"The Labour party women’s conference will be revived next year with only biological women allowed to vote, but a fringe programme and reception will be open to all regardless of gender and sex, "

That's not a compromise. That's segregation.

A girl in Kenya writes of school as salvation📚 of holding her place with grit and grace. The Makena Children’s Foundation makes that possible❤️. In a country where opportunity is scarce, they open one more door🚪 and let a child walk through.

Simply amazing that the Supreme Court declared an end to legal race discrimination in the affirmative action case two years ago and now allows overt racism in both immigration arrests and redistricting.

Using race to help minorities? Bad. Using it to discriminate against them? Very, very good.

"It turns the triumph of the Haitian Revolution — a successful slave revolt to create the world’s first Black republic, — into a cautionary tale. And it absolves the US, France and others — the destabilizing foreign interference that actually has bedeviled Haiti since its founding.

Every novel is a game the reader and the writer agree to play together, but some novels require more agreement than others. INVISIBLE CITIES really asks you to buy in. How to describe it?

I could tell you, I suppose, that it's a dreamy travelogue of invented cities—

Maybe instead of committing atrocities, we could just make the rich pay their fair share and have universal healthcare and affordable housing instead.

Idk, just spitballing here.

Last week, ICE arrested and separated a father and son after a routine check-in. Six-year-old Yuanxin had just enrolled in the first grade at an elementary school in Astoria. Now he's in custody, alone. ICE won't say where. This cruelty serves no one. It must end.

A foreign-born person who becomes naturalized is an *American*. Trump's immigration regime is about nativism, not immigration status.

Trans people: If your partner insults your appearance, mocks your efforts to transition, says they support you in one breath and then that you ruined their lives in the next, are embarrassed to be seen with you, or makes you feel like a burden, that's not your partner, that's your abuser.

Dems release a video reminding troops of their responsibility to disobey illegal orders.

They’re called seditionists.

WaPo breaks the news that Hegseth said to kill survivors of a boat strike.

WH: “It wasn’t him! It was Admiral Bradley!”

This is why you disobey illegal orders
