Out today, a visit to the "Trans Takeover" of Barton Springs: All across the stone slab, LGBTQ+ folks sat in clusters, talking and dipping in and out of the water together. ... Happy people who use every pronoun and none at all.
At Barton Springs, Trans Existence Becomes Resistance
Following a transphobic incident earlier this year, community members gathered to "protect trans joy."

I don't think we talk enough about the fact that what underpins their belief is a corruption of the bible - prosperity gospel. They think because they are rich , they are blessed by god.

also for people who are going to say, I'm saying they aren't really christian - I'm not. /1
Like the Koch brothers and other conservative billionaires, Dunn and Wilks want to slash regulations and taxes.

Their endgame, however, is more radical: not just to limit the government but also to steer it toward Christian rule.

In Super Mario Galaxy, the stars on the letters of the logo spell "u r mr gay", while for the movie it says "he mr gay". This is because you are watching Mario, not playing him.

The Kremlin disguised a nearly $100 mn payment to Trump in the form of a brokered real estate deal... and both Jeffrey Epstein and William Pulte were involved in the deal. That's very interesting.

Another thing this email trove has convinced me of is that NYT has been actively and consciously helping Trump since 2015. It wasn't just casual sexism, double standards, and political reporting Kayfabe. They were doing catch and kill

The Epstein story gets a something that is tearing at the heart of the electorate: elite impunity. The idea that wealthy and powerful people can do terrible things *at scale* and face no consequences for them. Whatever political party actually stops it could rule the country for a generation.

🟥 “The New Normal Is Genocide”

“The whole Zionist program is a program of genocide — of ethnic cleansing and elimination,” says Diana Buttu, “that’s the only way they created Israel in the first place… the only way they’re going to continue to get rid of Palestinians 77 years later.”

Pixar designed Toy Story to be printed on physical film. The Disney renaissance movies were the same.

Today, it's hard to see them as they were meant to be seen. The versions on streaming and home media aren't quite the same films that ruled the '90s:

This makes my skin crawl to read. Just so deeply embarrassing out infuriating. Print this out and mail it to your reps. Read it to them on their voicemails. They all need to feel unimaginable shame until they finally grow the collective spine to - at the very least - call for new leadership.

THEY PEPPER SPRAYED A BABY

THEY PEPPER SPRAYED A BABY

Please read this entire excellent piece by Caroline, which points out that a judge ordered the Feds (again) to stop doing **this exact kind of thing** and they are still continuing to do it all over Chicago
Arianna Sofia Veraza and her parents were driving to Sam's Club for milk, eggs and diapers yesterday when they heard helicopters and horns blaring yesterday. They had turned around to leave when a federal agent pepper-sprayed them through a car window.

You can see in the quoted video how threadbare Dima’s family’s tent is- she is very concerned about the weather this winter- there are now more tarps and tents available in Gaza but that doesn’t help if she can’t afford them. Even a small amount can help get her to be able to ❤️
I’m sharing a Palestinian account every day and today is Dima. Dima is 22 years old and was studying IT at university before this. She is helping her very large family including her parents who are both in their sixties. Their biggest concern is winterizing their tent which as you can see needs it.
