This isn’t even a boomer complaint, cuz all the boomer parents I knew were playing Super Nintendo with their kids in the 90s. This is Silent Generation nonsense. This is “I’m scared of technology” dogshit. It’s anti-art. It’s actually the dumbest thing I’ve ever read

Olivia Rodrigo is donating $2 MILLION from her GUTS tour ticket revenue to 10 global non-profits supporting women.

The organisations listed work to support reproductive freedom, girls’ education and to prevent gender-based violence.

The North Carolina General Assembly’s GOP supermajority just approved a hugely corrupt power grab, seizing authority from the governor and the courts to prevent any meaningful check on legislative abuses. Authoritarian stuff. A very dark day for democracy in NC. amp.newsobserver.com/news/politic...

12 years ago today, New York City saw a rare day where no murders, shootings, stabbings or violent crimes were reported.

It marked the city’s most peaceful day in recent history.

Sen. Bernie Sanders goes scorched earth, saying "The Democrats ran a campaign protecting the status quo and tinkering around the edges" and that its leadership "are much too wedded to the billionaires and corporate interests that fund their campaigns."

We keep saying this was going to happen. I feel like I’m going insane
President-elect Trump and his allies disavowed the conservative Project 2025 during the election.

Now, his transition team is turning to Project 2025 to help staff the next administration, sources tell @nbcnews.com.

Hey MAGA,

You now have the WH, the House, the Senate, and SCOTUS…

That means YOUR party is responsible for every problem in America now.

If gas isn’t $1.50. If eggs aren’t $1 a carton. If inflation doesn’t plummet…

We’ll be waiting to remind you that you were conned a SECOND time.

-All of us.

HR 9495 is a MAGA authoritarian bill that is designed to obliterate non-profits, civil rights, & free speech — and more than 50 Dems voted to help pass it.

Here’s who they are, why HR 9495 is so devastating, and how we can organize to stop its passage.

Important note for reporters covering the GOP's effort to ban trans women from bathrooms on Capitol Hill: while Sarah McBride and Nancy Mace both have private bathrooms in their offices, the trans people who are not elected officials who have to work there every day do not.

Transphobia isn’t a distraction. It’s an attack on one of the most vulnerable populations and a reinforcement of biological essentialism, a pillar of patriarchal control that trans identity rightfully threatens

Congresswoman-elect Sarah McBride is the most normie a trans woman has ever been. This should be a giant flashing alarm for trans women who have tried to cozy up to the right. Caitlyn Jenner, Brianna Wu, Blaire White - no matter who you are, Republicans are not your friends.

GOP Congresswoman Nancy Mace is introducing a resolution to ban transgender women from using women’s restrooms at the U.S. Capitol.

First reported by Fox News.

The real trap here is that the Republicans have made defending civil rights seem like a frivolous thing and a whole lot of liberals are falling in line. Even if it was a culture war, so what? This would be a war worth fighting. What are we even doing here, people? Get it together.

This isn't a culture war. This is the only trans congresswoman, ever being bullied through the press and legislation, and having only 1 of hundreds of colleagues stand up for her. They can do more than 1 thing at a time. Defending her will not take so much effort that they can't do their jobs.
Defending Sarah McBride is absolutely the right thing to do, and yet there’s also the risk of being baited into yet another culture war cycle that distracts from the Republican grift. Her statement suggests she wants to move forward, and I think it’s wise to take the cue from her.

sarah mcbride deserves dignity herself, but i assume she knew this was coming. whatever they can get away with doing to her, they’ll try to do to every trans person in the US.

there’s no room for reaching across the aisle here btw. the bathroom ⬇️ is the result of “reasonable people can disagree.”
Bathrooms with a view: Cutting windows into student restrooms is a new level of weird
These adults want to make it easier for other people to watch your children while they’re in the bathroom. It’s absolutely mind-boggling.
