Today for @theverge.com, I talk about transfem narratives: the epistemic lockout from mainstream publishing, the advantages and pitfalls of the self-pub model, and what a global transmisogynistic panic implies for our ability to make our voices heard and represent our own lives and worlds.
Trans women are building their own publishing world, and it’s under threat
Online communities are stepping in where traditional publishing stops.

trump is so incredibly transactional that moving on from kirk already makes perfect sense, kirk is no longer a useful object for him, dead men can’t organize voters. a more strategic thinker would look beyond brass tacks, but that’s not trump and it never has been.
people who have been shitting their pants all week about civil war have continually failed to remember that trump is *uniquely* bad at capitalizing on events that require him to demonstrate empathy
Q: My condolences on the loss of your friend Charlie Kirk. How are you holding up?
TRUMP: I think very good. And by the way, right there you see all the trucks. They just started construction of the new ballroom for the White House, which is something they've been trying to get for about 150 years.

Itch and Steam got a bunch of us thinking; we need a catalogue where creative (esp. NSFW & Queer) works are less vulnerable to censorship. A storefront we won't be delisted from. One giving us the autonomy to sell our stuff our way. So we're making Conjured Ink. You can join us. https://conjured.ink

Collective Shout, the group that took credit for bullying Mastercard into recently censoring more platforms, stated that apparently it took them ~1000 phonecalls to convince them to give them what they wanted?
We got like way more people than that don't we?

ok then. one angle of attack then needs to be actively bombarding Visa and Mastercard's phone numbers and emails.
are customer support phone numbers/emails the best avenue to start with or is there a better option?
