really tired of conversations about how we need to get people to spend more time offline that don't acknowledge that one of the reasons people ARE online is their access needs aren't being met in physical spaces. This is especially true for queer people and disabled people.

DOJ indicts Democratic congressional candidate Kat Abughazaleh over ICE protests Abughazaleh called the charges "yet another attempt by the Trump administration to criminalize protest and punish those who dare to speak up."

Alien: Earth being so awful shouldn't be the main reason to cancel Disney+, but it is a reason.

But we learned that they're the Empire.

Disney learned nothing from Andor.

Bless All The People Boycotting Disney Thou shalt defend free speech.

Goodbye, Disney+!

Let’s be clear about what happened to Jimmy Kimmel Trump’s most brazen attack on free speech yet.

After years of complaining about cancel culture, the current administration has taken it to a new and dangerous level by routinely threatening regulatory action against media companies unless they muzzle or fire reporters and commentators it doesn’t like.

Call Your Local ABC Station: Stop Caving to Trump Tell ABC: Put Jimmy Kimmel back on the air and start standing up for free speech and your own viewers. P.S. Many ABC affiliates operate across state lines. If our call form didn’t show you the station...

Our friends @freepress.bsky.social make it easy to call your local ABC station to say Stop Caving to Trump.

PRESSURE WORKS!

Sereen Haddad, a Palestinian student at Virginia Commonwealth University, has defeated baseless charges and had her degree restored after an appeal, a successful pressure campaign, and representation from Palestine Legal.

Sereen has lost 200+ members of her family in Gaza.

The mathematics of starvation: how Israel caused a famine in Gaza Israel controls the flow of food into Gaza. It has calculated how many calories Palestinians need to stay alive. Its data shows only a fraction has been allowed in

#ArmsEmbargoNow: Data compiled and published by Israel’s own govt makes it clear that it has been deliberately starving Gaza, reports @theguardian.com.

A worst-case scenario famine is now unfolding in Gaza, UN-backed food security experts said this week.

VICTORY: Our clients UMD SJP will receive a $100,000 settlement from the University of Maryland — the highest financial penalty likely ever imposed on a US university for violating pro-Palestinian students’ free speech rights, to our knowledge.
