I think we really should stop using antifa and just fully say anti-fascist and get them saying they are against anti fascism. Using antifa is giving them some distance and I genuinely think some of their base don’t even know that’s what it stands for.

Trump said he deserved a cut for brokering the TikTok deal, and at once there was agreement that his son Baron would have a top executive slot... though he hasn't asked for it, and has no apparent qualifications to hold it. This is how Trump 2.0 works. www.telegraph.co.uk/us/news/2025...

During a military-style raid on a building in Chicago’s South Shore, one resident heard a knock on his door.   It wasn’t the feds — it was a mom and her 7-year-old daughter, pleading for help.

He let them hide in his unit for the next 3 days.

everyone would agree that if you believe in what is right, it doesn't matter if it's controversial. i would go a step further and say: you should not even concede to the *idea* that what you believe is controversial.

trans rights is only controversial if you act like it's controversial.

Unconstitutionally taking money that the law says must be spent on one purpose & using it for something else—when it's to establish personalist control over the FUCKING MILITARY—is about as dangerous a constitutional crisis/failure as you can imagine

The Office of Management and Budget sent a notification to Congress about their intent to use research and development funds to pay members of the military, two sources with direct knowledge tell NBC News.

A spokesperson for the OMB confirmed to NBC News that it plans to use the research and development funds and that there are two years' worth of funds available within the Department of Defense.

As I understand it, the ‘brains develop until they’re 25’ factoid simply means brains continue developing indefinitely, and 25 was the end point of the studies only because it was an age that everyone understood was well into adulthood. We need fewer credulous idiots giving credence to bigots.

Part 2 of the Gender Clinic Files is out, looking at the impact if Cass recommendations for adult services were introduced, affecting more than 32k young trans adults just from the current waiting list.

Huge thanks to @wearequeeraf.com & @whatthetrans.com for their work on this series.

Majority of adults waiting for Trans+ healthcare are under 25

Two-thirds of Trans+ people would lose care if all Cass Review recommendations implemented

Fun fact: Bluesky is outperforming Twitter on conversions for my Kickstarter by 900%.

Despite it having the most followers of any platform for me, Twitter is converting at lower numbers than EVERY OTHER social media platform I'm using (Facebook, Threads, Instagram, Bluesky).

Put this in your minds now: these corrupt motherfuckers will argue in favor of Trump and the AI corporations that back him. Many AI companies like Palantir already define themselves by their pocketbook and because many of the judges here take bribes, they too will serve their billionaire masters.
