I wrote about how "Grokipedia" is a new front on the war against reality itself. It's an attempt by the oligarchic class to seize the means of knowledge production itself and create a weaponized unreality.

The Rose City Riveters continue to stand with our trans siblings in and out of the stadium.

We call upon the NWSL and Jessica Berman to condemn the statements made by Elizabeth Eddy and take steps to protect their players from hateful rhetoric like this. #BAONPDX
🏳️‍⚧️ Today, and every day, we stand with supporters groups across the NWSL to say - loud and clear: Trans People Belong.

In the stands, on the pitch, in our communities - everywhere.

Everyone deserves to feel safe, respected, and celebrated.

No exceptions. ❤️🖤

This is a great idea
If I were commissioner of the MLB I would make it a rule (or write into television deals) that playoff announcers have to be made up of one announcer from each team’s announcing crew (home team gets color/away team does play by play) and one former MLBer on a rotational basis.

This is a humbling program. Utterly devastating protest. Kudos to those that contribute to serve a nation that is betraying them.
Here in Seattle, furloughed NOAA employees were out in the pouring rain cleaning up beaches yesterday, part of a national week of service organized by federal workers who can't do their jobs due to the shutdown.

somewhere in portland, there's one person, or a small handful of people, who came up with the inflatable costume idea, and I feel like they deserve our immense respect for defining the obvious developing aesthetic of the contemporary battle against fascism
