There’s an increase of activity in and out of the Whipple building this morning. If you have capacity, please observe in your neighborhood and help alert our neighbors of any ICE presence.

Transgender Chicago man hospitalized after saving baby from drowning in Lake Michigan “I wasn’t going to let that baby die,” Lio Cundiff said.

This 30-year-old transgender man, who can’t swim, jumped into Lake Michigan after a wind gust blew a baby in a stroller into the freezing water.

He’s being called a hero. But now he has medical expenses, and people are donating to a fundraiser to support him.

BREAKING: We're suing Kansas for a law that invalidates transgender people's updated driver's licenses and authorizes anyone to sue anyone they suspect of being trans for using the "wrong" bathroom.

DOD is essentially demanding that Anthropic create Terminators for them.

Good morning.

If you've just woken up, the politics of hope just crushed the politics of fear and hatred (Labour-Reform).

It wasn't even close.

40.6% for the Greens. Reform second on 28.7%, Labour third on 25.4%.

White text on blue sky above a palace in Madrid: European Writers Salon, Annual Salon 2026, Madrid, 25-27 September

Ticket for our Annual Salon in Madrid are on sale now!

If you’ve joined us before, you’ll know: European Writers salon is unlike any literary event you’ve been to. It isn't a conference. It's a weekend of creativity, surprise and community.

Below are some quotes from attendees last year...

As we said in 2015: All the SNP had to do to wallop Labour in Scotland - Scotland, heartland for decades! - was to be a bit more anti-austerity and do lot less pandering to the Sun on migration. But the smart lads didn’t want to hear it, and they threw a decade-long hysterical tantrum instead.

STRENGTH CRUSHES ENEMIES! DO YOU WANT TO TEXT A FRIEND?

it can't be overstated that most people in the US are generally apolitical and there are so many trans people who are no different -- what the kansas legislature did (and especially the way they did it) is going to cause immense harm to people who aren't as plugged in as we are on bsky

huh
what a weird coincidence

cis men learn to care about consent awful quick when AI of them is involved, I happen to notice

we've shipped out 984,000 whistles pretty much entirely driven by this website, and sent about $25-30k worth of requested supplies to the twin cities on top of it, AND we've begun bulk buying red cards for various immigrant rights groups.

bluesky gets shit done.

Hiya! Nice to see you.

RIGHT?

I remember this thread! It was A Lot but also it was correct.

NEVER believe Bradford Dillman.

This is one thing that needs to happen.

If the deal can be slowed until Dems (goddess willing) take the House, then the corruption will be a magnet for oversight.

We need a bunch of private sector lawsuits to get this blocked, suits from a diverse array of actors with possible standing including: members of congress, states, competing media organizations, literally anything mentioned in the monopoly and FCC case law.

You might have somehow ended up on a list. They may not even know. I wouldn't take it personally.

What we lack in digestive tract we make up for in loophole-finding.

i mean, in the onion, maybe, but COME ON

here's my proposed platform for dems in 2026:
1. we do not throw trans people under the bus
2. we do not throw red states under the bus
3. WE DO NOT THROW ANYBODY UNDER THE FUCKIN BUS WHAT THE FUCK IS WRONG WITH YOU
4. war crimes tribunals
