    There is something so deeply sinister about this completely manufactured fantasy of kids being given transition surgeries at school at a time when kids are quite literally being murdered at school.

    Trump: Can you imagine you're a parent and your son leaves the house and you say, Jimmy, I love you so much. Go have a good day in school and your son comes back with a brutal operation.

    The dissonance on the timeline between Roe news and Met Gala is truly unbearable.

    Oh you mean, the ancient civilization that has recognized third gender identities for hundreds of years thanks to cultural categories like hijras and kothis? Ok!

    Not to get in the way of anyone’s schadenfreude but: Is anyone else super creeped out that there is night vision video of the audience of a random regional performance of a musical?

    I can promise you from personal experience that the most frequent targets of gender harassment in women's bathrooms in the era of bathroom bans will be cis women who do not look stereotypically feminine in some way.

    I was so absorbed by the Trump-Musk bust up that I missed my stop and ended up in Brooklyn. Never happened before.

    My lukewarm take: easier to cut war spending than defense spending.

    One of the paradoxes of Trump's conception of the presidency: he somehow requires absolute and unchecked power, but also seems to think of himself as a passive, tut-tutting observer when the government over which he has that absolute power fails in any way.

    I would like to remind people that Elon Musk is a monster. His legacy is dead children in the poorest places in the world.

    It will never not be funny that Andrew Cuomo's supporters on here call Zohran Mamdani, the son of a college professor and moderately successful indie filmmaker, a nepo baby.
