It sure looks like no one in Trumpworld knows what 'doxxing' actually means, so I wrote about why it benefits them to pretend not to know.

What Trump’s executive order on gender means for passports Secretary of State Marco Rubio ordered a suspension of passport applications that use a gender-neutral marker or request a change in gender.

β€œAlthough this administration has now suspended issuing passports with accurate identity information moving forward, it’s important to emphasize that passports issued prior to the executive order remain valid.” – Paul Castillo, Lambda Legal Deputy Legal Director via @washingtonpost.com

Gaza Ceasefire Deal Announced After 466 Days of Genocide and 46,000 Dead The deal is slated to begin on Sunday, Qatar’s prime minister said, beginning with a 6-week cessation of hostilities.

Grateful for @sharonzhang.bsky.social and @truthout.org's coverage:

"The success of the ceasefire is heavily dependent on compliance from Israel, whose leaders have been insistent throughout ceasefire negotiations that they be allowed to continue their assault"

I see some people are demanding we watch the inauguration and I'm all, motherfucker, I didn't watch his first one and spent four years actively avoiding the sound of his voice, what makes you think I'm going to do any different this time around

Banning TikTok is hugely advantageous to both Google and Meta. They've both already built competitors, YouTube Shorts and Instagram Reels. And while Congress and the Supreme Court cite data privacy and China wrt TikTok, Meta gave U.S. data to China before TikTok even existed

I don't have a lot of respect for Aaron Sorkin, but I gotta hand it to him for his choice to depict Mark Zuckerberg in THE SOCIAL NETWORK as a misanthropic incel type whose driving motivation is misogynist resentment

It's amazing that DEI is something corporate consultants came up with to keep their clients from getting sued and now CEOs themselves are freaking out over how it's reverse racism, it's like if your mom was scared of the bogeyman

The vibe shift here is so dramatic that the only thing keeping us from being at each other's throats is the nuclear block and the ability to detach quotes.

I was in this apartment four years ago today, & the Capitol was in the view of my house, & armed white supremacists roved the streets of our city targeting Black people, & the mayor put us under a curfew. And Trump flagrantly had a coup that was given no consequence to the point he's now president.

When you hear a former president is gone, but you find out his name was Jimmy, not Donald.

Nearly 7 in 10 Americans Say Insurers' Greed Played Role in UnitedHealthcare CEO Killing | Common Dreams The killing of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson sparked public outrage over the for-profit health insurance industry's practices. A new poll shows majority blame insurers for Thompson's death.

Sixty-nine percent of respondents placed a "great deal or moderate amount" of blame on healthcare coverage denials by insurance companies like UnitedHealthcare, for Thompson's killing.

On Dec. 29, 1890, the US 7th Cavalry massacred more than 300 Lakota people at #WoundedKnee on the Pine Ridge Reservation in South Dakota. More than half of them were women & children.
(We're not going to distress their descendants by posting photos of relatives' bodies lying frozen in the snow.)

Grassroots atheists/nonbelievers/secular Americans are very disproportionately liberal to progressive. There’s plenty of sociological data on this. It’s sad that the most visible and platformed English-speaking atheists are not. Also queer Americans skew heavily secular for reasons that make sense
