It’s -9 degrees. Downtown Minneapolis is packed for the anti-ICE rally and the crowd keeps growing

in case you're curious about how angry Minnesota is about ICE, it was -20 today

Yeah, the only reason we're hearing about this person is because they (might) be trans. The press is just bringing this up to try to tie trans people to something we had nothing to do with.

man they really didn't give a shit about that guy. as soon as it was clear they couldn't use his death to launch a purge they started to treat it like a nothingburger

The simple fact of the world is that the vast majority of mass shooters fit a fairly basic profile: Cishet white men with right leaning but completely incomprehensible politics, bigoted in ways that don't super make sense and driven mostly by delusions of grandeur and petty slights.

Essentially, when you install a Ring you’ve become a volunteer cop.

this is interesting but not for the reason anti-bluesky people think because threads, having far more β€œactive users” than bluesky, has half the cultural impact it does. does anything come from threads other than brand posts?

Spectacular news - the Medicaid ban for transgender care is OUT as a result of the Byrd rule.

"B-b-but the public disapproves of Trump's policies!"

Yes, which is why it's insane that Dems are unable to capitalize on that.

Anybody with any self respect who had a boss treat them like this in public would resign immediately.

One bright spot for trans people in Montana: Today's SCOTUS decision does not touch Montana. That's because Montana overturned its gender affirming care ban through the state Supreme Court. States are allowed to have protections that go beyond the US constitution, and thus that ruling is unaffected.

MASSIVE good news for trans people in the United States.

A federal judge has just granted class action status to transgender people looking to update their passports.

This means that very shorty, the window will open to update your passports with the correct gender marker.

FTC Announces Workshop on Exploring Unfair or Deceptive Trade Practices in β€œGender-Affirming Care” for Minors

The workshop will include presentations from doctors, specialists, medical ethicists, whistleblowers, detransitioners, and parents.

FTC's latest move is to see how many trans kids they can kill. This is dangerous and beyond stupid, and way beyond anything the FTC is supposed to have authority over.

I'll never forget that Linda Tirado lost an eye and is dying from TBI-induced dementia caused by a cop shooting her in the face by a rubber bullet at the George Floyd protests.

I can't believe any Democrat would THINK of allying with Elon Musk.

I won't take money from the guy who does a Hitler salute. It's really that simple.

I still think this is one of the most gutting notes I’ve ever read.

Defying DeSantis, Florida Pride Marchers Light Up Jacksonville Bridge with Rainbow Organizers demonstrated that they didn’t need state permission for queer visibility.

1. Florida banned cities from lighting up bridges rainbow colors for Pride.

So the people of Jacksonville did it themselves using flashlights and gels.

They opened the drawbridge to block them.

So they marched to a different bridge.

private equity taking over and immediately creating Discorb, the real life texting micro transaction that everyone will hate, is a little too on the nose

I still think the best idea for progressive donors is to just revive every alt-weekly in the country and staff them with 10 reporters each.

Unironically they should buy up the domains for about 60 defunct local newspapers in swing states. Hire two reporters to write almost exclusively about highschool sports and new restaurants opening with every 10th article about how the local GOP is screwing over people.

It doesn't get reiterated enough that "human on a bicycle" is not only the most efficient way that a person can move, it's the most efficient form of motion ***ever observed in land animals***.

Well, every Chinese tea at Dobra has a tariff notice on it. Good on them. This is the bit by bit damage the mushbrained idiot and his ghoul advisors are doing to our economy.
