It’s kind of incredible that The Onion’s aiming to surpass the Washington Post in print circulation but I’m here for it.
Here's a note I sent to our members about what we did with their money, and why we expect the Onion to outgrow the Washington Post.
We keep doing weird, hard shit — taunting ICE, yelling at Congress for not taunting ICE, buying bad websites — when nobody else does.
Our members keep getting papers.

Great backgrounder from the Advocate on how a small group of more or less professional detransitioners and rare stories of regret are being weaponized by Reps to drive policy and drown out local voices. @rikiwilchins.bsky.social
Detransition is rare, but it’s driving anti-trans policy anyway
Political rhetoric doesn’t capture the complexity of detransitioning — or what taking away health care means.

Too few people are talking about the fact that for eight years (2011-2019), while Jeffrey Epstein was raping young girls and trafficking them to hundreds of other rapists from his home base in Palm Beach, Florida, the Florida district attorney was Pam Bondi. Connect the dots.

Okay, so, we’re all going to have to agree that it’s wrong to have sex with children. Like, if you don’t agree with me inside your own head, you should keep that inside until you tell a therapist. Also, people who defend pedophiles can not be trusted with your children. At all. AT ALL. EVERRRRRRRRR.
