This Transgender Awareness Week, we come together to celebrate the resilience and bravery of the transgender community in the face of relentless attacks.

My message to you is simple:

I am with you. I love you. I will never stop fighting for you.

A military-style operation is taking place outside the Broadview ICE facility in Illinois, featuring snipers stationed on rooftops and armored vehicles on the streets. Protesters are reportedly being abducted and vanished, signaling authoritarian repression in this Chicago suburb.

Social mobility has been declining for decades but that's fine, we don't need the talents of 340 million people as long as we have the several dozen children of our stupidest oligarchs

It is pretty unequivocally true to say that the American punditocracy and intelligentsia vastly prefer the company and input of race scientists and Nazis to "woke" liberals. I don't think there's really any argument about that, it's extremely clear up and down the board.

WSJ has a serious investigative news desk bc their non-opinion stuff has to reliably inform people in the business/finance worlds of the social conditions that will shape the economy. the NYT politics desk and senior leadership, otoh, seem to have decided their core mission is to discipline the left

I'm not sure it's possible to get on the same page with people who refuse to understand that the Democratic Party's political choices over the last ~50 years played a major role in bringing us to this point

Crockett: Earlier someone was talking about cities being hellholes. Los Angeles contributes almost 20 billion in taxes. That’s more than all states in this country except for four.

I'd just like to point out how weird it is that places with hundreds or even thousands of reporters β€” the NYT, WaPo, CBS, NBC, AP, etc. β€” are all getting pummeled on every major story by the dozen computerboys at Wired. To fumble the bag this consistently is, at some point, cowardice and a choice.

Big Money turning to fascism not because they needed protection from socialism but because they were bored and poisoned their brains with social media is the story of this century I think

Big fan of democracy but we'll have to admit it's an L of historic proportions to get subverted and destroyed not by some strategic genius but by possibly the dumbest man on earth

HUGE Divvy news! $99 membership, price caps, and so much more. This would not have been possible without the community oriented mindset of CDOT's Commissioner, Tom Carney. www.chicago.gov/city/en/dept...

In response to Andrew Sullivan’s op-ed about the LGBTQ+ movement getting too woke, I think I speak for all intelligent gay men when I say:

Study Shows Bike Commuting Is Still the Smartest and Healthiest Way to Get to Work For urban cyclists navigating city streets every day, the benefits of bike commuting often speak for themselves

NEW STUDY: A new study β€œconfirms what many riders already knowβ€”cycling to work makes you healthier, more productive, and even reduces sick days.”

β€œThe most active cyclists chalked up 531 fewer sick days per 100 person-years compared to non-cyclists.”
