If We Valued Sex Workers, the Outcome of the Diddy Trial Would Have Been Different What if Diddyโ€™s victims were protected by labor laws instead of relying on the lack of justice of a sexist trial?

In light of the Diddy sentencing, this is a great time to revisit @freeblackgirl.bsky.social's killer post on the trial and who holds value for @theflytrapmedia.com

It can be both true that we should've protested the Jimmy Kimmel incident and Black women have not been afforded the same support.

Black women often get the shaft, and we should all be pointing that out. We should be fighting for Joy Reid, Melissa Harris Perry, Tiffany, etc.

Iโ€™m here to tell you, you were right.

Itโ€™s great that Taylor Swift is getting married. Too bad disabled people still canโ€™t without losing their benefits.

Pierre Poilievre responds to news a nurse was fined for being virulently transphobic with the following: A nurse with a spotless track record gets fined and suspended for pointing out there are two genders, and for praising world renowned
author & women's rights advocate @jk rowling.
This is authoritarian censorship.
We must restore free speech and free thinking in a free country.

Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre comes wants to make sure everyone knows he's a full blown transphobe, in case there was any doubt.

He even included a shout out to JK Rowling. This hate should be disqualifying from any politician.

"women's rights advocate" go fuck yourself

Screenshot of a social media post by @andrew.gurza. The profile picture shows a man with short dark hair and a white shirt, smiling broadly against a bright blue background. The post reads: "we donโ€™t treat disabled people well, good, or right in hospital settings. how tf are you supposed to heal when dealing with medical ableism in a supposed โ€œsafe spaceโ€? The ripple effects of medical ableism cannot be understated. It needs to be studied."

They are trying to pull this shit nationwide inc a London conference. Worth remembering that there was a loud subset of masc white gay cis men in interwar Germany who saw Nazism & "no homo" homosexuality as natural bedfellows. They served the fascists & were murdered by them.

Fighting for disability rights has to include fighting for people whose symptoms of their disability that may make you uncomfortable (i.e. people with schizophrenia).

The stage of malnutrition in Gaza is so advanced that only specialist hospitals and weeks of intensive care can help someone make a recovery. Not a FULL recovery, either.

They know this not only looks good, but will kill countless starving people who die in vain from refeeding syndrome.

im always taken aback by just how much cis people will humiliate themselves to be dicks to trans people. like sorry, youre confused about pronouns? how did you make it thru 6th grade english you slimy dipshit? why are you going on podcasts to advertise youre too stupid to understand simple concepts?

Might start watching again... the *only* CBS show I'd watch now, just to see what No Fucks To Give Colbert is capable of. Might be fun. It'd be kinda funny if it became the highest rated show on all of CBS for the next 10 months, if I'm being perfectly honest about how petty I'm willing to be.

I have started a fundraiser for a travel Hoyer Lift and because this past weekend the lift I rented did not work at all, and 3 people had to lift me in bed.  This is incredibly unsafe for all.

Also, my very specialized shower chair keeps breaking and tilting unexpectedly all by itself, making showering a fun experience for me!

I am asking for donations to raise money for a lift that can fold up and go on a plane when I travel, so I can be lifted safely in bed.  I am also asking for donations so I can shower safely.

What CBS' disgraceful termination of Stephen Colbert illustrates is how quickly a Republic can fall when the media chooses cowardice instead of courage.
