Scoop: Trump has started demolishing the White House's East Wing facade to build his ballroom. The president had claimed construction of the $250 million building wouldn’t ‘interfere’ with the existing White House structure. /W @ddiamond.bsky.social wapo.st/4hqBNiU

Becoming increasingly clear we’re gonna have to build a parallel infrastructure for all the media we really love. The reason all of this is happening under the color of law is hyperconsolidation, dissent being traded straight up for merger approval, or fear of harassment.

Today, the UN officially designated Israel’s assault on Gaza as a genocide.
As a party to the Genocide Convention, the U.S. has a legal obligation to obey our own laws, stop weapons sales to Israel, and demand a permanent ceasefire.
End the genocide. Ceasefire now.

Mr. Antiwar President has us inches away from a Civil War at home and a nuclear war abroad in defense of an ally that is starting random hot regional wars to detract from its ongoing genocide. I’m sure all of this will just naturally cool off.

I support trans people because I believe that all people deserve the right to live with dignity.
The bravery that it takes to live your truth in the face of such discrimination and threat of violence is something that I admire greatly.

My guess is that a lot of trans people will be feeling a ton of stress and worry over SCOTUS today.
If you are a cis person, quote this and say why you support trans people and what you are willing to do to support us if the government comes for us.

Paul Verhoeven takedown of 80s capitalism is so layered that even the core premise is gloriously satirical.

I see so much AI slop on all forums online, but what I find most galling is when it purports to be historical. AI is antithetical to history and all art forms.

I wrote about people insulting Elon Musk and his relationship with Trump by calling him ‘Elonia’ or ‘First Lady.’
This approach doesn’t work both because it reinforces the language and approach of bigotry, and because it doesn’t hurt our powerful targets one bit.
We have to learn to punch up.
