Time to compartmentalise until the pain becomes creativity.

Elon Musk is the President. Right in front of us. Every single one of these weird double-header interviewers has Trump as the subservient listener. Musk absolutely rigged the election . That’s why Trump sits like a pet dog. #BBCQT

they're intentionally communicating that if you're a cis woman, trans, black, asian, non-white, you did not get your position by merit

because in the natural order of things, a white man would have been better at that job by default

they're parading white male supremacy. loudly

[.chantal//RYAN @thoughtrise]

when you hear them say "DEI", automatically replace their words in your brain with what the word represents to them: "cis women, trans, black, asian, non-whites"

when they say "we're getting rid of DEI", they're really saying "we're getting rid of cis women, trans, non-whites"

Today Elon called the commander of the ISS a retard, threatened to turn off Community Notes because it corrected him, and then shadowbanned the mother of his children because she had to post in public to get his attention about their kid's serious medical emergency.

so uh,

What can you say about this? No fair-minded person could argue there hasn’t been a shocking bias towards Israel from the BBC over the last year and a half - notably the difference in language when talking about victims and atrocities. Clearly SOME BBC journos recognise this, and have tried to rebalance with a rare first-hand account from Palestinians. But it’s been stamped on.

Hi @marksandspencer - can your Press Team clarify? You’ve been advertising on GB News, which claims the trans-inclusive Progress Pride flag 🏳️‍⚧️🏳️‍🌈is “a threat to human rights” and that trans people are predators and paedophiles.
Yet you say you support the LGBT+ community 🤷‍♀️.
With the Pride season coming up, can you tell the LGBT+ community where you stand? If you say nothing, I guess you’re classing those statements about trans people as nothing more than a legitimate “point of view.” *I appreciate sometimes adverts get placed without the firm’s full knowledge as part of a ‘media-bundle’ deal.
Is your support genuine? Or pink washing?

Btw…it’s a stock social media retort from Anon Gender Criticals to say “Show me just one thing (there are literally thousands) that JK Rowling has done or said that’s transphobic.” This is a great list, compiled by GLAAD . USEFUL FOR JOURNALISTS https://t.co/cOMospvTyE

The Darlington Nurses who are ‘protecting the rights of women’ are funded by the Christian Legal Centre. The CLC is an evangelical organisation that opposes abortion, same-sex relationships, marriage equality and contraception. But hey, if they’re going for trans women who cares?

[.chantal//RYAN @thoughtrise]

make no mistake, "DEI" is code for white male supremacy

when you hear these fascists talking about "getting rid of DEI", what they mean is "we're re-asserting the status of white men as default lords over all who do not belong to our group"

do not comply

[India Willoughby @IndiaWilloughby]

Of course you’d hate this. Because you hate for no reason. Sunlight to a vampire.

Next week my rapist will be considered for parole after only serving 2.5 years in prison. I’ve been barred from attending that hearing. I wanted to use this pain for change, and today I met with the First Minister of Scotland to discuss my plans for reform. I won’t be defeated.

[Sarah @_smoze]

Right so, “resist” means *don’t* follow fascist orders.
Don’t take the art off the walls.
Don’t delete the website.
Don’t open the dams.

Play dumb. Ask for clarity, repeatedly. Lose the email. Misplace the keys. Stall. Ignore. Forget. Crawl.

You are the line, you hold it.

It almost sounds like EA thinks removing Veilguard's live service was a mistake? "Shared-world features" Am I misinterpreting this?
I really hope Mass Effect 5 stays single players 😭
