Usonian libs who get all sanctimonious with people from the Global South when we say USAID sucks ass (which isn't to say that Musk and co gutting it and causing millions of deaths is good, it obviously isn't) should read this, because it's exemplary of the imperialist bullshit USAID does.
Spectacular #longread on the history of the right-wing opposition in Venezuela, and how during Juan Guaido's shadow government an abominable legal strategy robbed the country of $30 billion destined for corporate claims holders. Amazing work from Moe Tkacik.

Que llano es el entendimiento de muchos fachas boricuas ante la filosofía política de Albizu. He visto ha unos cuantos decir que estaba en contra de la democracia y casi me meo de la risa. Cuando Albizu decía “la urna es el ataúd para enterrar a la nación puertorriqueña” él estaba hablando sobre el

hecho de que no se puede lograr la liberación de Puerto Rico por medio de la participación en el sistema electoral colonial ni por medio del aparato colonial. Por eso aquel que aspira al puesto de gobernador se dice que viene a “administrar la colonia” y no liderarla. Eso era lo que Albizu rechazaba

The FDA has suddenly dropped a proposed rule to require asbestos testing in cosmetics.

The rule would've set up testing to identify cancer-causing asbestos in talc-containing products.

Contamination has repeatedly been found in talc-based cosmetics before.

Putting a Puerto Rican on this list is just racism.

Like I'd LOVE not to think about American culture, but y'all are kinda occupying the island.

And love reminding everyone "Puerto Ricans are American" until we ask for ya know... Dignity... Respect... Self Determination.

The context here is that, in addition to admitting girls a few years ago, troops are now allowed to be fully co-ed, instead of a separate, linked girls’ troop.

Our son’s troop is therefore about to have its first cohort of girls bridging over from Cub Scouts! We’re thrilled!

A note to say @blackamazon.bsky.social and her colleagues warned about this sort of thing many years ago.
"The only thing revealed by this transparency is that social media companies do not give a f*ck about this."

Our attention is the product

There are tutorials in many languages on how to exploit that for profit, not just to stir the pot

AI makes it so easy to exploit now and everyone wins but you

Treehoppers are wild! Like someone hit the "random" button on the character creator.

Look at this weird bug, Cladonota apicalis. from Ecuador.
Now imagine a horse shaped like this, or a wolf!

Why do treehoppers have such weird shapes?
It's a mystery! But we have some ideas.

Today I learned that stalking a 17 year old girl, writing up a 400 page 'dossier' about her, falsely reporting her to the police and smashing her phone does not constitute 'harassment'.

One wonders what *would*.

The idea that trans people of any age are being pressured into taking medication without knowing anything about it and thus need to be gatekept from our Healthcare is infantilizing.

HRT is not radically more dangerous than any other OTC medicine you can buy right now.
"HRT shouldn't be easily available because it can be dangerous if you don't know what you're doing."

Go into Walmart and go down every aisle and take note of how many easily available things could fuck you up if you don't know what you're doing. I guarantee you it's a lot.

Republicans are going to try to distance themselves from this, and the media is going to do their best to let them. It's gonna feel like Bush II remixes, everyone pretending they've never heard of this Trump guy and if they did they were always against him, everyone was. History repeats.

La anexión jamás será una opción descolonizadora y todo aquel que empuje ese mensaje de normalizar la anexión en espacios de descolonización están abriéndole la puerta al arrebato de la soberanía de los países ocupados, colonizados y sometidos.
"my least woke opinion is---"

That's enough. We've had enough people indulging in the "thrill of a little conservatism", as a treat. Of considering reactionary thought to be a salacious and taboo in a world descending into reactionary mania.

Give me your MOST woke opinions. We're bringing it back.
