It's just fascism all the way down in our country's institutions

Happy FIFTIETH International Whores’ Day from me, merely a national whore

happy Pride, never stop fighting

"C,mon bro. Please. Just 580 more cops bro. 580 more cops and it'll be perfect. 34,749 cops in New York City is not enough cops bro. We are so close. We can't stop now. Look at the pictures bro. Look at them. That's not enough cops. We only need to add 580 more and it would be enough. Please bro."

I just wanna feel everything

happy pride, everyone

inflation driving the cost of gender to absolutely ruinous levels

You can still do this! Fascism will never take this from us!!!!

“Your photos don’t do you justice” Yeah, dummy, that’s why you’re supposed to come see me in person

Repulsive on a basic human level and also a chilling hint that they don’t intend to win another election, because small business owners who pay the low wages these policies subsidize are not gonna like it when their workers quit to stay home with their kids.

dear god just saw how an it looks when someone's hit with the account wide adult content warning and it's fucking MISERABLE blurred icon, blurred banner, every single post is hidden, even text posts, and posts that have images require you to hit unhide TWICE for the text and image, fucking nightmare

That our electorate considers this a similar kind of disqualifying to having a Nazi tattoo and posting rape apologia is exactly how we wound up with a candidate who has a Nazi tattoo and posts rape apologia

Most degrading part about being alive today is there’s no longer an option to just work some shitty part-time retail job and have 4 roommates and spend the rest of your time fucking and making art

Anti-porn, anti-sex worker, and anti-sex censorship directly corresponds to a tilt downward into a more ideologically conservative and oppressive society. Regardless of your personal comfort with nsfw content on the internet, it's absolutely critical to support it right now.

someone should make an anime about this

I wrote my Dominatrix Manifesto first and foremost for other dominatrixes but also, secondarily, for other laid-off researchers. The revolution needs you, babes! Let’s fucking go: www.workinggirlspress.com/store/p/mo78...

I appreciate how well this website captures the only remaining moods: offputtingly horny or a quantum superposition of two-to-three stages of grief.

.......Sorry, what's been happening for the last 16 months, exactly?

It’s really been something watching people get radicalized against all cops in the anti-ICE neighborhood Signal chats. Inevitable, really!

Idly watching the men fight each other in the street while me and the girls sit and chat on the porch outside the house where none of them live timesofindia.indiatimes.com/life-style/h...

We should all get a 20% discount on rent to reflect this change, and I’m 80% sure that would reverse it

We dont do it for the money.

Been a while since I had a good “overheard in New York,” but the guy at the bus stop was not wrong just now when he explained to his friend that “Everyone in this city wants to fuck Mamdani, especially the white people”

You simply can’t make me engage in any Euphoria discourse. I’m sitting this one out.

Don’t get mad at me, but I think this is easily the funniest thing he’s done

On Redistribution of Wealth: When you give money to a sex worker, often that money is used to fund safety & resources for other workers, for vulnerable family & community members, for care practices & rituals that prioritize those who cannot hustle. We are a capstone species of the care economy.

days into a hunger and labor strike of hundreds detained in GEO Group-run Delaney Hall, people inside report beatings, rotten food, crumbling facilities, and denied medical care. protesters and organizers outside are confronting ICE in the Newark street. talked to a few about it: @us.theguardian.com

Not my own therapist hitting me with Yalom and the search for meaning in a meaningless world 😭

I thought that, as a chronically ill anarchist, I was already as sympathetic to Luigi as possible, but since I lost my career and started doing clinical social work, relying on these insurance companies for my income as well as my healthcare… bro, I am going to break him out myself.

It used to be my job to research this, and it was tantamount to heresy to point out the major reason why so many of the people in our studies were underemployed was because there werent nearly enough living wage jobs— not just in their neighborhoods or at their education levels but period.

Why can no one in New York put a normal amount of cream cheese on a bagel?

Yeah I'm into BDSM Binding Damsels to Train'S Mtracks

Paging Susan Sontag

Currently contemplating how many people are in an abusive relationship with their employer. Probably a majority the world over.

Thousands of former HHS employees who used to work on solving disease and poverty are permanently unemployed now, just as a reminder

The right-wing does not have “less infighting” and they certainly do not have “more fun.” What they have is more funding.

They’re calling it “the least remembered Queensrÿche album”

It’s so cute when men try to waste my time. You thought I had time to waste? I’m like the opposite of Charlie Brown over here: Ive simply got too many hoes. *You* are supposed to impress *me*!

"I don't care how weird you've been feeing lately, your lab values are totally normal" but for econonics

Letting anyone extract surplus value from my wage labor is always going to feel more degrading than working for myself in the adult industry, but unfortunately, health insurance

Nothing but respect for *my* president, here in the beautiful country of New York City

For the last two decades, democracy has been in retreat. Autocracies now outnumber the world’s democracies, and countries that had made impressive democratic strides have been purposefully undoing those gains. muse.jhu.edu/pub/1/a...

The profit motive just being absolutely destroyed out here every day

I can't believe we're a quarter of a way into this century and "woman looking gorgeous in make-up/ perfectly normal without make-up but somehow it's a gotcha" is still a popular genre of post. Who is this for? 23-year-old incels? Teenage girls, to try to manipulate them? What are we doing???

What a quick 6 years. America is back to its explicit celebration of ethnic cleansing but for a moment George Floyd’s life let us see a different possibility. Black Lives Matter today and every day. May he rest in peace.

I know comrades on the ground, and it sounds like the situation is fucking dire, but they have in fact disrupted and delayed detainee transfers. Direct action, as usual, is the answer.

If this is true, we really live in the stupidest possible timeline

when I was doing ketamine therapy for depression I had one session where I was dreaming/hallucinating about Judith Butler rallying an army of Shiba Inus to go to war in Brooklyn and whenever I see the phrase “butlerian jihad” I assume that’s what it means

Parenting is a set of skills you have to learn. It comes as naturally to people as sex does— most can intuit the very basic mechanics but are struggling so bad with rest of it, they don’t even recognize they’re ruining their relationship and maybe giving their loved one a chronic illness.
