As tens of thousands across America protest the violence that ICE sows with impunity, federal agents shot and killed another person in Minneapolis today.

ICE terrorizes our cities. ICE puts us all in danger. Abolish ICE.

AGI is coming for all of us. It will write symphonies, direct movies, and author the best novels.

The only thing it won’t be able to do is VC investing, which must be reserved as a task only for the most-special people

The upshot of this article, is that Musk is operating with no check on his power and impulses, Trump officials, GOP congresspeople, and even Trump himself are worried.

It’s genuinely shocking if you’re remotely familiar with the basic facts of trans care and youth medicine.

It is *profoundly* difficult to access gender-affirming care as a minor and the Times has printed more than a dozen articles implying that it is too easy.
in hindsight the NYT anti-trans crusade is one of the most despicable things that any big time journalism outfit in this country has ever done. a perfect and clearly intentional layup for the fascists on the Supreme Court

This is why feminism is never a side issue, never a distraction. This is why dismantling toxic masculinity & the structures that feed & recreate it is *vital* for democracy, justice, & the survival of the planet.
Just a little reminder that the South Korean president who just declared martial law was elected two years ago on a wave of anti-feminist backlash. Misogyny is routinely part of the authoritarian package.

I get why most people think about D.C. statehood in terms of two Democratic Senate seats, but for the residents of this colonial territory, the rest of the country can inflict its whims on us in a way no other actual state experiences, often to our detriment. That's why we need statehood.

It’s only really hitting me now that there’s literally no sexual assaults allegation that would derail any of Trump’s nominations at this point. Not one. It’s just expected that these guys are serial predators.
