i want to be clear about this: worker’s rights also includes the right to be free from racist or sexist or gendered abuse at your job.

an excellent point – DJs developed blending as an art. And it is an art! When do it yourself, you generally don’t get what you get from a great DJ. The tech guys really think the computer can do what the DJ does, but it cannot. Instead, it makes something that sucks, then makes it the default
the last thing I ever want to listen to is an AI DJ. If I want to hear somebody blending records I know where to find that.
new iOS update is sleek and also defaults in Music to “you must want songs transition as they would on a dance floor.” so many people will wonder why they can’t just listen to an album. Apps > Music > Song Transitions > toggle off.

Every journalist of color I know would be punished or fired for being repeatedly late on deadline and filing "provocative" expense reports. We are also constantly concerned about layoffs or had direct experience with them. I hate this.
The breathtaking, audacious confidence of this passage…

You’re telling me you came up in political journalism of the 2010s and 20s and *never once* worried about job security? Really???

That’s… diagnosable.

The Take Care Clause was a byproduct of the lessons learned from the Glorious Revolution that the executive should not be able to dispense with the law promulgated by the legislature. It was not a constitutional provision to empower the executive branch— but to constrain it!

They're using the confinement box, one of the most horrific methods of CIA torture in the post-9/11 black sites, against migrants now. This is the direct result of the lack of consequences for the architects of the torture program. Either there will be criminal penalties for this or it will expand.

Amnesty International, interviewing migrant detainees, identifies use of the confinement box. There can be no denying it is a torture prison

some significant part of this is just catch-all fear for “this is not the child I ordered” I think
Oh, here's a big surprise. The transphobes don't believe in ADHD either.
then, the transphobes , feeling victorious at how many people they have made unhappy and despairing in the previous week, move on to anything else that has a spectrum and the possibility of more colours than they can conceive - such hateful people - they cannot understand anything that is not THEM

it's crazy how they obviously just put trump in a room somewhere with an ipad while all the real fascists who still have their mental faculties make decisions about how the country should be run

were NONE of you gonna tell me that the article riley gaines 2.0 was writing a shitty paper about DOESN'T EVEN MENTION TRANS PEOPLE?? it's about GENDER VARIANCE IN CHILDREN (e.g. boys who do ballet) and its relationship to bullying?? her paper makes it seem like it's all about accepting trans kids!

it is impossible to overstate the extent to which this country is now being run by people you would leave a party rather than talk to for five minutes
they hate music, they hate art, they hate artists, they hate pop, they hate the video games they play, they hate the movies they watch, like, they're just all the worst fucking people you've ever met, none of them believe in anything

Hey so just fyi, if you're abandoning trans rights you're abandoning all civil rights

At that point what the fuck is the point of the democracy you're willing to sacrifice trans people for

This actually isn't hard at all, quit making it pretend hard because you finally feel scared too

the reason that it's so disturbing when Newsom/Buttigieg/Harris say that they want to force trans ppl out of sports is that it signals that they don't want to fight for trans rights at a time when there is a massive genocidal campaign against trans people. 1

the economy is understimulated because people aren't buying things

to counter this, we should stimulate the economy with stimulus checks

in order to bring stability, we should keep doing it consistently, perhaps every month, for every person, universally

it's quite basic really

The President is actively dying right next to his team of simps yelling about what a Big Strong Leader Man he is. Just sitting there, eyes closed, croaking in front of our eyes.
Trump dozes while Marco Rubio speaks to him directly next to him. Just insane optics.

I have something to tell you about the united states military. you might want to sit down for this one
The worst part about the boat strikes - regardless of who ordered what and besides the ultimate tragedy of lives lost - is they’re forever a stain on the professionalism and dignity of the United States military.

They’re an insult to every American who ever sacrificed to do the right thing.
