I don't get the acrobatics on behalf of Platner. The stuff he's good about MANY candidates should be good about. Why go to such incredible ends to defend this guy? We can't manage anti-imperialist, pro-labor candidates who don't flirt with Nazis? Let's dare to dream! We can do it!
I don't think we have a Denver, Massachusetts

Do you mean Danvers?

This story, from @natezuke.bsky.social, is absolutely wild. A trans woman who never changed her gender marker was issued a letter invalidating her license. At the DMV they cut up her license, which had an "M" marker.

There are a lot of reasons to hate SMS fundraising. Today I am struck by the stupidity.
*If* there is a letter, will it do anything? It's not a political exercise.
Would it, conceivably, be comforting to Colbert?
Does he not know that people like his show? Is that the premise?

I liked him. He has good policy positions sounds like a real person. Didn't love the 6 months of Blackwater contracting in Afghanistan. The rest of his bio seemed good.
But the totenkopf response is too much for me. And he keeps doing things like this

This is my problem with Platner in a nutshell
Trans Kansan's being stripped of their licenses due to having previously - legally - changed their gender marker is absolutely shocking.
A person who misses the letter - let's they moved and forgot to have their mail forwarded - could drive to work and be arrested for driving without a license.
An incredible song. I could listen to it all day.

Good backgrounder from The Advocate on the state of anti-trans bathroom laws in the states, 21 of which have passed some ban with 2 adding the possibility of criminal penalty. Many of these are limited to govt buildings and schools.

This aligns with my understanding from Steve Jackson Games' Car Wars, in which tractors without trailers lost handling points
She's such an amazing person. I passed her on a walkway at Tufts a few months ago. There were so many things I wanted to say, but I'm sure she values her peace, so we just exchanged smiles.
You are, quite generously, proposing a post that could be very good
You've probably already considered it, but they have some xml and kml feeds, like this. Would those be easier to translate into Bluesky posts?

I still don't understand how this isn't the headline everywhere. If Biden or Obama said the words, "I'm allowed to destroy the country" Fox News would be giving tips on where to buy pitchforks and torches.
This is the way
32. When you understand this double standard, you can see how the news media actually created conditions during the 2024 election in which some middle-class Americans unknowingly voted for their own immiseration.
And now theyโre mad.

SOME PIG
The targeting of trans adults in a new round of state level bills is just driving home the lesson I learned over and over while researching The Perfect Moment: compromising doesnโt really work. Horse trading does.
Discovering I was trans was the greatest blessing of my life. A simple explanation for a sense of wrongness I'd felt so long I thought that wrongness was me.
I credit the trans community for bringing society to the point where I could understand what was wrong and get help.

Writing = Thinking
Exactly. They're deeply insecure, and unpopular, craving attention and approval. Like Nixon and his audio tapes, they believe they can write their own histories, where they're on the right side.
