Teenagers are “too young” to make decisions on gender affirming care.

They’re “too young to vote”.

They’re too young to drink.

But they’re not too young to be sex trafficked and raped by Epstein and all his rich pals?

Be serious please.

Leave Google in the dust. They censor your searches, enable pedophiles and steal your data. Please stop using Google. There are plenty of other alternatives. Yes, it sucks having to change things. It’s inconvenient and takes some time. They count on you being too lazy to take them down.
Google is hosting CBP’s new facial-recognition app that helps police identify immigrants and alert ICE — while removing community apps that track ICE activity.

By shutting down tools meant to document abuses and approving tech that expands government surveillance, Google isn’t being neutral.

Every state needs to turbocharge its democracy reforms. Do what Seattle did and do democracy vouchers to counterbalance rich spending. Get ranked choice voting going. Reform primaries to be nonpartisan top 5 where all independents and third parties can vote. Automatic voter registration and mail-in.

I've been in the process of switching to Proton for some months now. It's a slog to be sure, if you're trying to do it manually vs an automated sync. My phone keeps overriding my changes to photo backup defaults bc I'm on android tho. 🙄
Google has now admitted that they will tap into users' personal data within Gmail and Drive in order for their upcoming AI search to "be more helpful".

For years, Google has advertised their services as "encrypted" and "secure", which begs the question: are they really?

When Covid caused NYC offices to hollow out what they found was that yeah the core business districts suffered but the neighborhoods where people actually live, thrived.

All WFH means is rethinking business districts, not cities.
if you cant go in to the office 3 days a week then you really can't complain when cities are hollowed out. cities are places where ppl work and network. getting rid of that makes cities useless
And it's usually something like "but that's not what the literal DNC does!" as if I don't know, as someone who has worked on Dem campaigns, sometimes in conjunction with the DNC what they do. So I'm going to be very specific here: this is the DNC being shitty: www.nytimes.com/2025/11/12/u...

Reminder that Starbucks’ CEO made 6,666x more than the company's median employee in 2024.

This was the widest CEO-to-Worker pay gap in the entire S&P 500.

And we're supposed to believe Starbucks can't afford to bargain a fair contract with its unionized workers?
As of this morning, Starbucks workers across the country are officially ON STRIKE. And we're prepared for this to become the biggest and longest ULP strike in Starbucks history.

Say #NoContractNoCoffee with us: DON'T BUY STARBUCKS for the duration of our open-ended ULP strike! $SBUX

Change the legal term from sex trafficking to rape trafficking, victims of trafficking cannot consent to sex while being trafficked. It is rape.

Let us be incredibly, abundantly clear:

We are demanding that Chuck Schumer resign for his continued betrayal of the American people.

If he does not willingly step aside, we are calling on the Senators in the Dem caucus to remove him and Dick Durbin from Senate leadership.
