🧵!!! Having recently received a shit diagnosis myself, I am inspired. I have more time, so I shall make my list longer. Let’s goooo.
It was six years ago, and my mate, Pink, had just been told he was going to die. He accepted the news with a grace I can only marvel at, but he said he’d a list of things he’d still like to do. We sat in a pub one night and read it over. Eight things? Four months? Ok. Deal. 🧵

Not gonna lie. When I say "this shit gives me life," I mean that between the latest Trump indictment and the demise of Pat Robertson, I feel like my prognosis has actually improved.

Fucking fucking fuck. Anna and I were Twitter friends and I was so hoping to meet her next time I was in Boston. My condolences to all who loved her.

Aggressive affirmations of radicalism in the fight against the “woke” Left have come to define the American Right - an openly hostile stance against the current order, a permanent permission to keep escalating. New Democracy Americana:
The Reactionary Right Mobilizes   The Right’s open embrace of the coercive power of the state, the rise of National Conservatism, and the role of the reactionary intellectual sphere in the broader rightwing assault on democracy.   New Democracy Americana: thomaszimmer.substack.com/p/…

If certain kinds of speech make YOU feel unsafe, who cares, suck it up snowflake, that’s just free speech. But if it makes ME feel unsafe, well that’s totally different, you really shouldn’t be allowed to do that.

Medication abortion is safe, effective, and will likely continue to be available – this is just another baseless attack. But this case is part of a larger, coordinated effort by extremists to take away all avenues of accessing sexual and reproductive health care.

Funny how centrists never threaten to go left if fascists aren’t civil.

The world’s most important political communications platform, a virtual public square functioning as an essential part of democratic culture: Destroyed within weeks - willfully or not, hard to tell - by some tech oligarch, and no one even tried to stop him. A historic disaster.

Think of people around the world tonight who need Twitter to get their voices heard, to document human rights abuses and injustices, to get attention, expose war crimes, and more. All of them could be about to be cut off because the world’s richest man wanted to own the libs.

While you’re all here… Self-managed abortion is safe. According to @WHO a person can swallow one mifepristone pill followed by four misoprostol pills dissolved under the tongue 24-28 hours later up to 12 weeks of pregnancy. A person does not need to tell police what they took.

Exciting news #MedTwitter! @ANSIRH & @TxPEPresearch launched a project where health care providers can submit stories of poor-quality medical care since the Dobbs decision. We need this information to understand the impact of abortion bans beyond abortion. carepostroe.ucsf.edu/

In many ways, DeSantis embodies Trumpism as a political project and promise: He is all in on mobilizing the coercive power of the state for the purpose of imposing a reactionary white nationalist order on the country, and on punishing those who dare to deviate.

Our votes decide elections. Not journalists or politicians. Media projections aren't the results. Early returns aren't final results, because they are early, not final. Good work takes time. Wait for our elections officials to #CountEveryVote.

On Election Day eve, Twitter has suspended @sdoute , the executive director of the League of Women Voters of California @LWVC on the eve of midterm elections . No warning. No explanation. No way to appeal. What is next?
