Livin’ the dream in a fascist regime.

love all the memes but I'd like to suggest an amendment:

I would very much like to go lie in the moss in my backyard for about a week.

Girls no longer just want to have fun, girls want revenge.

there are so many crimes to point to in the second trump administration i would hardly know where to begin to enumerate them all, but surely one of them i will kindle my rage over for years to come is that he has made all of the coolest women i know so incredibly anxious 24/7/365

1. Short everything
2. Announce tariffs
3. Close out short positions
4. Buy the dip
5. Call off the tariffs
6. Sell the spike
7. Repeat

Is there any reason to believe Trump's entire inner circle isn't doing this?

@benniethompson.bsky.social calls for hearings after stories about Trump eliminating cyber offense and analysis against Russia: "To capitulate now, as we appear to bail on our allies in Ukraine, is an inexplicable dereliction of duty that puts American critical infrastructure at risk."

Apparently we aren't going to talk about LockBit as a threat anymore. https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025/feb/28/trump-russia-hacking-cyber-security

Good going "cybersecurity isn't political" chucklenuts. You're cooked. We're cooked.

My illegal Pinkerton is driving me to my illegal hotel while the hallucination machine in my phone summarizes the emails my coworkers wrote using their hallucination machines. My burrito travels separately in its own limo. This is innovation and normal.

Cool cyberpunk future: I slip on my synth overcoat and head out into the rainy neon of mega city hoping for a bowl of cricket ramen.

The future we got: I slip on my crocs and try to get the walgreens employee to unlock a tube of toothpaste and wear a mask because no one believes in vaccines.

This is what revisionist history looks like, in real time. And this also is why it might appear that archaeologists and historians have to dig deep to discover the existence of powerful women and marginalized groups -- because their legacies are so often erased.

What you can do, right now, for your trans and nonbinary friends, family, students and colleagues. It’s very reasonable to be worried and trying to understand how to help. Here are some actionable suggestions for the short and medium term.

is it good or bad that a billionaire oligarch with close ties to foreign dictators is currently downloading the most sensitive information the us federal government has about its citizens to his own private servers?

I can’t doomscroll all of this and retain sanity. Someone come get me when the US has fallen; I’ll be in my basement.

Abandoning trans people is 'fascist logic', says leading feminist philosopher Leading feminist philosopher Judith Butler has declared that abandoning trans people or any minority is operating within 'fascist logic'.

Eliminate Eliminationism from the Trans Question One can debate the scope and limits of trans rights but not with those who deny their right to exist

The MAGA right wants to present their trans policies as a reaction to overreach. But the reality is they simply want to impose a world where trans people cannot functionally exist.

It’s naked eliminationism

For those keeping count at home, Meta lets folks incite gender-based hate in the name of free speech, but if one of its employees dares to tell the truth about what its CEO says then there is zero tolerance.

Be very cautious. They will not return any of my documents either. #trans #travelban #arrest #transrights #LGBTQ #humanrights #lawyer TikTok video by Gentle Reality - dessert iykyk

A trans woman goes to get a new passport and is told at first she can get one with a male marker and then that she can't get one at all.

Restricting the travel of marginalized groups. Sound familiar?

Yes, this administration is dangerous and cruel, but they are also shockingly dim and incompetent.

Opportunities are everywhere.

Make everything as hard as possible. Resist every demand. Refuse entry without a warrant. Don’t take the buyout. Their problem solving skills are 📉

It’s almost as if putin’s wildest dreams for dismantling the foundations of the US government are all coming true for some utterly unknowable reason. 🤔

I am not at all enjoying the many rounds of ‘I told you this would happen’ that I have been forced into today.
