The point of having a process is not to have a process to follow, but to generate a desired outcome. If the current process is so rigid that failure is the only option, then the process is not fit for the present moment. If we don't make the exception, R's will, & it won't be temporary.

Happy birthday!

Hi, my name is [YOUR NAME] and I'm one of Senator [THEIR NAME]'s constituents. House Republicans are trying to insert a multiple articles of anti-trans legislation, including a full transgender healthcare funding ban, into the F-Y '26 budget. I'm calling to tell the Senator to stand up for trans Americans and vote NO on any bill with that language. This IS worth forcing a shutdown. [you can stop here at 0:20 if you want to bail out—but it's better if you don't] This care funding ban follows the map the G-O-P charted while attacking abortion. Democrats lost that fight by giving in to the G-O-P an inch at a time. Giving an inch at a time on trans care will devastate trans Americans and it'll get Democrats nothing in return but contempt. [you can stop here at 0:40 if you want to bail out—but it's better if you don't] Right now, the most popular Democrat in the U-S, [Zo-RAHN Mom-DA-nee], is campaigning on making trans healthcare cheaper and easier to access, and he's only got more good will because of it. [you can stop here at 0:50 if you want to bail out—but it's better if you don't] I'm asking the Senator to refuse to allow any anti-trans language including a healthcare ban in the F-Y '26 bill. Do not vote for any bill with that language. This IS worth forcing a shutdown. Standing with trans people is the right thing to do and it's politically smart. Voters and donors show up for Democrats who fight.

so: what do we need you to do? two things.

Cute!

I hope the surgery goes well!

Simping for Trump is far more important to them than justice for Epstein's victims ever was.

I deleted mine in January because the algorithm was all AI slop, vatniks, and turbo bigots. I haven't missed it.

This loathsome interregnum is a period of vast uncertainty, sure, but it's also one of truly delirious opportunity.

If it was going to happen, and it was always going to happen, then we live now on the cusp of a magnificent work.

To live is to suffer, to survive is to have power over the world.

I kind of agree. I think most of his voters have a number of somewhat different ideological commitments, but all of them are driven by and increasingly secondary to the lust for petty expressions of unaccountable power.

Which is essentially what the article says.

At this point, I don't think they genuinely want to return to any imagined past. Their false nostalgia seems to be little more than a power fantasy unconcerned with any coherent idea of how things should be (except that they get to do what they want, and you also get to do what they want).

1. If you are not silly, you must become silly.
2. If you are silly, you must remain silly.
3. If you have stopped being silly, all effort must be made to return to silliness.

To my fellow cishet dudes: when we are quiet about supporting the trans community, the only voices anyone hears are the Charlie Kirks of the world. Don't let accusations of being "performative" or "virtue signaling" shut you up - that's their whole point. Our voices are needed now more than ever.

I think it would be neat to composite a fursuiter in visible light into one of these photos, especially if the false color is matched to their suit's color palette.

Really Bad Chess

Why is the media acting like this is so much worse than all the other politically motivated shootings? This happens all the time to us little people, and they never lower the flag for us. The media just reports on it like the weather. How many of us does it take to equal one demagogue?

We Need to Talk About Pedocon Theory The connection between Donald Trump and Jeffrey Epstein is no accident, but reveals a deep logic at the heart of reactionary politics.

This is the natural result of the idea that women should serve their husbands and that children are property. If a social system sees them as passive objects, their agency is irrelevant and consent doesn't matter.

This article is evergreen.

I don't even know what you mean by hardly any of this.

"Metaphysics" is a bizarre word to use here. It's just a basic mathematical model from Econ 101. But how would investors have 100% price control? Even informal cartels break up when someone defects, and the farther the price is from fair market value, the more likely that is.

Substitutability is when the good you want is unavailable, so you sub in another good for it. e.g. Someone might want a ritzy, new apartment in downtown SF, but they can only rent older apts if they insist on living in the city. Everything influences prices, but models are usually "all else equal."

Single payer systems have monopsony power. It's a lot harder to say no if your only other option is to exit the market entirely.

No, he must be impeached and removed.

Prices went down in Houston after they built a lot of new units. My point is building at any rate places downward pressure on prices by pushing the supply curve to the right & down, and since housing is partially substitutable, the low end can fall while the high end drives up the mean price paid.
