The past 24 hours in DC have been chaos. FBI, Secret Service, DHS, & DC police are roaming the district, forcibly displacing homeless residents & throwing away their belongings. This is inhumane, wastes taxpayer dollars, and doesn't solve homelessness. housingnothandcuffs.org/2025/08/15/h...

To settle a lawsuit over the Dana Reserve project, developers agreed to scale back the number of affordable units.
It’s really comforting that as food skyrockets in price, your neighbors are disappeared by masked goons, and people die en masse of preventable illness, Republicans and Democrats can come together and say: fuck this one trans teenager in particular for trying to run track with her friends
The Cal Poly alumni started her company as a college junior in San Luis Obispo. Nearly a decade later, her once thriving business is suffering under Trump-era tariffs.

I’d been covering the controversy centering on a trans student athlete’s right to play sports at school — now we get to hear her story. Honored to have my name on this but this interview and beautiful piece is all @joanlynch.bsky.social. And of course, Lily.

UPenn just had $175 million in federal funding cancelled over allowing Lia Thomas to swim 3 years ago.
It's not going to stop until they leverage federal funding to push out trans people from academia entirely. This will extend to bathrooms, curriculum, etc.
