Update: The Trans bathroom bounty hunter bill in Kansas has just passed the Kansas House.
They have rushed it to the Senate for passage.
If it passes, the most extreme anti-trans bill in the nation is about to be sent to the Governor's desk.

"Every day, I wake up and see the news and I'm horrified. I think it is crazy that some people make it sound like it's acceptable, like the murder of civilians is acceptable." - Victor Wembanyama says about the killings in Minnesota

Just got recommended this great video breaking down a connection I've been trying to articulate for a few years now.
@kattenbarge.bsky.social I'm lowkey mad that I don't ever see you promoting the fact that you make YouTube videos on your various beats. Shout it out more!

Another reason Democrats must stop, defund, and ultimately abolish ICE: voter suppression. ICE has forced a significant number of people of color to hide inside their homes. What if ICE patrols just outside key polling places during the midterms?
Alex Pretti "used to tell people off when they made sexist comments to female physicians. He bought me coffee when I had a really bad day as an intern...I laughed alongside him daily. He made a point to teach medical residents without judgement, but with a smile on his face and a joke."
if youβre not american idk why the fuck you think it would be okay to poke fun of the current terrible tragedies that country is in rn. shut the fuck up and stop pretending you are morally superior just bc your country hides its bigotry better. youβre deeply fucking heartless.
Kyle Rittenhouse was on Infowars the day after the Renee Good shooting saying he had heard on X that Renee was putting cigarettes out on her kids. This wasn't true. This is a government by and for school shooters and their apologists.
If he had not stepped in to record, they would have killed her instead. They were obviously just looking to murder another innocent woman. Useless, fascist pieces of shit.
Alex Pretti, the man shot by ICE in Minneapolis, appears to have previously worked with the federal government at the VA.
There is a photo of him on the VA website, where heβs cited as part of a medical research team.

Everything I learn about this man just gets worse and worse, and it's ALWAYS against my will!!!
Being Asian and transmasculine was βa revolutionary act.β Now heβs a model for whatβs possible.
At 61, Willy Chang Wilkinson has always tried to take care of his community β from HIV prevention to helping the next generation of AAPI transgender men.

A hospice in Uganda asked itself: Can we do more than ease the pain of dying? Can we actually prevent deaths from cervical and breast cancer?

I'm noticing a pattern here.

My bestie here is oh, so sweet and kind. She needs help with her transition, especially in the current political climate. Please contribute if you can and share the original post if you are unable:
Intersectionality has become so memified (even by its alleged proponents!) that it's been thrown to the wayside entirely. It is a valid concept, and it's useful in other contexts outside of Crenshaw's legal analysisβESPECIALLY pertaining to Kweli's ongoing harassment of Maya:

This is why I detest blind racial hierarchy as it relates to theory and "activism". No, it is not racially paternalistic for white people to push back against a black man arguing that Jewish Holocaust victims had white privilege in their time & context. It's ACTUAL allyship to call that rhetoric out
I know I am not seeing some White e-Wokeβ’ describing TALIB KWELI as "a lifelong anti-racism activist". This is the same man who's led a YEARS-LONG harassment campaign against a black woman that has bled into real life, all because SHE (politely, mind you) pointed out unconscious intracommunal bias.
:(
TIL that the DHS has had such a problem with officers purposefully standing in front of vehicles to justify shooting the drivers that they had to update their guidelines a decade ago telling their officers to not stand in front of vehicles

One thing I will say is that all things about politics aside, I'll always genuinely appreciate how Tim Walz embraced his son Gus and didn't try to change him. It is a role model for other parents of neurodivergent kids.
