When you are feeling weary or despairing, remember that there are people in every corner of the world taking life affirming action in the direction of more justice. The fact that you can't see it all is a comfort because it means there is an excess of positive actions happening all at once. #onwards

Ask me about anti-doxxing and anti-harassment protocols
New, from me: A Brown student built an AI-powered harassment machine of university staff. When the university investigated (and cleared) him, he was presented as a free speech victim. He became a right-wing celebrity, which was his goal all along. 🧵

one of the reasons to ban airbnb rather than try to regulate it is that they respond with millions of dollars of campaign spending against anyone who proposes regulating them.
The company has spent nearly $700,000 on elections around The Bronx, including six figures boosting Elsie Encarnacion in a crowded race where they’re not the only group spending a lot to boost a candidate.

Worth noting that this is also what the UK government review found, it just ignored all the evidence in its conclusions.
The Utah Report shows exactly what the people commissioning it didn’t want to see, that gender affirming care works.

"Scientific insiders." You mean...scientists? The people who do science and understand it? I'm not saying they're beyond suspicion, but when I look at the US over the past 20 years, I do not have the impression that our major problem is that _scientists_ have too much power.
Utterly psychotic. RFK's "unfounded beliefs and suspicions" are what separate him from legitimate critics of science and public health, he fucking lies all the time!
You can't say "he might have a point" about the parts you agree with and ignore everything else.

i do not think the mainstream press is equipped or capable of covering ideological white nationalists and eugenicists as such, or even capable of noting that this is what they are. it is related to the wide belief that racism is simply a matter of manners.
It would appear CNN was also at the eugenics conference? Why are all these mainstream news orgs at a 200-person event where all the speakers are eugenicists and racists? www.cnn.com/2025/04/11/u...

This is one of the closest Nazi parallels the Trump White House has yet announced. I know because I actually saw a recreation of the original 1937 Nazi “Entartete Kunst” (Degenerate Art) exhibit at the Smithsonian in 1991. They assembled 200 of the original 650 works. It was a sight to behold.
