DID YOU KNOW: Pride marches take inspiration from the 1963 March on Washington for Jobs and Freedom, which was organized by Bayard Rustin—who was himself gay!

Also worth noting that, at least in the U.S., none of that gained ANY traction until elite journalism made their major anti-trans pivot in 2021-2022. This effort was mostly going nowhere until then. www.advocate.com/politics/nat...

No, what happened was the religious right in the US, after losing on Obergefell v. Hodges, immediately changed tactics. They held huge conferences outlining their plans to roll back LGBT rights as whole by targeting trans people. They didn't skip a beat. We aren't to blame for our own oppression.

Been in the archive all week and this one resonates for me.

every time you see a headline that begins with “we have to,” replace the “we” with “you” and you’ll immediately understand the purpose of the piece and the power dynamics at play

So from what I understand about the TADC finale, having not seen it, is that they revealed that vriska is a trans woman?

With alt text. "We built the library. Someone else started charging admission." This is what I hear when someone says, "Don't get left behind." It's more of a Gold Rush than anything else. They mean if you don't make the move to (literally) take advantage of others' work first, someone else will.

Thanks to everyone using AI, everyone defending AI, everyone shrugging at AI use, everyone complaining about how "everyone is a Luddite now", everyone who doesn't give a shit about what AI is doing This is the future you've made for us. Fuck yourself

okay but for real if youre gonna reblog a bunch of anti ai sentiment then you should Also post some art. or reblog someone elses art. dont focus on the thing that sucks without also uplifting the stuff you claim to be supporting!!!

What’s funny about this is that on reddit they spent the weeks leading up to the World Cup mercilessly mocking the idea that America had anything to offer Europeans at all And now *ranch dressing* of all things has them like a feudal peasant encountering a Dorito

folks when we find a guy who's saying a bunch of dumbass shit can we get back to blocking them instead of screenshotting them and talking about their dumbass shit? these losers are not worth our time & when we let them waste it we insult the revolution

For those curious, John Byrne is a transphobe who compared us to pedos & said we engage in "a program of self-mutilation." #MarvelComics platforming him this #PrideMonth2026 is a slap in the face to the trans community.

That's kind of the revealing thing about the transphobic hate campagin: It has the backing of some of the most powerful people on the planet, two huge right wing media empires bankrolling it, several evil billionaires in thrall to it, and it still barely works.

this and like people doing joke alt text really stinks its not hard. someone said "write how youd describe it to someone over the phone" and its a billion times easier

Growing up, social media was a big part of self-discovery for me and lots of other LGBTQ teens. That's exactly why conservatives want to ban these platforms for kids. They would prefer to keep them isolated and in the dark while surveilling us all via digital IDs. spitfirenews.com/p/social-med...

mothers, don't let your babies grow up to be %careerName

I really do think a lot about how big tech systematically destroyed all the reasonably-safe places intended specifically for kids online…. and now powerful interests are turning around and claiming that we have to destroy Internet privacy because being online is obviously dangerous for kids.

remember when Barbie came out and then Mattel was like “oh so everyone wants a Polly Pocket movie… bc they love toys”

If you use AI-generated crap in any respect, you're a twat If you attempt to justify its use in any respect, you're a twat² If you hide its use in any respect, you're a twat³ & if you're that one person who responds "who cares" when someone calls it out when so many clearly care, you're a twat⁴

Going live with @eldritchboots.bsky.social! What's this? An impromptu debut? In MY Outer Wilds stream?? It's more likely than you think! www.twitch.tv/jackieautiem...

whenever anyone I know admits to using ChatGPT this appears above my head

As I see more friends fall victim to this discord hack, I remind people that if someone asks you to download their new game out of the blue, right now, because it will only take a couple minutes, after "catching up" for a minute It's a hack, and they will take over once you download that file.

Microsoft, Tencent, and their contemporaries cannot be forgiven for the way they vandalized and ransacked the game industry. Too many good studios have been stolen from the world by the companies that consumed them. Hell, *one* was too many. They burgled the house and then set fire to it.

I'm sure we all sound ridiculous but the neighborhood Pizza Hut of the 80s-90s was truly a nice place to hang out. Mine had a top down Pac-Man for two players that I dumped a lot of quarters into. Brand franchise aesthetic was comforting. Nothing has character now, nothing survives private equity.

American politicians want to “take care” of kids the same way a factory farm wants to “take care” of cows. They want a lot of them, they want them complacent, and they want to do as little as they can get away with to keep them alive long enough to extract all possible value from their bodies

“if politicians REALLY wanted to take care of kids…” they don’t. It is now and has always been a blatant lie, and I’m sick of playing along with the premise that they might.

Literally there are conversion therapy manuals that start with isolating your child from all potential sources of safeguarding and supportive information and cutting them off from unmonitored internet access so they can find the number for ChildLine while you're not watching is right up there.
