Compare the SC ruling on gay marriage to that on trans passports.Trans existence challenges RW belief that gender=immutable, rests on biology, & determines one’s status. You can’t pick your place in patriarchy: it’s determined at birth! Trans folks undermine fascism in ways gay marriage never will.

Vote Mamdani! I would if I could vote in NY city.

Does “Antifa” exist as an actual organization? I always thought it was a vaguely defined collective adjective coined by cops. Which makes it convenient for Trump’s hit men to apply it as widely as they wish.

The surprising recovery of once-rare birds It’s not every day that you see a 4-foot-tall bird, but it’s happening more often. Several fascinating species are nesting in and near towns once again.

🦅Good news! Once-rare birds like sandhill cranes, pileated woodpeckers and merlins are making a comeback.

Conservation efforts show how quickly nature can rebound when given the chance.

Wow, this is really impressive.
Calling a racist a racist.

“One way to fight a profit-driven system that treats people as disposable is to instead treat people as redeemable. Solidarity means not writing anyone off completely, not throwing anyone away. It holds out hope that systems & individuals can change."

Officially out in paperback as of yesterday.

A close friend has the perfect response to the allegation that 10-year-old kids (or whatever age) are too young to know and understand what gender they are. “Maybe all kids, then, should be prescribed puberty blockers."

Please do everything you can to help the people of Gaza. As Angela Davis says, Palestine is the litmus test. #FreePalestine

It’s past time to start calling the American regime genocidal. Not only for rounding up people into concentration camps, but because the foundational logic driving policies is that only “healthy, productive, working” people deserve to live & everyone else is marginal or disposable.

I’m guessing that Clinton’s endorsement helped Mamdani...

SO MANY elite liberals refuse to abandon the delusions that Zionism=antisemitism & Dems are losing cuz they’re just too damned inclusive & progressive. Such determined blindness will guarantee more fascism.

The US media doin’ its job, manufacturing consent.

Recovering from jet-lag in style.

Serious question: is RFK a sociopath? ’m beginning to wonder if his goal is a genocidal thinning of the US (and soon) global population through the spread of formerly contained or eliminated communicable viruses.

So, will the Democratic Party now throw its massive money and weight against Mamdani in the general election…? (Silly question, I know!)

Some of us do, but I’m not a New Yorker. 😥

Netanyahu wants war. But there had been no change in Iran’s position- or in their building of nukes. No urgent reason to involve US. Trump used a massive bomb - “Ordnance Penetrator (MOP)’ for the first time in US combat history. Trump naively posted “ completed”

We have no idea what has begun

Please, liberals, let’s not go there! It’s entirely plausible that the American voters who chose to come out elected an authoritarian president.

60% chance! YAY!!!

Protests are up enormously, but reporting of those protests—other than running clips of burning Waymos—is practically nonexistent.

Is RFK a sociopath, wanting to promote mass death?

This is an outrageous and utterly indefensible use of force and coercion!!! Are any of the armed men even wearing forms of identification that you can’t just buy at a military surplus store?

Three years ago today! First openly queer trans priest ordained in the Diocese of New Westminster, Anglican Church of Canada! Thanks be to God!
