Cows experience joy, loneliness, frustration, fear, and pain just like the dogs and cats who share our homes. Despite this, the meat industry subjects them to unspeakable cruelty, abuse, neglect, and violent deaths.

They fired every Black woman at Teen Vogue and every trans staffer.
It is astonishing watching the American media ecosystem just falling like dominoes, bowing its knees to fascism.

thank you for all the support; the statement from our union is now live here with some more reporting.
now that this is public I can confirm that the majority of today’s layoffs were women of color. there are no longer any Black women working at Teen Vogue.

Teachers should refuse to go back to work, and every single union member in Alberta should walk off the job with them.
Using the NWC to bust unions means that this government can never be trusted to do anything in good faith ever again.

Ireland just chose compassion over cruelty by electing Catherine Connolly, an independent socialist who fights for women, LGBTQ+ people, carers and people with disabilities. In a world sliding into far right hate this landslide gives me hope. #Aras25 🇮🇪🌈

According to @policyalternatives.ca, 59% of the Liberals’ public sector cuts will fall on women.
If Carney wants to regain the trust of women after forcing flight attendants at Air Canada back to unpaid work, why won’t he reverse these devastating cuts?

Let’s be clear. Trump's arrest of Judge Dugan in Milwaukee has nothing to do with immigration.
This latest attack is about one thing: unchecked power.
It is time for my colleagues in the Republican Party to stand up to his growing authoritarianism.

BIG WIN: Voters in Wisconsin have elected Susan Crawford to the state Supreme Court, securing a pro-equality majority on the court.
Not only does this win help protect LGBTQ+, reproductive, & voting rights in WI, it also sends a clear message: We won’t let Elon Musk buy our courts.
