"If you want to know how it feels to have slaves, in the modern world – and not be blamed openly for this desire – visit Dubai. But know that you will not be blameless for doing so. Every Instagram post, every TikTok video, every gloating WhatsApp message sent from its luxury is an abomination."

Caring about awards is stupid and a waste of time // Ngũgĩ never winning the Nobel is a one man damning of the institution. Rest In Power.

This kid is 15, and so has a moral clarity and uprightness that no adult elected official would or could ever have. There aren't really and never have been two sides of this issue, but if it has to be argued as a binary thing I don't see how anything less than this could seem like the side to be on.
this is a letter to the editor from a high school track runner who came in second to a trans girl in a race. her state house rep in maine started talking about it. so she wrote this: www.pressherald.com/2025/05/14/r...

Sick of seeing arguments about the inefficacy of collectively turning off the money faucet to someone who has personally funded global efforts to strip away the already-precarious rights and safety of trans folks. If you want to live that life, do it away from me and stop wasting time equivocating.

1. There's people in "flyover" states who can be won over to do better despite prior grotesque rhetoric merely by being faced with human cost of their ideals.
2. Good policy isn't built on compromising a minority's rights, but on creating a dialogue to secure rights for all.

We can quibble about the placement of each item but the original sin here is the very existence of this graph. Why on earth would a news organization rank social issues like they're weapons in an RPG?
Of course the NYT sees the "DEI" stuff positively & is neutral on anti-trans discrimination

I will never stop being mad about how the media has treated the anti-trans movement as a group of ordinary people with legitimate concerns rather than the obvious frothing bigots they are.
ABC White House correspondent just released ANOTHER anti-trans EO expected that we did not cover in our piece this morning:
A federal ban on funding to programs that acknowledge and affirm transgender people.

Why now? Why not any other time in the last 4 years? Why not when you were vice president? Why not push for this at any time in your 53 year long career in politics? Better late than never. At least the man can die outside of a jail cell he never belonged in.

Of the genuine belief that David Lynch is one of the most important American artists to live. Struggling to think of someone who so completely changed the medium they worked in; not to mention his influence in games, books, etc. it’s really him and Jimi Hendrix.

David Lynch gave us the language we needed to better articulate the indescribable strangeness of our shared reality. “Lynchian” is so overused because it’s a viscerally understandable word without any known synonyms. I can’t imagine a more beautiful artistic legacy than that.
