Bird-yimby, car-nimby. I don't like to use the term 'triple threat' because it suggests that I'm limited to only three skills.

How the nyt used the Cass report to restart its anti-trans propaganda campaign in the US:
Coverage of the report was initially assigned to a nyt UK correspondent, usual practice for a UK report. The story being prepared cited critics who called Cass a shoddy, political document that defied science
One reason the NYT has burned its credibility with trans people is that they still cite the discredited Cass report in reporting on trans healthcare. Never the German, Utah, or other systematic reviews supporting care. They also never provide the political context behind restrictions in care.

The Block The Bombs Act, which would legally suspend a large portion of American offensive military assistance to Israel, now has 60 cosponsors in the House of Representatives.

It is also endorsed by the Congressional Progressive Caucus, the first ever Israel-Palestine related bill to acquire it.

By 2011 Epstein had already:
-registered as a sex offender
-plead guilty to solicitation of prostitution with a minor under the age of 18
-settled multiple civil lawsuits brought against him by victims

one thing that is important to know is that BIRTH OF A NATION is so racist that people at the *time*, in 1915, were like, “holy shit this is racist”
When the slightest bit of research shows he was consistently racist and a daddy issues Confederate fanboy.

People try to paint BIRTH OF A NATION as a masterpiece with some unfortunate racism. The whole movie is racist, the “masterpiece “ thing was backfilled to excuse it.

I want to uplift the women who were girls who were raped by Epstein & Maxwell & Trump & ex-Prince Andrew & abandoned by everyone who's been scrambling lately to say that they didn't know of course they didn't know but they did know & some of them knew because they'd done it too.

For the last few months, I've been working on a story about January's crash near Washington, D.C. What I learned was that it was simply an accident waiting to happen.

This will cost a total of $15 billion so it's weird to blame the boogeyman of "big bike" for something that legally must be considered for a project that, by the way, will *double* car lanes.

That pedestrian lane may not get used much, but drivers are never asked to defend infrastructure for cars.
Adding a pedestrian lane to the Chesapeake Bay Bridge at a cost of $1 billion as a treat for cycling organizations is a concise illustration of how the groups drive up infrastructure costs
Maryland set to nearly double the size of the Chesapeake Bay Bridge
After years of discussion, Maryland is moving forward with a plan to put eight lanes of traffic on the long span.

FOUR new deaths in ICE detention. That puts the total this year at 30 people dead; the highest in ICE's history and worse than even during the COVID years.

It's clear that the system is breaking down. Many of these are preventable deaths.
In the 90 minutes since I posted this, I've gotten two more death notifications.

ICE has a responsibility to take care of these people, something they are clearly disregarding. This is beyond horrifying. We must ensure dignity and humanity for detained people in this country.
Within 15 minutes today, I got two back-to-back notifications of deaths at ICE facilities.

28 people have died in ICE custody since Trump took office. These facilities are overcrowded & are putting their own profits over health and safety. We need oversight & accountability NOW.

I'm increasingly convinced Trump's inner circle is giving him busy work (the White House ballroom, Kennedy Center, presidential plaques, gold decorations, etc.) while they essentially run the government. He admits that he doesn't even know who he is pardoning anymore.

Wednesday morning, 7 ICE agents in Salisbury, MD, smashed in windows & violently dragged a mother out of her car while she was dropping her daughter off at elementary school.

These abusive tactics are absolutely unacceptable.
