Ok everyone... they're gone!!! Break out the sinner shit, we're goin' to TOWN!!! Wooohooooooo!!!!!

"Maybe we should... I dunno... like.. like squeeze a baby. Many people are saying a lot of liquid comes... comes out of one. I never... you can't tell. Who wants to touch one, am I right? Except Ivanka... boy that one... very... very touchable! Man I sure wanna touch that one!" Eric though. Ach!"

When I spoke out against her response to whether trans prisoners were entitled to basic human rights with: "We'll follow the law", I was told that somehow equated to "trans allyship". This following news that Florida had ALREADY implemented trans human rights violations under color of "law".

WTF yourself. Take them, you officious fuck. YOU made them. It's YOUR fucking mess, youdammit. Own your shit. Fix your shit.

We should be treating the term "biological sex" in print the same way you'd treat other slurs... with by the 1st letter followed by *s. Or simply: "B.S.".

The only thing stronger than certain neck bones has been my willpower in hitting delete on many of the things I, as someone with a satirical streak of very dark humor, have been writing and not sending to you all in the last week and a half. But there are limits, people. LIMITS! Fucking limits.

Hello my fellow boiling frogs. Tolerance ever being ratcheted brutally upward against our will and terribly, with our full knowledge of the process. As if the frog in the metaphor is also, notepad grasped in slowly peeling hands, describing the process of disintegration. One obscenity at a time.

I think they're learning that whole "empty land red states =/= high pop blues states" thing that's fucked up elections. "Sweetie, cornfields don't watch t.v."

Being nice to trans people really did turn out to be a load bearing part of liberal democracy ey

Palette cleanser:

I find that philosophy that you're ascribing to trans people in "Humanism". Reason, compassion, responsibility, agency. The ability of human beings to examine the world as it is, find solutions bound in compassion, and take agency over one's fate and effect on the world.

I wish I could tell you what the music of this man and that band, The Moody Blues, has meant to me over the years, and the things it's helped get me through. If I have 1 word for it, it is "Compassion". Albums of it. Dorky Beato, graceful Justin, wonderful interview :) youtu.be/mTG1XZ1zyLo?...

Minorities are afraid the right wing will kill them. The right wing are afraid you'll laugh at them.

No. He's just earning a paycheck from the highest bidders, who are right wing billionaires and tech bro bigots.

We can treat the dysphoria. And we do, and those treatments work. But fuck-all we can do about cis people and society, it seems.

Well, I'll tell you why... Because MOST of the stress experienced by trans people is NOT the dysphoria. It is the way society... specfically people like this... treats trans people. To do what you suggest would simply consist of them saying: "Yes, we're the problem. Not trans people. Us."

They just claimed that saying "I have a right to exist" is a terrorist threat. People... wake the fuck up.

Adolescence on Netflix is a masterpiece. Intense, and heavy, but brilliant. I’m blown away.

Doing some work on the opening to my live show and I need your help / voice ! If interested, comment a video of yourself saying, “I’m Emily A.F., and this is Rockstar & Elise” to be involved. (only the audio will be used.) #musiciansky #IndiePop #LiveShow Please RS for visibility!

Well, he didn't try a trans joke. So that's... good. A trans writer on staff could write one, maybe. None of the late night shows seem to have even one though, because of course there are no funny trans people. So don't do that. Awkward at best. Better to be safe. Ya take your wins where ya can.

Nailed it. Snowflakes.

This is extremely dangerous to our democracy.

So NYT, if they're "bringing the media to heel", in your formulation the media are dogs. Loyal obedient puppies. And you're "the media"... which is why that formulation makes sense to you. The "Grey Lady" is just a little bitch.

If you've been reading me, you may have noticed I refer to myself as a Humanist. Vengeance is a human thing, and understandable. But it is not in our better natures. It is among our worst. This is what happens when vengeance overtakes reason and humanity: www.youtube.com/shorts/DCQma...

What rough beast this fucking time? You! Your goddam hour comes round tomorrow. TOMORROW! Slouch the fuck back in your motherfucking hole!

I've thought this didn't need saying, as it is basic human psychology, but I lit this lightbulb in someone's head I wouldn't have thought so... well... dim... on the subject... and so here we are...

You can say govt approved anything. Of course, there's that whole "moving goalposts" problem... but hey... "I'm just a comedian! They're just jokes!" Friend, if comedians were just comedians and it didn't mean anything, the govt wouldn't be worried about anyone's jokes.

@emilystjams.bsky.social book "Woodworking" is terrific :) Not exactly my experience, but close enough I had to take some breaks getting through it. Trans people are not a monolith. Our experiences differ in many ways, but some of them are common enough, and this book, with its internal dialogues..

This essay is a tour de force. To trans people, it reads as a grim reminder of the litany of indignities and travesties visited upon us by the UK government. To cis people, I hope, it is a bracing and sobering wake up call to how illiberal the UK and Labour have become. 1/ One additional thought:

In a nation of laws, one would expect censorship of this type, brazenly carried out by the administration through threats to the broadcaster, to go, through an emergency-expedited proceed, immediately to the supreme court, which would find a 1st amendment violation, restricting free speech by govt.

A fucking billionaire, ensconced in a fricking castle, with guards and staff and god knows what, is saying she was "forced"....forced... by the words of a tiny oppressed minority no member of whom she's ever been near in her life.. To... what... exactly, Joanne? What was it you were "forced" to do?

"Is it sheer happenstance that after more than a decade of the President deliberately provoking millions of individuals, that as many as SEVERAL of them have said mean things in response? I say conspiracy! Conspiracy sir, and I do not shrink from it!"
