A women's soccer star is the target of an anti-trans activist - Outsports Barbra Banda's peers in the NWSL stood up for her when the head of an anti-trans fashion brand tried to demean her.

Transphobes are already targeting the biggest star in women's soccer and baselessly alleging she's a man because she's Black. This is what trans people warned would happen. Gender policing that becomes explicitly racial.

The media is about to blitz us with stories about how awful Maduro is and I want you to remember that even if they're all true, they are being issued solely for the purpose of manufacturing consent for invading Venezuela and killing innocent people.

Is it censored or broken into sub emoji? There seems to be an issue with multicharacter emojis of all kinds displaying as the individual emoji that make it up. Not a TikTok user to check for myself :P

Your Warframe streams got me back into the game after a couple years away just in time to fall in love with the latest new frame. He's a mushroom! <3

if the government was actually shut down they would stop taking your taxes

federal student debt would stop accruing interest

Argentina wouldn’t get a $40Bn bailout

Israel wouldn’t keep getting shipments of bombs

and we wouldn’t blow up fishing boats

but it’s not shut down at all.

This is appalling and if Xbox doesn’t do something about it then they’re on the line for this marketing too

I would like to once again state for the record that building an entire sociomaterial culture— especially regarding housing, healthcare, and food— out of a combination of "caveat emptor," "fuck you I got mine," and "YOLO" actually really fucking sucks

“America is the wealthiest nation on Earth, but its people are mainly poor, and poor Americans are urged to hate themselves. To quote the American humorist Kin Hubbard, 'It ain’t no disgrace to be poor, but it might as well be.' It is in fact a crime for an American to be poor, even though America is a nation of poor. Every other nation has folk traditions of men who were poor but extremely wise and virtuous, and therefore more estimable than anyone with power and gold. No such tales are told by the American poor. They mock themselves and glorify their betters. The meanest eating or drinking establishment, owned by a man who is himself poor, is very likely to have a sign on its wall asking this cruel question: 'if you’re so smart, why ain’t you rich?' There will also be an American flag no larger than a child’s hand – glued to a lollipop stick and flying from the cash register. Americans, like human beings everywhere, believe many things that are obviously untrue. Their most destructive untruth is that it is very easy for any American to make money. They will not acknowledge how in fact hard money is to come by, and, therefore, those who have no money blame and blame and blame themselves. This inward blame has been a treasure for the rich and powerful, who have had to do less for their poor, publicly and privately, than any other ruling class since, say Napoleonic times. Many novelties have come from America. The most startling of these, a thing without precedent, is a mass of undignified poor. They do not love one another because they do not love themselves.”

reading slaughterhouse 5 for the first time and i was absolutely knocked senseless by this passage, which is so true and relevant that it feels like it was pulled from a history book

A portion of every dollar spent on Harry Potter merchandise goes to anti-transgender campaigns.

Ooo I like it... Gruff unshaven Elijah all uncomfortable about how attracted he is to the twinky R Daneel... OK, this is now my head canon.

Tens of millions of people have died from Covid.

Every country should have responded with record investments in public health infrastructure.

Instead the US government is putting us all at greater risk of more catastrophes by firing hundreds of top scientists whose job is to prevent outbreaks.

Welcome to the capitalist innovation museum we got

- scam machine
- psychosis inducing machine
- weapons of mass destruction
- button you push that makes the planet hotter
- markets that intentionally starve people
- clothes that fall apart after washing them 1 time
- medicine you can’t afford

Believes in a diety that punishes transgressors.

Believes the ills they are suffering are spiritual in origin.

Doesn't see any possible connection between these ideas.
