hi guys I know I haven't been very active lately, and I don't talk about where I'm from often, but the government made some really scary announcements today so I thought I'd share to let everyone know what's happening. here are some posts from twt for context
I remembered who he was halfway through typing!! Cee Marshall.
this is what we are doing to a nation, to a people, for no reason higher or more complex than: our president thinks it makes him look "tough" and "cool"
who could possibly be forgiven for this
Unthinkably depraved
These asshole twerps with no brains or education from DOGE really did use ChatGPT to find NEH grants to terminate ILLEGALLY - ruining hundreds lives and destroying hundreds of the greatest humanities projects and partnerships of our time. I’m overwhelmed with rage and anger all over again.
It's crazy to have deep respect for the guy who is using the product you built to help fascists surveil the world, but go off
Iran’s people were facing a horrible shortage of water before the war began. If we are destroying desalination plants and setting fire to Teheran we are committing unfathomable crimes.
Having some of the most thoroughly redacted thoughts of my life.
"While there are still very difficult days, I have begun to feel some improvement as I have gotten stronger physically and mentally," Hanne told Newsweek. She continued: "This experience has forced me to reconsider where I want to build my future. I entered the U.S. legally, paid tuition to attend college, paid taxes while working legally, and followed the rules. I understand that overstaying a visa may carry consequences. "However, I do not believe anyone deserves to nearly die in detention or suffer long-term physical, psychological, and financial harm as a result."
Her medical conditions were worsened by the treatment in warehouses that are not designed to care for the people she is processing. She is one of the "lucky" ones because she did not spend much time there and a court granted her legal status. But every detention is a life torn apart.
they knew they could get away with it because they practiced all those times on the “narco-terrorist” boats, where they also killed the survivors, and nobody sent them to The Hague about it so they are running completely unchecked right now with full use of the arsenal. I do not know how this ends
The refusal to even pretend to take what they're doing seriously is genuinely eating at me. It's people dying! Real people! Not fiction! Many of them children so far! This is so infantilizing, cheap, and degrading to all involved. Makes me feel lost and insane, which is maybe the point.
It really is a testament to both how absolutely addled his brain is and how thoroughly his admin is hiding negative information from him that he thinks doing some bombings means that he automatically controls a country and can run it as he sees fit
The future of the GOP is Nazi. People still aren't paying attention.
I tire of this world being endlessly strangled by monsters both big & small. Petulant goblins with tiny minds. Deceitful ghouls with self-serving toxic dreams who eagerly turn the rest of us into living mournful ghosts.
May they die knowing that they are wholly unloved & the cause of their own ruin
Pillars for the isometric style because the ruleset is more intuitive and the length is a little more manageable. Baldurs Gate for the story because the titles chain together in a more impressive way and lead to slightly wilder places.
BREAKING: SCOTUS shadow docket decision rules in favor of forced outing of trans students, reinstating a lower court ruling against California's law prohibiting forced outing. Also references forcing teachers to misgender trans students. Horrific precedent.

Be nice if the US wasn't being run by a bunch of millenarian cultists
1. This morning, Texas AG Ken Paxton just released a chilling new declaration:
Mental health therapists, counselors, and psychologists must cease affirming trans youth - using their name and pronouns - or potentially face child abuse charges and loss of licensure.
Its a horrifying escalation.
BREAKING: Credible whistleblower discloses that FBI forensic experts were ordered to stand down from processing the scene where Renee Good was killed, because Kash Patel did not want Good referenced as a “victim” in the warrant.
A scanned image of the first page of a legal document on letterhead from Ken Paxton, Attorney General of Texas, dated February 27, 2026. It is labeled "Opinion No. KP-0518" and addressed to Mr. Darrel D. Spinks, Executive Director of the Texas Behavioral Health Executive Council.

A section in the first full paragraph is highlighted in yellow, which reads: "[f]or the purpose of transitioning a child’s biological sex as determined by the sex organs, chromosomes, and endogenous profiles of the child or affirming the child’s perception of the child’s sex if that perception is inconsistent with the child’s biological sex."](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:sefgphqp2xqwh2hawaixykwz/bafkreifsl2nf4xp4efqwydrwybswqhnsk2t2mykrbnk5yojrg2xmlb434u)

A scanned image of the third page of the Attorney General Opinion document. The text discusses various statutory and dictionary definitions of the terms "health care provider" and "health care". There are no highlighted sections on this page.
A scanned image of the seventh and final page of the Attorney General Opinion document, showing the "SUMMARY" section and the signature block for Ken Paxton. The entire summary paragraph is highlighted in yellow, reading: "The definition of a “health care provider” in subsection 161.701(2) of the Health and Safety Code unambiguously encompasses the professions regulated by the Texas Behavioral Health Executive Council. Any licensee that facilitates the provision of unlawful procedures or treatments that aim to transition a child’s sex are thus forbidden from receiving public money in support of those efforts and, separately, risk revocation of their licenses to practice."
Texas AG Ken Paxton has declared that it is illegal for mental health providers and therapists to treat trans youth. It means that trans youth will be denied access to any mental healthcare that isn't conversion therapy. Paxton also threatens parents of trans youth with child abuse investigations.

“So called international organizations…no stupid rules of engagement.” We are a rogue murder state now, and positively proud of it.
they will happily sacrifice as many troops as they need. i don’t even know what to say anymore. anyone supporting this war is dumb as fuck and will lead to a less safe world every day this continues
The world could be such a nice place if we allowed it. It's all so goddamn unnecessary. There's no need for any of it. It's so beautiful here. It should be so cool to be alive
You probably can’t personally stop the war in Iran today. Is there something you can do for your neighbors hiding from ice? For a trans person in Kansas? Any local aid orgs or rapid response networks? Phone banks? Anyone already doing good shit that just needs a hand?
And you know, you can extend from this to a real important corallary to "Everyone is 12 Now" theory is "There has been a generation-long project to keep people 12."
Conservative news and opinon outlets, regressive mass audience entertainment products, etc. all propagandize a chilidish worldview.
