No shit I'm furious. I spent eleven years learning to write well about complex topics in ethical ways, often for criminally low rates, because I believe that work's important. It's deeply insulting to see a total dipshit get fabulously wealthy for telling the rich what they want to hear!

So-called “conversion therapy” is an abusive pseudoscience that pits kids against their families and has been rejected by EVERY major medical & mental health organization.

This week, the Supreme Court will hear oral arguments in a case challenging Colorado’s ban on this dangerous practice.

"if this flag offends you I'll help you pack" people when graffiti offends them

Pride Was A Riot, Sacramento @pridewasariot.bsky.social · 9d

Flanders.

An image reads “milkshake Andy @milkshakes.”

Milkshake Andy just says “Trantifa.” He’s quote tweeting Greg @waywardgreg. Text reads, “I’m not too sure how much longer I can stand living in Portland.” An image of graffiti on a building reads “girl cock tastes better.” Imposed text over the screenshot replies to Greg, which says “then leave.”

Going back feels like a death to my morals and another failure to break away from this familial trauma bond, but also having no shelter fucking sucks.
