The phrase "professional activist" is functionally meaningless. It's a term that politicians and corporate targets have used for generations to discredit anyone who's effectively challenged them. Anyone who deploys it in earnest to discredit deeply committed people is broadcasting their ignorance.

Hate to say it, but we all have a new responsibility. I don't like it any better than you do. We have to make a good faith effort to find out if videos or images are real before we share, and delete if we find out after the fact that we shared AI.
It sucks.
It sucks.
Stop sharing AI videos like they are real!!!!

Here are the 28 Dem Senators who voted to advance the first federal ban on trans athletes & a federal definition of sex that would make trans & intersex people non-existent: Angela Alsobrooks (MD), Tammy Baldwin (WI), Richard Blumenthal (CT), Lisa Blunt Rochester (DE), Chris Coons (DE), ->
By a vote of 76-23, S 1071 passes the motion to proceed to the motion to concur. Won't know who voted for this until the roll call is uploaded, but safe to say it passed with the support of at least 24 members of the Democratic caucus. (Rand Paul probably voted nay and Steve Daines has been absent).

Trans people need to be careful about talking about DIY. Yes talk about it in the general sense, quote the facts and figures but be careful. Don't give away sources to cis folks. Don't talk to journalists about the details. They're coming for it.

I dunno, the size of the No Kings crowds yesterday made me feel slightly less hopeless? That morale boost isn't necessarily worth all the effort, but why take away that one positive morale boost by pointing out the obvious?

The teeny tiny No Kings things in very red areas are so huge
Say like five or six people show up. None of them knew each other before. Suddenly they’re all friends. And maybe from that you get a group that does longer-term organizing that can punch *way* above its weight considering where it is

Democrats seem to believe that they can turn a big dial that says "transphobia" up and down with no consequences. But all they're doing is bolstering a fascist drive to wipe trans people off the face of the earth. It's disgusting and shameful and it needs to end www.thenation.com/article/poli...
The Right Wants to Exterminate Trans People. Liberals Are Helping.
After the assassination of Charlie Kirk, the conservative movement has accelerated its war against trans people. And too many centrist Democrats have kept up their trans bashing.

When I see people online, even in jest, suggest that people living in Republican-controlled states should be abandoned because of their politicians, I feel a deep heartache. New York CREATED Donald Trump and none of y’all are ever talk about it the way you disparage Alabama or Mississippi.

Out of all the awful bullshit policies, I'm actually least upset about renaming it the Department of War
Let's do that, actually. Let's get real uncomfortable with it. Let's talk about how much more we spend on the War Budget instead of health and education

one of the most consistent things I find in history is that if someone is really famous for something other than being an anarchist, their anarchism will be stripped out of basically every reference to them.

The thing about accepting Newsom's depravity against trans people or the homeless on the grounds of "Yeah, that's bad, but we have to beat Trump or it'll be worse." is that by accepting it, you mark it as acceptable, both within your mind and in the larger world around you.
