People who believe nothing you post has impact- have no idea how to use a platform & they may also have an interest in discouraging you from speaking out. Online activism matters. Look at what they did to Twitter. Twitter was previously one of the most important communication tools on the planet.

If our posts didn't matter, they wouldn't have wanted to make the internet a place where you can't decide whether a post was written by a bot, a troll or someone who actually knows what they are talking about. They have intentionally gone out of their way to try to sabotage online activism.

beginning to think the post-Reagan bipartisan commitment to corporate self-regulation wasn't a great idea

There was lead in EVERY tampon they tested. There was less lead in organic tampons, but those had higher concentrations of arsenic. Also fun: It's 2024. This is the first ever study testing metals in tampons. Great. 🙃 www.cbsnews.com/amp/news/tox... Study: www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

Never hand a cop your unlocked phone. If a cop with no warrant asks to see your phone, turn it off.

What this article leaves out is that if you hand your unlocked phone to a police officer, they can legally search it. Unless companies develop a method that allows you to show officers insurance cards and driver license without unlocking the rest of your phone, don't. www.zdnet.com/article/digi...

I wish I could shake every news site, channel, and paper because people NEVER STOPPED getting covid, you all just stopped talking about it You are not sorcerers, you can't alter reality with your words

A seasonal wave of #Covid is sweeping across the U.S., driven by the FLiRT variants, a trio of the latest #SARSCoV2 mutants making the rounds. So no, it's not your imagination. People are getting Covid again www.seattletimes.com/nation-world...

Yep, people are getting COVID againwww.seattletimes.com A seasonal COVID-19 wave appears to be underway with cases growing or likely growing in 39 states.

"every trick in the book" like, mostly agree to vote against fascists ? hell of a trick it is

It’s amazing the extent to which our billionaire tech bro overlords are just telling us out loud that they are rooting for fascism. Makes me slightly nostalgic for the days when American plutocrats plotted against democracy in secret.

Electric vehicle rebates never "fill up" (they shouldn't!) E-bikes achieve our climate, health & road safety goals better than EVs, but politicians drive everywhere & see people who bike as Others tl;dr subsidies for rich are Incentives (good!); subsidies for working class are Handouts (bad!)

In just 18 minutes, Minnesota received 10,000 applications for e-bike rebates. The website crashed. This happens pretty much every time a state or city offers e-bike rebates for the first time. www.startribune.com/minnesota-e-...

this is not to be apologetic or make excuses for people. it's to make room so that when you hear a survivor come forward, you can set aside the things that are already in your heart

let go of the idea that people are "good" or "bad". people are capable of all sorts of things and we all make choices that we are responsible for. that's it

i just commented this elsewhere but this is also victim-blaming behavior and you should rethink before implying that you are too smart to be fooled or abused. take a long hard think about what are you really saying

I see we've reached the "famous artist credibly accused of sexual assault wasn't actually a great artist and you're a chump for liking him" phase. Consider that pretending terrible people can't make great art helps terrible people who make great art whedon their way into vulnerable communities.

The GOP wants to outlaw porn. If I wanted to beat them, I might make a commercial all about that. I might hire popular adult performers for it. I might run it on every porn site.

Criminalizing sex work has nothing to do with protecting women. Banning adult content on crowdfunding and payment platforms has nothing to do with protecting children. The goal of these laws/policies is to remove one of the few sources of income for queer, disabled, and other marginalized folks.
