Estranged Parent subculture rules it's like "we are united by the fact that our children will not talk to us" which means it's going to largely self-select for the most insufferable people, so insufferable in fact that their own children have stopped speaking to them.

There are probably more than just these three, by the way. It is open season right now. The vault is open if you know how to get in there and are willing to take the risk of prosecution. I just want to know if there is even the patina of coordination.

There appear to be at least three separately operating heel factions breaking things within the government in wholly different ways right now. There's the Miller-headed immigration one, the DOGE/Elon one, and a Project 2025 OMB one. This dynamic hasn't showed up in mainstream reporting at all.

What free press/media that remains should notice what is happening with the steady erasure of transness from public life and push back. Highlight trans artists beyond the 1 or 2 a year that get any kind of attention, make trans art a priority beyond Pride month roundups & award show darlings

Nazi Germany had a population of 79 million and an area of 245,000 sq miles. The US has a population of 341 million and an area of 3.8 million sq miles. I think that matters a lot more than people think.

A trick to help my anxious brain think they’re just more things to cross off instead of reasons to spiral. Sometimes that still happens but this helps. Maybe it can help someone else! Idk!

The Trump administration is scrubbing the CDC’s website of documents on reproductive rights issues, sexual health, intimate partner violence, and more.
I'm trying to save them.
You can find the deleted docs at CDCGuidelines.com - I'll be adding more over the weekend.

I wonder if there's a concise term for a political tendency that vilifies immigrants and foreigners and disabled people and queers and marginalizes their concerns.

If you're wondering why some of us seem more angry at Democrats than Republicans it's because Republicans loudly announced all the evil shit they planned to do, Democrats fund-raised off of it for months, then after losing the election just slunk away and pouted in a pile of feigned incompetence.

i think this should be factored into how states, counties, localities and hospitals respond to these executive orders. "we will investigate you if you teach DEI." okay, with what agents, specifically? with what state capacity?
NYT reported that the number of potentially affected agents is as high as 6k. The bureau has about 13.7k agents total
What a hideous headline. Folks calling the shots here are just corrupt banana republic trash.

The fundamental argument is that Luigi Mangione and RFK Jr have the same critique of the American health care system, namely that it prioritizes profits over health.
This is not remotely what RFK Jr. believes. He believes public health is a vast conspiracy that is murdering millions of children.
