“We are committed to teaching students how to think not what to think” says a university that backed someone who literally did not do the basic assignment and also is supposed to be teaching these people WHAT PSYCHOLOGY IS.
literally fuck anyone who doesn’t see at this point that it’s an organized nationwide effort to make trans people unemployable.
every trans person they push out of public life is a win for them & a whole hell of a lot of cis people need to start stepping up and saying fuck off to freaks like this.

An Oregon pilot program giving cash to homeless youths sees a staggering reduction in homelessness. The program gave participants $1,000 cash payments each month for two years, and at the end of the project's first phase, 91% of participants reported being in stable housing.

My partner and I are a writer and a potter and both neurodivergent queers, so this is just a completely outrageous invasion of our privacy and you’ll hear from my lawyer if I can find her card.
Twitter accounts are based in Russia. BlueSky accounts are based in homes with, frankly, too many books, plants, obsolete cables, and pieces of rustic pottery, that could do with a bit of a tidying up, to be honest.

Friendly reminder that striking workers are asking you not to patronize ANY Starbucks store.
If you're traveling this week, your airport definitely has other options. Zero reason to even think about crossing a picket line!

Ah, yes, undocumented immigrants are well known for being flush with cash to purchase whole houses.
Definitely not because corporations keep buying up huge swaths of housing and many people keep buying second homes to rent for “passive income”.

JD Vance: "A lot of young people are saying housing is way too expensive. Why is that? Because we flooded the country with 30 million illegal immigrants who were taking houses that ought by right go to American citizens."

Amazing that people are worried NYC’s mayor will be the embarrassing face of the Democratic Party
Reporter: What do you say to your colleagues who say this isn't a fight, this is a capitulation?
Shaheen: We have a guaranteed vote by a guaranteed date…
Reporter: There is no guarantee that this will become law.

JD Vance has excused the leaked racist messages from the young Republicans group chat as “kids being kids” and “just mistakes.” But who really gets to be a kid in this country? And what kinds of kids are allowed to make mistakes?

seen a recent increase in leftist anti-covid-prevention takes. all i’m gonna say is I know people who’ve got long covid, they’re not making that shit up, and they feel utterly abandoned and betrayed by society. if you don’t know someone like that, you will someday. be safe out there, pals!
