Donate to Support Scottie's Recovery and Medical Care, organized by Abigail Iturra My best friend Scottie has not been feeling well the past week. It is still… Abigail Iturra needs your support for Support Scottie's Recovery and Medical Care

Hi guys, I am trying to crowd source funds to pay for my cat's urgent hospitalization bill. The bill is currently at $5400 but is to increase by another 2-4K since he needs to spend another 24-48hours. I would really appreciate any help you could offer <3

The CDC Has Been Gutted Thousands of CDC employees who worked on things like preventing HIV and lead poisoning have been told they were subject to a reduction in force. Experts say people will die.

This executive order requires RealID to vote, specifically. Regular licenses won't work

Only 61.2% of license holders currently have RealID

If you're not one of them, get your ID NOW. NOW. TODAY. Because this will likely not be the last thing you'll need one for

The thing about abortion and gender affirming care is that they're both issues of bodily autonomy, entirely up to the person who's getting them. They're objectively good. There should be no stigma with controlling your own body. Controlling your body is awesome!

Can you explain what it means to constitute something as a foreign affairs function? Is that the exception you refer to?

🚨 Holy crap. Marco Rubio is seemingly purporting to exempt nearly all immigration regulations and policy, along with things like export controls, trade rules, and more, from notice and comment rulemaking requirements.

Defend the liberty of a stranger as you would defend your own, or that of a loved one, because that is what's actually on the tableβ€”whether we are a society that will sit still as our neighbors are snatched in the night, and disappeared into darkness, or a society that will fight for each other.

Columbia’s overblown response & decision to launch a PR campaign against activists is what landed it in the spotlight in the first place as protests were breaking out nationally. Ya played yourself.

His late notebooks which are today known at "The Will to Power" were put together and egregiously edited by his Nazi-sympathetic sister. Much work has been done over the years to undo this stain. Nietzsche would roll in his grave if he knew that Nazi soldiers carried his books in their coat pocket 😭

The way Nietzsche's thought has been utterly abused for the sake of Nazi propaganda always boils my blood. It really is a shame. Nietzsche was a deep and contradictory thinker, with limits of application, but nevertheless a hopeful philosopher-artist that hated all forms of nationalism.

The final vote: 51-45, with 4 people absent.

CLOTURE FAILS, A CONGRESSIONAL SPORTS BAN WILL NOT HAPPEN.

Democrats hold firm, not a single dem voted for cloture.

MAJOR victory for everyone who called in today and this week in support of trans people.

The DOGE Takeover Is Worse Than You Think What’s happening to the US government right now is bad. What comes next is worse.

Okay... we feel like we say this every week but *a lot* of stuff happened. Let's break it down, starting with @brbarrett.bsky.social on why the DOGE takeover is worse than you think... (sorry, but you gotta read this one.)

The New McCarthyism: LGBTQ+ Purges In Government Begin After Chris Rufo leaked LGBTQ+ chatlogs from the intelligence community, Gabbard has announced that all those who participated in the chats will be fired.

1. Today, the NYT has reported that 100 members of an ERG-adjacent LGBTQ+ chat in the intelligence community have been fired.

This is a new McCarthyism, a new lavender scare meant to remove LGBTQ+ in government, and the way this was done should shake us all.

I refuse to believe this sort of thing is just a kink, very much patriarchal abuse fantasies. 100% red flag if someone likes this stuff and they are not themselves a lesbian. freaks me out 😣

As a political scientist who studies countries that managed to stop the slide into authoritarianism, I can assure you that ***refraining from provoking the authoritarian*** is not how it works.

Without further ado, I will now go tear out another chunk of hair.

I know there’s a lot right now. But folks need to understand what this means.

A suspension this long would mean people living with HIV lose their medicine for months. People around the world lose their PrEP for months, putting millions at risk of getting HIV. Drug-resistant strains could emerge.
