Emma Goldman was deported along with another 600 anarchists, communists & socialists, while 10k+ more nationwide were rounded up in the Palmer Raids, 105 years ago during the First Red Scare and tbh idek which number Red Scare we're on now www.newyorker.com/magazine/201...
Imagine your life gets expensive as hell, inflation or disaster or medical crisis etc. Suddenly it costs $1,000 a day to not die. 28% of Americans have less than that in savings. They'd die in 1 day. A millionaire could last 2.73 years. A billionaire could survive that for 2,730 years.
Since everyone has ~big controversial pronoun opinions~ I may as well share mine, so here goes: “nosotros” is way too long to be a pronoun. Too many letters, too many syllables. Pronouns should be one syllable, two at the outside, and if so they better be formal.
Please folks for the love of G-d stop posting about how we should violently overthrow the government on social media. It puts yourself and everyone around you in danger. It doesn't own the libs to post it in response to a statement about electoral politics and end up in a freaking cage. Be serious.
People fail to understand that The Martian was based on the continuation of the orderly functions of NASA and international cooperation on space, and it showed that while full on colonization isn't possible exploration was definitely on the table. Not anymore. That ship done sailed.
This dystopia is so beyond infuriating because it’s all been so predictable for decades now (especially thanks to every kind of movie/tv show). The only way to save ourselves is to save each other and the only way they stay in power is by keeping us at each other’s throats instead of theirs.
OMFG they are responding to the George Floyd uprisings and the decade of uprisings preceding it Trump is not fighting a phantom force rioters literally had him hiding in a bunker under the white house while they attacked the gates why do so many leftists participate in this reactionary forgetting
There is an inevitable response when white people are called on our inherent racism, whether it's white trans people or white leftists or white disabled people. We say it doesn't exist (leftists aren't racist, liberals are!) or say it's transphobia or ableism, or downplay our institutional power.
i am once again reiterating that you should follow and/or unblock @erinyes.diy. i hung out with her tonight in person; she’s hella cool. some of us blocking her at 1st was definitely a misfire. i believe it’s important to own when that happens, so i 💯% vouch for Erin. she’s delightful. 🏳️⚧️💖🏳️⚧️
Wonderful, wonderful year for trans talent. New comic from @mattielubchansky.com, novels from @ravineangel.bsky.social and @torreypeters.bsky.social and @haileypiperfights.bsky.social, part II of Castration Movie coming from @weard.moe. It brings me so much joy.
I don't understand why billionaires are using their time and money to destroy the world, like, if I were rich enough that I didn't have to work and money didn't matter I'd spend my time and money on, like, weird art, and private drawing and singing and music lessons, and that kind of thing.
After we broke this story, Department of Veterans Affairs press secretary Peter Kasperowicz denied the policy change and demanded a retraction. However, the rescission memo is listed on the VA's government website and the original Directive 1341 has been deleted. www.advocate.com/news/transge...
Now, keep in mind that just about every service has access to your private messages unless they have encryption methods that preclude it. But usually - USUALLY - those services require a court order before they start rifling through them, and do you really trust people who willing work for Musk?
a friend invited my wife and me to visit them… and we were invited to an event i’ve wanted to do since childhood had to turn both down because they’re in states where i can’t use the bathroom, and if i had to go to the hospital they’d forcibly detransition me by stopping my HRT do you get it yet?
"“Oopsie…Too late,” Salvadoran President Nayib Bukele, a Trump ally who agreed to house about 300 migrants for a year at a cost of $6 million in his country’s prisons, wrote on X. That post was recirculated by White House communications director Steven Cheung." apnews.com/article/trum...
Apollo 18 was my first ever They Might Be Giants album and while it’s not my favorite, it’s also one of those albums that’s so canonized in my mind that the moment I hear any song from it I immediately get nostalgic. It’s a hard feeling to explain. It feels like an album that’s always been there
