Unfollowing & possibly blocking a lot of folks calling transphobia anything other than a legitimate human rights issue that should concern all of us greatly. Wanting folks to defend human rights for all ppl isnโ€™t a purity test. Human rights for all should be a non-negotiable. No one is expendable.

Billionaire wealth has increased by 81 per cent since 2020. This comes as one in four people don't regularly have enough to eat and nearly half the world's population live in poverty.

I don't think many cis people realize how much...

1) Blatant transphobia and harassment by the "you have to support Newsom" crowd.

2) UK tearing apart trans rights under a centrist/liberal gov.

3) Blue state govs refusing to enforce trans protections.

Is reshaping how we see liberals and Dems.

It sucks just how consistently the mafia is a good lens with which to view the ruling class.

In the mob you can murder rivals or associates at your discretion. But you have to get permission to hit made men or be killed yourself.

Pogrund and Yorke are made men so attacking *them* is very bad.

A fabricated statement from Nintendo of America's Twitter account addressing a fictitious scenario in which the Earth's oxygen supply is presumed to be depleting at a rapid pace, leaving humanity with mere days to live.

"This is Miyamoto. On behalf of everyone who is employed at Nintendo Co. LTD and its subsidiaries, we deeply mourn the countless human lives which will be lost due to the depletion of the global oxygen supply. To anyone who has ever played one of our games, we are eternally grateful to have created long-lasting fun and memories for you. To ease the suffering of families and children across the world, the Mario Kart World game for the Nintendo Switch 2 system will be available as a free download on Nintendo eShop for the foreseeable future. We hope this small gesture of kindness will ease the pain as humanity prepares for a worst-case scenario."

The statement is distastefully plastered with logos for Nintendo and Nintendo Switch 2, as well as with a render of Mario from Mario Kart World.

Had a dream that there was global panic about the world running out of oxygen, Nintendo was the only video game company to make a statement about it, and the internet collectively spent its final hours on Earth debating whether Nintendo was being genuine or not

On Nov. 16, a mental health counselor recorded in Kamillaโ€™s medical records that her mother reported the girl had lost her appetite after being โ€œserved food that contained worms.โ€

A week later, the couple said, children were told to gather in the gym for what they believed would be a Thanksgiving celebration. Excitement spread as families saw tables set with turkey, sandwiches, pastries and pies, they said. The children waited expectantly. But when a parent asked when the celebration would begin, Oksana said, staff told them the holiday meal was for employees, not detainees.

The children, she said, watched despondently as the feast was packed away.

On Thanksgiving, the immigrant children held at the Dilley detention center gathered in the gym for what they thought was a holiday feast.

The kids salivated over a spread of turkey, sandwiches, pastries and pies, a family told me.

But the food wasnโ€™t for detainees โ€” it was for the staff.

ICE says federal agents appear to have lied about confrontation that led to shooting Officers claimed they were attacked, prompting one to open fire.

This was the night that ICE threw a flash bang at a car containing six childrenโ€ฆ one of whom was a 6 month old baby who stopped breathing

Then the shot a Venezuelan man in the leg who was running home.

The agents lied. Noem backed up those lies.

They lie to justify atrocities

Numerous accusations from critical media outlets claimed the clinic was a โ€œtransing factoryโ€ that ignored โ€œholisticโ€ approaches to care and was recklessly prescribing puberty suppressant hormones, known as puberty blockers, to children.

One article from The Times, published in 2022, claimed that at least 1,000 families were planning mass legal action against the Tavistock gender clinic for rushing youngsters into taking puberty blockers.

However, a freedom of information (FOI) request to the Tavistock and Portman NHS Foundation Trust, shared by Yorkshire Bylines, revealed that, between 2012 and 2022, only eight complaints over healthcare provisions had been lodged.

This entire 'debate' is so maddening. We have been promised that a groundswell of rushed, dissatisfied detransitioners was about to emerge for nearly a decade.

Not only have they never materialized, but academic research continues to show small numbers, long assessments and miniscule regret rates.
