The fundamental choice has not been as stark since World War II: democracy and freedom, or dictatorship and tyranny. Trump and his sycophants are siding with the latter. The rest of us must loudly, proudly, and boldly proclaim our allegiance to the former.
I did search but did not find anything, which is why I asked. But I appreciate your time.
I have a been thinking for a long time that technology has come such a long way that *none* of the biggest problems facing the average person has an immenent technological solution and most of them can be solved with policy or social changes. That is terrifying to a LOT of rich people.
Has the equality caucus released any statements about Gavin Newsomās or Pete Buttigiegās comments, specifically about trans athletes? Trying to have an open mind.
š¤š From Youngstown to Columbus - letās come together for a cause! šš¤ On September 20th, join us in supporting a statewide food drive benefiting: š Second Harvest Food Bank of the Mahoning Valley š½ Mid-Ohio Food Collective #Crew96
šš¤šµšø Thank you to everyone who supported A MASSIVE Welcome to Wessam Abou Ali! Together, we beat our goal of raising $1,996 for the Palestinian Childrenās Relief Fund in less than a week! This team, this fanbase continues to be the hardest working in MLS. Welcome to Columbus Wessam! šµšøšš¤

Seems Patrick hid his last name in an effort to stay hidden. This man slammed that person head on the ground.
A small bit of clarity. While organization of the fundraiser has been facilitated by the Discordecke, it is being driven by yours truly. This is about as grass-roots and fan-lead as it can get! Also sharing the new QR code for the fundraiser!
"I see it as motivation for myself to state my name. Because is anyone here ever going to forget Cucho? No. Is anyone going to forget Wessam? No." #Crew96 striker Wessam Abou Ali is officially in Columbus and feels ready to solidify his name. More in my latest www.dispatch.com/story/sports...
Hope you don't mind if I drop this here. I'm driving a fundraising drive supporting the Palestinian Children's Relief Fund in honor of Wessam's signing as he played for the Palestine national team. We want to show him how MASSIVE our fans are!
Hope you don't mind plugging my charity fundraiser here! We're raising money for the Palestinian Children's Relief Fund in honor of Wessam's arrival.
Wessamās here, Columbus! šš¤ Make it a MASSIVE welcome on the pitch + off through the PCRF, helping kids in Palestine + across the region. #crew96 #columbus #pcrf pcrf1.app.neoncrm.com/np/clients/p...
youāre so close

Eleven more libraries will reopen on Sundays, thanks to the leadership of the City Council. They never should've been closed in the first place. As Mayor, I'll end this absurd budget dance that keeps our beloved libraries in limbo year after year.
WU-TANG FOREVER šš½

