The nutshell summary here, and again this is corroborated in the accounts of lobby journalists. This is why I compare this behaviour to the movie Gone Girl: most people do not encounter hate-driven psychos in their daily lives, so it would never occur to them that anyone would ever behave like this.

Esther Ghey is facilitating the rewriting of history. The circumstances of Brianna’s death are being rewritten to obscure the fact that she was murdered for being trans. It is mentioned not once in this article.

One of the reasons why Elon Musk and other folks on the right want to shut down Wikipedia (or "compete" with it). It's a good platform for regular folks to accumulate data, even keep track of all of this administration's atrocities in real time. Great work

Evil cannot comprehend good is not just a trope of fiction, turns out.
They definitely can’t believe people would risk injury and death to help protect other people. They never believed it, they thought it was virtue signaling.

Medieval Dutch cod fisherman used these 2-masted boats called "doggers" & the prime fishing spot in the North Sea came to be called 'Dogger Bank'.

So when we discovered this area used to connect northern Europe to the UK during the last Ice Age, we named it "Doggerland."

Let's talk about it.

A few days ago, I stood in the graveyard of an 1100 year old church, getting damper and damper in the drizzling rain.

A woman walked into the graveyard, waved, said hello, and, as we had previously arranged, handed me a paper bag full of human bones.

The life of a churchwarden is a strange one...

If you're not familiar with just how unhinged the "Gender Critical" movement is, this thousand strong class action thing might just seem like a random ass-pull, but what it is is that they believe there's going to be some moment where all trans people will just suddenly stop being trans all at once.

I would like to gently request that AI pharmacy bots stop trying to kill my mother
Recently, I got a notice from my new pharmacy provider that they wouldn’t cover my thyroid medication and bizarrely suggested insulin instead! I need my thyroid medication. Then a couple of days ago, they called and told me to disregard the letter they had sent. AI is such a time and labor saver!

"The blood was only ever a means to an end," the vampire confessed in the interview.

"To what end?" the reporter asked.

"Blood carries vigor, life force, vital energy. That's what we feed on."

"So how do you get it, if not through blood?"

"These days, we make doom scrolling apps to drain it."

Wael spoke to the media in November and talked about how he’s not just losing a caregiver, he’s losing his best friend.

His dad was granted permission to remain in the US.

He was detained at his immigration check in.

He was complying and they took him anyways… and it cost Wael his life:

At this point I should add that during Liberation Day, Trump imposed reciprocal tariffs on the Heard and McDonald Islands, which only has penguins.
There are many serious governments in the world.

The US is not one of them.

(There are no penguins in Greenland.)

PSA:

“One of…”

=/=

“The most important…” or “The only…”

e.g.

If someone says, “One of the things causing X is Y” they are not saying, “The most important thing causing X is Y” nor are they saying, “The only thing causing X is Y.”

Polarization and state violence are not new.

What stands out now, to me, is state surveillance capacity has expanded, wealth and power have consolidated, corruption has increased, and institutions are weakened.

But there are more of us “resisting” now than there were then.

We can win.

We must.

I deleted this post because I don’t have the bandwidth to deal with revisionism.

The Trump admin is more corrupt than any in recent history—which is the part that feels distinctly more overwhelming than in the past—but the late 1960s-early 1970s were a violent and frightening time for many people.

In October, ICE grabbed Maher Tarabishi.

He was a 24/7 caregiver for his disabled son Wael.

At the time of Maher’s detention, disability advocates warned that taking away Wael’s caregiver put his life at risk.

Wael died on Friday at age 30.

ICE caused his death.

They didn’t get to say goodbye.
