Bird speaks for me.

Speaking loudly to cover for his small...whatever it is.

Anti-Hate Summit Highlights the Funding Struggle As Violence Escalates The Eradicate Hate Global Summit was a reminder that securing funding remains a challenge for organizations confronting hate-based violence.

For @insidephilanthropy.com, a look at what the recent Eradicate Hate Global Summit reveals re: the funding landscape for combating hate-fueled violence. Spoiler: fundraising for this work is harder than countering Nazis. #philanthropy

Absolutely. I was raised primarily by two very damaged women who were highly misanthropic with a special disgust for other women. Those were hard, weird years, but fortunately I'm still here and they're both gone.

I clearly don't remember enough about it. As a girl in the 70's, I do remember just accepting the sexism because at that time it was all considered so normal.

"Stranger" was one of my first SF books, all of which were loaned to me by my best friend's older brother (and my first loooove). I was intellectually gifted and emotionally stunted/overly sheltered and I remember loving it. That was almost 50 years ago, though. What did you hate about it?

My body agrees; at least, with my workout regimen cheese alone just Won't Do It.

My first RHPS experience was literally one of the most fundamental in my early life. "Wait, what?!? I'm NOT some kind of mutant?" I mean, I probably am, but not when it comes to sexuality...

*We've got to stop using sanitized words like "detention." These are kidnappings, and human beings are being imprisoned in concentration camps. "Detained" makes it sound like they've been stopped and asked to pose for a photo.

Speaking as a journalist (though not for those outlets), what the press owes us are accurate stories, told with sensitivity for the families of the kidnapped people who were killed.* Doing that right takes even more time in a climate where those in charge are compulsive liars and idiots.

How about discussing the police state he's creating? Or Secretary Brain Worm's antagonism toward medical science? Or the ICE concentration camps? Gods, you folks are worse than worthless in these times.

Also the Wall Street Journal and Sean Hannity.

Philanthropies and Nonprofits Speak Out Against Attacks on First Amendment Three coalitions representing over 800 funders and nonprofits have taken a stand against the assault on their First Amendment rights.

#GoodNewsFriday In response to attacks on the 1st Amendment, 3 separate coalitions representing #philanthropy, #nonprofits, and a million Americans have drawn a line in the sand. @publiccitizen.bsky.social @borealisphil.bsky.social @solidaire.bsky.social @insidephilanthropy.com

How about cutting back ICE, calling for the impeachment of Pam Bondi, and otherwise protecting the 1st Amendment? #growaspine

"Get away from our government YOU BITCHES!!!"

Sure, the regime is kidnapping people off the streets to throw them in concentration camps and threatening the livelihoods of people and orgs that disagree with them whether or not they've broken any laws. But hey, you go ahead and concentrate on this. This is surely what's important right now.

They also aren't starving.

Absolutely spot-on. Thank you for saying what so many other outlets wouldn't.

This is not a "federal crackdown on crime." This is the deployment of US troops on US soil in an authoritarian crackdown on democracy. WTH, @nytimes.com?

Valid point. At the same time, there are some interesting discussions to be had about the degree to which even "moderate" conservatism has degraded into extremism over the past 4+ decades, but I just don't have the energy.

Given that the people you refer to as "the few" are in charge at every level of the party, they are literally representing the whole.

I was never angry about sports, but the point really hits home today.

What a horrible way to die. No one should be put through that, and no one should lose a loved one that way. My deepest sympathies to everyone who knew and cared about him, no matter who they are. Grief comes for all of us equally.

But I thought we were all weak, woke, beta cucks or something like that? It's so hard to keep track...

It is not the responsibility of every reader of a post to have to research the claims made in that post. Your argument leads to exactly what we now have -- an online world that erodes trust. "Could be possible" is irrelevant.

Thank you for taking a stand, Governor.

Just because it's easy to believe doesn't make it true. Notice the lack of evidence provided. We're living in an age of easy lies; always verify, and ask for receipts (proof).