Respectfully, if Trump v CASA Inc is so inconsequential, what do you make of the dissent in that case?
Never allow yourself to be complacent or gaslit when it comes to how evil, everyday people with ostensibly good intentions are capable of being. Especially, now.
Fuck these cowards
Sad that the Crew doesnāt do any sort of outreach to the LGBT community. Sure they sell rainbow merch and put some players in the MLS Pride jerseys for the warmup but even their own socials refuse to directly acknowledge LGBT all.
Does the Nordecke have any plans to engage in a pressure campaign to get the Crew to celebrate Pride and do actual outreach to the LGBT community as a part of the Soccer for All initiative? Very dissatisfied with how they handled Pride month.
WOOHOO!! WE NOW OFFER OUR 'BE PREPARED FOR ICE' DOWNLOADABLE CARD IN SEVERAL LANGUAGES! You can find the page by searching the web for "we the people defend iceman cometh", and hit the link to translate the image right above the card image at the end of the page.
How about we have party leaders focus on the words of a United States congressman - Sen. Tommy Tuberville of Alabama - whoās calling Black people āinner city ratsā who leach off of Americaās taxpayers. Stop the focus on municipal elections and get to this. Where is the censure and condemnation?
A joy to march in NYC Pride with the people's champ Tish James š³ļøāš
Fantastic work Nordecke and Drea Brooke! Way to show some Pride!
Zohran Mamdaniās win has inspired over 3400 young people to raise their hands to run for office just since Tuesday. Itās now @runforsomething.netās biggest candidate recruitment moment since the election. A new generation of leaders is here.
In the words of Nelson Mandela: it always seems impossible until itās done. My friends, it is done. And you are the ones who did it. I am honored to be your Democratic nominee for the Mayor of New York City.
This is why weāre out in the streets - you cannot defend the actions of people who would lie to kidnap 1st graders. Any human being with a conscience is going to take that personally.
This is fascist shit. Wake up people. The time is now.
Sarah Huckabee Sanders was once politely asked to leave a restaurant and it generated 100x as much handwringing from the media as this will
This seems wild. Whats the story here?
Bravo to Milla Magee for following her morals on this one. These pageants are gross and exploit girls and women of all ages. Itās telling we donāt trot men around like we do these women.
Congratulations @katiehonan.bsky.social on writing the best piece of predictive science fiction of all time
š Letter carriers are out of this world! A big thank-you to Florida Space Coast Branch 2689 and all NALC members across the country out on their routes today helping to support local food banks. Together, we can #StampOutHunger! šø Branches: Donāt forget to share your photos with photos@nalc.org!
We already have an Air Force One that is highly tailored to meet the operational and security needs of the United States. This is a MASSIVE security risk and blatant corruption.
BREAKING: President Trump just fired our nation's Librarian. My statement here:
So, yeah, Morgan is generally very bad. But this is actually a model for how interviewers should follow up with people saying outlandish things and not just move on to the next topic.
Oh yeah nice one kid hook that hope for humanity right into my veins
Thanks to the advocacy of @kendraphlcouncil.bsky.social, @domesticworkers.bsky.social, and so many other councilmembers, leaders, and partners, the POWER Act is now PASSED. This will expand protections for over 750k workers & make Philly one of the most pro-worker cities in the country.
It really is this simple. #TransRightsAreHumanRights
I just quit using Google as my primary search. Been using it without a second thought for over two decades. No way to disable to AI results at the top of the list. Frequently wrong. Always wasting my time.

Dear god let this man cook.
Due to all the NOAA cuts, we have less real time data to work with regarding today's storms. There's no profile of the current atmosphere for the entire state of WI.
ARE YOU FUCKING AWAKE YET? Section 4 is laying the pieces to use American Military as Law Enforcement and Martial Law.
Food for thought. External QA, animators, voice actors, and musicians deserve to be part of the narrative of game makers.
This is treason. www.npr.org/2025/04/28/n...
The final honor guard for Pope Francis included migrants, prisoners, transgender people, the homeless and others selected by the Vicariate of Rome as a symbol of the late popeās mission of inclusion and outreach. Read more from the funeral: wapo.st/3YdDGqM
They make it sound like there are millions of dead people getting Social Security checks. But it's just not true.
Any moderately competent historian could have told you this is always where it was going to lead
Removing a black 4-star general at Secretary of Defense and replacing him with a white talk-show is the perfect example why DEI is essential. It's not about hiring unqualified minorities, itās about foiling the majority's habit of hooking up under qualified mediocrities of their own caste.
This. Is. Dictator. Shit. The time to stop fucking around is now. If we donāt act in mass against this then our country is doomed. www.cnbc.com/2025/04/25/f...
This regime is beyond evil and vile and must be stopped or else the 30s in America is going to look a hell of a lot like the 30s in Germany and will eventually look a like mid 40s in Japan. Specifically 1945.
A reminder that the revolution will not be televised. It wonāt be on your state-approved media channels.

