I don’t ever want hear another “oh, he wouldn’t do that” He just did babe, now what are you going to do about it? If citizens being plucked off the streets due to legalized racial profiling isn’t enough, then how about free speech. I thought y’all cared about that?

It’s not us versus our neighbor. It’s us vs government. It’s us vs amoral billionaires. It’s us vs the healthcare system. POLITICIANS. WORK. FOR US. The greatest and most successful power move was to make us *forget* that we have any power at all before systematically taking it away

We are not witnessing the collapse of Democracy. We are living through the solidification of a fascist regime. We are not spectators. This is at our doorstep and like frogs in boiling water, we have normalized the thing trying to hurt us. Because the tactic is overwhelm, exhaust, and divide.

If you’ve followed me for any length of time this is the most obvious thing I could write. But with our current dystopian reality in the US, I want to be as clear as possible.

Transphobia has no place in gaming. Not at any company I work at, not in any company I’ve *worked* with. I will not negotiate over tolerance for human existence and dignity. If you believe that a person is less of a person because of their race, gender, sexuality or otherwise…gtfo

Bro, it seriously sooo cult-like. You’re correct! 😵‍💫🥴

Surena Marie 🍓 @surenamarie.bsky.social · 25d

It’s sooo cultish and strange. Although i just saw a new jeep wrangler commercial that seems to be a “hip new urban” thing they are trying out. I saw it while watching Buffy which makes me think they have entirely different demos they market the same thing too. Seeing it in real time is wild

The Witch Wolf - a webcomic about love and magic by Dani Carr and Bree Williams

Comic panels - the top shows the full moon and the legs of three white women dancing around a cauldron. The next three panels show their hands casting pink, blue, and gold magic.

Illuminating thread from Ify. Recommend checking it out and employing some critical thinking.

I’m doing my best to work against the smear campaign that has been going on in the background via whispers and texts for almost 2 years now.

When Surena’s video came out, everyone decided to “step back and let the courts stuff settle” but that doesn’t undo the damage that was done.
