lovely democracy we got going on here

So the largest protest for Palestine happened today, and apparently it isn't newsworthy at all.

The first ones got demonized as terrorist sympathizers, then they were too big for that narrative, and coverage was sympathetic.

Now, 15,000 protestors at city hall are invisible.

Gov. Newsom vetoed a slew of bills over the weekend, including bills that would have:
➡️ legalized cannabis cafes
➡️ paid jurors with lower-income $100 for each day of service
➡️ expanded state benefits to all aged, blind or disabled immigrants

Scholastic asks, "Do you want to opt out of 'diverse' books at your school's next book fair?" Your participation in white supremacy has never been easier, just uncheck the 'diverse' books box– poof, no problems. 🙄

this makes me feel less crazy. i feel like some medical professionals hurt more when they poke me with a needle, and with others i feel nothing when they poke me.

Libs of TikTok (Chaya Raichik) lies constantly that LGBTQ+ people are groomers or pedophiles and teachers and nurses get death threats and bomb threats.

Juniper joked that Elon Musk is a pedophile (with a link showing it was a joke) and her account got nuked within 24 hours

1. Last week, @Target announced it was closing 9 stores due to theft, generating an avalanche of credulous coverage from nearly every major media outlet

One thing that was missing from all these stories: DATA

So Popular Information tracked it down

Oh just doing some research this afternoon for this book on Oakland PD and came across a lovely mention of Dianne Feinstein firing SFPD Charles Gain (ex-OPD Chief) because he refused to let SFPD crack gay skulls after Harvey Milk's assassination https://t.co/dShoMgVser

On how and why google changed the system behind their search engine and how it’s ruined looking up anything now

Let's be real: Feinstein didn't bring SF together after the George Moscone & Harvey Milk killings—she dismantled policies on which the progressive duo worked. She also supported the demolition of the I-Hotel, and never once appeared at a Pride Parade.

TikTok is developing AI to automatically deactivate the accounts of Kenyan users who post LGBTQ related content.

A lot of people don't realize that if a disabled person is on SSI, the federal government literally monitors their bank accounts, they cannot have more than $2,000 and they can't get married or they risk losing their benefits on SSI.

you can tell how good a fantasy setting is solely by how likely it is that Voldo from SOUL CALIBUR lives there

Lol this is ridiculous. The City NEVER had to stop doing outreach to help connect folks into shelter. The whole point of the lawsuit is to get them to actually follow their own policy of connecting folks instead of trashing their belongings & telling them to “👮‍♂️move along 🖕”

As of this morning, the Cruz family wasn’t sure where they’d sleep. Their emergency hotel voucher had expired, the parents explained, and at the time shelters didn’t have space for their teen, 9-year-old daughter and twin 5-year-olds.

On a recent episod of Dax Shephard's podcast, Shephard demonstrated the ways that anti-trans propaganda confuses people in the mainstream left who think of themselves as allies.

He also made Jonathan Van Ness cry.
