"wages have been flat for decades" is an extremely simple, obviously true concept that explains about 80% of all handwringing op-eds and for some reason they just won't say that

I've watched liberals defang and destroy progressive movements my entire life. I'm older than I may look and have a long memory. My original post also applies to Hillary and Kamala Harris and John Kerry and Mike Dukakis dead enders.

I'm commenting on a liberal tradition, hoss.

“ugh why do you keep bringing it back to masks”

respirators are one of easiest, most efficient ways to make immediate change without doing much else—the action of breaking chains of transmission is a literal exponential benefit. an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure.

you can do this.

some masking—in grocery stores, pharmacies, transit, *medical settings*—is better than none; every chain of transmission broken matters.

At all times and across all channels - not despite how bad things are but because of it - the messaging says that you cannot even ask for what you need but if your owners desire it, you may live. And you are dependent on their largess.

Trans women are people who despite everything change ourselves.

The U.N. human rights office publicly defended Special Rapporteur Francesca Albanese after at least four European governments attacked her and called for her resignation over comments she never made. Marta Hurtado, spokesperson for the Office of the High Commissioner for Human Rights, said Albanese “did not characterize any state as an enemy of humanity. I invite you all to go see her remarks.” Hurtado added the office is “very worried” about escalating “personal attacks, threats and misinformation” targeting U.N. officials and independent experts, warning such campaigns distract from “serious human rights issues.” She then pointed to ongoing Israeli ceasefire violations in Gaza, the daily killing of Palestinians, and Israel’s failure to meet its obligations as an occupying power in the West Bank while undermining a two-state solution: “This is what we should be talking about.” @FranceskAlbs | @UNHumanRights Francesca Albanese, UN Special Rapporteur oPt @FranceskAlbs I am glad to see the UN human rights system defending my mandate. UN Special Rapporteur on the right to housing @adequatehousing UN rightly defends Francesca Albanese, my colleague, from attacks by some European States for a statement that she didn’t make. This shameful behavior must stop. Surely these States are better than this.

this is willful, blatant bigotry. you can't even claim this is in the interest of countering scams, because they're equating being in Gaza with being a spam bot

palestinian journalist posting on twitter that his bluesky account was immediately taken down purely because he was in gaza. all palestinian accounts are assumed to be spam.
Tamer Nahed 𓂆🇵🇸 @Tamer_Alnoaizy BlueSky is one of the worst platforms I have ever dealt with. Within seconds of creating a second account, after my first one was shut down just two days after it was created, my account was closed again. This happened despite the fact that I hadn’t posted anything or followed anyone. I was only in the process of adding a profile photo, yet I received an email claiming that my account was “spam” and that it was “causing harm.” What kind of logic is this? The painful truth is that the account was shut down the moment it became clear it was created from inside Gaza. It seems we are no longer allowed to write or speak about what is happening to us here. They are not afraid of content itself, but of our voices and the reality we carry with us. Millions are spent to silence these voices and to erase the truth. I am exhausted by this platform and by how our photos and videos, which document real suffering, are treated as “violations of community standards,” as if pain itself has become a crime. What is happening is not simple moderation or policy enforcement. It is an attempt to erase our existence and bury the truth. And honestly, this is shameful and unbearably painful. [the original poster has included two screenshots showing the email from bluesky admin informing him that his account has been taken down for being 'spammy, inauthentic or disruptive to users'. it's the standard boilerplate you get when they take moderation action.] 2:45 PM · Feb 10, 2026 https://twitter.com/Tamer_Alnoaizy/status/2021234178461704409

BTW IMO, an underrated element of transgender venom against Gavin Newsom is his cruelty to the homeless. I think general online Dem populations may see homelessness as an abstract issue whereas trans people are very likely to see it as a potential future or current reality for ourselves/our friends

I'm not asking for comfort, but to survive.

My children don't know what safety means; all they know is the sound of bombs.

My home is destroyed. My dreams are buried under the rubble.

If you don't help us today, when will you? Your support saves our lives.

Sama’a and three year old Julia standing in front of their home, totally collapsed from the bombs. Julia is in the front, facing left, holding onto a large gray fallen pole of some sort, wearing a pink puffy coat, denim pants and blue sneakers. Sama’a is wearing an oversized white shirt with Mickey Mouse on the front, with a black hooded shirt underneath that is pulled over her head, a black open zip up jacket, and jeans. She is looking into the camera with a meek smile and has her right hand in a peace sign, and holding hands with Julia, who is looking down but toward her mother. She wearing a pink puffy coat, denim pants and blue sneakers Sama’a standing in a bombed out building surrounded by rubble and dirt, holding her 5 month old daughter, Talia. She is wearing a Black hijab, a white sweatshirt with Mickey Mouse, and black pants. Baby Talia is swaddled in a white blanket, and wearing a white headband with a bow. Baha’a sets in their apartment, wearing a black sweatshirt. On his shoulders is 3 year-old Julia wearing a white fleece sweater with big pink hearts and pink fleece pants, her head resting on her father‘s head in his lap is baby Talia wearing a blue sweater and holding a bottle of milk that she is looking at 4 month old Baby Talia lying on her back over a white embroidered pillow. She is wearing a blue hooded sweater with a white cotton shirt underneath, and burgundy pants, holding a bottle of milk that is hiding most of her face. Her three year old sister Julia is lying next to her, her hand helping to keep the bottle steady. She is wearing a purple sweater and her hair is a mess of dark curls. Both girls are looking directly into the camera with big brown eyes.

Huda Ammori is scathing about Yvette Cooper, & rightly so. Cooper banned Palestine Action in order to protect companies supplying arms to Israel during a genocide, and in doing so attacked the rights of every single one of us. And all of it was unlawful.
