I try to give what I can to donation drives, but I don’t make much money and I have to stop myself from really screwing things up here at home.

I’ll go on doing what I can to support Palestinian freedom with my body and voice. Please know, the ordinary people of the world are with you always.

Thank you @davemilbo.bsky.social for saying the awful truth that “Australian weapons components become weapons that turn Palestinian children into the components of Palestinian children”

The Prime Minister is lying to your face about selling weapons for Israel’s genocide - The Shot
The hairs Albanese is splitting are on the heads of murdered Palestinians. Australia is contributing to Israel's genocide of Palestine.

We can and should laugh about this but it's also been a pretty standard imperial move after drawing or losing a military showdown for about 3,000 years. Xerxes could call his invasion of Greece in 480-479 BC a success because he burned Athens.
Donald Trump’s attempt to bomb the Houthis into submission failed on every level. So, he declared victory.

Today marks the 3 year anniversary of the murder of Shireen Abu Akleh, a Palestinian-American journalist. Shireen was killed by an Israeli sniper on 11 May 2022 for the crime of exposing the brutality of the Israeli government in the Jenin Refugee Camp.

it’s just wild bc he’s a pedo-sheltering, queer-hating catholic american. as a candidate for pope, he represents an almost suicidal cowardice on the part of the church. but he’s got like, chuck schumer’s political backbone and even that’s too much liberalism for the whinging fucking yanks.

In just two months on the job, Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. has raised the profile of autism.

But many autistic people say Kennedy is perpetuating harmful stereotypes.

the reason why these people believe in “the woke mind virus” and think of others as “NPCs” is because they have literally fried their brains in private group chats with people who share the same half dozen opinions

We joke about Hegseth's signal chats, but the impact of his trite messages is horrific.

"as I began to write these lines, funerals were held for 80 people who were killed by a bombardment of the Ras Isa port ... Most of them returned to their families as charred bodies. Some did not return at all."
In Yemen, we comfort ourselves, thinking: It is not as bad as Gaza

Rafah no longer exists.

Israel has flattened an entire city to build a buffer zone and carve Gaza into military corridors.
This about permanent occupation and ethnic cleansing.

Rafah no longer exists. This is part of Israel’s plan to permanently occupy Gaza.
Israel has completely wiped out Rafah, turning a fifth of Gaza’s territory into a giant buffer zone. This is part of Israel’s plan to permanently remain in Gaza and ethnically cleanse its people.

The US government going after companies that manufacture HRT is a line that sensible, reasonable people repeatedly assured me Trump wouldn't cross.

He crossed it.

Ah well, nevertheless,
1. In a new leaked memo, Pam Bondi is directing the DOJ to go after trans care providers under "anti-FGM" laws.

She also has directed the investigation of HRT manufacturers.

She calls transgender people "infectious."

The latest from S. Baum.

RFK Jr. likely wants to do what his family did to Rosemary on a national scale. He wants to make it legal/standardized for "parents' rights activists" and quack doctors to torture autistic people with "treatments" and send them to "wellness camps."
Well. This is an alarming tidbit.
This bit is also fun

Anti-trans policies don't just hurt trans people. They hurt anyone who doesn't fit neatly into a pink box or a blue one. And they hurt the rest of us by creating pressure to ensure that we always fit neatly into our box.

It is startling how easily white liberals fall into proposing eugenics stuff without even noticing it.

Until you realize that the really vocal eugenicists *need* that broad centrist support. They couldn't do anything without it.
