Most of these people are deeply trained, or at least highly educated, in humanities. Knowing isn’t being.

Anyone who claims that Silicon Valley would be better with more humanities education has to grapple with the fact that Peter Thiel was a philosophy major.

Gavin Newsom continues to be a disappointment to trans Californians. TWIBS brought to you by @alyssaur.bsky.social

TWIBS: Governor Newsom May Be a Threat to Trans Americans — Assigned

Gavin Newsom has spent a lot of time declaring himself the greatest hero of the queer community to ever live, but his words and actions rarely seem to align these days.

Really surprised by this Jetspeed Babes v. FTR/Megan Bayne match on Collision, most intergender matches are a little clunky because of the whole "only women fight women, only men fight men" shit and this one was just a straight up proper intergender brawl and it ruled

This thread. And why what we charge for shirts (less than Target btw) is a *steal* we get our Bella canvas blanks from a wholesaler but we design, screen print, & fulfill in house. We're a very small number of queers doing it on top of donating. Not sure what more we can do to convince people to buy

This two-parter below is exactly why it's hard to make clothes in the United States.

Let's look at how much it costs to produce a button-up shirt in the US. 🧵

Someone on Twitter replies to me: "meh. buy american or stfu."

Two hours later, in a separate thread, the write: "$30 for a single button-up is ridiculous unless it is decent quality silk."

It's hard to help Americans left behind because so much of US identity is rooted in individualism. The average American conservative holds all three positions at once:

— Virtue signals about supporting US manufacturing
— Against raising the minimum wage
— Buys foreign imports because they're cheap

HardPass4 on Twitter tweets: "I'm willing to pay more for quality products if they are made in America, by Americans, who are paid a decent income." The tweet shows Norman Rockwell's "Freedom of Speech" painting, which is often used to show the tweeter is expressing a brave opinion.

HardPass4 on Twitter tweets: "MINIMUM WAGE JOBS WERE NOT MEANT TO BE A CAREER. Why does no one understand this? Entry level jobs are STEPPING STONES to better jobs. No one wants to work towards that though."

HardPass4 on Twitter tweets: "Buy $5 gloves instead of $50 ones. Trust me." The tweet shows a box of "Gorilla Grip" gloves.

The label on Gorilla Grip gloves show they're made in China.

It's so strange seeing everyone say over and over again that there's no such thing as a trans kid when I literally was one. I was homeschooled and I still told my parents I was a girl at eight years old. They were doing conversion therapy on me years before I met a trans person for the first time.

It’s actually incredible that as a society we never managed to find the political will to force elected officials to tell the truth on TV.

There are a tremendous number of ICE watchers out in Rogers Park this afternoon after some early morning abductions.

People are guarding churches and patrolling alleyways. Ran into Alderperson Hadden. First timers tell us they're primed and ready to use their whistles.

People are spontaneously posting up near any laborers or street vendors they spot. Just saw a rapid responder guarding a man working on a building exterior. Many things are terrible today but lord, this stuff matters.

Like Tron really needs to lean into the “users as gods” idea to critique the pseudo religious fervor techno fascists like Musk and Bezos build around themselves and really lean into the whole choosing your own identity theme more (with more queer and BIPOC folks explicitly).

Honestly, Grok sponsoring a Tron movie is the most anti-Tron thing and just shows how much Ares is straight up corporate tech bro propaganda. It’s very sad. Tron has such potential and never fully gets there. Legacy and Uprising are good but Tron: Identity tbh is the franchise peak.

A sponsorship installation for Musks Grok doing AI bullshit at the Tron Ares premiere.
