"But what about people who are bad at art? They should have a chance to join in too."

Yeah, by making BAD ART. Maybe it'll turn into Good Art with practice. Maybe it'll always be pretty bad art. The idea that we have to appear immediately good at everything even if we have to fake it is a sickness.

Another day of reminding everyone of Carl Sagan’s eerily accurate warning about the dangers of not being able to ask skeptical scientific questions to those in power or authority.

This is literally the Big Pharma conspiracy theory of my lifetime!! That they were suppressing cures because the treatment is more lucrative! Mr. Anti-Big Pharma conspiracy theorist RFK Jr. is literally helping them turn the made-up nefarious scheme real!
Ironically, this is Big Pharma's wet dream. Rather than a preventative vaccine that costs a few dollars a dose twice a lifetime, they can sell expensive new in-patent drugs for hundreds a dose that you need to keep taking.
Robert F. Kennedy Jr. will direct federal health agencies to explore potential new treatments for measles as the U.S. faces its largest outbreak in 25 years. Experts fear the decision could have grave consequences, as studies show the existing vaccine is 97% effective in preventing infection.

“Eugenics isn’t just about eradicating the lesser people like myself, like people with disabilities, it’s about attaching disability to marginalized communities in order to slate them for eradication.”

Fantastic crash course in eugenics, ableism & anti-blackness from @imanibarbarin.bsky.social

Pope Francis portrayed values very close to what Jesus would have wanted, which is probably why a lot of conservatives disliked him. Radical kindness and acceptance of those most in need of love and compassion makes a lot of people hostile.

I hope the next can continue his legacy of empathy.

It's never about the science. It's always about having a legal basis for your fear and hatred of other people.
My husband has taught human reproduction and development to the Cambridge medics for over three decades. When people start banging on about "only two biological sexes" he starts with "which sex: genetic, hormonal, or gonadal"?

Biological sex is not binary. www.scientificamerican.com/article/sex-...
Sex Redefined: The Idea of 2 Sexes Is Overly Simplistic
Biologists now think there is a larger spectrum than just binary female and male

There’s just so much shady shit in this story, but this really sticks out. Folks in NLRB’s IT unit were so freaked out by what they saw DOGE doing that they wanted to notify the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency. Then this happened:

It's as American as chattel slavery, the Trail of Tears, Japanese internment, and Indian Boarding Schools. Project 2025 really isn't relying on any other history than America's. I need y'all to tap into what has been happening here all along.
The Trump administration is saying that they can deny due process to anyone they want and deport them to dangerous foreign prisons.

This isn’t even Project 2025.
This is Nazi Germany 1933.
Trump administration contends it has no duty to return illegally deported man to US
The administration’s position suggests officials do not view the Supreme Court’s order as compelling them to seek Abrego Garcia’s return.

Bang on.

I’ve been thinking very hard about these comparisons.

In terms of how bad it might get. What’s possible and what might change.

I would say it’s far far worse than 9/11; there’s some comparison to early GWOT (about how much freedom we were going to lose); far far worse than 1/6, unless
This has been two weeks of constant events that are more dangerous than January 6th or, I’d absolutely argue, even 9/11, and it is a damning indictment of American media that so many publications and reporters are too cowardly, too docile, to act like it.
Yes. Meanwhile the rest of mainstream media is largely acting like this has been a mildly worrisome two weeks, not the greatest scandal and danger to America that any of us has ever lived through.

This is a good question, but I have to give a harsh answer:

They will be useless to any liberation movement going forward unless they accept that there are no “good” or “bad” Christians.

That is the first step. Them trying to create a line of between themselves and 45 is why we are here.
I really don’t know if there can be a true resistance to this that isn’t aligned with faith / spirituality and the community of organized religion.

Read history. Oligarchs have owned and controlled our government before. They’ve attacked oppressed groups, gone after migrants, and enacted mass violence against workers who dared resist. But people kept fighting. They organized. They built power. What we need to do is not unprecedented.
