This is one of the clearest headlines I've seen in a while from one of the big media orgs.

These moves are the same kinds of moves Hitler and the Third Reich did in 1930s Germany.

More of this framing is important to fight the Trump state media of Fox/Twitter.

“On February 24, Steven Donovan, 47, arrived at an apartment complex in Orlando carrying a gun while demanding entry. The man claimed he was conducting an immigration investigation and wanted to ensure there were “no Mexicans staying illegally” at the property, according to authorities.”

the old george carlin line “it’s a big club and you ain’t in it” never feels as true as it did when the president manipulated the economy by almost causing a recession, and yukked it up with other rich assholes about how much money they made destroying people’s savings

Getting out of work early today to take Rose to the vet. She’s got a little limp, & we’re not sure if she strained something playing with Dahlia, if one of her little lipomas is compressing a nerve, or if it’s another issue entirely. Anyway, I’m anxious for her 🙃🙃🙃

The "he's not gonna listen to her" reactions are missing many points. Lots of other people are also hearing it. Lots of people can see him hearing it, then weigh what she's said with what he'll do. Lots of people can see her refusal to surrender these ancient teachings to the latest face of empire
Rev. Mariann Edgar Budde to Trump: "I ask you to have mercy upon the people in our country who are scared now. There are gay, lesbian, and transgender people in Democratic, Republican, and independent families, some who fear for their lives ... and the vast majority of immigrants are not criminals"

Do not

Do not

Do NOT

Announce or even hint on your social media that you’re doing illegal or potentially illegal things. Even if for excellent reasons.

You will be a target and make the people you aid targets.

alright you wanna know how to support trans people?

hire them. It's REALLY hard already for visibly trans people to get jobs, even before this shit.

Support places that have trans people working front of house, and make sure owners know that's part of why you're there.

Overtime at work. Going to bed early tonight, I think. Between the dentist last night and the general state of things, I slept like 💩.

Going to take some time this week to start looking for everyone from the other apps over here, though, and I will try to be more active here than elsewhere.

"The New Segregationists" is a more accurate headline.

You could go through nearly this entire article replacing "anti-DEI" with "segregationist," and it would work.

Homogeneity is the opposite of diversity, which is what they aim for.

As Donald Trump returns to the White House, a newly emboldened anti-DEI bloc has gained powerful allies.

I am a climate scientist and this is correct ⬇️
Occasional reminder that there’s no, “it’s too late, its over” for anthropogenic climate change. Every molecule of CO2 that doesn’t go into the atmosphere makes a difference. Preventing 0.1 degree of warming makes a difference. Every bit of climate resilience we build together makes a difference.

Merry Strikemas!
Starbucks workers AND Amazon workers are on nationwide strikes during one of the busiest shopping periods of the year. I truly hope their bosses are sweating bullets :)

And yes, Bluesky doesn't allow people to monetize posts here (yet). But professional trolls will take any negative attention they get here and quote about it elsewhere to drum up support for their substacks or whatever.

No attention, just reports and blocks.

Reminder: pls don't quote dunk or respond to professional trolls. They literally monetize any interaction - very happily engaging in online fights for attention, which = money.

So when you respond to them, you're giving them money.

Don't give money to trolls.

Just report and block.

In response to the NYPD asking the public for help identifying the man who assassinated the Healthcare CEO, people are posting letters of rejection received from them for everything from wheelchairs to medications, to life saving surgeries.

The People are speaking.

DOGE, the new office charged with finding government waste, literally cites the GAO…the office charged with finding government waste.

We're living in the worst timeline.

Pertussis - better known as “whooping cough” or “100 day cough” - is no joke. It can be terrifyingly fatal for small children (they just stop breathing without warning). When it’s not fatal, it can mean 100 days of coughing fits so severe that rib fractures are common.

It is vaccine preventable.
CDC data shows large increase in pertussis - more than 5 times the same time last year.
"The CDC's data shows Pennsylvania has reported about 10% (2,462) of all pertussis cases this year." www.precisionvaccinations.com/pennsylvania...
