We are now further away from the theatrical release of Raiders of the Lost Ark (June 12, 1981) than it was from the year it takes place in (1936). We have reached the Indiana Jones event horizon.
This isn’t even the stuff they’re trying to actually stop from getting out.
Did Underage Girls Ruin Politics?
Tomorrow in the @nytimes.com
Hey so “underage girls” are…children. The word you’re looking for is children. They’re not like, women-in-waiting or women-lite or whatever. They’re children. I think some of you are very uncomfortable with what that means for you but it is still true.
Meanwhile, “did women ruin the workplace?”
"This could take down Democrats, too."
I know. And I frankly wouldn't give even an itty bitty damn if it implicated every Democratic man in Congress, every Democratic hopeful for 2028 and every Democrat who has even thought about running for office.
Down with the sex predators, wherever they are.
NEW: DHS secretly obtained Chicago police data on 900 residents accused of gang ties. It was quietly deleted after intelligence officers violated rules against domestic spying.
The handoff came well after city inspectors formally announced CPD's gang data was deeply flawed and infected w/ bias.
This definitely wins the internet rn.
WTAF?
How do we get off this ride full of Austin Powers and Marvel parodic villains who are actually real?
A must read. @damemagazine.bsky.social nails it as usual.
hi, folks!
is calling federal electeds to ask them not to pass shitty legislation not doing it for you? i get it.
how about helping to bring about positive change that would materially help thousands of trans people? and that's actually possible?
do you know about washington state's HB 1971?🧵

The 988 Suicide & Crisis Lifeline’s specialized services for LGBTQ+ youth will no longer be in operation starting July 17, according to a statement from the US Department of Health and Human Services’ Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration.
Adriana Smith was the victim of misogynoir. An ER ignored her pleas for help, and she died of blood clots in her brain the next day.
The hospital then forced her body to be kept alive to try and save a 9 week old fetus.
Did you know that even if she had a DNR, it wouldn't have mattered?
WE DID IT. All 8 anti-trans bills have been defeated in the Maine legislature! Thank you to the senators and reps that have stood with us, and thank YOU for testifying, calling, emailing, and sharing! Maine has spoken: trans rights are human rights! OUT maine
good news from maine
Just a reminder that white nationalists are the biggest threat to this country and the “immigrant crime wave” is a far-right lie.
The danger in this country , as always, comes from white men who are terrified someone will take away their power, their property, or their guns.
Happy No King’s Day.
All “No Kings” protests against the Trump administration that were scheduled throughout Minnesota today have been canceled, organizers said. Officials had urged people not to attend “out of an abundance of caution" after the assassination of State Representative Melissa Hortman.
They wanted max cruelty. Shock and awe for the cameras. But all they did was traumatize a bunch of poor kids who’ll never forget it.
An L.A. mom, US citizen, watched as unmarked vehicles rolled up. Masked, heavily armed ICE agents, guns drawn. And Cosplay Kristi Noem right there playing warlord!
If a US Senator is not safe from being handcuffed and detained for free speech, none of us are safe.
😕
The most vital thing you can do right now is spread this message offline to normies. There is no "unrest", there's a protest. It has 400 people. LA does worse when the Lakers come in 3rd in a season.
This.

Time to prepare, beloveds. If you are considering stocking up, remember that these pills do expire eventually, and *do not* discuss your actions online or via unencrypted communication. Take no shit, and leave no trace.
