house rep.

was recently told by a scholar of some note that it was out of bounds to compare trump's purge of black people from the federal government to wilson's efforts to resegregate the federal bureaucracy
1/2 Just-dismissed Librarian of Congress, Dr. Carla Hayden, has a PhD from U Chicago, is in numerous scholarly societies, has wide acclaim. She is also first African-American to lead LoC.

The dismissal note did not say "Dear Dr. Hayden" or "Dear Madame Librarian" or even "Dear Carla."

Breaking News: President Trump plans to accept a luxury Boeing 747 from Qatar that he will use as Air Force One and will keep using after he leaves office. The plan — involving possibly the biggest foreign gift ever received by the U.S. government — raises substantial ethical issues.

The fact of the matter is there are no standards for anti-trans pseudoscience. You could write "TRN R BAD" in crayons next to a drawing of a frowny face where the eyes aren't even inside the circle, and get published in a scientific journal with WaPo editorials saying "this is an important landmark"
