This kind of thing has been standard policing since Marsha P Johnson's dead body was found in the Hudson River following an argument with some transphobes and was immediately ruled a suicide and left uninvestigated by police

I have said it before & I will say it again: sometimes nothing sells a book like a 1 star review.

I am certain this 1 star review will sell this book to at least one of you.

She is a black history hero completely against her will 💔 but still we exhalt her name. I’m so sorry this happened to you Ms Henrietta. Her complex rich history is the reason so many of us are alive today

Have to bump this as it gets harder as the unemployment gets longer.
I’m getting to a desperate stage, but I recognize others are in worse shape than me. If you can help, in any way, thank you so much.

I have been using Proton docs and I like it. It has a lot of features that google docs has and I like that it is end-to-end encrypted.

I just shared a doc to a friend outside of proton and she was able to look and interact with the edits easily.

Kansas Sends Letters To Trans People Demanding The Immediate Surrender Of Drivers Licenses "The legislature did not include a grace period."

It seems all Kansas-issued trans drivers' licenses are invalid, effective tomorrow

It is now illegal for trans people to drive a car until they surrender their license at a DMV (that most will need to drive to) and have it reissued with the wrong gender marker

This was never about woman's sports

Jerry Lawson, the inventor of the video game cartridge.

Jerry Lawson, the inventor of the video game cartridge.

This is Jerry Lawson. He invented the video game cartridge for the Fairchild Channel F system. Because of his invention, many consoles had cartridges and CD formats and would become the norm.

The Atari 2600, NES, Genesis, and many consoles wouldn't exist without him.

Happy Black History Month.

If you want a comic by a black creator trying to make headway out in the world, you can do no better than to support Lorenzo who is out here doing his best to tell good tales and put them out into the world. A good man who does good work 👍🏾

As a Black man with Tourette Syndrome, the Public Advocate has some thoughts on BAFTA, Pt. 1:

Hear about his experience with Coprolalia, his thoughts on how BAFTA mishandled the moment, and the need for care for all who are harmed:

Michael B Jordan 'disgusted by racial slur at BAFTAS as parents left in tears' Michael B Jordan was with Delroy Lindo on stage to present an award at the Baftas when John Davidson’s outburst shocked the audience.

So... does anyone care about this? That Michael B. Jordan's parents flew to London to see their son and they left the BAFTAs in tears? That he was repulsed?

Still don't think an apology was owed? Some of you people are wretched fools.

The correct answer here is HONEYCRISP APPLES because apple farmers despise them, they require a ton more pesticides & fungicides to grown than other apple varieties, they’re expensive, and we could be eating soooo many other delicious apples right now if we were free from the honeycrisp stranglehold

I just want to live in a country where the leader can’t enrich themselves with our tax dollars, the government does what the people want, and the wealthy have to follow the laws.

You know, like a democracy.

Workers’ resolve drives increase in unionization in 2025 In 2025, 16.5 million workers in the United States were represented by a union—an increase of 463,000 from 2024 and the highest number of unionized workers in the U.S. in 16 years. These 16.5 million ...

Nearly *half a million more U.S. workers* were represented by a union in 2025 than 2024.

In a time of fear, and uncertainty, working people want greater agency in the workplace and in making policy that shapes their lives.
