hey remember when I got shit on for years for trying to warn people that GamerGate was just Nazis and not just about harassing women and not just about some “consumer revolt”

Storm chasers? Man, people really will fetishize anything

Don’t get me wrong, I am into some disgusting perverted shit, but I still think long romantic kisses are one of the hottest thing ever.

Over the years I’ve tried so fucking hard to like Darkest Dungeon 2. I want to like it. The first is so special to me. But I just can’t like the second, this Was I think my seventh attempt and I still just can’t see the good in it.

I’m still thinking about UNBEATABLE. I might need to write something about it, but I already have so many WIPs 😓

This used to be a big deal

I need cuddles from a pretty lady

Every day Mamdani comes out and is like "hey guys, I turned off the orphan-crushing machine. Literally just had to flip a switch. Took less than 5 minutes." After decades of dem leadership pissing and moaning and fundraising about how complex an issue it is and how difficult the process is etc

I should not have to say this but if you are a legal observer your job is not to go snitch on any and all illegal things. Your job is SPECIFICALLY AND EXCLUSIVELY to record law enforcement brutality, illegality, and overreach. It is ABSOLUTELY NOT to snitch on protests you find too spicy.

my train to and from Chicago both got canceled. Fuck Amtrack so much. I am about to become The Bad One On The Bus #Boston’sFavoriteSon

they hate us because trans women illuminate the duality of femininity as both discipline and disruption

The project to distance Epstein’s associates and collaborators from his abuse, a project which has been taken on by the likes of Ezra Klein and people at the elite institutions that enabled Epstein, is a project to prevent fully understanding why abusers get away with it and how they can be stopped

I need people to understand that it’s not just Epstein, it’s the entire rape culture that existed before and after him at every socioeconomic level. That’s why Epstein, who I’ve never thought was particularly smart or interesting, was able to pull this all off—he recognized how abuse functions

The public library is an essential component of a 21st-century left political project as an example of both what is already available to us and what can be improved upon in the future. The library is a public good, and it is free as a public service. I want more people to make the connections.

"The world isn’t ending. A world is ending. Our job is to midwife the next one."

You ever partake of the most delicious, satisfying meal, the kind where you sit back at the end and for awhile just feel like "MMMM, that was so good I will never need to eat again"? That's what it felt like to finish UNBEATABLE today, but for the soul.

yup, people needed to take GamerGate WAY more seriously.

what if I told you that child abuse and unthinking deference to the patriarch ARE "family values"

Fatphobia is rooted in dehumanization, ableism, and eugenics But y'all *Really* don't want to have that conversation.

Frostys Fausting day 1 is done. I made it out of pools! Hoping to go further tomorrow!

Are any of you going to follow me to apex, or am I making this trek alone.

Dems treated both viruses, covid and fascism, the exact same way. youtube.com/shorts/U9DHa...

Claire Magica Riot being such a useless lesbian is so fun. I love the exasperation of the band every time it happens.

Just a reminder, the greatest living American historian filmmaker, Ken Burns, released a 720 min exploration of every facet of the American revolution using zero generative AI and paying for all of its assets instead of cobbling it from stolen data, then he gave it away for free on PBS this year.

I finished a reread of Magica Riot on the bus to Chicago (because of course my train got cancelled.) It’s still phenomenal, packed to the brim with joy and heart. Exactly the thing i need in dark times to keep me going. Now i will finally read Full Bloom. Expect updates as i read.

Opening Audacity and not immediately getting barraged by it begging me to use GenAI is so god damn refreshing. Let me just use the tools that wor!

my only notes to people under 30: your 30s aren't for ditching fandom, they're for re-evaluating all the "cringe" stuff you liked as a teenager through the lens of someone who can appreciate it fully, going, "that owned, actually," and becoming even more unhinged about it. please look forward to it.

Sesame Street is now offering tips for parents on post-trauma comfort because the federal government is physically and mentally abusing our country's children.

Kingdom Hearts ass dialogue (complementary <3) #UNBEATABLE

God I need my friends to play UNBEATABLE because I NEED to talk with someone about it with

I don't keep doomers in my feed but since apparently some folks do: "celebrate each and every win, loudly" is Organizing 101

Now that TikTok has changed ownership in the U.S., it's as good a time as ever to again say how much I truly hate algospeak euphemisms like "unalived" and whatnot. I wish people would knock that off.

The people of Minnesota did that. Not Schumer and Jeffries, not Walz and Frey, not the standard-bearers of decorum. The People.

I just finished #UNBEATABLE I’ve been crying for about 40 minutes, so loud I’m worried I might wake others In the house. Very few things have hit me so hard that I immediately feel like it’s changed my life. UNBEATABLE is one of them. Please, play UNBEATABLE!

There’s a lot of incongruities between subtitles and what is said in Darkest Dungeon and I’m surprised that they haven’t been fixed over the years.

a thing that legitimately keeps me up at night crying is the fear one of my trans friends will be hurt and I’ll be powerless to stop it. I still haven’t found a good way to cope with that.

Why can’t we be nicer to the people who spent years advocating for a genocide of your people, destroyed your civil rights, and making up lies to stoke hatred at you who are now very sowwy🥺

I drew Scarleteeth from #cassettebeasts today. I completely did not notice that the cloth it wears forms its arms until looking at the sprite animations while drawing this, I just assumed it had no upper limbs the whole time...

Slept till 1pm today. Body still readjusting to the meds. I’m so tired and achey

ICE killing #AlexPretti should remind you of police killing #PhilandoCastille. Both men had concealed weapon permits, did not draw their guns, & were killed in Minn. These homicides are the price of unaccountable policing. These deaths are variations on the same fatal theme.

He was doing what many have been saying white men should be doing. He went outside to observe, he documented, he put his body on the line to protect another person and for this he was murdered by the gatekeepers of the fascist regime.

I’m sorry but as someone who has a book and a PhD on this exact thing, this is just straight up not true. The majority of Nazis discovered living abroad (particularly in the US, Australia, and UK) faced almost no legal consequences beyond the occasional loss of citizenship.
