people who insist that trump is the whole problem are super dangerous because they will prevent us from addressing root causes

Well, gas is expensive, and food is expensive, and we’re doing a war nobody wants, but at least there are no jobs

never, ever, ever, ever accept "how will you pay for it?" as an argument against social programs.

the thing that the Democratic base cannot abide above all else right now is Handing It To Them

and being anti-trans is, in fact, Handing It To Them

don't do that, it's bad morals and bad politics

The entire Democratic strategy debate β€” "moderate" or move left? fight or compromise? β€” is based on a misreading of data. Voters don't think Dems are too progressive; they think Dems are weak. The actual math on what to do about this isn't even close!

all you can really do is absentmindedly tweet "You do start to appreciate why Lenin and Stalin just shot everybody."

A screenshot of a mobile Google search results page in dark mode for the query "Kansas trans". Under the heading "News about Kansas," there is a list of four news articles:
​An article from the Kansas City Star, published 13 hours ago, with the headline "Kansas informs trans residents their driver’s licenses become invalid on Thursday". The thumbnail shows a sample Kansas driver's license.
​An article from The Independent, published 7 hours ago, with the headline "Kansas sends letters to trans drivers demanding the immediate surrender of their licenses over birthright law". The thumbnail shows small pride flags on desks inside a legislative chamber.
​An article from The Topeka Capital-Journal, published 7 hours ago, with the headline "Kansas invalidates IDs and birth certificates of transgender people". The thumbnail features a close-up of colorful pride flag stickers.
​An article from Erin In The Morning, published 16 hours ago, with the headline "Kansas Sends Letters To Trans People Demanding The Immediate Surrender Of Drivers Licenses". The thumbnail is a nighttime photo of a state capitol building illuminated in pink and red lights.

A day later and no major national news org has covered what they're doing in Kansas.

This is the flip side of the hyper focus on trans issues by the right. The national media ignores what's actually being done to trans people.

This erasure is what contributes to the persecution.

1. Numerous transgender people in Kansas are reporting that the state has sent them a letter demanding the immediate surrender of drivers licenses.

Those driving could be arrested, charged, and see privileges revoked.

Hell, I've been pretty hands off with Magic lately and I *just* this week learned that Edge of Eternities is a really neat and well-executed original concept space opera top-down flavor set

I'd assumed it was more IP slop and wholly ignored it

Even now I'm googling to double check it *isn't* a UB

UB as a basic concept has *so* many problems, a major one of which is it taints everything MtG with "is this an original idea or borrowed or forced by some IP" which worsens the perceived quality of everything MtG

That said, the Avatar UB set does appear to completely redefine it to be "anybody who helped Aang at literally any point" which makes it essentially ubiquitous as a typing in the set, which also means the majority of Ally cards are now Avatar cards, which is... questionable, as most UB things are

I started playing during OG Zendikar which is the plane Ally is originally from, where it was sort of a sub-archetype of "the motley crew of adventurer sorts who've banded together to try to make a difference" and had all sorts of effect synergies

I'm not sure I agree with this.

It has the same effects text, but they have different power/toughnesses, different mana costs, and different types, so they're pretty far from functional reprints.

It's incredible how it was revealed that the anti-trans push over the past decade was concocted in no small part by a literal PEDOPHILE CONSPIRACY and the reaction of transphobic lawmakers, journalists, academics has been a shrug and a "well, we gotta
carry out the orders from pedophile island"

Screenshot of a CNN segment shared by Acyn. A split-screen shows commentator Lydia Moynihan on the left and Kevin O’Leary on the right during a heated exchange. The chyron reads, β€œObama: Dems need to avoid scolding and β€˜virtue-signaling.’” The post quotes O’Leary referencing China and concentration camps, and McGowan responding about West Virginia.

I spent my childhood inside of American concentration camps. I know one when I see one. And that is what ICE is building.

I keep thinking about Executive Order 9066 - Japanese (and Okinawan) Interment. The *hundreds of millions* - likely several billion in 2026 dollars - in property that was seized by the government, stolen by neighbors, damaged, looted, taken over, stolen from Japanese Americans & immigrants.

These numbers demand a complete rethinking of immigration in this country and accountability for the terrorism of DHS/CBP/ICE.

Aesthetic reforms are just not enough.
