political slap fights should be about insufferable philosophy and engineering nerds trying to assassinate each other over nuclear plants vs solar fields not the whiniest fascists in history trying to do yet another decade of "do women and racialized people deserve rights"

Please listen to every Californian telling you Gavin Newsom is a terrible choice and you should not anoint him the Democratic nominee for 2028.
The only thing Gavin Newsom actually cares about is Gavin Newsom. He will sacrifice anyone and anything you care about for his political ambitions.

I'm not even all that far into @taliabhatt.itch.io's book "Brown/Trans/Les" and have already lost track of the number of times I've convulsed with laughter. Bitter laughter, to be sure, because the horror of the underlying realities discussed is never lost, but Bhatt is a *funny* genius. READ THIS!

Also, people going hard for Newsom, who are never, ever from California, have you noticed how many of the people who hate him are FROM California? THAT'S B/C WE KNOW WHAT HAPPENS WHEN YOU ELECT GAVIN NEWSOM AS THE LESSER OF TWO EVILS & IT IS VERY NOT GREAT & WE ARE TRYING TO TELL YOU TO AVOID THAT.

Today, I would like to present a deep dive into feminist history that got away from me.
Like, really got away from me.
It is about the futility of a politics of appeasement. It is about the unburial of a neglected feminist history. But most of all, it's about lesbian feminism, and sins unforgiven.

Democrats should run on the fact that their opposition is literally killing Americans and destroying the country.
It’s not hyperbole. That’s the message they should be blasting out to media every day.
They are killing Americans and destroying the country. They hate our freedom. They hate democracy

Recently, I've been writing a great deal about Nationalism as a lens through which we can synthesize our understandings of racism, misogyny, and queer misogyny as interlinked mechanisms that advance a state's reproductive agenda, in the pursuit of reproducing its hierarchies.
ICYMI, during the holidays we released two new episodes guest-starring Lucy Kartikasari: a discussion of the GC child abuse manual "Irreversible Damage" & of a TERF self-conversion therapy manual "Detransition: Beyond Before And After"

Check in on your trans friends and loved ones. A lot of us are not OK lately, even if we're not wearing that on our sleeves.

Really great thread. Read it, internalise it, realise that solidarity is an absolute necessity.
The thing about accepting Newsom's depravity against trans people or the homeless on the grounds of "Yeah, that's bad, but we have to beat Trump or it'll be worse." is that by accepting it, you mark it as acceptable, both within your mind and in the larger world around you.

There is absolutely no excuse for any Democrat asked about trans athletes to ever respond with anything but “why are you wasting my time asking about FEWER THAN FIFTEEN CHILDREN AND YOUNG ADULTS IN THE ENTIRE COUNTRY WHO WANT TO PLAY GAMES WITH THEIR FRIENDS. What is wrong with you?”
