14 Nov 2025 - Texas A&M bans courses advocating “race & gender ideology or topics related to sex/or or GI.” Race ideology is “attempts to shame a particular race or ethnicity.” Gender ideology is “a concept of self-assessed gender identity replacing biological...sex.”

Texas A&M OKs "race and gender ideology" restrictions
Faculty are also prohibited from teaching material inconsistent with approved syllabi. The changes come in response to a recent controversy over gender identity classroom discussions.

I genuinely wonder what the point of life is if 99% of us spend the vast majority of it making a few useless, net negative people rich and comfortable. Absolute bullshit.

Working 5/7 days a week your entire life instead of being able to live your life how you want to is a cruel and unusual punishment that only the ultra wealthy get to avoid, usually by pure luck and/or pure cruelty and greed.

Fuck that. UBI. I wanna sit at home and crochet.
Universal basic income is nothing less than a goddamn human right just as much as universal healthcare and education are. And I don't care if anyone works less because we should be working less. We should have shorter weeks instead of bullshit jobs. We have the productive capacity to meet ALL NEEDS.

Democrats should be running ads every day from now until November 2028 about how Trump sued to prevent SNAP checks from going out.

Since Sarah Kendzior’s account has been restored for a “death threat”- I’m wondering why Link’s hasn’t… does Bluesky take alleged threats against their CEO more seriously than ones against other people? Will Patton Oswalt also have a full account ban?

"my least woke opinion is---"

That's enough. We've had enough people indulging in the "thrill of a little conservatism", as a treat. Of considering reactionary thought to be a salacious and taboo in a world descending into reactionary mania.

Give me your MOST woke opinions. We're bringing it back.

Give a man a fish and someone with a thousand fishes is going to bitch about people getting free handouts. Teach a man to fish? Yeah, that person with a thousand fishes is going to bitch about that too.

when you understand that patriarchy views children as sexual property it all makes sense. there's no hypocrisy. exposure to queerness & transness threatens to "corrupt" the father's property, to "lead them astray" into self-determination, to taint their future sexual value. CSA is permissible as >
Thatcher's government did this with Section 28, banned the "promotion of homosexuality" as a danger to children, while actively protecting Jimmy Savile and who knows how many other pedophiles. It's the same damn playbook.
I cannot begin to properly articulate how upsetting it is to have had people baselessly accuse trans people of being groomers and pedophiles only for it to come out that they were deliberately doing this as part of a project to provide cover to actual groomers and pedophiles in positions of power

I continue to disagree with this. The goal of mass detention is mass deportations. A private prison company leasing 100 beds to ICE gets paid the same if the beds are filled by 100 people for a year each or 1,000 people for a few days each. They don't earn more with long-term detention.
It's not about deporting them. It's about detaining them indefinitely and enriching Prisons for Profiteers and the grift the Convict in the Oval Office collects per detainee.

I understand why it's preferable to believe that the country is being run by little Gordon Gekkos rather than little Eichmanns, because the little Gekkos can be bought off for the right price, but sorry, I need you to look these people in the eye and realize that they are little Eichmanns

You do not have to hand it to the Catholic bishops. In the same meeting, they banned gender affirming care at all Catholic hospitals nationwide.

Yea there's likely more in the documents if not about Trump but about a lot of rich and powerful men. That's why the DOJ doesn't want a public release.

the point of camo for a soldier is to obscure their position from the enemy. camo in an urban environment is completely different, and this forest green or desert pattern is functionally useless.

police only dress this way to project an image of power they should not have.

I simply refuse to accept that police ever have to look like this. this is just pure cosplay. it should be illegal for cops to be dressed like soldiers going to war.

"Born this way" and "wrong body" are two sides of the same coin, and I don't care how you use them, or if you use them at all. You are trans enough regardless of how you got here. 💜
People freaking out over "born in the wrong body" always gives me a chuckle. Like, tell me again about how you let a full-grown man "into your heart" and you're "washed in the blood"

"wrong body" is perfectly fine to describe something words can't contain.

hey remember how that one big tech ceo was on a panel in like 2021/22 where someone asked him about how remote work gave a lot more power to the workers and he chuckled and said “yeah well a little recession will take care of that”

I think about that often.
Just fucking insane to see the absolute (intentional) collapse of full remote jobs available for AAA studios in so short a time. Why would I EVER move for a job again when I could be laid off weeks after moving my entire life across the globe??

I think the core point is that trump had a honeymoon in which capital/media/political opposition all decided he was the one true voice of america. he did a lot of horrible things with that (including murdering 100s of thousands), but didn't consolidate power...
