I’m getting reports of another major LGBTQ center that is following Fenway’s cowardly example and dropping trans youth care.

This decision will be a stain on their institutions.

We’ve been experiencing the collapse of so many systems, including local news.

But amid all this loss, there’s room for building something better than before.

Retweets aren’t always endorsements, but this one is. This is a must read, from how we’re protecting one another to the violence being brought by law enforcement to the Olympics & the NSSE designation.

As I said— “While there is sure to be devastation and unfortunately, lives lost, and we need to be able to mourn for that—what the disability community has always shown is that we can come together and imagine something that other people can’t see as possible.”

We can do both accountability & plan
"An absolute moral failure."

Around one in three disabled people are on Medicaid. I spoke to disability advocates about how devastated they are that the House passed the budget bill that will slash close to a trillion from Medicaid at @motherjones.com.

“Criminalization is central to enabling and enforcing authoritarian regimes and Right-wing agendas…Interrupting it must therefore be at the core of our response—not just as a discrete issue or siloed resistance, but as a root of fascism and authoritarianism we need to pull on with all our might."

Sotomayor, joined by Jackson, dissented, calling their colleagues' actions in the case "indefensible." It was one of several alarming signs for the nation on the Third of July.

man i wonder how eugenicist and white supremacist Jordan Lasker (aka Cremieux) managed to get his story into the New York Times. i'm sure it has nothing to do with the fact that Benjamin Ryan, who is bylined on that story, is a reader of his work? such an interesting coincidence!

With ICE's *enormous* new budget and its ability to hire *many* more agents, the United States is about to enter an era of brutal domestic terrorism that we've never seen before.

“The New York Times collaborated with a white nationalist eugenicist hacker and agreed to keep his identity a secret to publish a Zohran Mamdani hit piece” is a way bigger story than “18 year old Zohran Mamdani ticked ‘African American’ on his Columbia application because he was a citizen of Uganda”

"I can't believe The New York Times did this" Trans kids? Claudine Gay? Gaza? At some point we have to stop being surprised. The right sees the Times as a vehicle for laundering its conspiracy theories and injecting it into elite America and the Times is very happy to oblige them.

I don’t think anyone is prepared for what they just did w/ ICE.

This is not a simple budget increase. It is an explosion - making ICE bigger than the FBI, US Bureau of Prisons, DEA,& others combined.

It is setting up to make what’s happening now look like child’s play. And people are disappearing.
