every trans person i see post about the OU suspension knows that the suspended target is trans & a grad student, & has an innate awareness that this is about purging trans employees. every cis person i see thinks the target is a rando professor & that this is about giving conservatives good grades

Oprah; the ultimate aunt we should *all* go no-contact with.

From Dr.s Oz to Phil, the Satanic Panic & multi-colored bracelets at teenage sex parties, to disordered eating & body dysmorphia, Ms. "Guest at Jeff's Island-closing Wedding" should be off *everyone's Xmas card list!
I know people often have mixed opinions on Oprah. But her podcast episode on people who choose to go no contact with their families is one of the best podcast episodes I’ve listened to this year youtu.be/cK7EJgILMIk?...

Again, we went out and put a bajillion things on fucking POSTERS that they could turn into their ENTIRE PLATFORM:

*Human rights (read as ALL humans, trans folk, immigrants, disabled folks, &c)
*Medicare 4 all
*Tax the rich
*Ending genocide
*&c, &c.

WTF MORE IS HE LOOKING FOR?!?!
No value, no villain, no vision. Sounds like the tagline for the earnings call of a collapsing appliance retailer

As an autistic person, the only thing I want to know from @nature.com is why is the mum also a chair
Hey @nature.com, have you got an explanation for how the hell THIS happened? & especially why you accepted a paper with such a bizarre piece of genAI slop in it?!
& more to the point, why we should take you seriously at all going forward?

Someone doesn't know that Substack monetizes & platforms Nazi content, & took it personally. Maybe the researcher should do a little more research.

Pretty convincing evidence here that the Trump administration was planning to jailbreak and provide asylum for Bolsonaro -- and that Trump inadvertently revealed the plan.

And this, as the now-cliche goes, would have been a paralyzing scandal for any other administration.
Trump appears to blurt out secret plan, not knowing it's already a bust

There are 50,000 food insecure children in Maine and 2 trans athletes. Every single candidate running for office who can drum up concern about the latter but has nothing to say about the former is telling on themselves. They don’t care about children. Only power. And they’ll hurt kids for it.
25 Nov 2025 @rikiwilchins.bsky.social -- In unusual move, Sen Susan Collins (R-ME) signs petition for referendum on the 2026 ballot that would bar trans students from sports teams, locker-rooms and bathrooms. She's in a hotly contested election & this is pbly one way to increase Rep turnout.
