I know we are all feeling a particular way about the government removing photos of non-white, non-male leaders from their buildings. Here are images from my rural queer joy exhibitions; we put up big photos of the gays™️ in Wyoming. My book under review is about the value of art for communication 1/🧵

“The existence of even one ex gay dismantles the central lie of homosexuality, that it is an innate characteristic from birth and therefore should have human rights awarded to it.”

Same shit different era.

Chloe Cole: The existence of even one detransitioner dismantles the central lie of transgenderism, that it is an innate characteristic from birth and therefore should have human rights awarded to it.

Today we explored arguments that American society has "less social capital."

Yet we see protests happening daily. People trying to intervene on behalf of neighbors being detained by ICE.

That is not a society with zero social capital.

At this point, Ben Affleck must be some combination of the following to engender such loyalty from his exes:

1- he is so very troubled but in a way that makes people feel bad for him, like a kicked puppy
2- he has just off the charts sex skills?

I just know their solution to AI not generating revenue is that the crappy useless AI videos will automatically add ads. And all the internet is going to be is one AI pornbot trying to sell you weightloss tea.

I will never forgive nor forget how we treat children in this country.

How we treat adults too, but especially how we treat our children. The state sanctioned, and culturally sanctioned, violence on children.
