it humbles me to say this but since lots of subreddit mods have taken a stronger stance against fascism by banning links from X than the Democratic Party as a whole, i have no choice but to drop "reddit behavior (pejorative)" from my vocabulary

we had a great 8 years of it being acceptable to be publicly queer but the right tapped into their hysteria and are trying to push us back decades. this is why the left warned of relying on rainbow capitalism because their support was about profit above all else. the solution is for us to not hide
New: Meta has deleted trans and nonbinary Messenger themes, as well as the blog posts announcing them. Happens the same week that it has changed its rules to allow users to say LGBTQ+ people are "mentally ill"

I think probably the biggest problem with the resistlib poster bloc — largely older than millennials — is that the political ecosystem they believe they’re operating within straight up no longer exists

There is one thing this story doesn’t mention: HBO and Zaslav have already gutted Sesame Street. Its current iteration retains only a fraction of its soul and wit. It runs half the time, and often includes no new material whatsoever. It lost its spark a long time ago.
HBO has declined to renew “Sesame Street” for new episodes. The series that’s been teaching generations of little kids since 1969 now has no studio.

Please consider donating to Sesame Workshop to ensure the residents of 123 Sesame Street are still around to teach kids of all needs and backgrounds.

Such a horrible idea

“Create an AI and use it to swat teens”
Fucking cops man

"There are a lot of false alerts," Ryan West, chief of the police department in charge of the school of the 17-year-old, told the NYT. "But if we can save one kid, it’s worth a lot of false alerts."
Teenager is woken by police in the middle of the night.

“As it turns out, a poem she had written years ago triggered the alarms of a software called GoGuardian Beacon, which its maker describes as a way to ‘safeguard students from physical harm.’”

In 2018 Dems elected the largest class to Congress since Watergate, ~60 seats.

A lot of it was, yes, Trump backlash. But the winners also had another thing in common, despite a wide range of differences: most rejected corporate PAC money.

It’s a hugely compelling factor to voters & underdiscussed
I think the Dems need to field gruff corruption busters at all levels whose primary campaign response to culture war issues is “All Americans should enjoy the freedom and bounty of this great country. That won’t be possible so long as venal men impoverish you and loot the country of your wealth”

People are often surprised when I tell them this: both Twitter and Facebook/insta/threads are now specifically engineered to downgrade, hide, suppress real journalism. If this platform is different, that's a huge change
