This is the culmination of the hyper-individualist response to systemic problems: a worldwide climate crisis that threatens much of the life on Earth being met with “you can adjust to it.”

Today was the first major anti-trans hearing in the House of Representatives on gender affirming care.

In it, Republicans relied heavily on misinformation around care.

I correct five of the biggest myths in the hearing.

This gets said a lot, but “This user was suspended for posting child exploitation pictures; but I, the CEO of this website, personally ordered his account restored because I enjoy his content” is literally an admission you would need to torture out of me and all 500 of my lawyers

Oil companies “shifted the guilt to people,” says Richard Wiles, head of @climatecosts. “Climate change is not a tragedy – it’s a crime that’s been forced upon [people] by the oil companies, who knew their products were going to do this and went ahead and lied about it anyway.”

Biden must declare a climate emergency now. We are running out of time faster than imagined.

Fox News’s Greg Gutfeld just said that the Holocaust wasn’t all bad for Jews — because those with “skills” and “utility” survived.

This must be the end. It must stop now.

How much longer can ANY company advertise with Fox News EVER again?

This story is horrifying. An LASD officer followed a trans man who was leaving their teaching job, then brutally attacked him without provocation. The reason given: an air freshener. The deputy was not disciplined; the victim was charged with a felony. https://t.co/Yr7xPOWmnC

The climate crisis is spiraling out of control. 1000s of fish are washing up dead in the Gulf of Mexico because the water is too hot to hold oxygen. This is a climate emergency.

This is the real, human cost of mass surveillance of everyone's private digital communications.

If we actually care about keeping people safe, we need more end-to-end encryption not less.

In 2020, Patrick Braxton became the 1st Black mayor of an Alabama town. Then the ex-mayor & councilmembers reappointed themselves w/o anyone knowing

He's been locked out of town hall, denied town accounts & nearly run off the road: “You’re not the mayor”
