Since No One Else Seems to Care, Let’s Remember Epstein’s Survivors They've already told us everything we need to know...

As everyone … scrambles for further evidence of Trump’s connection to the prolific pedophile and sex-trafficker, what’s been—once again—lost in this discourse is the hundreds of women who survived the horrors Epstein, Ghislaine Maxwell, and their moneyed friends inflicted upon them.

Someone on here said that videogames offer a fantasy of predictable rewards for one's work, which in real life might not be rewarded at all. I think about it a lot!

Want to add that as people stop googling and start using chatGPT and other bots for searches… we have to know what they are searching to find answers.

ELIZABETH WARREN: What Zohran is saying is 'I want people to be able to afford to live in NYC'

When Is “Recyclable” Not Really Recyclable? When the Plastics Industry Gets to Define What the Word Means. Companies whose futures depend on plastic production are trying to persuade the federal government to allow them to put the label “recyclable” on plastic shopping bags and other items virtually…

Turning old plastic into new plastic is really, really hard.

Products made with dyes, flame retardants and other toxic chemicals create a health hazard when heated for recycling, severely limiting the products you can make from recycled plastic.

I support the Harbour Bridge protest – not in spite of my Holocaust heritage, but because of it Millions of people are at risk of being starved, killed and ethnically cleansed on a daily basis. The NSW Premier needs to get out of the way of this protest.

This is good, but I would also really like to see these same AGs put pressure on schools and hospitals that are violating state laws by capitulating to Trump threats and throwing trans people under the bus.

5. However, nobody has been federally prosecuted for the “crime” of providing trans care: There is no federal law prohibiting it. Instead, the legal system has become a political machine used to terrorize Americans. Trump has scared health care systems into compliance using a blunt object: fear.

A Line By Line Analysis Of Trump's Big Anti-Trans Executive Order Trump released over 70 executive orders on Monday. While orders on immigration and climate got a lot of attention, his anti-transgender order could have sweeping impacts as well.

4. This comes after the last eight months have been flooded with anti-trans animus in policy and law—Trump’s executive orders, as well as the directives and memos from his lackeys across federal agencies, have attacked everything from gender affirming care to trans girls in sports.

3. “The result is an atmosphere of fear and intimidation experienced by transgender individuals, their families and caregivers, and the medical professionals who seek only to provide necessary, lawful care to their patients," says the complaint.

Thank you @dcattorneygeneral.bsky.social for staying in this fight for ALL of US! Can’t wait to see you at the next @stonewalldems51.bsky.social meeting to discuss this and more

16 States (Plus Washington DC) Launch Joint Legal Fight for Trans Health Care “[The] DOJ’s intent in issuing the subpoenas is not enforcement of the specific prohibitions of those laws but the chilling of medical care with which the administration disagrees ideologically.”

1. 16 State AGs + Washington, D.C., have filed federal suit that the President is illegally intimidating healthcare providers into dropping trans care.

The legal battle could determine the fate of states’ rights to protect gender affirming care.
