House Speaker Johnson reveals at SOTU that he didn't even bother to read the bi-partisan border bill before declaring it dead?
"As House speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) shook his head in apparent disagreement, Senator James Lankford (R-OK), a staunch conservative who negotiated the bill, nodded, saying, 'That’s true.'"

Nazis 

"the Nazi party rose to power in the wake of the 1918 Spanish flu pandemic that carried a long tail of disability and illness. In 2020, CNN noted that, “the relative impact of the flu was correlated to strength in support for Nazism.” Further, disabled people were the first targets of the mass execution campaigns of the Nazis. Public propaganda labeled disabled people “useless eaters” (which sounds more and more familiar these days), and the eugenicist murders of disabled people led to

Posted! About going out to live music and then the Met the next day, in NYC. Which is notable, as I don't get out much!

Oh, right. Women.

Mistigram: @pixelblip's #teletext animation here, with high fidelity accurately reproducing through period technology the experience of attending a #rave in the '80s, was intended for inclusion in the new music-themed MIST0224 artpack collection... but we had to withdraw it upon learning that it singlehandedly doubled the final filesize of the pack. (Fortunately, you can enjoy it here.) PLUR and rave on!

a thing i think about a lot is that people look at autism as a disorder and look at the trauma caused by living in a callous, ableist, neurotypical society and are like "see, look at the damage autism does" when the cause is so clearly social and not neurological

Aaron Bushnell was humanist, and his good heart couldn't take his nation's support for genocide. The despicable western media apparatus will now try to discredit and tarnish his reputation, muck-rake into his past, and desperately try to drag your attention away FROM THE ONGOING GENOCIDE that he died to draw your attention to.

This Johnstone video (not graphic) is one of the more powerful reactions to Bushnell's sacrifice I've seen.

When I was a radfem/TERF, I used people arguing with me to spread my views. It’s one of the most effective ways to spread propaganda. You know you’re not going to get everyone to agree with you, certainly not the person arguing with you but that’s not the point. You’re trying to reach people who will. Now that I left the anti-trans movement I never, ever debate or argue with transphobes. I block them. I’m careful about describing their ideology so as not to help them spread it. I fully support deplatforming, disruption, public humiliation, and other antifascist tactics. Those tactics make complete sense to my now because of my past as a TERF who focused on propaganda/recruitment/cultural influence. Listen to antifascists, not clout-chasing journalists.
