jamesons biggest problem is that he’s kind of a doofus

mayor sending a notes app apology for the rain

livs doing really exciting linguistic graphing

not to brag but i’m a bit of a morbid symptom

Always geographicize!

never historicize!

when i transitioned, i never thought i'd play baseball again. now we're in our fourth season of trans girl baseball here in new york, and—even though i say this all the time—it really did change my life! i wrote about tgirl baseball and what it means to us for @defector.com (link below!)

reading jameson is like running a marathon in a big circle

new lily fiction in Beach Reads from Active Chapter. pick it up if u get the chance! if not, it’ll be online soon enough

newspapers used to rock bro

"Feminist rhetoric has a distressing tendency to reappear in reactionary contexts" probably the best thing ever said by anyone ever imo

The ICE murder of Lorenzo Salgado Araujo deserves the same fury as Renee Good and Alex Pretti

OH LOOK IT"S ME ON LITHUB being a DORK like usual lithub.com/platos-sympo...

in many ways If You Give a Mouse a Cookie is not a reagan era lesson about the homeless, but instead a dialectical introduction to the theories presented in On the Jewish Question

the problem with so many academic books is they’re not very good

yanking the idea of videogames as an art form or venue of expression away from the delusional CEO class can't any longer be considered some kind of luxury or pie in the sky goal of indie developers - it's a necessity

do we think mr met is a female husband

showing liv angels in america because you gotta do something

why do people insist on publishing 'manifestos' 'without jargon' in academic publishers. Waste of paper, if it's a manifesto put it on tiktok. i want jargon!

where do we fall on the Abschaffung debate oomfies

when will they let a member of the transgender avant garde throw the first pitch at a new york metropolitans game

there’s a guy on reels walking from the bronx to san francisco and he is also our nations greatest philosopher

why is baseball woker than all other major (male) sports

people complaining about gay guys at t4tluvnrg fail to understand they're a keystone species. although it may feel like dolls are gazelles getting crowded out by wildebeest at the watering hole, they help ward off our natural predators (chasers, feeld/house of yes het couples, nyu undergrads)

Jenny von Westphalen trying to Phantom Thread Karl Marx's gay ass

Masayoshi Son is *so close* to Pierre Ménarding Das Kapital

My newsletter is at like ~930 subs since it launched and it would be great to get to 1,000 before the end of the month!!!! Every Saturday you'll get my favorite Texas stories and my takes on stuff that makes me laugh: www.chron.com/newsletters/...

"Rockhill is wrong not only because he misreads Adorno. He is wrong bc he turns to another inverted world: a world where critique becomes a ritual of exposure, history becomes conspiracy, hope of liberation is replaced by the pleasure of finding traitors." sallymju.substack.com/p/gabriel-ro...

say what you will (i say plenty) but it is pretty awesome to read the NYT talk about DSA like Tammany Hall and Zohran like he’s got damn Boss Tweed

i love living in a district with like .002% DSA or WFP presence

This is not a scientifically valid method of doing corpus linguistics and @esqueer.net you are undermining fundamentally the work other trans people with actual data skills have been doing in the space by publishing this nonsense. www.nytimes.lgbt?ref=thedissi...

No live woman can continue for long to exist sanely under conditions of absolute cunt; even fish are supposed, by some, to be busted.

not to sound 18 years old but i quite like the work of ms shirley jackson

There is not, as of yet, such a thing as transfeminism.

once again people on here willfully misunderstand every possible thing and few do the follow up

there is a massive gap between what passes for feminist discourse online vs the cutting edge feminist thinking happening right now so here's something really lovely that just dropped mediationsjournal.org/toc/volume-3...

"If the question is the purpose of trans literature, especially published by W.W. Norton or Bloomsbury, the answer is to sell books. And it seems to be failing at that purpose, seeing as they’re publishing less and less of it."

heartbreaking, french space alien has been humbled

the individual actions of the players and teams in the nba finals mattered little as ultimately they were acting out the forces of history. they are simply avatars.

THIS IS REVERSE 9/11!!!!!

yes! james dolan time. the man we all wanted to hear from

It's all fun and games until James Dolan is getting celebrated.

there was never any doubt

to me, my oomfies

Especially skeezy about this is that "critical fabulation" (h/t the great Saidiya Hartmann) is a real thing & a boon to those who research under-documented lives. So for LLM proponents to stolen-valor an easily (but wrongly equated) term is like stealing somebody's image & stripping the watermarks.
