oh !

the etymology of our word "travesty" comes from the late Italian medieval "travesti" which was used to label "men" who dressed like women. They've been coming for us for centuries. It didn't start recently, it didn't start with the Nazis. It's been centuries.

happy dissociative identity awareness day (march 5th)!! here's a little comic about P-DID and my experiences with it. please open the images in full, as they're very cropped on the preview here! #art #furry #did #pdid #dissociativesystem #plurality

“At the same time we have to protect what we’ve got” Like… I’m glad they’re finally saying it. It’s an active decision to not direct this. It’s a capitulation. How can Mamdani be mad at NYU if his hospital system is making the same decision?

Listened to this at 6 minutes in or so. It’s not directly stated, but it appears the reason that Mamdani has not directed H+H to absorb trans patients is out of fear of the federal government. “It’s part of the game we have to play with the federal government .” It’s the EXACT logic NYU is using.

Candy, also chiming in. Kai, the alt who kicked this conversation off, exhibits what's called an uncertain or insecure attachment style. This tracks with the upbringing we had and the kinds of trauma associated with #DID in one of the more popular hypothetical models.

Clinton called for Obama to be assassinated on the 2008 campaign trail.

Lisa here. Pookie, you are one of us. Always have been, always will be. There's a seat at the table, waiting for you. Copilot with either me or S some time soon. We want to have a breakthrough with you.

"The Kid" is here. #DID thread. I'm ambivalent about being seen in the mood that I'm in, but the others seem to have done some good by documenting their thoughts here. Maybe one of them will find it useful. Maybe you will. I don't know.

We hate kids. Like SO MUCH. We vote for the guns. We vote for the bombs. We protect the rapists. We have LEOs physically restraining parents from trying to save their children in Uvalde. We just blew up a school in Iran. We love Jeffrey Epstein and his friends. They run the country.

US and Israeli missiles have just hit a 4th school in Tehran. This is an intentional massacre of children

China is preparing to do to us what Biden did to Russia when they attacked Ukraine.

This thread is not about whether Platner is a Nazi. It’s about how he lies like a toddler when he’s cornered. And that’s enough. He’s not electable, and Susan Collins knows it. You can too, if you can read this thread, or this 18-page document. 2/

Let’s talk about Graham Platner’s Big Lie, finally. In 2009, at the height of the Gulf War, the Marines barred him from active duty. Platner claims it was his forearm tattoos. But his one forbidden tattoo was the Nazi symbol on his chest. He knew - and he left the Marines rather than give it up. 1/

I think they might have better luck spending two thousand dollars holding a press conference where they detail who made the key decisions to collaborate with the Trump administration, how and when they were fired, and explaining what would stop that from happening again.

I wonder what the kid who invented the "you fool, this isn't even my final form" meme over a decade ago is doing now. I wonder how their transition's going. I hope they're well. The mantra they gave me was pure power.

My current enemies are not in Iran, they’re in the Epstein Files.

There was MUCH less evidence for antisemitism from Mamdani than there is from Platner, but the fact that some Jews had concerns led Mamdani to do lots of Jewish outrage, meet with Jews, go to synagogues, and such. Platner is notably not doing that.

This is the morning guy, chiming in to take part in after action review. Memory transfer when we switch is imperfect. We've talked about journaling to assist with our internal communication, and I'm glad to see that one of the girls had the presence of mind to do that here so that I could catch up

So did Trump fire Noem out of jealous possessiveness when he found out about her sex plane? Because that's the rumor I'll be spreading

I feel like this has held up pretty well in the years since I wrote it. www.duffelblog.com/trump-warns-...

Saw a quote saying I'm wrong to frame the vote this way because the resolution doesn't literally say 'we agree with Trump.' But for context, one reason Trump gave for attacking Iran was its missile program. And from the end of the resolution:

#DID thread. So the two personalities who were butting heads the last time I posted on the topic have been copiloting for the last hour or so, and it's shaping up to be a good team-building experience. TW: discussion of death follows. It's nothing dark or unsafe to us, just be advised.

It is so damning of US news media that so many outlets refuse to just straight up say that Senator Tim Sheehy assaulted an activist. He did not "help" Capitol police. They did not need his help. He wanted to assault the guy and did. He should resign.

Trump and Hegseth are the weak men who cause hard times, they’re just too blinded to know it.

😡😡😡😡

the LLMs can be defeated by POETRY, its only fair the ai can be defeated by ART

Sickening in a dozen different ways. Tim Sheehy is a dozen different kinds of piece of shit.

I know that the people who need to read this aren’t here, but here goes: Rules of engagement aren’t for the enemy. They’re for you. They’re for your soldiers when they’re captured or wounded. They’re for your civilians when they’re in range of the enemy. They’re for your allies, to reassure.

I am Graham Platner's age. I too was in the post 9/11 military. I also grew up in a small town in the Northeast US. I am also a college dropout with PTSD. And I am telling you: anyone from my demographic who had a Nazi tattoo for 15 years is either a Nazi or too dumb to be an effective US senator.

jesse singal suggesting that someone else has a professional stake in this is wild since it's the only story he's written in a decade

I have nothing helpful to say, I just feel incredibly sad for 90 million Iranians now living in fear

Chaser alert! Creep followed me and sneezed his way into my DMs to "ask" me to be his sugar baby. His follow list is a bunch of trans women. Block his ass, everyone. Let's freeze this creep out.

If hundreds of dead Iranian children aren't enough for you to oppose Trump's illegal war, consider this: For the same $210 billion price tag, we could end homelessness in the US permanently and still have enough money left over to feed every child in the United States for the next five years.

Both of much of the far-right and much of the far-left want you to turn on the Jewish community in this moment because of Netanyahu's disgusting actions. Don't give them what they want. These people suck and should be ignored. Focus on the illegality of this war and demand Congress put a stop to it.

In fact, if it's any consolation: I'm transgender and will likely die in a camp regardless of whether the next president is Vance or Newsom; I'm in my fifties, and you would likely have outlived me anyways; and the winter I spent living on the streets after I got back set temperature records. 3/3

As the days go on and the rhetoric heats up, some people I'm mutuals with are going to catch blocks if they don't beat me to it. Wanted to put it out there that the hard feelings aren't mutual. 2/3

My time on Twitter taught me that one of the fun things about being both a veteran and a leftist is that, every time the president fucks up badly enough, my timeline is guaranteed to fill up with people who are mad that I made it back alive. 1/3

Especially now, joy is just as important as survival. The world might be cruel and chaotic, but that doesn’t mean you should only exist in a state of struggle. You deserve laughter, comfort, adventure and love. Whenever you can, seek out things that make you happy, no matter how small.
