goddamn is this a breath of fresh air after Allred 2024
“Who could’ve seen this coming?” is highly unpleasant when the answer is “most people who know anything about this big topic and they’ve been saying so for years.”
It's so bad that we've reached a point where members of Congress casually discuss stripping citizenship from and deporting people because they don't like their views.
By analyzing records obtained by @deportationdata.org, I found that the total number of people who have experienced ICE detention in the first 9 months of the Trump admin amounts to the population of a mid-sized city.
ICE detention remains almost completely opaque to the public. So this is essential reporting. @mattshuham.bsky.social and @jessicaschulberg.bsky.social spoke with a man who got paroled out of CA state corrections but was then sent straight to California City.

It is really time to start coming to the conclusion that all these news agencies are so compromised by fascism that its time to start assigning some moral responsibility to the people continuing to work there.
Why...did CNN do this
Iranian schoolgirls spontaneously explode, Palestinian babies suffocate after their own NICU units decided to just stop, Lebanese buildings kinda implode of their own accord, and two Pennsylvania teenagers had their lives changed after not having a normal day enjoying NYC in abnormally warm weather.
It's super frustrating to be hanging so much on Cea Weaver saying "homeowners" in a subtweet. Like ignoring that the tweet lacked substance, we should also recognize that the home buying and selling process was a process weaponized against certain people.

Illustration of a monk daydreaming at his desk, looking like he was working on some kind of spreadsheet on a parchment, some doodles on the page showing he may have been a bit distracted for a bit Behind him are what looks like the doodles on the page in a vague medieval art style but better of him being saved from a dragon by a valiant knight, then the monk gently holding the knight in both of the drawings, a glorified portrait of the knight hidden in the middle of the other drawings, flowers and little stars all around and a few hearts
Brother, I think you're a bit too distracted thinking of your best friend there,,,,
Get back to work!

Judging by online rhetoric and polls, you'd conclude that foreign residents are making Japan less safe. However, an analysis of data by a major newspaper shows that immigrant crime is plummeting even as the hate increases.

We are aware of recent reports regarding targeted phishing attacks that have resulted in account takeovers of some Signal users, including government officials and journalists. We take this very seriously. 1/7
I wanted to know the backstory of the executive order that defined "man" and "woman"—the foundation for the Trump admin's targeting of trans people.
So I took a deep dive into the conservative strategy & distorted feminism behind it. And I talked to the author.

มันคือ conservative เริ่มรู้จักใช้สื่อสมัยใหม่แล้ว ในขณะที่ฝั่งเคลื่อนไหวทางซ้ายอ่อนกำลังทั้งในแง่เงินทุนและแรงกายแรงใจ
ขบวนการต่อต้านเควียร์มี IO จริงแหละ ถ้าโดนขนาดนี้

Someone needs to walk up to these bigots and say, "I don't care how much you hate this particular group--they are getting the same civil rights as you and you'll just have to suck it up because this is how democracy works."
Also, I hate the phrase "median voter." Because people aren't actually talking about centrists when they use it. They are talking about transphobes. Or racists. Etc. They are talking about how to appeal to bigots. And maybe we should stop trying?
Also, I'm cis and civil rights are still my numero uno concern, baby. Yes, over taxes. Yes, over health insurance. Yes, over the Epstein files. Because without civil rights? We won't have a democracy for long.
Also, this is disappointing coming from Piker. He should know how irritating it is to have one's primary cause dismissed because it is believed to impact only a small number of people. I don't care how small the number is. They're still Americans, right? What are we doing here?
Civil rights are a major issue! For everybody! Full stop!
One, **** off, Mr. Nazi Tattoo. Two, call me crazy, but I don't think you should talk about trans people as if they are a minor nuisance. "Oh, there are only two trans kids here so we can ignore discussing civil rights completely and focus on taxes."
