For the folx following me, welcome! Just a few things to be aware of.

I post a lot of LGBTQ+ activism stuff, some politics (yeah, I definitely have OPINIONS and I miss my PR folx), and memes/pet pix. If that's not your jam, cool! Now you can make an informed decision on following or not.

I wonder if knowledge of the double tap prompted the six members of congress to make that ad, and that's what made Trump and Hegseth so angry about it.

As Congress vows accountability, the Trump administration emphasized it was a top military commander — not the defense secretary — who directed the engagement.

So, “the left” isn’t falling for the regime’s attempts to foment violence.

Every time the GOP needs a big distraction or a reason to escalate… magically, there is a politically motivated shooting.

Is this regime having people shot in order to push Miller’s narrative?

Just asking questions. 😉

This article is 1000% correct. We can’t actually achieve any of these goals without more staff. Friendly reminder that the last time we had this few staff it was 1967. We served 480 claimants per staff then. Now we have to serve 1800 per staff. This is not sustainable or even achievable. Period.

World AIDS Day 🧵
1/n

Although a stated goal of this regime was to end the AIDS epidemic, the regime has pulled the US out of the World Health Organization and refuses to recognize World AIDS Day in 2025.

So, to recap:

Washington Post story breaks on Hegseth.

Pentagon says fake news.

White House confirms the story roughly 12 hours later - and defends it.

Press Sec confirms that Hegseth personally ordered the execution of the two stranded men.

This isn’t going well.

Remember: Almost all of us are the descendants of immigrants who fled persecution, or were brought to America under duress, or sought better lives for themselves and their descendants.

Politicians who stoke fear and hatred over immigration want you to forget this.

Do not.

The real 1A issue is that a trans grad student was targeted by the state for punishment while a network of malignant political operatives who helped it happen celebrate.

None of the people picking apart the assignment want to engage with that, for probably bad reasons. It’s frustrating.

Look I don’t want to dogpile this guy’s mentions, but if you, as a constitutional law expert, ever find yourself arguing that the first amendment makes bad grades illegal you should probably do some self-reflection.

And if that isn’t what you meant, then reconsider the utility of good writing.

Remember Thomas Jacob Sanford, the Iraq veteran who burned up a Mormon Church in September? Remember Nigel Edge, the Iraq veteran sniper who shot up a bar from his boat in Cape Fear, also in September?

If the Venezuelan sailors were enemy combatants, then the 2nd strike is a war crime.

If the Venezuelan sailors weren’t enemy combatants, then both strikes are criminal murder.

It’s that simple.

This.

The second strike is important bc AFTER that one, they started leaving survivors (plus, why the fuck can't Whiskey Pete's DOD manage to destroy a boat in uncontested waters the first strike?).

But all these are murder. Murder murder murder murder.
The first strike was also murder. You can’t just up and kill civilians on the high seas and then claim you were at war with them.
Reporter: If there were a second strike that killed wounded people, would that be legal?

Trump: I don’t know that happened and Pete said he did not even know what people were talking about. I wouldn’t have wanted a second strike. The first strike was very lethal. It was fine.

The reason why I detest AIPAC is that they convinced the world that any mention of Netanyahu or Genocide is antisemitic . They have decided that any dissent about murdering Palestinians is antisemitic.

It is not antisemitic to want a country to stop killing children or wanting Netanyahu arrested.

“People don’t have a choice if work makes them use A/I”

I refuse to use A/I. I voice that on any project I touch.

If you’re making “A/I dubs” of animes, you’re the same as a scab during a strike.

Just because it keeps YOU secure, doesn’t mean you’re absolved from the damage you’re causing others.

Donald Trump hates me, and the feeling is mutual.

I believe he is a criminal and an authoritarian who is trying to destroy our democracy and the rule of law. I spend a considerable amount of my time fighting against him and his enablers in court and in public discourse.
