i miss the old twitter

[The injury. @torturefuntime]

i feel like the quote retweets saying this book is ‘bad’ just saw the words “elite” and “liberal” and panicked because the author is staunchly discussing how the push against transitioning and recognizing trans class struggles is in fact bourgeois liberalism

The Irish coming out in support of Mexico, I know that’s right. Up the IRA

I love Scots as much as the next guy but it’s kinda sad how many white Bostonians embraced Scotland over Haiti during the World Cup considering how Boston has one of the biggest Haitian diasporic communities in the country

Trump has proposed a $1.5 trillion defense budget — a 40% increase, the largest since WWII.

In exchange for more war he wants to:

-Cut the EPA budget by half
-Cut $10.7 billion for housing
-Cut $8.5 billion for K-12 programs
-Cancel $15 billion for clean energy
-Cut $2.5 billion for clean drinking water
-Eliminate $1.6 billion for youth job training
-Cut $3.5 billion from the Labor Department
-Eliminate $395 million for senior employment
-Eliminate $775 million in food assistance grants
-Eliminate the National Endowment for Democracy
-Cut $5 billion from the National Institutes of Health
-Eliminate the Low Income Home Energy Assistance Program (LIHEAP)

In all, cuts to domestic programs would account for a 10% reduction in discretionary spending.

This needs to become illegal. It is data collection + intimidation of existing employees + stock market manipulation + HR pretending to be working. Literally nothing is good about it and it damages the social fabric a lot.

When Churches were being used as the site of slave auctions, they deserved to be protested. When houses of worship are used to auction off the stolen land of genocide victims, they too must be protested by people of conscience. No matter the religion.

Tennessee republicans voted unanimously to advance an anti-trans bill to create a public list of trans people located in the state.

House Bill 754 would force medical providers to provide information to the state and identify them.

US immigration officials picked up a blind Rohingya refugee last week in Buffalo, NY. Then, realizing they had no basis to deport him, they released him five miles from his home. He needed a walking stick and died trying to make his way back to his house: https://t.co/dNBRWAiv0b

So all these waymos driving around the Bay are just being driven by severely underpaid and exploited Filipino workers... All this tech crap is just a scam.

The cool thing about being raped is that afterwards your choices are either try to pretend it never happened & let them get away with it or make your entire community hate you. The first option is easier and less traumatic, which the rapist knows.

The sexual violence revealed in the Epstein files isn't satanic or demonic, it is PATRIARCHAL. The reality of patriarchy is more violent and depraved than any mythological conception of evil, and it isn't religious conspiracy theorists that have been vindicated, but feminists

JK Rowling personally invited Jeffrey Epstein to the opening of Harry Potter & the Cursed Child while he'd been a very publicly convicted pedophile for 10 whole years...

"Protecting women & girls", huh?

Something not being talked about enough in the unfolding Epstein horror show is academia's complicity & even active participation in all of it (especially elite academia).
