Supreme Court sharply questions law banning conversion therapy Colorado's law, similar to ones on the books in nearly 30 states, may infringe on free speech rights, justices suggest. Updated October 7, 2025 at 2:02 p.m. EDT

Anti-conversion therapy laws DO NOT infringe upon one’s “right to free speech”; dismantling them WILL lead to gross infringements upon one’s human rights - especially children’s. Conversion camps aren’t just breeding grounds for torture and abuse; they ARE torture and abuse. SCOTUS KNOWS this.

Lol @ the BlueSky moderation here. And by "lol" I mean "ignorant and enabling."

I just watched a video of an ICE agent trying to find a costumed frog's rear air hole to stick pepper spray in it, and, like, why are we paying people to do this

Hopefully the whole Bari Weiss thing and Ezra Klein thing starts waking people up to the fact that corporate media is mostly populated with mediocre people who have made millions and gained unbelievable influence because they threaten nothing and tell wealthy people exactly what they want to hear.

House of South Carolina Judge Criticized by Trump Administration Set Ablaze Authorities are investigating a fire at the home of a South Carolina judge who had reportedly received death threats in what could be the latest incident of political violence across the country.

Over the weekend, Trump's deputy chief of staff for policy Stephen Miller repeatedly attacked judges, calling them part of an "organized terrorist attack" on the US government....

On Saturday, the home of a judge who ruled against Trump, went up in flames

Pretty clear Stephen Miller, Noem, Hegseth and Trump are trying to provoke a Civil War at this point. What's interesting is they want to do it now, because even though they're unpopular, they seem to believe this is the most popular they'll be ever again. We can't let them win.

I’m a US citizen and a veteran. ICE arrested me for no reason. Jailed for three days without an explanation or ability to notify anyone, George Retes argues the only path to healing starts with the government taking accountability for its actions.

"[A]gents engulfed my car in tear gas, smashed my driver-side window, and pepper-sprayed my face.... I spent three nights and three days in federal custody. No explanation. No charges. No apology. One day, I was just told, 'you’re free to go.'" #KavanaughStop

A juxtaposition of two screenshots from Fox News shows host Jesse Watters interviewing a masked guest who appears to be the same person in both images. In the top image, the guest is labeled “Former Antifa Member Speaks Out” and wears a green cap and black patterned face covering. In the lower image, the same man, now identified as “Ramon ‘Mundo’ Mendoza, Mexican Mafia Encyclopedia Author,” wears a black cap and balaclava. The caption beneath the second screenshot reads: “Ex-gang member says Chauvin attacker’s story doesn’t add up — AlphaNews.org.”

New pointing Spider-Man meme just dropped.

Happens every time, website gets its start and its most popular content from marginalized people, that content brings people in, more people means more to moderate that the website isn't willing to accomodate, marginalized folks speak out, marginalized folks get punished. Tumblr. Bsky. all the same.

It was a hot boiling pot, ready for trouble. -KYOKO ODA, Tule Lake incarceration camp survivor

When Japanese Americans were sent to incarceration camps by the U.S. government during World War II, those deemed "disloyal" were sent to Tule Lake.

Over 24K people were detained in the notorious camp, which had a higher military presence, overcrowding, and unrest due to dehumanizing conditions.

The fact they jumped straight to AI actors modeled after women when, if I’m not mistaken, male actors are a higher labor cost kind of says it all doesn’t it,

really should get around to writing my take that "AI uprising/robot uprising" fiction is just barely sublimated fear of domestic slave revolt

The very first statute authorizing domestic use of the military during domestic emergencies, enacted in 1792 by a Congress full of the same folks who wrote and ratified the Constitution, expressly provided for judicial review in certain circumstances *before* the President could even send troops.

history teacher in 50 years: So in September, that’s when the president signed an executive order criminalizing anti-fascism and saying all resistance would be crushed

student: oh so that’s when the whole country realized they were living under fascism

teacher: haha what? oh no lol not at all. no.

ok, so, this is a thing where I think Star Wars literally depicts something that is now metaphysically true

you know the guy who yells "your droids don't belong in here?" him doing that makes sense because it likely implies he or his family were in the Clone Wars on the Republic side

It’s essential that you find common ground with Trump supporters. For instance, you know that you have many flaws, and they believe you are less than human. Work with that.
