This particular trend in transphobia (requiring licenses to match sex at birth) is the equivalent of insisting we have to call a butterfly a caterpillar.

Harper to the judge: "Your driver's license doesn't list your height and weight at birth. It doesn't list where you used to live. It identifies who you are now."

Brought to you by the people who wouldn't wear a mask and stay home in order to slow down a pandemic that killed millions.

Well, gas is expensive, and food is expensive, and we’re doing a war nobody wants, but at least there are no jobs

It is really something to see the US military blundering into conflict unprepared while the Iranians seem to have a long term strategic plan to deal with us

Is there any real chance of a reaching a peace deal in a war where one side are irrational religious zealots operating under a repressive theocracy, and so are the other two.

Today is Bandcamp Friday. Bandcamp supports their roster by waiving their cut for today so we artists can earn a little for downloads. Please support us!

Does feel like quite some overlap between β€œMamdani needs to reassure Jews” Dems and β€œstop whining about Platner’s Nazi tattoo” Dems

$2 billion a day for this war.

No money for schools, healthcare, libraries, state universities, housing assistance, child care, public transit, infrastructure repairs, investment in science, USAID. No money for anything that makes our citizens' lives better, but endless money to kill people.

Arguing if Platner is a Nazi or not is a stalking horse for the argument over whether he's an idiot or not, and he is.

Moral of the story? Congressional oversight matters. Congress should do it more.

They fund it in Gaza. They're doing it to Venezuelan fisherman. They're doing it in Iran. They're doing it in the streets and in concentration camps to immigrants in the US. They've done it to US citizen protestors on the streets in Minnesota.

There are no limits to what they are capable of.

There's no algorithm here.

He's running for office. Yay. Running a campaign of volunteers is not "doing work" for others. It's great that he's hoodwinked 0.01% of the population of his state to help him, but that's not "doing work for the people."

Platner is the shining symbol to the matty y and jon favreaus of the world that their world will stay the same and they won't suddenly need to actually be competent at things to survive. They need Platner to win. He represents them

noem's big sin to trump wasn't killing innocents or detaining immigrants. it was looking bad on tv in his name. thats all he cares about.

Please give examples of him "doing work."

I see him talking a lot and going on Nazi-adjacent podcasts, but I haven't seen anything about his work within the community. He is not an organizer. He has not held office. He has not had any leadership experience. What "work" is he doing?

Putting Markwayne Mullin in charge of anything is an incredibly, unfathomably bad idea. This isn't scraping the bottom of the barrel, this is picking up the barrel to see what horrid things might be found underneath it.

Let me be clear: I’m glad Kristi Noem was fired. But we still have to abolish ICE.

the guys trying to call DoD the "department of war" are getting very prickly about people calling their war a "war"
