They haven't got no noses
The fallen sons of Eve
Even the smell of roses
Is not what they supposes
But more than mind discloses
And more than men believe
Which lines of poetry live rent-free in your head?

hourslong community resistance against ice still going on in elgin, illinois—a western suburb with a large latine population and a frequent target for ice/cbp.

state rep. karina villa is on scene, per live feed, and used a bullhorn to call out to the person agents are ostensibly looking for.
Happening right now. Community members in Elgin, IL are in a standoff with Feds who are trying to abduct their neighbor.

On this day in 1941 my great uncle hurt his knee quite badly while playing softball, an injury only notable because he was in the Navy and stationed in Pearl Harbor, HI. Months later he was startled to be awarded a purple heart for his injury received on December 7th.

Cisgender women keep winning and confirming that all this hatred and exclusion of trans people is almost solely the domain of morally reprehensible men (a techbro owns this league).

This wouldn't even be a gendered hobby if certain men weren't incredibly creepy about women wanting to take part.

“Microsoft has quietly set a new date for Teams starting to share your location with your boss. ‘When users connect to their organization’s WiFi,‘ Microsoft says, ‘Teams will automatically set their work location to reflect the building they are working in.‘ The idea is others can easily find you.“
microsoft promised to "empower every user" and google to "revolutionise knowledge and technological innovation" but in reality what they have given us is an invasive surveillance dystopian nightmare hard to escape

We Should Have Finished Reconstruction: A Brief History Of American Politics, 1865-2025
While the outcome should be clear from the plain text of the Constitution, the central project of this court and Administration, together, is to nullify the reconstruction amendments
The Supreme Court Friday agreed to decide whether President Donald Trump can unilaterally limit the constitutional right to citizenship granted to virtually every person born in the United States. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

I know the current SCOTUS is distinctly bad, but reading student papers on past SCOTUS crim legal ops really drives home that, perhaps except for a few weeks under the Warren Court, all modern SCOTUS's have basically subscribed to the judicial philosophy of "please make sure prisoners suffer a lot."

Someday this cruelty will be reversed for Rachel Levine. It will be covered as a touching moment, a "correction" of an injustice. People will expect her to be grateful. Fuck that. The expectation of easy forgiveness & the shaming of rage at injustice is what brings us back to this awful place

like, Pritzker talks about wanting to fight for trans people; he passes policies to help trans people. I'm pretty sure he'd make rolling back this anti trans shit a priority.

it *sounds* relatively reasonable. but in fact it's saying that you are looking for a way to join the attack rather than resist it.

which is really bad because...Trump is passing all these vicious anti trans policies. will Democrats reverse them if given the chance? would Newsom?

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
