I can't stress enough how young staffers working for Republicans are basically all groyper Nazis now. The leaked texts yesterday saying "I love Hitler" and now swastikas on congressional offices.

The worst part is the typical reactionary centrist response to this is to blame the left by saying we were crying wolf so now it won't be taken seriously when there's actual nazis in the halls of power.

We tried to warn you! You just didn't want to listen.

The trailblazing transgender rights activist Miss Major has passed away at the age of 78.

Miss Major was a lifelong organizer and participant in the ballroom scene. She took part in the 1969 Stonewall Riots and was injured by the police — but she kept fighting.

We're 7 months in and Trump and the oligarchs have completely seized control of the media. If you criticize them, your show will be pulled from the air.

This is what dictators do. Fascism isn't coming, it's here.

Another thing I haven’t seen people talking about is how unapologetically pro-trans Zohran Mamdani has been during his campaign. The so called “vibe shift” is nothing more than an internet algorithm astroturfed by billionaires.

TIL about TypeScript Type Buddy 🤯

It translates this fancy TS function syntax to the real but unreadable ternary syntax
(works in both directions)

I see how this could be convenient to work on complex conditional types

There's even a VSCode extension

A reminder that if the government can send migrants to a prison camp without any due process, it can send U.S. citizens there, too. I know because this happened to me and my family in 1942.

In this current harsh world, let's warm a few hearts remembering the events of 7-8 March 1991, when the 90,000 people of Brindisi woke up to find 25,000 Albanians roaming the streets of their town. For perspective, that's roughly equivalent to 25k people suddenly landing in Hastings [Thread] >> 1

@aoc.bsky.social You all should do something to get "censured" once or twice a week.

Waste all the house floor time on that.

Suck the oxygen out of the news cycle.

Make it a different person every time.

Tbh I think this bit is maybe one of the most important bits of information that has surfaced on the «DOGE» project:

That Elon described it in
👉2023👈
as a way to destroy the federal «bureaucracy» (ie the institutions of the federal government).
And then in 2023:
«[…] Mr. Ramaswamy’s highest priority, the dismantling of the federal bureaucracy.

Mr. Musk made clear that he saw the gutting of that bureaucracy as primarily a technology challenge. He told the party [that] the key was gaining access to the company’s servers.»
How Elon Musk Executed His Takeover of the Federal Bureaucracy
The operation was driven with a frenetic focus by the billionaire, who channeled his resentment of regulatory oversight into a drastic overhaul of government agencies.

And I’m insinuating that this is not a new thought for Elon. He grew up surrounded by this ideology and ideas. In a violently segregated country.

1. Nearly a century ago, Nazis burned trans books to usher in fascism.

Now, Trump is doing the same, digitally burning all records of transgender people and striking the community from records.

This must be seen for what it is: a move towards atrocity.

Unison is the largest women’s organization in the UK. It has a million women members.

The Unison women’s conference just voted for a motion that said;

“trans women are women and trans men are men”

with no-one speaking against it.

Transphobia is a top-down, elite practice.
