I’m currently taking a break from dying under the weight of 40 wearables and deadlines to say I’m very proud of our site for putting together a package about being trans on the internet during these garbage times. 🏳️‍⚧️

The future of being trans on the internet

The internet has long been a source of information and support for transgender people. Now, trans rights and the internet itself are in a moment of crisis. What happens next?

Hey look, Israel broke the cease-fire, twice, in two different ways, within 24 hours - again.

NEW: Israel informed the UN it will permit only 300 aid trucks into Gaza daily, not the 600 mandated by the ceasefire it just signed.

Ima be honest I really don’t like the way Daredevil sounds in Marvel Rivals. He sounds like one of those parody anime dubs of Dexter.

Mamdani talking lucidly and passionately about trans rights and history in a video that should frankly shame every politician who has hemmed and hawed and triangulated and said, "Well, but sports..." It's not that hard to tell the truth and stand for what's right. www.youtube.com/watch?v=bEvV...

This is exactly what we need. This is it.

"New York City Council member Chi Ossé, a close ally of Zohran Mamdani, is privately discussing a run against House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-N.Y.)"

Scoop: Mamdani ally weighs challenging Hakeem Jeffries

Just talking about a potential campaign could drive a further wedge between Mamdani — the democratic socialist in line to be New York's next mayor — and Rep. Hakeem Jeffries (D-N.Y.)

I wrote about Bad Bunny playing the Super Bowl and what it means for Puerto Ricans to see one of our own on that stage. It's resistance and shows that Todavía seguimos aquí. We are still here.

It’s excellent! I loved it. Sean Penn and Leo DiCaprio are in peak form, but the rest of the cast are giving their all and then some. A real movie of the moment.
