This may be the start of a series of questions posed specifically to Musk's Grok AI, which will be hard for MAGA to argue as biased or fake. Thoughts?

To me, this speaks to the heart of any successful society, democracy, religion, family, friendship, and civil discourse. Contributing to the darkness only makes it more difficult for all of us to find our way.

This is just horrifying. Leon is amplifying a message that being a decent human being is a threat that needs to be squashed

It's interesting that MAGA is all for "parental rights" when they want to ban books and force Christianity on others but have zero problem denying other parents the right to raise their trans children in loving, safe and supportive environments.

Free speech is a beautiful thing, but when a billionaire thinks his voice is more valuable than yours and steps on your opinion using their vast wealth it creates an inequality that we really need to address.

Thinking about the calls to support independent media and I have to say the Black press really ought to be included in these appeals. Outlets like the Washington Informer, Dallas Weekly, New York Amsterdam News, and the Dallas Post Tribune do valuable work.

I made my first White Board video since the election. This one was both hard--and cathartic--to do.

If you like it, please share.

The glut of straight, cis white dudes bashing "identity politics" as if only marginalized folks have identities? They're unqualified to analyze the role of anti-trans election disinformation.

Instead: read Julia Serano, who has written on trans issues for decades with clarity, insight, and vision.
