Fuck it, music thread. Sharing albums that I come across that I’ve enjoyed and found interesting:

Starting with Damaged by Ghost Dubs. Have been obsessed with it since it came out. It’s like getting a bass massage. Scratches that same itch that Earth does.

One of the things language like this does is conveys the way that leftism is seen as feminized in america. Leftists are called “hysterical,” told we “throw tantrums,” and “are shrill and unreasonable.”

This is the language of cultural misogyny, used to denigrate and silence women.
This is—ironically enough—what I am talking about.

RW voters who demand their bigotries be accommodated are never "radical" or "throwing a tantrum." No—those are "swing voters" to pursue, even as they fail to show up time & again. The goal here isn't a bigger tent, but to prevent movement leftward.

STARMER’S LABOUR: THE MOST ANTI-LGBT+ GOVT SINCE THATCHER

A list of the government's shameful LGBT+ record – especially when it comes to attacking trans people.

Updated for the second time in two months because there have been six or seven things to add since January alone.

If you live in the US, call your fucking representatives and tell them that repealing Section 230 is a horrible idea. If Section 230 is gone, you can kiss Bluesky goodbye.
Reminder that they're still trying to repeal section 230 (thereby making platform holders like bsky legally responsible for content posted by their users etc etc)

There is still a need for you to blow up your rep's phones on this if you enjoy being able to do things like "post" or "have an porn"

I'm in New Delhi for the #AIImpactSummit, the first of these global convenings to be held in the Global South. That matters a great deal.

And yet: Whose voices shape the agenda? Which communities are centered ? Which are displaced? The contradictions are as visible and important as the ambitions.

I’ve seen the critique that making these hats isn’t “doing anything” but I’d say raising 3/4s of a million for their local food shelf and rent assistance org seems like doing a lot.
There were only three left in the basket at Needle & Skein until the knitters fill it up again, but I snagged one! The total raised is now over $750,000.

This is the role the BORTAC agents under Bovino played.

They're the ones who killed Alex Pretti.

I watched them escalate and brutalize people responding to a federal-agent-caused car crash because we were yelling at the agents for arresting teenagers.
Homan on Minnesota: "There will be a small force, a security force, that will respond when our agents are out and get surrounded by agitators. They will remain for a short period of time to make sure the coordination, the agreements we have with local and state law enforcement stay in place."

You have to move beyond "WE HATE TRUMP" and realize that Trump only happened because the entire political machine of this country worked to make Trump happen and gave him the keys to the racist, fascist, oppressive systems they all built. So do you hate the oppression, or do you just hate the man?
Some of y'all are going to need to reckon with the fact that we have Trump's love of spectacle to thank for getting so much of white liberal American to finally be like "Hey...."

A lot of folks are just fine with atrocities as long as they don't have to see them.

It's unchartered, but we can see the terrain: the territory ahead includes masked secret police taking people to concentration camps but not new vaccines. That's our reward for a system in which fewer than 20 people, all of them deranged and malicious, control over $3 trillion.
The pace at which US wealth concentration is rising is simply staggering

The concentration of AI wealth into the hands of a few tech barons + plutocratic capture ==> unchartered territory

That's why the incremental shit is so insane. We have the ability to make these sweeping changes and take swings to make life better but instead we play footsie with the opposition and let them set the terms and beg for scraps
Someone has sure already made this observation but the fact they can convert all those empty warehouses into prison camps means they could have converted them into housing, community centers, job training centers or, hell, libraries or schools all along. It’s always a matter of will not resources.

When all the female grad students tell you a candidate seems arrogant & smarmy & they don’t like him, but it’s all vibes, maybe hire one of the other candidates who are just as amazing researchers, but don’t give off bad vibes. Cuz in my experience those vibes have proven right 100% of the time.
That leads to another rule when hiring:

When trusted people around you get strong negative vibes, listen to them.

Professor Louis Appleby covered up a policy which killed trans children so that the British government could kill some more through neglect and lack of care.
One of the wickedest things Wes Streeting has ever done is push politically convenient falsehoods about suicide rates amongst young trans people. We have new data from the National Child Mortality Database that exposes the truth he tried to cover up.
