fujimoto yuri crumbs when we get them are always wonderful but ive registered him as more fujoshi aligned. his subject focus for his longer work has often sort of been about grappling with the experience of the effects of both "failure-modes" of masculinity & the misogyny of the family+state

Rowling and Liddle are both repugnant, hate-driven arseholes, and this stuff is saying that believing they are is some kind of wild extremist insanity that must be expunged. How long do we think these miniature Canutes can send back the incoming tide, do we think?

It's hard to get your head around this stuff unless you just stop respecting British journalism as an entire profession. Because, yes, they are in fact out here saying that being a member of the club is only criteria for whether your voice ought to be listened to or not.

“When American organisations with annual budgets in the hundreds of millions fund UK litigation, there are legitimate questions about whether this serves British democratic interests” cc @goodlawproject.org @goodlawproject.bsky.social

Who's Funding the War on Trans Inclusion? “The stated goal of strategic litigation is rarely to win every case. It’s to make the target behaviour—in this case, implementing trans-inclusive policies—expensive, risky, and exhausting”

Until the end of the government shutdown, our campaign will be donating $2,500 a month to a food pantry in the Ninth District. And to my fellow candidates, I challenge you to do the same:

yuri about a merchant republic with a meritocratic-electoral dual-consul system for economics and political intrigue. one woman represents the landed nobles and the other woman represents the urban merchants and they are constantly plotting against each other. a third is a radical commoner firebrand

Fascinating investigation by National News: A long-time employee of the UK’s embassy in Tel Aviv owns property in a settlement considered illegal under international law in the occupied West Bank that was built by an organisation now sanctioned by the British government.

The fundamental problem of spellblade characters in all fantasy media, games or otherwise, is the conflict between "this fucks tremendously" and "there's no practical reason to do this if there are balanced caster/fighter mechanics"

every time you think the new WaPo editorial board can't embarrass itself any more, they manage to find a way. Left: 'Texas gerrymandering is no big deal!', from August. Right: 'Maryland gerrymandering is an affront to Western civilization!', from today.

Transfem lifehack: Befriend people who consistently stand up for trans women (note: This does not automatically include all trans women)

Panera’s moderately caffeinated lemonade was loosely associated with 2 deaths before it was taken off market. This article alone has 4 examples of ChatGPT encouraging young people to commit suicide, and OpenAI’s own public stats estimate over a million users discuss suicide with ChatGPT each week.

OVER A MILLION USERS DISCUSS SUICIDE WITH CHATGPT EVERY *WEEK* what the fuck are we DOING here

Given its reach, the NYT is arguably now one of the biggest drivers of far right politics. With views like these normalised as respectable, you don’t need a Nick Fuentes.

thanks women for destroying the west free hummus and tabbouleh on me to every woman who lives rent free in David French‘s mind - or what’s left of it

And specifically to counter the Thurgood Marshall adage "Do what you think is right and let the law catch up"

Please read this letter to the Telegraph editor from @tactt.bsky.social about what looks like UKCP supporting conversion therapy (ie psychological torture) targeting children.

They’re not going to make noise about it, because they’ve been part of stoking the trans panic to distract from their predation on children.

The elite political press gave huge coverage recently to a “survey” produced by a political PAC, Welcome, that was effectively a push poll designed to produce the results it wanted. The supposed data was 6-12 months old and drawn from questions written by the PAC’s political staff, not professionals

I am older than gender markers on passports! How do you regulate gender? By making it a form of government ID. It has nothing to do with state security, only regulation

People like to say we're a tiny % of the population, but a) elections in the US often hinge on less than 5% of the vote & b) there are many cis people who prioritize support for trans people. We won't go back. We belong in this world. It might take a while, but posterity will validate our resolve.

I hope every person in this audience who boo'd the guy who served Sam Altman a subpoena gets looked at with nothing but shame and disappointment by all of their family, for the rest of their days.

“However, when candidates inoculate early and respond directly, they recover those points and sometimes gain additional margin by demonstrating their values and strength,” the memo continued.

I do slightly think that what is happening in Chicago could be the beginnings of a non-violent civil disobedience movement that goes way beyond just like, No Kings protests, and could grow quite a lot

This has not gotten much attention, but it should. Virginia under Youngkin returned to an insanely harsh system where people convicted of any felony lose their voting rights FOR LIFE. Dems' win this week mean they'll get to advance a constitutional amendment to end lifetime disenfranchisement.

Speaker Johnson is officially keeping the House in recess again next week. This will be the eighth consecutive week the House has been out of session. The chamber hasn't met since Sept. 19. Adelita Grijalva, who was elected on Sept. 23, has not been sworn in.

I feel like people on Bluesky who have convinced themselves that the institutional Left in the United States is pro Trump and falling over backwards to credit Trump should have to reckon with the fact that the only Palestinian in Congress, and a DSA member, says (rightly) that the ceasefire is fake.

So Elise Stefanik is running for NY governor. She abandoned every principle she claimed to have in exchange for a seat on the Trump train. Here’s a thread about Stefanik, who is a serial liar, an ally of a Hitler admirer, and an opponent of sharing baby formula with migrant infants. 🧵 1/10

If you're wondering why capital keeps burning cash on such a worthless asset it's because its promised them the ability to fire their entire workforce and even though it can't deliver it yet the allure is too strong to stop now

Natalism and demographic anxieties lie at the core of most modern right wing panics---immigration, replacement conspiracies, transphobic mania, 'male loneliness', women's independence, and so on. Quite glad to see this eugenical ruling-class fixation being highlighted 👀
