Does anyone realize that the opposite of DEI is segregation, conformity, inequity, injustice, bias, discrimination, exclusion, and omission. Why would anyone want to go back to these?
BREAKING: A federal judge reversed National Institutes of Health's terminations of hundreds of critical research grants that were canceled because of their alleged connection to disfavored topics, including diversity, equity, inclusion, and gender identity.
This is a major win for public health.

Guys, it's the oligarchs. If you want to blame someone for 2024, blame the oligarchs. Anyone telling you to blame someone else is part of the oligarchy. Dark money has been to blame since citizens united.
The biggest endorsement I can make for Bluesky is that replacing Twitter with this app on my phone probably improved my general mood when I’m on my phone by 20-25%. I know there are better reasons but it is what it is!

Phang: We don’t need the Ten Commandments hanging in Texas schools. What we need is common-sense gun legislation—so the kids can live.
If my kid goes to a public school in Texas and they can’t come home alive, I don’t give a shit about the Ten Commandments being posted on the wall.
Can't help but feel we're living through an increasingly existential war between spectacle and substance with spectacle winning battle after battle after battle.

and nothing has changed.
“Bluesky is dying!”
The biggest news on Twitter is a bunch of transphobes celebrating a 17 year old girl killing herself.
I’d rather be here than there.

4-year-old Bakersfield girl facing deportation could die within days of losing medical care - Los Angeles Times
Don’t ever tell me that Christians support the GOP. There is nothing Christian or Christ-like about this. Just plain old cruelty and callousness:
4-year-old Bakersfield girl facing deportation could die within days of losing medical care
In 2023, a Mexican girl, 4, was allowed U.S. entry for lifesaving medical care. She and her parents, who live in Bakersfield, have been told they must leave.

Ok I am completely broken by this. The Hague and UN need to see this.
#TexasYour jobs weren't taken.
A man with two kids starving in his own country and being extorted by gangs, who walked 1100 miles to the border, didn't take your Job.
He came here for one you won't do.
I could be wrong about this but I really think most Americans do not want to be forced to “do their own research” about food & drug & product safety and would rather that the government agencies that have been sorting that all out for them for decades not be obliterated in the name of “efficiency.”
He is just completely disconnected from the reality of how his policies impact average Americans, and he is surrounded my sycophants 24/7 who tell him that he’s the greatest, everything is perfect, and everyone loves him. He lives in a fantasy world.

We are living in one of the few times in human history where you can buy a loaf of bread and if it says it’s made with wheat flour and salt and yeast and water and nothing else, it’s probably made from just those ingredients, and some people want to END this.
A LOT of people do not want to hear it but in the United States at least, food has never been safer to eat, not to mention tastier

Actually, you do have the power to bring Kilmar back Mr. President. Follow the Supreme Court’s order and get him home to his family in the U.S. now.

The "mean" in "Greenwich Mean Time" actually means "mean" (like, average). I did not know this!
To calculate GMT they took the position of the sun throughout the year and averaged it out to find the average solar noon in Greenwich and based the time on that!

A reminder that every small bit of good you do - whether it be putting art into the world, helping a friend or stranger, donating to a good cause, or just listening to someone who needs to vent - offsets all the evil in the world just a little bit. And sometimes that's just what the world needs.

stealing like meme from my hellsite replies because lmao
Former heroin addict turned HGH guy with worms in his brain who plays around with roadkill and only drinks raw milk: Everyone else is stupid and, frankly, their teeth work too good.
RFK Jr: "We found that there's a direct inverse correlation between fluoride exposure and low IQ in children. So the more you get, the stupider you are."
