Giving parents the discretion not to vaccinate their kids is one of the strongest ways the state reinforces the parent-child relationship as one of ownership.

Your parents have the ability to decide whether you will die of preventable disease, because you are their property not a person.
To be very clear: Kennedy's team is messing with a vaccine which has led to a 99 percent drop in the incidence of hepatitis B, which kills, early and painfully, 25 percent of the children who get it.
RFK’s Anti-Vax Team Readies Its Next Moves
“Their game is, let’s really destabilize trust in the vaccine, and make people really anxious about it.”

Everyone in Chicago needs to read this AND TAKE ACTION. Everyone else should read this and ask what's happening where you are with your public library systems.
Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson has proposed disastrous cuts to our city's libraries while setting aside $5M for a ShotSpotter replacement. As library associate Sara Heymann told me, “Libraries embody everything we need to fight back against fascism.” My piece on what’s at stake and how to fight back:
You Can’t Fight Fascism While Defunding Libraries
“Libraries embody everything that we need right now to fight back against fascism," says Sara Heymann.

If you think that AI is "just a tool", bear one thing in mind.

You are not the one who holds the hammer. You are the one into whom the nail is driven.

World AIDS Day is a reminder that s-x workers have always been leaders in HIV prevention and advocacy.

The law is not now, nor has it ever been, a moral instrument.

It's also worth noting that romanticizing the rule of law means adopting a wholly false perspective around what the law is, who it targets, who it privileges, and how it functions—or I suppose it could just be an embrace of that hierarchy, which is also... a problem.

The problem with fetishizing the rule of law is that people have to break the law to resist fascism, state violence, and oppression. This has always been true, and is very much the case RIGHT NOW.

I have used this app to treat myself pretty frequently, if any of you ever need recommendations on what bags in Jacksonville or Oakland are good, feel free to ask.
I don't know how many of you are familiar w/ the Too Good to Go app, which allows you to find restaurants & stores in your area that are selling surprise bags of surplus food at discounted prices, but they now also have discounted foods for delivery! (Like, shipped, not like Postmates.) It's great.

This is what happens when you don’t aggressively kill, sometimes on a daily basis, the part of you that was indoctrinated to be impressed by and enamored with power and its many affirmations. So ridiculous.

Once we get too close to actually holding someone or something accountable there’s an effort to quell the previously righteous anger, and/or redirect it into violence against scapegoats that only ends in more abuse

Rape and abuse and pedophilia and all these things are bad in the abstract but we’re not allowed to say who’s doing it and we’re not allowed to say who was victimized by it. We can’t come up with ways to stop it from happening, either

Reposted by QueerRiot
That’s (part of) why so much energy is invested in who is allowed to be called a victim, what crimes are allowed to be called crimes. Well unless the child is below the age of 15 it doesn’t even matter, and we won’t believe the ones under 15 exist. We know it’s happening but stop being mad about it

You’re not allowed to do anything about it either, but it’s deeper than that. We have so far to go to actually get accountability and change. For now they don’t even want us to register our discontent with abuse and rape

Reposted by QueerRiot
It has always been so obvious that the backlash to MeToo isn’t about whether the abuse is happening but whether people are allowed to want it to stop
