California Sea Lions are native to the area. How is she claiming that they’re an invasive species?

I don’t agree with that definition of straight but I’ve heard it! I don’t know what situation you’re referencing though, I agree for many rejecting the reality of trans-ness to say a trans person can’t be straight

Seeing straightness as the absence of queerness than a true definition. I don’t believe this is helpful but I think a lot of people believe it
I also see some transphobia in refusing to acknowledge that trans people can be interested in the opposite gender of their identity/reality in being straight

Like if you’re not a member of the LGBT+ community you are “straight” rather than thinking of straight as “interested in the opposite sex”
December 2, 2025 at 11:40 PM
I think a lot of people equate straight to exemplify the “opposite of a member of the queer community” instead of describing the nature of a relationship and the sexes involved

How is the quoted tweet a right wing narrative about cities?

I unfortunately don’t think we have the time Mamdani thinks we do. I think we’re in a race for control, if strong actions to hold the New Right harshly to account don’t happen soon, a post-Trump world looks even more unsafe for democracy

Político is reporting Mamdani thinks he can except control over Jefferies as House Leader from the threat of a fully supported future primary campaign

I honestly think she’s pretty good speaking in clear and convincing language. Her brain is just so broken she doesn’t see the horror in any of what she’s saying

Europe had their turn with explicit world domination, it ultimately brought the deadliest most destructive wars in history to their homeland. I think the public just wants to coast on the benefits of being in an industrial neoimperial center without all the empire building

There’s no negative consequence to lying in a negotiation when the other persons brain is melting out of their nose, can’t remember half of what’s happened the previous month, and is really upset about things that only exist in their head.

Just look at how many times Trump is “upset” at Russia!

Oh yeah definitely suburbanization is a long tradition that started outside the US. However the US is unique in how car dependent and expansive its suburbs sre

I can’t verify the quality of the source, but suburban density in US seems to be almost half that of the UK and clearly distinct phenomena.

American suburbs are truly exceptional from any I’ve seen elsewhere in the world

Also I don’t know how you can claim other regions had colonial regimes that lasted longer than Africa. Decolonization in Africa happened during your lifetime!

Comparing the colonial regimes of Asia and N & S America it should be remarkably clear how distinct the differences are.
