If we don’t protect trans people we don’t have a hill. It’s all of us or none of us. Not just for morality’s sake; that’s the only way to beat fascism. Turns out the moral choice and the strategically smart choice are usually the same.

Today my @nytimes.com colleagues and I are launching a new series called Lost Science. We interview US scientists who can no longer discover something new about our world, thanks to this year‘s cuts. Here is my first interview with a scientist who studied bees and fires. Gift link: nyti.ms/3IWXbiE

Can you [especially if you're here in Chicago/the area] plan to make this one call tomorrow?

LFG📱💪‼️

Twitter radicalized me. I am far more leftist and can articulate my positions well because of the people I followed there (and now here). I know how to stand up for the people around me, my students, my employees, because they taught me how to center harm and use my privilege. I’m a better person.

It means socialism for white people, everybody!

He advocated for impunity for war crimes. You cannot be serious.

Name a single good faith, fact-based argument from the right. A single thing that dignifies press coverage or scholarly attention. One good conservative idea.

Damn. This is amazing. £325 per week, paid monthly, for 3 years - and the result was a profit for the Irish economy:

They have such disdain for their customers and their product. They think we will pay for whatever nonsense they produce, whether it’s the same movie over and over or AI slop or “balanced coverage”. I think that is about to change.

They’re not going to. You need to come up with a plan that doesn’t rely on republicans doing the right thing.

Do you have no one in your life who cares about you?

Blacksky Algorithms Inc is a for-profit company I started as a vehicle for advancing my life's mission of making communal practices of mutual aid a normal practice.

Before Blacksky I starter Papertree as a community bank account. Papertree is now a part of Blacksky. I'm also a mutual aid organizer.

Aggressive mediocrity

“He’s this terrible because he loves me so much.” Woof.

I really think a lot of people voted for abusers because they’re used to being abused, and it’s the perverse way they feel safe.

One first step people should do to respond to this is start using the “report a speed trap” function in Apple Maps to report where ICE is operating. Make Apple party to the attempt to protect people.

I got fed up with Vance’s lies, so I made a video addressing a few of them:

-Why are ED wait times long? (Hint: it’s not immigrants)
-Are “illegal aliens” getting health insurance through the government? (Not since 1996)
-What about emergency Medicaid? (This goes to hospitals, not patients)

@govpritzker.illinois.gov those your guys?

So when people on the right harass people it’s civil discourse, and when people on the left stand up for their principles it’s harassment? Cool.

The Trump admin’s offer to give preferential treatment to institutions that toe the party line reeks of bribery in exchange for allegiance to a partisan ideological agenda.

This is corruption.

Adherence to ‘loyalty oaths’ would usher in a new era of thought policing in American higher education.

All those kids knew exactly what to do. ☺️
