Fantastic piece from
@dahlialithwick.bsky.social on the tide finally starting to turn: "But what really matters—what is measurable and knowable now in a way that was not a few weeks ago—is that standing up to Trump is going to be worth it."
slate.com/news-and-pol...A year or so ago the bipolar community here contributed to some infographics I put together. I just made some updates to the “Mania for Normies” handout; more feedback is always welcome, these are living docs!
I’d love for folks to share it with anyone who could benefit 😃

Breast cancer diagnoses rose by over 300% between 1973 and 1992.
Was there a breast cancer epidemic?!
NO.
Mammograms were implemented for screening in 1976.
PREVALENCE is a function of being able to correctly diagnose something.
This is also about autism.
they’re never gonna get apologies or their friends back.
they simply don’t understand. they keep digging down.
the establishment further persecuting their target of harassment isn’t a vindication it’s a condemnation.
it cements their place on the wrong side of history.
another beautiful piece which complains about people ignoring women then proceeds, seamlessly, to entirely ignore the cis women who support trans rights

Amen.
It's only been three months and it seems like Trump has done the equivalent of 7000 Watergates already. It's almost as if it was a mistake for Ford to have pardoned his predecessor.

This ICE official sounds a lot like General John DeWitt in February 1942 calling for internment of Japanese Americans: “the very fact that no sabotage has taken place to date is a disturbing and confirming indication that such action will be taken.”
www.nps.gov/articles/his...I keep coming back to the insanity of this statement from an ICE official, which would sound like something out of 1984 except lacks Orwell's sense of irony and self-awareness

Also, I hope someone in Hell went over to Strom Thurmond, got the demons who were thrashing him with burning razor wire to pause for a sec, and then told that tortured, shriveled soul that a Black man from New Jersey just surpassed his filibuster record.

Musk Signals Willingness To Bid More Than $97 Billion To Acquire Respect
WASHINGTON—Stressing that he was open to going far higher to close the deal, Tesla CEO Elon Musk announced Wednesday that he had made an unsolicited $97.4 billion offer to acquire respect. “This is a ...
After attending the super right wing and "racially charged" 1964 GOP convention that nominated Barry Goldwater, Jackie Robinson, a lifelong Republican, said that he now had "a better understanding of how it must have felt to be a Jew in Hitler's Germany." Indeed Jackie, indeed.
The Department of Defense deemed a story about baseball hero and civil rights leader Jackie Robinson's time in the Army as "DEI" and deleted it.
Chuck Schumer Helps Pull Democrats Back From Brink Of Courage
Judge Alsup just now, on Ezell's evasion: "The government has tried to frustrate the judge’s ability to get at the truth of what happened here. It set forth a sham declaration, then withdrew it, then substituted another. That’s not the way it works in the U.S. District Court."
Update: DOJ says Ezell will NOT show up to the hearing tomorrow, defying the court order instructing him to testify. We could be looking at sanctions and contempt hearings next. This is pretty extraordinary.

I've been thinking about this constantly, and will probably write more later, but for now a quick 🧵 to capture my thoughts:
Between AI, the decomposition of media, the looming right-wing threats to Wikipedia, libraries, etc. our legacy and our access to knowledge is in real danger.

I recently saw an amazing Navajo rug at the National Gallery of Art. It looks abstract at first, but it is a detailed representation of the Intel Pentium processor. Called "Replica of a Chip", it was created in 1994 by Marilou Schultz, a Navajo/Diné weaver and math teacher. 1/n
The American insurance industry is not a good system that's broken and needs fixing, it's a cruel system that's working exactly as designed and must be destroyed.
I think one reason why a lot of women resist feminist insights about the extent and vehemence of men’s misogyny is that they can’t accept how stupid it is.
you remember this taste. it tastes like home. it tastes like her. you take another bite. her lips are so distant now. her face softening in your memory: another bite. you don't remember sitting down in this diner: another bite. you don't remember ordering this: another bite. you don't remember dying

there's no such thing as an "underage hooker." minors cannot consent. matt gaetz supported the trafficking of minors. he is a pedophile. there are not special children that it's okay to exploit because you've thrown a sex work word at them like an insult
Have I mentioned Matt Gaetz paid underage hookers?
Because Matt Gaetz paid underage hooker.
All the MAGA bleating about pedophiles is raw, steamy projection.

We have to stop thinking that what affects children won’t affect us. It always has and it always will. We could change the whole world—no hyperbole—by truly putting the welfare of children first, with all the considerations of their full human rights.
let me be very clear that if you’re making the “the democrats should distance themselves from trans issues” argument now, you would have been on the side of “maybe AIDS is simply what gay people deserve” in the 1980s and 1990s
I really fucking wish the AI people who don't understand consent, privacy, risk mitigation, or compassionately answering user concerns about any of the former would stop talking to the public because it's already goddamn hard enough to get people to understand not all machine learning is this shit