Cops that lie and abuse their power as an officer of the law should not only be fired but also be prosecuted for their abuses of power. Qualified immunity does nothing but protect bad officers at the expense of the public.
Heās the flashpoint. A sympathetic case to be tried in public and the courts whose outcome will apply to all those individuals. Rosa Parks wasnāt the first rider to refuse giving up their bus seat.
Gavin Newsom is doing a speed run to ruin all his credibility with Democrats. It isnāt a ādistractionā to fight for someoneās due process rights when they were disappeared into a foreign prison. Itās a fight for ALL of our rights.
Happy Easter to all who are celebrating today. This season of renewal invites us all to believe in the triumph of light over darkness, life over death, love over hate.
WOW! Don Pettit turned 70 while returning to Earth. He is one of my favorite astronauts. He is a genius in the lab, an educator and science commentator, a photographer, and all around amazing human being. Happy Birthday Don!
Okay? Then why are the children suing? As per the CBS article: ā"The kids are obviously hurting, they need the finances to help them with everyday supplies, and they're not getting answers," George S. Robinson IV, the children's attorney, told the Banner.ā
I donāt feel so bad any more. www.cbsnews.com/amp/baltimor...
The only appropriate response to this is impeachment and removal from office. Every moment the political press spends spinning out theories about 2026 and immigration polling is a minute they are not spending asking Republicans in Congress about their plans to enforce the rule of law
Yeah Iām sorry that this woman has had to suffer so greatly, but that doesnāt excuse her behavior. Iām not happy that my gut reaction is to say āScrew this bitch.ā But weāre at a point where I donāt know how to get through to these people. She is defending evil fascists and their actions.
Guys, this is David Brooks in the NY Times. If it's like this 90 days into this presidency with people who wouldn't be caught dead saying it last year, imagine it in two years. Something good is happening, we just have to lift everybody up so they can see it. www.nytimes.com/2025/04/17/o...
BREAKING: Juan Carlos Lopez-Gomez has been released. This is the moment he reunited with his mom.
I cannot convey enough how grateful I am to the millions of you all supporting us with your time, resources, and energy. Your support has allowed us to rally people together at record scale to organize their communities. All with an average donation of $21. THANK YOU & Paālante šš½ā„ļø
Yeah, I can see glimpses of him breaking through. This last episode feels like a tipping point for him. Can only hope itās real.
He pretty much acknowledges that in the bit though.
This is what censorship looks like. All of American culture is built on top of the 1st Amendment. #THE #OhioStateUniversity is capitulating with this fascist regime to derive students of their rights. How can any international student feel safe at #OhioState to express their freedom of expression?
Itās also important to highlight that itās classism. Itās the core of all of this. The wealthy want ultimate control over every aspect of our lives. They want it to go back to being a boys club where women and minorities arenāt invited with notable exceptions for the āgood onesā.
I cannot stress this enough: getting rid of head start is _evil_.
Fucking liars and thieves.
These lawyers should be debarred
Trump wiped 2.5 trillion dollars out from the stock market today. Let's check in on America's most watched cable news network!
Wall Street bets discord is so goddamn funny right now
The Crew are banning signs and banners from the entire stadium during the Miami game because they know some of those signs or banners will be critical of their decision to move the game to Cleveland and they are too soft to deal with that level of criticism.
new meme format just dropped
Every day I wake up to the news
I hope this is taught to future generations. Cory Booker just earned himself a whole hell of a lot of respect from me. This was incredible and is exactly what we need in this moment. Not meek little signs, nor censuring fellow democrats, and most certainly not capitulating to their fascist agenda.
what booker is doing right now is an example of what i mean when i say things like āwe need more ambition right now.ā there is room in american politics right now for people with ambition to take big stands and reap the rewards. heās doing it!
Cory Booker just gave the longest speech in the history of Congress and concluded by apologizing to everyone who had to stay up all night keeping the chamber open and operating.
As Iāve said in this thread before: there is no scientific consensus on trans athletes in sports and every study on them highlights the fact that more data is needed. This paper you cites makes zero definitive claims about transgendered athletes in sports. You need to do better.
This is literally a single paper and not a scientific consensus on trans athletes. And yes, generally speaking High School and Junior sports, particularly team sports, are not really ācompetitiveā in the same manner as more professional leagues. Public school is inherently more inclusive.
No, youāre just intentionally misrepresenting what is being argued. Please go read the Wikileaks that showed what was going on behind the scenes. The party can and does influence primary elections based on internal party politics. That is the argument being made: the primary election wasnāt fair.
Thatās. Not. Engaging. With. The. Argument. Being. Made.
Please provide evidence of people who have not undergone or are not currently undergoing transitioning that are currently competing in a collegiate or professional level. But back to the argument. There is no clear scientific consensus on potential benefits or challenges trans athletes have.
You realize that when people transition their bodies change, right?
Superdelegates, Strategic withdrawals by other candidate , the party putting pressure to favor Hilary over others. The party was not at all neutral when it came to the 2016 primary and this is not new knowledge. It was dirty what they did to Bernie.
There can be discussion and debate about sports. But it should be done by the governing bodies of those sports, and not the government passing laws. āScienceā actually says that the number of trans athletes is so low that we donāt have definitive results and consensus on fairness or advantage.
Libraries are essential for many communities. But funding for them is constantly being reduced, and we are losing these places of knowledge.
