a beloved trans sister of mine is going through an impossibly rough time rn after her trans household suddenly lost a beloved roommate and community member. If you could find a few bucks to throw their way during the holidays it would mean the world to me mealtrain.com/gz5y3m

Shes right. Every ad is a robot selling an ugly fake piece of shit that doesn't exist, every conversation online reads like two Furbies left on the counter together, meemaw is mailing her SSI to an AI Jesus on the monthly, every restaurant is selling deep fried cyclopean horrors.

Hey BC, your new Trumpian government wants to restrict your right to criticize Israel.
B.C.’s incoming premier Lorne Doerkson has pledged to make Jewish security a priority, including adopting the IHRA definition of antisemitism and strengthening campus protections. The election also saw three Jewish MLAs elected, two Conservatives and one NDP member.

This is now the largest, most organized queer conversion torture camp on the continent. The GOP and the Democrats who collaborate with them to attack trans people are enemies of human rights and basic decency.
🚨Today, Texas Children’s Hospital has officially launched their Detransition Clinic 🚨
Under the settlement, TCH must provide multidisciplinary detransition-related care FREE OF CHARGE for five years, including endocrinology, surgery, primary care, fertility counseling, mental health services, social work, and speech pathology.
I extend my heartfelt gratitude once again to Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton and my attorneys at the Burke Law Group for their extraordinary dedication, sacrifice, and tireless efforts throughout this fight. Their commitment helped turn a painful and difficult chapter into an opportunity for meaningful change. @KenPaxtonTX @BurkeLawTweets
I think of all the detransitioners who have suffered in silence, been dismissed, and fought desperately to have their voices heard. This win is for them.
I hope TCH’s admirable effort to fund and launch Americas first detransition clinic becomes a turning point for the entire country. That this clinic is not the exception, but the first of many.
Today’s a good day. ❤️

North America if it was cool
North America is added to the site: europe-party-map.vercel.app. North America was more rushed, so it may not look as good as Europe, but I do plan to improve it and add more continents (also again, not how i'd actually vote, im showing what the parties look like on the map).

reactionaries hollowed out the American soft power apparatus that was used to flip past Brazilian elections specifically bc they’re too stupid to understand that the woke USAID facade was the velvet glove concealing the iron fist of American hegemony. you need both to do this

Zohran Mamdani won on opposition to both the unchecked power of the NYPD and the totalizing influence of Israel. With this single move, the mayor is assisting the NYPD in surveilling New Yorkers and also giving money to the genocidal machinery killing Palestinians. Despicable
⚡️ Mayor Zohran Mamdani's NYPD is poised to sign a three-year, $750,500 no-bid contract with Israeli surveillance firm Cognyte for FalcoNet, an AI-driven device that mimics a cell tower to track phones and can be mounted on police cars and drones or hidden in a backpack, the New York Daily News reported.
Cognyte won a tender to sell intercept spyware to Myanmar's state telecom weeks before the 2021 military coup, Reuters previously reported. Meta banned the firm the same year, saying its customers used fake accounts to target journalists and politicians in Kenya, Mexico and Indonesia.
The firm is part of an Israeli surveillance industry that grew big as a result of the military's monitoring of Palestinians, whose phone calls Israel's Unit 8200 has intercepted and stored by the millions, including to carry out genocide in Gaza and enforce a brutal illegal occupation in Jerusalem and the West Bank.

its insane how not many people are talking about how republicans with the help of several moderate democrats are building out the largest abusive medical conversion therapy operation in modern american history

Breaking: Donald Trump was "an active participant in Jeffrey Epstein’s abuse of young women in the mid-to-late 1990s,” according to a report issued today by Dems on the House Judiciary Committee. The report includes one new rape allegation against Trump, and calls for a special investigation of the Trump administration's cover-up of Epstein's crimes.

.@MarkJCarney is ecstatic today and is about to ram through the most carbon-intensive, climate-destroying projects we've seen in years.
Congratulations, @LDoerkson, on your election victory.
I look forward to working with you as Premier to get more homes built, unleash our full potential as an energy superpower, and build a stronger British Columbia and a stronger Canada for all.
Thank you, Premier @Dave_Eby, for your service and all we’ve accomplished together. Major infrastructure projects launched. Export markets unlocked. Jobs protected.
I wish you and your family all the best in this next chapter.

This clown shouldn’t have been leader to begin with, the party had to screw over a grassroots candidate in 2022 to coronate him. Great piece on that here from @TheBreachMedia: breachmedia.ca/how-the-ndp-e…
"I'll be offering my resignation as premier. Obviously."
@Dave_Eby confirms he is stepping down as Premier and BC NDP leader following his election loss to @LDoerkson's BC Conservatives.
