The reason every elite institution in the country is propping up pampered millionaire Ezra Klein is that his overarching response to the country’s plunge into tyranny is “Don’t fight the fascists, become a little more like them.”

Wow, the University of Washington's Psych 201 class does *not* play go fuckin Huskies Nazi UW students fuck off

I saw Goody Proctor engraving bullets at the devil's sacrament.

Engraving two bullets with "this bullet only lies" and "this bullet only tells the truth" to really stump the FBI

I know antifa isn't a real organization because I don't get 40 texts a week from them asking for donations.

joining the manosphere and grifting off the idea that no man should have nipples

this is the solution to the male loneliness epidemic I am 100% serious

trans people just want to be able to live their lives and cis people are like "due to this we need to do mandatory genital inspections to children playing sports". im sorry but the problem is cis people

Secret Illustration for the 1.5 revision of my Tokusatsu mini-zine!

A grim reminder: these people will never be satisfied. There’s no point at which they will say “we’ve won, let’s enjoy life.” They will always be looking for someone else to punish, to revile, to dehumanize. They’re empty without that.

What the Debate Me bros have done is found a way to filibuster the self-evident humanity of a person or group by making it an endless topic of debate. As Toni said: "None of this is necessary. There will always be one more thing." It's not my job to prove my equality to those who think me inferior

DC comics planting their flag on the moral high ground on the side of a white nationalist, transphobe while dutifully carrying on his rotten work in the firing of Gretchen Felker-Martin. The characters of the DC universe would find this despicable.

Hello everyone. You may know Gretchen Felker-Martin has once again been suspended from bc they do that whenever some chud complains. Her brand-new ongoing DC series was also cancelled for the same reason. It’s stupid fascist bullshit as usual. Gretchen’s work rules. Consider supporting her here:

It’s an absolute shame that DC fired Gretchen Felker- Martin for exercising free speech and then @bsky.app suspended her account. Every writer here should be decrying this because we have to stand up for each other! This is ridiculous.

don’t forget to leave out a cup of jet fuel and a plate of steel beams for george bush tonight <3

Dude suggested someone bail the Pelosi attacker out of jail like 2 seconds after the hammer blows stopped falling on the guy's head. He's published saying gun deaths are a fair cost for a healthy second amendment. He worked tirelessly to convince me not to care about this. I will honor his work.

The American right wing once It Happens

Old Soviet joke for today: A man walks into a newsstand every day, looks around, and leaves. After a long time of this, the owner says “Can I help you find something?” “I’m looking for the obituaries.” “The obituaries are in the back of the newspaper, comrade.” “Not the one I’m looking for.”

my father-in-law is a “I know a guy” Guy. sadly all the old Guys are aging out of the Guy Economy. Guys are fundamentally incompatible with Hustle Culture because it’s not about “winning” a deal, it’s about collecting favors and goodwill in a mutually-beneficial cycle. protect your local Guy Economy

damn I can't believe that shunning reading, obsessing over corporate fandom, being super racist to Chinese people, and bullying anyone with anything interesting to say failed to nurture a thriving sci-fi literary genre

Commodified fantasy takes no risks: it invents nothing, but imitates and trivializes. It proceeds by depriving the old stories of their intellectual and ethical complexity, turning their truth-telling to sentimental platitude.

Raylan: 'Member that fella took off into the woods a couple years back? Long-haired, shower-shy? Hippie-like I guess you could say, 'cept armed to the teeth. Boyd: Hwhy Raylan Givens I believe you're referring to Aragorn, son of Arathorn; a man to whom you owe your allegiance.

Their memorials are history. Ours are political. Because as always, there are two sexualities - straight, and political. Two genders - male, and political. Two religions - Christian, and political. Two races - white, and political.

It’s really exciting how difficult it’s been this last week to keep our bookshelves stocked with new books. This city is pecking us clean and it rules.

Reposting my thoughts from when the book was announced

It’s nine o’clock on a Saturday The unholy thing shambles in He’s too big for the chair sitting next to me And he makes an unbearable din Sing us a song, you’re the piano man Your skin is a wooden facade You’ve brass pedals for hands And your hair’s copper strands Give unbearable insult to god

There's almost no way this isn't a targeted, bad-faith, dishonest attack. @bsky.app please fix this.

hey @bsky.app why was @scumbelievable.bsky.social suspended? considering the timing (she just put a new book out) it feels like someone is weaponizing your safety features in a targeted manner

hey @bsky.app fix this

So wild to randomly see one of my favorite writers @haileypiperfights.bsky.social reposting an old tweet from my fiancé. The best kind of odd.

seen in newark, new jersey 🔥

Being right wing is so hard bc you’re not allowed to acknowledge any actual phenomena that shape the world, so when you try to describe something you just end up sounding like if a person speaking in tongues worshipped the internet instead of god

one of the greatest television scenes ever aired, and a very deep personal favorite

the problem with letting democrats backslide their support of trans rights whether it be trans in sports or using bathrooms is we’ve seen “compromise” in the UK labor party. they gave into “reasonable” TERF demands and it destroyed the labor party and all rights for trans people

the US profoundly needs a children's rights movement. children are not property... they deserve opportunity and learning and autonomy and security.... and our country just does not acknowledge this

it turns out leftists were right about israel. they’re probably still wrong about everything else though

Damn, she wasn't lying, that petard can *hoist*

Just gave. Now is a critical time. Dollars to innocent lives is seldom so direct.

Alan Cumming on bathroom bills: "Why on earth would a rapist go through the bother of pretending to be trans in a country that treats rapists better than trans people."

This is where I post from.

A recent portrait of the old welsh bard, Arthur Machen. His writing and ideas have impacted my life like few others (which is to say I’ll probably be doing more portraits of him)

The boomers' eternal grip on US politics has warped people's sense of age and politics but Clinton was two years younger than Mamdani when he got elected as governor or Arkansas. Relatively young people used to get elected to this level of office all the time!

sorry i don’t think Zohran’s win indicates how state or national races will go. Zohran campaigned against unaffordable basic needs and an old pervert. problems that are unique to new york city and no where else in the country

Seven years ago, I was slowly coming out (+up, from depression), and was writing again for the first time in years. Now I have over 120 stories in the world, seeing releases of my 15th and 16th books, and I know and have met to so many wonderful horror folk. Love to you 💜🌈 and make horror gay AF!

one of the things that's so invigorating about Mamdani's win is how upset the right seems to be. it shouldn't matter to them what flavor of Democrat runs New York City, but they're unnerved because they know that his style of progressive populism has broad appeal.

BREAKING: codebreakers have finally solved the Zodiac’s final cypher. After years of studying and many (MANY) attempts, experts have agreed that the decoded message reflects Zodiac’s last will and testament. it reads: ANDREW CUOMO FOR NYC MAYOR 2025

AOC played ball and did everything Pelosi told her and was rewarded by being passed over for a 75-year-old who died four months later. There have now been four House votes this year where Dems lost by the margin of members who died in office. No one has more right to say this than her
