i have plenty of thoughts on why it matters that this is an illegal order but here i’ll just comment that i think liberals who throw their hands up and say “it doesn’t matter” have self lobotomized themselves into thinking that trump is god king of america
Trump confirms that he plans to deport US citizens who have undocumented parents

Love this short video by J. Draper about a book from 1962 with extensive interviews of queer men at a time it was illegal in the UK.

Interesting perspective on how trans people were viewed at the time near the end, too!

Good. It’s horrific how other platforms abused their reach to strangle local, independent, and national outlets alike.

I WANT to see news and actual vetted work and I WANT journalists to get rewarded for it.

Because I want to live in a thinking human world over some AI generated slop dystopia

I just need you all to understand that when people say this what they really are saying is "being a woman is a sex thing"

White guy from a 90% white town steps into a restaurant bathroom with one other person, a black man, in it and thinks to himself "my god I never realized 50% of all people in America are black until just now"
This explains why conservative fear-mongering is such an easy play in America.

— Ppl believe trans ppl make up 21% of the population (Real number: 1%)
— Ppl believe Black ppl make up 41% of the nation (real number 12%)
— Ppl believe Jewish ppl make up 30% of the nation (Real number, 2%)

Software engineering absolutely can be creative, but a lot of large companies try and turn it into an assembly line rather than a creative endeavor and that’s a shame
I don't care what anyone says,

But software engineering is creative work.

That's it

that’s the right. when they say “meritocracy” what you should hear is “people with a natural right to rule”

Yep. This also explains the bizarre focus on linguistic changes.

A wealthy, middle-aged political pundit cannot imagine being forced to move states to access HRT but he can imagine someone scolding him about misusing they/them pronouns. It's anxiety and animosity all the way down.
this gets to the point i keep making. to the media elites who are obsessed with anti-wokeness, something like mass deportation is a total abstraction whereas they are annoyed, on a daily basis, by their supposedly “woke” younger colleagues and social media antagonists
Top point from @stephenkb.bsky.social on the weighting voters give to "woke" v real issues.

I really don't get how Democrats can be handed the easy layup of "Republicans are uniting to suppress the underage sex trafficking report about an unliked and unqualified nominee" and decide the best thing to do is minimize its importance.
Sorry, @hakeemjeffries.bsky.social, Trump’s cabinet is not a distraction, and the public has a right to the Gaetz report even if Republicans on the Ethics Committee decide to be partisan, and cover up a child sex trafficking scandal.
No, Trump's Cabinet Is Not A "Distraction"
They're cabinet secretaries, ffs!
