Donald Trump said “quiet piggy” to a female reporter because she dared to ask about the Epstein files, and as bad as that is, the fact that none of her colleagues defended her, is even worse.

KEEP SHARING YOUR STORIES about increased ACA premiums due to the disappearance of subsidies. The stories clearly are having an impact, they help people feel less helpless, and they create solidarity that leads to action.
Mine went from $395→ $821. What happened for you?

AI is like this giant fucking boat we all were forced to get on, and it's a boat they stole, and also it barely floats, and also it's not going anywhere good. So it either takes us somewhere we hate, or it fucking sinks, so either way, fuck AI.
So if AI succeeds loads of people lose their jobs as they're replaced by AI, and if AI fails, loads of people lose their jobs as the economy crashes?
It’s amazing how this story has gone from 0 to 60 in UK press. There’s been no mainstream coverage to date but this morning the story is leading BBC News site & bulletins.

That photograph captured in the oval office yesterday sums up Donald Trump perfectly.
He doesn’t give a fuck about anyone but himself.

if a plagiarism machine is all it was, that would be sad enough but vaguely tolerable, but it’s more than that - it’s a rapidly growing, planet destroying prison whose bars are made of everything humanity has already dreamed up: an instrument of stagnation.

EVERY SINGLE POLICY that soccer moms are outraged about the current administration perpetrating has been business as usual in prisons, jails, and policing, pretty much forever.
I'm not saying there's anything wrong with objecting to the stuff in front of your face, but please, DON'T STOP THERE.

Just cuz you’ve invented something seemingly nifty and shiny (if rotten under the hood), and sunk billions of dollars into it, and keep asserting (w/out much proof) its awesomeness does not mean I am obligated to find it useful in meeting my professional goals or obligations as an educator.

Yesterday: No suspect in custody. "We will jump to the conclusion it was a radical trans leftist, we should persecute all people like this person"
Today: Suspect in custody is from Utah, his dad is a Christian pastor. "We can't jump to any conclusions about this person's background or ideology".

there are some people who weren't worth the precious currency of my time when they were alive, and certainly have not somehow become more deserving of it when they are not.

When Monsters Write the Ending
The party of Trump crowned a trafficker as truth-teller, erased the victims, and marched our democracy one step closer to the abyss.

I absolutely want Newsom to keep fighting Trump and lead others in doing so. I absolutely do NOT want to accept him as *the* opposition leader or a 2028 Presidential candidate. He’s awful. I can accept help in this fight from folks I don’t like, but we need better at the top to rebuild.
