The QT Library, an upcoming queer and trans library and community space I volunteer for, is still looking for anybody who wants to support this work that means the world to me!
🙏 You can support us as we cultivate a queer and trans community in Boston with events like these right now!
We're trying to raise $100K to get us one step closer to our dream space, and you can help us get there: secure.givelively.org/donate/92-39...

tears in my eyes, legitimately. this could have done so much good when i was a kid/teen. i’m glad some of today’s kids have something like this.
Sometimes I think it’s going to be the librarians who will save us all.

this is a good thread, i like this thread.
there's like... two layers of any given concept
there's "what the thing is" and then there's "the surface stuff"
take a 'western,' right? some people will be like:
1) cowboy
2) this town is too small for you and i, so one of us will have to leave and/or die
3) bandits
4) gunfights
but does it?

"Death of the Author" doesn't mean separating the author's bad behaviour from their art. It means taking away their authority and allowing readers to interpret the art based on their own perspectives. It doesn't absolve the author of being a bastard, in fact it may inform how you interpret the art.

"An artist owes you, not only his industry, but his judgment; and he betrays you if he sacrifices it to your opinion," (a paraphrase of Edmund Burke) is one of those quotes I try to have as my north star as a creator.

Because the big social media platforms are themselves the thing pushing fascism, and the accounts producing the specific misinformation and ideological poison they use to do so are simply the crops they sow, and can be entirely geographically decentralised.
genuinely says so much about what twitter has become that the biggest rightwing grift accounts pushing US fascist narratives aren’t real people and not even close to the united states

IT’S DONE! A cross stitch T-120 VHS to go with the Polaroid VHS I made awhile back. This one is full of Space Ghost: Coast 2 Coast taped off late-night Cartoon Network in the late 1990s.

Whoa it's almost like this entire cultural movement is based on fake bullshit at every level and our leaders should stop letting fucking social media dictate policy
Twitter had to turn off its location feature within hours because thousands of prominent and "verified" MAGA accounts turned out to be foreign and I think it's hilarious that Elon was the one who exposed them all

This is a brilliant for of protest and can and should be adapted to many other uses. This is really really smart protest.
In Monrovia, California, protesters are purchasing 17¢ ICE scrapers from Home Depot and immediately returning them to create long lines and slow down the entire store. Their aim is to disrupt sales and convey a message opposing ICE raids occurring in their neighborhood.

They tried that with Reconstruction, and look what it wrought. Traitors back into the government they betrayed. The establishment of the KKK. Jim Crowe laws.
Well, FUCK. THAT.
I want tribunals, I want Truth and RETRIBUTION, and I want each and every one of the guilty nailed to the fucking wall.

There are going to be prominent Democrats and mainstream media voices who insist that we have to "turn the page" and "forgive and forget" and they should all be roundly ignored, if not mercilessly mocked.
It’s crazy to think about the crimes we’re going to learn about after this regime ends.
We’re already hearing about Watergate level crimes every week. Imagine what will come out after it’s over.
We’re going to need a full accounting of all that’s been done in violation of the constitution.
