Here's the "take"
Pete was asked about trans issues (300+bills targeting 1%of the population, rampant violence, rhetoric calling that we be "eradicated from public life", restrictions to healthcare, denial of travel documents), and he decided to focus on trans women (all 12 of them!) in sports.

Remember, what is "smut" or "adult content" has always had VERY loose boundaries where conservatives are concerned. It is a small step for them from outright porn to anything that they deem "inappropriate"... including queer themes and identities. You HAVE to hold the line for everyone.

ignore it. dont say a god damn thing. i don't care how personally offended, or hurt, or whatever, you are. Do. Not. Publicly. Speak. Against. Another. Trans. Woman.

Remember that instead of putting energy into cancelling random trans women, you could help me get cans of food to people.

Talking to a friend's four year old kid about that kpop demon hunter show.
"The demons are really scary-- they try to take your soul"
"What's a soul?"
"It's like your bones."

Do random people feel like they know how to get involved with resistance and protest movements right now? Is the onboarding process for political activism smooth?

I find the hdg orthodoxy somewhat squicky, and I feel like your tendency to either give wholesome ends or lampshaded bad ends would make a really good take on the setting

I'm actually shocked by the lack of hdg fanfic contributions

Freedom from kings.
Freedom from fascism.
Power to the people forever. ♥️

Happy Independence Day 🇺🇸

“thank god nobody told me about transsexuals as a child, or else i mightve transitioned to be a girl” writes miserable self hating gay man who regularly wakes up in a cold sweat wanting to claw his own flesh off just so he can feel something other than the sickening wrongness of his own existence

The White House has ordered the US Dept. of Justice to prioritize denaturalization: voiding the citizenship of US citizens.

Who will it denaturalize? "Any" case that it "determines to be sufficiently important".

Point 10 leaves the criteria opaque and arbitrary.

It was so nice to meet you, Jo!!! Thank you for stopping by! Can’t wait to win this with you 💕💕

hey remember when a rich ceo died then when they caught the suspect they made a circus of it like they found osama bin laden and charged him with terrorism but less than weeks ago two democrat lawmakers and their spouses were shot as literal assassination to shift control and everyone already forgot

Maybe extend the graph out to the year in question rather than 11 years before?

Zohran Mamdani’s plan to tax the rich is a 2% tax on income over $1 million.

If you make $1.1 million, you’d pay an extra $2,000.

Watching working class conservatives and politicians completely meltdown about this is wild.

I love already having people blocked

honestly does seem like the basic dynamic in american politics right now is that a critical number of voters treat Democrats like their (nagging) mom or their (bitch) wife and treat Republicans like the “cool” dad or husband who is at best a deadbeat

they’ll elect a republican and then four years later stand in the doorway crying asking “why he don’t want me”

You're cooking

ICE has only existed since 2003. A Bush-era creation, it is a militarized federal secret police that has been imbued with the Supreme Court with the unconstitutional power to ignore the fourth amendment.

Abolishing it and salting the earth where it grew is the moderate stance.

I think it's time people begin to accept this epoch either ends with america under completely authoritarian rule or with crimes against humanity tribunals

i stopped wearing red crosses more than a decade ago, because police *habitually* target medics.

this isn’t a one-off, it’s a deliberate choice they make over and over again.

it’s not “a few bad apples,” it’s widespread practice.

Medics, like journalists, are a form of ‘force multiplier’. Counter insurgents are aware of this & aim down force multipliers to weaken insurgent efforts early.

Protect your medics. Consider training crowd tactics that help you call for a medic w/o announcing your medic out loud.

Just want to be clear if everyone started doing it that would be an amazing outcome, all I care about is destroying ICE and if that means this starts spreading memetically then fuck yeah, I just ask that people not selling the movement out like fucking Sean McElwee

Moreover, ICE must be destroyed

Elon Musk says he'll 'decommission' SpaceX's Dragon spacecraft after Trump threatens his businesses Elon Musk said SpaceX would decommission its Dragon spacecraft "immediately" after Trump threatened his government contracts in their online feud.

Time to reverse this nonsense about privatization.
Nationalize Space X and roll it into NASA.

Jonathan Joss was Comanche and Apache and an openly gay actor.

He was murdered while looking at the remains of his dogs at his own house that was burnt down.

The killer yelled homophobic slurs before shooting him.

This is the real world consequences of the hatred that the right commodifies
