oh cool, i love it when we get the worst case scenario

everything is increasingly intolerable all the time.

i do not trust anyone who doesn't affirm trans rights unprompted

I see a lot of people I respect fundraising for trans orgs and I say this with full love for them and knowledge of how much work goes into organization but like. I feel like I should mention that I believe it’s time to just give trans people money so they can flee these red states trying to kill ‘em

It really is either you support trans rights or you support Hitler 2.0

The second you leave this country for even a few days, you realize the place you call home is decaying at an almost exponential pace. The realization that you don't have to live like this is stark, and that nobody in power is taking tangible actions to fix it in your lifetime is even starker.

every trans girl is fighting a secret fight that you can solve by giving her 20 thousand dollars

there are so many good people in Kansas. I hate how fucked up the fascists have made their state

Love to all the trans folk in Kansas. You don't fucking deserve this bullshit.

1. This number is impossible to evaluate because they do not give the margin of error. It might be very large. 2. I actually think, just based on what I see in Kansas around myself, is that it might be *under*stating the actual numbers.

hello gen x-ers and music video enthusiasts of bsky: you should know i've published the first substantial update to the 120 minutes archive in years... 50+ recently unearthed playlists from 1987-2000 (lots of '90s) and 100+ corrections. it's all there waiting for you. 120minutes.org

You don't have to stop posting but you do have to stop posting THERE. It is a uniquely, fundamentally detrimental website to you as a person. It incentivizes racism, violence and — the worst crime of all — vagueposting. You are living in a permanent teaser ad for the 11 o'clock news.

everyone loved the tech industry's free music and friendship machines of 20-30 years ago. it's unclear what could be causing people to feel the opposite about the industry's new racism and insanity machine

so much of the discourse about depictions of trans women could be sidestepped if u ppl just considered us fucking women lol

Anyway. I just think we deserve to live free of an oligarchy who treat society as a final boss they must defeat on their way to securing their ultimate prize.

How do I devote my life to the cause of Women

Alysa Liu: "THAT'S WHAT I'M FUCKING TALKING ABOUT" 🗣️

X is absolutely cooking the brains of the entire political class that remains on there. The ones who think they're immune are probably the most affected.

its capitalism that's corrupting the computer, making it into something twisted and perverse. there is a better way

Sometimes I get a little upset when I live in a collapsing dystopia for many years

I wrote about something I've been thinking about for a long time. A kind of post-ironic collapse in our politics and culture where nihilism has become the lingua franca of the internet and beyond. It links Kirk, Clavicular, Epstein, memestock/coin stuff, mass shooters. I hope you'll read it.

you know, it still seems like it should be an even bigger issue that the president has been sending armed forces to kidnap and assault people in an ethnic cleansing campaign, with a specific geographic focus on regions that didn't vote for him in the last election

I choose to believe that she released this and immediately disappeared from public life, never to be heard from again.

america could be such a cool fucking place if we’d just let it be

That entire Halftime special was a celebration of community, love, music, diversity and Puerto Rico and very deliberate middle finger to colonization and white supremacy.

Bad Bunny “together we are America”

“The only thing more powerful than hate is love.” MAGA wanted you to boycott this.

Sabrina Carpenter being on The Muppet Show makes perfect sense. I think she’s basically a muppet to begin with. Like in the field of contemporary celebs she’s gotta be in like, the top ten of obvious muppets masquerading as people.

We gotta come up with a better system than “everything rests on whether these twelve billionnaires are nice”

Woke 2.0 back with a vengeance. You love to see it.

A reminder that Bad Bunny performs in front of the biggest audience on earth in seven days

me, emotionally writing an essay on the use of force by federal agents: ok but what if i packaged this in the most insane way possible www.theverge.com/policy/86857...

half of all tech news lately is some variation of "the computer company has discontinued their well known product, the computer"

The moderate position is unwinding the entire post-9/11 security state

you gotta celebrate them leaving. they can't win their fights. they can't win their war. the fascists's only hope is wanton and inchoate violence, bloodying enough noses & performing street executions on the hope people become too scared to show up and take the next hit and it still isn't working.

I have functionally lost any ambition I had at this point and would like people to leave me alone and let me do quality work in a corner somewhere until I'm ready to retire so every year that gets me closer to that is a win

im sorry but we just spent the last decade being told the biggest issues were pronouns in emails and a trans kid playing jv lacrosse if you said these things and got paid for it then you need to go away. literally if “woke mind virus” is something youve ever said unironically you need to go away

All the anti-war and anti-occupation protestors were right. All the far leftists were right. All the “woke scolds” and your friend who’s “too woke” were right. They were somehow even more right than they may have realized at the time. But really, it was always obvious they were right.

seeing conservatives admit alex pretti was disarmed and need to change their message to “well you know where you won’t get shot? at home” is just an impressive level of pathetic allegiance to their dictator

As federal agents stormed Minneapolis and residents banded together to protect their own, Charles Homan saw a dystopian future become reality. “The federal agents looked more like a platoon of soldiers navigating a hostile foreign capital than conventional law enforcement in an American city.”

this is how it’s going to have to be, and how major movements have always been

The first Minnesota murder, they refused to let a medical professional help the woman they shot. The second Minnesota murder, they simply shot the medical professional.

Also, may I say that I don’t agree with people saying ICE and CBP need “more training.” They’re doing exactly what this administration has trained them to—impose a reign of fear in blue cities. They don’t need more training. They need to be ripped up root and branch.

The Republican position now appears to be that you have a constitutional right to openly carry a gun in public, unless you do so while expressing a view that the government dislikes, in which case the secret police can shoot you to death on the spot.

Anti-ICE protesters fill the streets of downtown Minneapolis during an "ICE Out" rally on Jan. 23. 📷️ Alex Kormann/The Minnesota Star Tribune Continuing coverage: bit.ly/3ZsrBxQ

It’s -9 degrees. Downtown Minneapolis is packed for the anti-ICE rally and the crowd keeps growing

It's annoying that we already had so many existing problems to solve before these assholes created a bunch of new ones for no reason

It's remarkable how quickly the administration is polarizing me against certain kinds of posting. You really wanna look like that online?
