I think there are still shared norms we can appeal to when we talk to the marginal MAGA voter. But there really are no shared norms left with the core of the movement.

Is there anyone measuring the tipping point of when the Internet becomes so full of slop and misinformation that it becomes more cumbersome to use than a reference library?

I think it is worthwhile to keep trying to express ourselves online and just block rude people

It isn’t with an Rx; I love Zoloft so much ; everyone is different but the right meds can be amazing when you are able to find them. Science is very cool and medicine is a part of science.

When I was in my early 20’s there were antifa groups in Berlin that published zines with pics of Neo-Nazis so that door people could keep them out of punk shows because they always started fights.
So the neo-Nazis published a zine that was called anti-antifa and had the pics of antifa zine makers

I’ve gone through phases of not being able to share art publicly but I’ve never gone through a phase of not being inspired to create, write, draw, and make sculptures. I’m always making things. I’m the worst person to ask about creative block. All I can say is, pick up a new medium?

Dems have in fact stepped away from trans people already and you are correct Dems are now as always have been the same as Republicans, they’re just quieter about their motivations

if the democratic party starts stepping away trans people they might as well sign this country away to the far right forever

One thing I’m *not* going to do is be an emotional crutch for people in a long term comp-het primary financial partnerships that are struggling to maintain intimacy as a side piece; maybe for the right salary but definitely not in my personal life.

I never really experienced WASP culture until spending so much time in New England these last few years and let me tell you — no thank you! I never knew there were so many different kinds of white people until moving to Upstate NY 😂😂😂

What we should be doing is talking about how to support and include people with autism, and listening to people with autism.
