I am not anti-fascist, I am pro liberation. To be pro liberation means you must defeat fascism, but it also means that you fight to create a world that is liberated for all, not just against the thing that is currently harming you.

A gay man in a Brooklyn bar happy hour once told me I had Tina Fey's lips, and I have no idea what he really meant by that but it made me feel fabulous.

Socialism is what they called social security.
Socialism is what they called the growth of free and independent labor organizations.
Socialism is their name for almost anything that helps all the people.

Some of us have been advocating this going back since chatGPT launched. It also has other benefits: correcting someone else's work is actually a really good way to learn something yourself.

“Our special house made gourmet ketchup” shut up x 57
