Bitch, Asheville is a blue college town and the county has gone blue for decades. I am so sick of this “if I pretend disasters only happen to red areas, it means I’m safe because I’m properly on the left!” No. You’re not safe. That’s why we save everybody.

Remember Mastercard and Visa blaming "banking partners"? If banks face repercussions their alibis could start crumbling as they get pinched between angry consumers and the feds

Holy shit. Remember the Trump debanking EO? The Office of the Comptroller of the Currency identified adult entertainment as one such industry facing unfair treatment from banks. This is huge

also always deeply funny that every sci-fi video game from 1999-2014 was trying to be Aliens, and copied everything except the...working class woman protagonist
Everyone imitates Tolkien all the time except when it comes to the one way it would really matter: making the protagonist of your novel for children a short, fat, 50-year-old man who doesn't want to do anything.

this joke plagues transphobes because it’s an incredibly cutting take on what the modern transphobic panic is, a hysterical panic based off of a lie that transness is fake and that there is an intentional effort from the right to prop up this wedge to destroy all LGBTQ rights

Amanhecemos com um shadow ban generalizado contra perfis de esquerda no Instagram.
Até o perfil do presidente está inacessível.
Shadow ban é uma punição a quem não se adequa à plataforma, então o recado da Meta é bem claro: a direita é amiga, a esquerda é uma ameaça.

Apparently there’s been an explosion of parvo cases in SoCal in the past handful of years between people adopting pandemic puppies and not vaccinating them, people falling off doing routine vet care during the pandemic, and “vaccines cause dog autism” people, so they’re just breeding SuperParvo now

congressional candidate @katmabu.bsky.social, who was federally indicted after an anti-ICE protest, is taking a unique approach to fundraising for both her campaign and legal battle: twitch streaming. so far, it's working
![Buerk said that Abughazaleh’s donors were the kinds of people who’d kick in hundreds of dollars, not thousands, and as a result, call time was not exactly pulling in money hand over fist.
“In the best of times, we would get $600 an hour [from call time],” she said. “The stream has obviously crushed that. Today we raised $12,000."
The FNAF stream lasted two hours and, thanks to a simple offer of a sticker featuring Abughazaleh’s cat for anyone who donated $10 or more, performed as well as 20 hours of call time. Even during lower-yield streams – the floor, so far, has proven to be $2,000 during a single broadcast – that’s still far preferable a fraction of the money for double, triple, or quadruple the work.
"Kat is busy at events,” said Buerk. “Kat is dealing with a lot of really insane, horrible things. She doesn't have time to be calling people and trying to convince them to donate for 40 hours a week."](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:5gdejlhcswjbzraadoltdpps/bafkreiev5vfq6o36yivaj74yzc63ehlec7zee7jznl2x6sim463fxfg46y@jpeg)

An experienced organizer I really respect once reminded folks "you can't always win, but you can always, always inflict a cost. Those add up."
You cannot match the size and resources of these organizations that are abandoning trans youth and sacrificing trans lives, but you have one advantage they do not: an ability to maintain a relentless focus upon them.
Make it your work, every week, to think about how you can punish them.
