Bluesky is now requiring 'age verification' in order to be able to access chat. The only way to do this is to give sensitive personal data to a third party provider in hopes they don't get breached. So fuck that.

Excellent 12-part Byline Times thread bringing together and linking to evidence of collusion between conflict-of-interests BBC hierarchy and external forces aligned with Trump.

Many names and organisations implicated in plotting to undermine, perhaps bring down the BBC - maybe even a takeover plot?
🧵On our revelations today about the BBC Coup and the Prescott Dossier.

The leaked ‘BBC Bias’ memo Trump used to attack the BBC was authored by Michael Prescott — a Hanover lobbyist paid by US tech/media giants tied to Trump. Full story: bylinetimes.com/2025/11/11/b... 1/12

Just finished reading the Collins amendment to HR 5371. It's a 99% by-the-book bill. The section amending the definition of hemp is the most egregious part of this bill, but it doesn't fit within Umberto Eco's definition of fascist.
It's a day off for Congress. Senate has gone home and the House is flying in tomorrow to pass the amended HR 5371. In the mean time, I'm reading the Collins amendment. So far, nothing fascist. Just bans on Dept of Ag people using funds to fly first class or building computer networks w/o porn blocks

It's really unfortunate that, if you look up land navigation skills or the like on YouTube, the entire zone is flooded with reactionaries dog-whistling about 'tricks the Rhodesians liked to use'. It would be good if we had comrades making that kind of instructional content.

Here's a partial list of suspected guilty parties. Call them if they're your senators, friends, right now.

John Fetterman, Angus King, Maggie Hassan, Dick Durbin, Jon Ossoff, Jeanne Shaheen, Kirsten Gillibrand, Catherine Cortez Masto, Mark Warner, Cory Booker, and of course Chuck Schumer. Maybe others not top of mind. Not all responsible will publicly vote for the cave - that's not how this works.

Okay, Ezra is confirming that he's hearing D senators are actually plotting to cave to Trump and end the shutdown WITHOUT any extension of the ACA, just a promise of a vote later down the line.

Democrats who have decided to throw trans people on the bus, whether by actively attacking them or simply refusing to defend them (or justifying the refusal to defend them) in the midst of this genocidal onslaught have stood up to be counted with fascists and should be treated no better.
A non-negotiable for Democrats in the 2028 primaries is that they must promise to expand and reform the court. The Supreme Court has lost all legitimacy to rule and it needs to be completely overhauled. Nothing less would be an abject failure and acquiescence to Republican ratfucking of the court.
SCOTUS has granted a stay in Trump v. Orr, the trans passport case, meaning that the government will be able to once again deny gender marker changes to trans passport applicants.

This is a terrible decision with horrifying consequences for trans folks.

The courts will not - indeed CANNOT - save us. The only way this or any similar abomination will be stopped is if we make sure that implementing it is more trouble than it's worth.
NEW: On the shadow docket, the Supreme Court lets Trump resume misgendering trans Americans on their passports, claiming "the government is merely attesting to a historical fact without subjecting anyone to differential treatment." All three liberals dissent. www.documentcloud.org/documents/26...

1. In a major shadow docket ruling from the Supreme Court, the court has ruled against trans people's passports, giving a stay to the Trump administration.

The admin has previously indicated it intend to revoke some passports if it got this ruling.

Until perhaps one day we'll all be gathered together sharing a moment listening to the laughter of children.
To look away, to say it doesn’t matter anymore, is to surrender to the death-making machine ravaging the world. Reject this.
