This is always what these ppl want, for us to die for their comfort to continue. When they say shit like this, it's so that they can run your blood, our blood, to keep things comfy for them. And to you, this is the signal they are not in allyship & should be jettisoned out or castigated.

So who among your family and friends are you willing to let die for "long-horizon strategy"? Are YOU willing to die? You willing to forego life-saving healthcare, using public restrooms, deciding your own name, not being beaten to death by any jackass who thinks you look "wrong"?

No? Then shut up.

I hate to say it but the majority of the country is not going to die on the hill of trans rights. We can’t protect ANY groups if we can’t win a national election, so purity tests only serve to make specific groups feel triumphant. That’s not “erasing” them; it’s long-horizon strategy.

It continues to be wild to me how much trouble any prosecutor is having prosecuting any of these fuckers on the right when every accusation they make against their enemies is just something from their own playbook they are openly using. Like, if you actually care, you are hella incompetent.

40 hour work week should cover housing, healthcare, and childcare. If it doesn’t, we should be rioting because someone is fucking with us.

The violent, lawless anarchy of Portland. Truly, it is a land without god or kindness XD.

Streets are still closed off in front of the Portland ICE facility at 8:30pm. Protesters have gathered on a side street. Dance party in progress.

a crude drawing of a trash bin with a large human face sticking out of the top of it, surrounded by trash, with the caption "early testing for the public trash bins with human faces that beg to be fed garbage indicated that most found them too unsettling to use. However, the small number of participants, including some investors, who said they found the bins deeply erotic, and attempted to form romantic relationships with the bins was considered promising enough to continue funding the project."

I'm going to be turning off replies, quotes, and muting notifs for this now, as the AI dorks have found the post, but I do just want to state on the record, to those saying "you're not better than us for NOT using AI" --

yes I am 💅

you're all losers

Agreed. It's all the better when you follow a bunch of trans journo girls, and suddenly find out they have the most rabid opinions about football, and you discover this whole subculture you've never seen. Very enjoyable, very funny, very cool lol.

@404media.co, I think this might be a thing for you, especially if they are using some new app to help figure this shit out like that price fixing scandal they pulled last time.

I wonder if any journalists have bothered talking to landlords of people who've been abducted by ICE.

Like there are reddit posts of landlords openly planning on using ICE to evict their tenants for them, etc.

when I was defending itch I heard from a lot of - frankly to my shock - other queers who were like "it's a platform, platforms are the enemy" and until we're able to distinguish _as users_ the ways in which worker owned services aren't your enemy and deserve grace, we won't be seeing very many

Lol it is not easy, and even I fail at it regularly. But stg, far too much of our psyche is wrapped up in thinking that if a thing isn't good enough to monetize we shouldn't do it, and that, if we can't earn $ on it that we aren't good at it. And both of these are patently false & just help shit ppl

I don't know, having dealt with cops, I think they lie like cops, maybe the stupidest ones, and we just aren't used to decades of PR to make us not listen. They are all escalating symptoms of the same problem, and our reticence to truly see that is part of why it continues to escalate.

Ian Boudreau @ianboudreau.com · 1d

I've been trying to put my finger on why ICE/DHS lies feel so much more outrageous than normal cop lies, and I think it's because they don't lie like cops, they lie like aggressively stupid criminals

G. Tyler @supinearcanum.bsky.social · 1d

I feel like we are living in an age of such just distrust online, that it's useful to state in some capacity that the work is dubious. Especially considering how in games sometimes it can take hours of play to find big proof & by then you oft can't return the work. Feel a new term is in order.

Blue Jays are dope, but it's important to remember they are the assholes of birds. They like to shove all the other birds off your feeders and stuff themselves and are generally bullies. Tis a shame, cause they are pretty lol.

Lol how it feels learning japanese. I'd love to be fluent, but that's not a mastery, it's more of I want to have fun talking to people, and its fun, even if I struggle. Like, the struggle is the fun, and my only problem is finding other ppl to talk to lol.

Collage is also cool 😎

The fact that no one has made a Looney Toons immersive sim or a Muppets one where you are Kermit or Scooter trying to keep the theater together is a sign we are still not in the best possible timeline XD.

G. Tyler @supinearcanum.bsky.social · 2d

Falling in love with something that you are not looking to master, but rather looking to master loving, is one of the most important things you will do to keep yourself mentally healthy. We are too used to learning for commodity rather than learning for the joy of the art. Learn & don't feel bad.

Cultivate a couple of hobbies. Ideally, things that have nothing to do with your day job and that bring you joy, even if you're not great at them.

“The source told CBS News that [Kash Patel and Dan Bongino] asked for "large, beefy" agents to conduct an arrest of Comey "in full kit," including Kevlar vests and exterior wear emblazoned with the FBI logo.” The leadership of the FBI is now in the hands of infantile psychopaths.

most of your favorite (still living) comedians are now assholes because the personality trait that drove them to success (desperately needing love from everyone) is emotional kryptonite once you are rich, successful, well known, and still fucking hate yourself.
