“In this environment that we’re in right now, it feels like an understatement to say that there’s misinformation being spread about this community. People really forget that we’re human beings.”

No One Was Helping Black Transgender Youth. So These Parents Stepped In.

A new nonprofit provides resources to Black families of transgender and nonbinary youth at a moment of heightened political hostility.

Chat control's vote has been shelved for now, but the EU is still very intent on driving through this kind of legislation in the future if they can

If youre an EU resident, you need to contact your MPs and MEPs regularly and demand this be OPPOSED

Hey EU Citizens.

Between #savespeech and #fightchatcontrol, the current EU wants to STILL push to "protect the kids" in their own invasive way.

For as long as it lasts, they will keep pushing till they get what they want: control of you

“The combination of a green base with red accents was inspired by the Madagascar flag, and from an early stage onwards, a white inner layer was incorporated to highlight Miariz's dark skin.”

That green base wasn't the only color that ended up looking washed out in the final design

Some people know early. Others take the long road.

Both paths are valid.

Transitioning later in life means you let yourself become who you are at a pace that honoured your life.

GenAI truly was the worst technology to come along at this moment.

An energy and water guzzler when we most urgently need to take climate action.

A disinformation machine as our journalism fails.

A bias machine as fascism takes root.

A job killer in a cost of living crisis.

The "cognitive decline and brain damage from repeat COVID infections" and "easy to use robot that makes slop and melts your critical thinking skills" is a hell of a combo in a post-fact media ecosystem

Please donate to them whenever you can. Even a little bit helps.

Canadian people, use the recent Discord leak to show how BAD of an idea this is. Age verification or any OSA putrid child needs to die before it becomes law, do not allow this and make sure to your rep that if they are for this law they will be taken out of power expeditiously.

Canadians! The UK is attempting to push their own version of the Online Safety Act onto Canada via the bill S-209!

You need to contact your representatives in parliament and explain how this policy is catastrophically bad! Mention the discord data breach!

The Online Safety Act was a disaster in the UK, and now they're trying to expand a similar bill to Canada. My Canadian friends, contact your MPs and tell them to OPPOSE this bill, bc if you thought the Discord leak was bad, this will be so much worse. #SaveSpeech

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.
