Crazy cat person, female-presenting non-binary Ace in NY State, accepts any pronouns except for "it". Mostly left-ish, anti-fascist, atheist grammar pedant who loves word games. #GenerationJones.

Confirmation from Trixie with @indivisrockland.bsky.social that there were, in fact, over 1,000 people in attendance.

Hard to overstate how bonkers that turnout is for Nanuet.

AAARRGHHH! I keep seeing this!

"Boarders" are people who rent rooms in other people's houses.

"BORDERS" are what people cross to get into a country.

That's right up there with lightening/lightning.

Boosting the signal.
We’re asking all retired US military flag officers to reach out to us at contact@americanopposition.org. We’d like to organize a military commission to engage with current military leadership on next steps if the Trump administration chooses to ignore federal court orders.

I just learned about this today from the DEI group in the company in which I work.

Texas has sued to get rid of Section 504. It was recently updated and Texas doesn't like some of the updates, so they sued to get rid of all of it, and 16 other states are joining in.

The comments are gold.
An unelected shadow government is conducting a hostile takeover of the federal government.

DOGE is not a real government agency.
DOGE has no authority to make spending decisions.
DOGE has no authority to shut programs down or to ignore federal law.
DOGE’s conduct cannot be allowed to stand.

I would like to speak up today for the trans community.

You see, I know a bit of what it’s like to be politically scapegoated. When Japan attacked Pearl Harbor in 1941, suddenly anyone in America who had any amount of Japanese ancestry became suspect. Politicians preyed upon ignorance and fear. /1

Luigi is my favorite Mario bros character. Some people might balk at that and wring their hands, but Luigi is a hero. More people should be like Luigi. The Mario Bros character.

Letter from former X employee admitting election interference:
"When Elon Musk took over, everything changed. What started as a social media company became much darker. I was part of a team that was directly ordered to manipulate Twitter's systems to influence the 2024 US presidential election."
