Look at the hundreds of people in that community in Minneapolis who ran TOWARDS the danger. Look at those who documented in their heads what happened so they could accurately recount it afterwards, look at those currently out protesting. Pay attention & do your part too.

I say this with zero irony: if you are even tangentially a part of a retro video game community, it is your civic duty to push back against this company and shun anyone who doesn't. This is fascism tapping gently at the door and as soon as you let it in, it's going to invite its friends.

If the Democrats take down Section 230 they can kiss Millenials, Gen Z and Gen Alpha goodbye because no internet generation is gonna vote for the antideluvians sucking corporate dick.
Sen. WHITEHOUSE: We finally are moving to file a bipartisan Section 230 repeal bill. Waiting any longer serves no useful purpose.

One way that the reaction to Rob Reiner's murder mirrors Charlie Kirk's is that the best way to eulogize each of them is to quote their words, and in both cases, doing so pisses off conservatives.
Rob Reiner: “Silence in the face of authoritarianism is complicity. Speaking out is a patriotic act. Democracy doesn’t defend itself. It requires participation, vigilance, and courage from ordinary people."

I honestly can't think of an issue where my mind has been more thoroughly changed by listening to people on social media. While MAiD is something that in principle I'd support, it's not possible to have it as a truly consensual option under current systems- something I learned from disabled folks.
A woman in Saskatchewan needs surgery for a parathyroid issue and is being offered MAiD instead.

There’s no one in the province who can perform the procedure and the government won’t pay to send her elsewhere.

This is why disability advocates warn about assisted dying

Importantly, this wouldn't have passed without Dem support. There was enough of a split within Republican ranks that if Dems had voted against the bill it would've been doa. Giving Trump a blank check to warmonger *and* passing an anti-trans measure was a choice.

The democrats allowed transphobia to be enacted in to law so they could give Trump 900 billion dollars just as he is flirting with invading Venezuela.

what good is prop 50 if a third of the democrats in this state voted for this?
And I did the work to catalogue it:
Thompson, Bera, Harder, Pelosi, Lieu, Panetta, Carbajal, Ruiz, Brownley, Whitesides, Cisneros, Tran, Correa, Min, Levin, Peters.
All California Dems who voted for this.

Something I have to reiterate is that you are being straight up lied to about trans people and our healthcare on an unfathomable scale, this instance reporting is already being torn to shreds by other people commenting, but the frequency of this kind of reporting is astonishing, it's neverending.
You might think from the headline that this is a story about a trans kid suffering medical consequences from a large drug dose but nope! It is just an interview with an estranged father who is angry that his child happily transitioned.

Check out this awesome Defensive Baking art!
Hey @tkingfisher.com, thought you might enjoy the fruit of an illustration challenge centered around your Wizard’s Guide to Defensive Baking. I believe the illustrators are mostly students or amateurs hoping to develop their skills, and the challenge was to focus on one character. From Facebook.
