There is absolutely no excuse for any Democrat asked about trans athletes to ever respond with anything but “why are you wasting my time asking about FEWER THAN FIFTEEN CHILDREN AND YOUNG ADULTS IN THE ENTIRE COUNTRY WHO WANT TO PLAY GAMES WITH THEIR FRIENDS. What is wrong with you?”

Meta is really getting desperate to boost engagement on Facebook...

We have a new friend suggestion for you! It's your neighbor! The one you never really liked! Who's been dead for more than a year!

Do you want to send a friend request now?

It can not be stressed enough that this club as a whole isn't where it's at today without Trevor. No championships, no second division, NOTHING.

THANK YOU TREVOR.

Markéta Irglová and Glen Hansard are lot by rainbow stage lights at the Fillmore in Detroit. And it is increasingly clear that I need a new cell phone because this photo is needlessly blurry despite having really excellent seats

Don't sleep on the new Swell Season album. Saw them play last night in Detroit. This might be the best example of former romantic partners channeling their mess in service of the music since Fleetwood Mac

I'm so deeply sorry for the people of Malaysia that there are so many things on fire in the US right now that we let this slip through without even a fight

New rule: no criticizing the way others choose to resist unless you have a better, actionable idea and kind, constructive feedback. New ideas are good! Performative contrarianism is useless.

Good morning!

Cartoon from Crustacean Singles shows 2 crudely drawn figures talking. "So, have you decided on your Independence Day resolutions yet?" "My...what?" "You know... like, what specific injustices do you plan to rebel against in the coming year?"

Rebelling against injustice is an American value.

I know these institutions cannot love us. But doggone the way they will sacrifice you to save themselves is something that still takes my breath away.

I am not in a position to help my colleagues at Siena Heights, but we can help students who need to finish their degrees. You may have more options than you realize.

I thought I was just going to enjoy the new season of America's Sweethearts because I am a garbage person who enjoys the occasional reality TV binge...

But I also enjoyed the new season of America's Sweethearts because I am pro-union and I like seeing cheerleaders organize for better pay.

Cuts to Medicaid in Michigan would be devastating to hundreds of thousands of people and could have a major impact on everyone, recipient or not. Please contact your GOP US House member and demand they reject the Trump Big Disaster Budget. (Slotkin/Peters will vote No). 1/

I appreciate the sentiment because we can't expect Tammy Duckworth to represent a quarter of the population all by herself, but also... hey, let's not forget that Tammy Duckworth exists

I just changed from my daytime Costco pants into my evening Costco pants.

Middle-aged Friday night is gonna be lit.

So am I reading this court decision correctly? We now have 50 micronations with their own laws interpreting the U.S. Constitution wholly separate from one another? But there's one guy with private law enforcement who is immune from all punishment who can do whatever he wants in those 50 states?

Grim parallels

If you’ve got a badge and a gun but think your actions are shameful enough to need a mask, you should quit.

1. Alert, and please share widely. A lawyer at the ACLU has asked me to inform my transgender readers that they should NOT be applying for passports right now - the state department has not issued guidance to comply with the court order and they are urgently trying to get them to do so.

You only need like a Schoolhouse Rock-level understanding of civics to know that it doesn't work like that

This is so real

I suspect that fact that the vast majority of LLM users don’t seem to have received this (really very simple!) message is because the AI companies have a vested interest in us not understanding it. “ChatGPT is smart, it just makes mistakes sometimes” is much more marketable than the truth.

Baby of brain-dead pregnant woman kept alive under abortion law has been delivered, family says Adriana Smith's boy was delivered via emergency cesarean section Friday, the family said. The family has said it plans to discontinue life support for the woman.

Maintaining a dead woman's body for 5 months then delivering a one pound highly premature baby from her corpse is a cruel medical experiment.
If ever you wonder why there are high levels of medical mistrust in the Black community, remember this story.

We got the ruling in Skrmetti and it's shit.

"Tennessee’s law prohibiting certain medical treatments for
transgender minors is not subject to heightened scrutiny under the Equal Protection Clause of the Fourteenth Amendment and satisfies rational basis review."

"The rule of law is not fine"

There are no words to express how bananas all of this is

“*I* will represent me!”

Good for her.

If I reject the premise that year 36 will serve you daily disappointments, would that technically fulfill the rejection quota for the day?

"We do hard shit together" would make for a very-efficient one-sentence syllabus 😂
