Antivaxx and libertarianism are the same--they can exist only when the majority of the population buys in to what it takes to live in a society, allowing the minority to think they are outsiders thriving on their own exceptionalism.

I am a product manager at Apple, in charge of making the Mail app worse.
I make four hundred and twenty-five thousand dollars per year and am considered to have absolute job security.
I think my next move will be to show something other than your inbox by default, maybe remove notifications?

This profile has been scrubbed from the site. Rose Ferreira grew up without reliable electricity, immigrated to NY, then survived homelessness and cancer on her way to NASA. She was so moved by images from the Webb telescope she wept. This is what’s at stake

if you're STILL complaining about the left:
1 - the actual left has no institutional support or power
2 - many leftists working on actionable things are occupied trying to keep people the center abandoned alive
3 - are you maybe confusing "all leftists" with a poster who annoyed you one time?

Everything America does to cut off its nose to spite its face is to hurt Black people first and women second. If you keep that in mind everything makes sense
I will never stop being aghast that the United States built a higher education system that was literally the envy of the entire world—our bitterest political enemies nonetheless sent their children to us to be educated, it was so good—& then just decided to systematically, ruthlessly dismantle it

These losers do this because their only shot at companionship is a hostage situation, so they spend all day harassing people into thinking a woman’s self worth should resemble their own.
If they tried being kind and not approaching every relationship as a transaction, they would be much happier

What are some accessible Infosec & Opsec resources that activists, journalists, and organizers can turn to in preparation for the Trump admin?
Preparing for a fascist regime can feel scary and paralyzing. This seems like an area where people can take control w/ concrete steps.

The fascists won and pushed her out.
I’ve decided to leave Scientific American after an exciting 4.5 years as editor in chief. I’m going to take some time to think about what comes next (and go birdwatching), but for now I’d like to share a very small sample of the work I’ve been so proud to support (thread)
