If it seems too fucked up and gross to write, write it anyway, other fucked up weirdos (affectionate) who like fucked up stories will come read it.

Mark McAfee also got a $10M USDA-backed loan to build a brand new factory for raw milk dairy products in 2022. thebusinessjournal.com/arson-destro... We're gonna come back to this later, because it involves his old cheese facility burning down in an arson case some would describe as "suspicious."

“Bluesky book club”, but it’s just everyone reading “Black Reconstruction” by WEB du Bois and realizing how much violence white supremacy and capitalism are willing to deploy to stop public education and wealth redistribution

Incredible line from a grand juror in the Broadview 6 case, who had just asked the prosecutors why they get "unlimited tries" to indict people they don't want to indict: "I heard this case like last week and I thought it was a crock of shit then and I still think it is."

This is true, but also two key points: * it's nobody's fucking business what's in some kid's pants * they made up this entire bullshit fake panic to demonize innocent people, and the people responsible for the panic are actual child sexual predators Free healthcare for all, all the goddamn time.

Oscar Wilde in drag as Salome for Pride.

Im just saying, I hope he’s pretty because she deserves it and he’s gotta bring something to the table and it ain’t gonna be the fame or the accolades, you know?

Simone BILES? The one gravity is afraid of? That Simone Biles? I mean no disrespect to the man but I don’t even know Simone Biles’s husbands name. How many rings has he got? What plays are named after him? Is he a first ballot Hall of Famer?

Call me an idealist, but I think that a prerequisite for hosting an international sport event should be that you're willing to host an international sport event.

So much hatred and violence and right-wing legalese is dedicated to denying women and queer people autonomy over our own lives and futures and bodies because we all owe you families and children and sex and labor, and from the very bottom of my heart, fuck you and your breeder society to the gutter.

The entire problem is that children are treated as parental property believed to owe their parents a lineage, a reproductive future. The existence of the queer or trans child is in and of itself considered untenable---what if it's a phase? It's too early to tell! They could well turn out normal.

Usually when World Cup’s are held in a brutal dictatorship, the quid pro quo for both sides is obvious. With this clusterf***, it's really not clear what the US or FIFA is getting out of it, and the potential lasting damage to both is kinda obvious

Itamar Ben-Gvir is under criminal investigation in Italy after the Israeli cabinet member recorded videos of himself publicly abusing and torturing members of the Global Sumud Flotilla, including Italian citizens. If indicted, it'd be the first European-specific indictment of an Israeli minister.

“We have a red-flag system here, where if there’s anything that gets really out of whack, they can immediately tag the milk, and it doesn’t go to anything but cheese,” he said. “Because...cheese is resistant to pathogens.” But research has shown that raw cheese is **not** resistant to pathogens.

yeah this is the weirdest thing about this discourse. everyone who grew up rural knows that it's rural people who are weirdest about who is really "from here"

Just in time for the big #FFVII announcement, I have an essay about Barret Wallace on @unwinnable.com! I've been thinking about precarity and the practical limits of what stochastic political violence can achieve, and I wanted to talk about what Barret got right. 💣 unwinnable.com/2026/06/08/b...

VICTORY: We just won our lawsuit blocking Trump from worsening labor shortages by imposing an unlawful 100k fee on H-1B visas. This win helps ensure we can protect our economy and fill critical vacancies at our colleges and universities.

I had to put down a “queer retelling“ book by a “medievalist“ last week because the king character in this 13th century French story was just casually agnostic, out loud, and his chaplain was like, shrug, he got educated ”far away” so that seems fine. It’s cool you don’t care about God at all!

But how do these stories get published and *not* mention the dozens of times, over more than 2 decades, that FB/Meta used exactly this strategy to lie by temporarily removing a feature until people stopped watching, then bring it back? Isn’t that pertinent? Their long history of crimes here?

Award-winning Somali referee Omar Artan, set to be the first from his country to officiate at the World Cup, was denied entry to the United States, a sports ministry official told AFP on Monday u.afp.com/SDH9

”Moon goddess shaman warrior hunter woman“ and “hunched woman with baby attached to her, picking berries for hours to further substantiate the group’s diet” are not two separate prehistoric women. They’re the same woman at different times in her life.

my long poem "I'm Aphrodite, Bitches" is now up on Imposter Review! This journal is pretty fucking amazing, and well worth your time. www.imposter-review.org/blog-2-1/im-...

If your response to seeing negative reactions to misogynistic rhetoric is to justify the rhetoric, guess what? You're engaging in misogyny too.

This is Chootie. He looks like a dog, but from one of those 15th century paintings done by someone who had only ever heard about dogs. 12/10 (IG: chootieboy)

It also violates the Trafficking Victims Protection Act. A case about similar GEO Group practices in Colorado is finally going to trial this year (was filed in 2014!). I wrote a bunch about GEO's forced labor policies and the litigation against them here scholar.law.colorado.edu/faculty-arti...

We are enslaving people. Again. Yes, even though we abolished slavery. “[H]istory did not end in 1965.” Shelby County v. Holder. 570 U.S. 529, 552 (2013) (Roberts, C.J.).

A really crucial source of these sexist & anti-feminist sentiments by left/liberal pundits is their insecurity that their soft-handed lives of white collar work mean that they're not real men. They think they can reconcile with masculinity through an aspiration to a kind of brutish, hostile sexism.

Streeting turning the big dial back on LGBTQ progress and constantly looking back at the audience for approval

“some people are made important by their work while others are made untouchable by theirs, and boy do most of us get it backwards on which is which” WHEW

EXACTLY as trans people have been warning for at least 15 years. If they impose a policy of forced birthing in the UK, every “gender-critical” transphobe will be to blame.

And the shirts say “This is not a jersey” on the back:

#FigureSkating have been watching some of @rockerskating.com's 2019 Worlds replays, and I think I can explain why I hate the overhead camera: It destroys artistic intent. These programs are not created to be watched from that angle. would you photograph an oil painting from a weird side angle??

idk who said it first, but the desire for authenticity is fundamentally just the desire to be confronted by a stereotype

i also have very little to add to this other than if you fell for this extremely artificial panic, fucking shame on you, and it got you absolutely nothing and nowhere and now your life is worse too.
