on the one hand trans people are human beings who deserve the same rights as everyone. on the other transphobia plainly turns a person into a intolerable freak who alienates their friends and family bsky.app/profile/luck...
I keep saying it, and saying it, and saying - cis people, if you are a trans ally we need you to stand up for us, visibly and loudly and constantly. It's no longer enough - for anything, but especially trans rights - to assume that the default position is supportive, because it just isn't.
this is a key point. various elite centrists and liberals have become radically pilled on transphobia (likely on Vichy Twitter) and joined the right-wing exterminationist crusade

I have a cold that's knocked me on my butt, and it's been so long since I got sick regularly that I nearly forgot my patented cure! Pumpkin pie, hot cider with bourbon, as much as you want in an evening.
I swear it's worked for real, at least once, but either way it's a win.

You need the third category...Nintendo.
To heal our divided nation I propose splitting Game of the Year awards into two categories:
- Game of the Year That’s 3D and You Use a Sword and/or Gun to Explode a Guy
- Game of the Year That’s Some Gay Bullshit Indie Meditation on Grief or Whatever

I think we can safely say that the Leavitt's brother called ICE on his ex, the mother of his child, and I have to say: I have no desire to respect, find common ground or share the country with these monsters.
“After Ferreira was detained, Dos Santos Rodrigues said Michael Leavitt Sr. and his father, Bob Leavitt, reached out to her.”
“‘They just kept saying, ‘Tell her to self-deport,’” she recalled. “Self-deport to where? Brazil is not her home.’” www.bostonglobe.com/2025/11/26/m...

The story told here--one where anecdata suggests agency and autonomy have run amok and nameless activists are to blame--certainly rhymes with the NYT's disastrous panic about trans kids. Then you realize it's literally being written by the same author.
Autism rates have increased in recent decades, but the reasons are more complicated than what Robert F. Kennedy Jr. has presented. Hear more on today's episode of "The Daily." nyti.ms/480eqtm

Hell yeah, shout out to women
In 2021, the Seattle Police Department signed the 30x30 pledge, aiming to increase the recruitment of women to 30% by 2030.
Despite a targeted campaign, SPD's recruitment of women this year didn't top 10%. www.divestspd.com/p/women-dont...

welcome news for once. It was wild to me that the airlines were willing to risk torching their reputations (such as they were) for a shockingly small amount of money
NEW: US airlines (Delta, United, American, etc) will shut down a program in which it sold hundreds of millions of your flight records to government agencies, including ICE, FBI, ATF, more. Comes after intense lawmaker-pressure and 404 Media's months-long reporting

a big runoff last night, in New Orleans:
Calvin Duncan was exonerated after spending *28 years* in prison; he tried to get his own case records from the New Orleans city clerk—but the office dragged its feet.
So Duncan ran to become city clerk himself, and yesterday ousted the incumbent.

collective memory is something you have to work at constantly, and the persistent drumbeat of land acknowledgements is an extremely valuable way to produce widespread consciousness of basic material fact of dispossession and genocide
my wokest opinion is that land acknowledgements are fine. people knowing a little bit about the land you're on, even if one isn't invested in a land back project, is not particularly worse than the status quo, even if one comes by this info in a way that is somewhat cringe and forced
"my least woke opinion is---"
That's enough. We've had enough people indulging in the "thrill of a little conservatism", as a treat. Of considering reactionary thought to be a salacious and taboo in a world descending into reactionary mania.
Give me your MOST woke opinions. We're bringing it back.
