The patriarchy doesn’t teach men well how to be masculine. What it does do is tell them not to be feminine. Patriarchy hurts everyone. Especially men. And it despises people who reject it, because it cannot be questioned.

I just started E33 for the first time. Oh god, this is gonna be a tear wringer. Jennifer English is a voice I already have a strong attachment to, since Shadowheart was my first romance in BG3, but I hadn’t found Karlach yet so I had to jettison that run in act 3 and restart.

This is bullshit linguistic imperialism at work. This could be the textbook example, but the textbook itself would get censored by the publisher, in a fascist ouroboros.

Listening to a podcast interviewing Samantha Beart, and let me say, their voice just makes my brain feel all fizzy and agitated. I really hope I can meet them at a con and tell them how much Karlach meant to me. Not the tiefling thing, but the sense of immediacy and living. youtu.be/XkIefgHPxh8?...

It doesn’t fix things, but it really does bring me comfort to know how miserable some of the worst people are. Donald Trump tweeting over 200 times on Christmas. Billionaires fighting with strangers online during the holidays. Everything about Elon Musk

look at how little effort it takes for someone on the conservative grievance circuit to destroy a life millions of college kids have half assed an assignment at the last minute, you eat the F and move on but the effort to push trans people out of public life will use whatever it can get

ICE arrests people in their places of work - it was never about them not working ICE arrests people at their immigration hearings - it was never about "doing it the right way" Republicans vote for a felon - it was never about following the law It's always been about racism. #ProudBlue

This photo dates from the era of the Red Scare and McCarthyism, which sought to demonize Jews as subversive, disloyal elements in American society. Much of the Christmas music of that era was written by Jews to show patriotism and avoid being blacklisted. Trump wants that again.

Happy holidays, folks! Here’s a fine video about people who celebrate Christmas. I wouldn’t watch it at work though. youtu.be/5yg8o4cWojc?...

For those who celebrate, merry Christmas! My gift to you is this clip of how I imagine you probably talk every day. (This probably isn’t work appropriate, even though it’s just dialogue.) youtu.be/5yg8o4cWojc?...

GUESS WHAT, bitches. I survived Whamageddon. While working retail! That’s gotta be nightmare mode.

Not on Twitter any more, but let me be very clear. If you ever edit any of my art with AI I will not just haunt you. I will appear as a phantom behind who anyone who mentions you and gently hum the baby shark song until that’s all anyone can think of when they think of you

Me working retail for the last month, to the in-store music repeatedly: Bitch, all my apparel is gay, did you not notice?

this is a good excuse to post my all time favorite Star Trek meme

Ent-wives have Pixar Mom asses

Gut nittel nacht yiddin! Stay inside! Lock your doors! Don't let that scary undead guy in!

Top 5 songs from film/movies/games this year (I haven’t seen the second Wicked yet, don’t at me:) 5. Your Idol, KPDH 4. Golden, KPDH 3. This is What It Sounds Like, KPDH 2. Clean it Up, Hazbin Hotel 1. Hoes Depressed, Dispatch YES, I am a goofy girl.

Hey, @atherton.bsky.social plenty of valid ways to slam Stephen Miller could we please NOT do "this guy doesn't even get the meaning of Christmas" given that Miller is Jewish?

Nicki Minaj: *disapproves of trans people getting gender affirming care* Also Nicki Minaj: *spends more money than most people make in a year on gender affirming care for herself* I don’t begrudge her getting GAC. It’s her being a jackass to people she doesn’t like for getting it.

… this is news? Fascists always make these kinds of garbage narratives up to drum up hatred of the other. The Anglosphere hasn’t returned to the term Christendom, but I would expect to hear it a lot more, soon.

This is absolutely unacceptable. Jews need to resist having our pain turned into an engine of hatred and bigotry against Muslims. www.theguardian.com/australia-ne...

This is it this is the one

QTP with a robot that's not Star Wars or Transformers Hard Mode: No Gundam series, Battletech or Macross allowed

Why did you transition, wrong answers only Because I never tried to make other people happy by trying to be who they told me to be.

the biggest lie the british press tell about trans ppl isn't actually about trans ppl. it's their claim that 'gender critical' is a grass roots movement. it's a ruling class bigotry sparked and spurred on by the american religious right. it's a media and political class bigotry.

happy to allow Republican converts who have seen the light and realized Trump is a monster to come groveling to us and apologize for all the years of calling us hysterical *taps earpiece* what’s that now? they expect to be given power in the party they shat on? sorry you must have the wrong number

Bari’s complaint was “there’s nothing new here” and while that’s untrue it’s also irrelevant “we intentionally sent people to be tortured in a hellhole and bragged about it and The Hague is too good for everyone involved” is a story that simply cannot be told enough

We live in a society that spends money on building tiny boxes to stuff people into and cutting their bodies to make them fit, telling them they’ll never get out. Then they throw those people into smaller boxes. Yes, I am talking about both CECOT and trans people.

"Get the principals on camera" is such a telling phrase here, because it tells us that for Weiss there's no world in which the victims of these horrific actions can actually be seen as the subjects of the story: They're background noise, and the people who matter are the ones sending them.

I got a big hug from my mom today. I don’t get many of those, so I want to make it clear when it happens. And some trans woman won’t ever get one again. Celebrate when you are loved.

Hey, trans sisters, I’m switching to injections from sublingual estrogen. What should I know?

Alice Sullivan tells universities to suppress pro-trans research to protect GC staff. However, HER OWN DATA shows pro-trans research is already more suppressed. When I told the BBC this, they edited out any reference to the data. They have now corrected the record. www.bbc.co.uk/helpandfeedb...

A few billionaires control things. Money has ALWAYS controlled things. Sometimes it's been the monarchy, the Church, etc. Notably, none of the people you named are Jews. A cabal of Jews do not, have never, controlled the world. The conspiracy theory exists to detract from those in actual power.

Just a countdown until we get "You can say the n-word again," from the administration.

I don’t recall if it was this year or last, but I don’t think any point in media ever had me crying as hard and as long and as much as I did as that one scene in Veilguard. I paid full retail for it. Totally worth it. (And the rest of it was also great.)

Speaking of lashon hara… but also, WOW.

A fascinating thread on the harm malicious speech can do, how it was understood in the ancient world, and how social media makes it infinitely worse. A long but brilliant read.

Also screw the BBC for its naked agenda. It refused to carry a hugely expensive first ever YouGov survey we commissioned showing how awful trans lives in the UK have become because it was "not strong enough" but there's no piece of anti-trans hatred too petty for it to platform.

Basically, I'm 100% against Nazis, Nazism, Nazi symbols, and the ideas of Adolf Hitler And I'm old enough to remember when that stance was so widespread in American politics and culture that it was considered boring to even say

The running theme between the Epstein story, banning trans healthcare for minors, religious homeschooling and the complaints about adult children estranging themselves is a fundamental American belief that children are property with no rights of their own

Gonna enjoy this tomorrow before I get the stuff liberating my neurochemistry from a bad end.

Topics like the Talmud or the USS Liberty used to come up in the 80s and 90s at fringe right wing political conventions. The fact that these are conversations being had in mainstream GOP places when that party controls all three branches of the federal government is bad bad bad.

Archived and alt-texted! archive.ph/thcGa Christ, what an asshole.

Oh, I subbed to this in a New York minute. Dimwits who repost Stormfront MS paint ignoramuses and trolls? Not on my Bluesky.

Gd loves us and wants us to be happy.

Hey, look, the party of free enterprise at work. I own an athletic bra. I got it at Victoria’s Secret. Is Trump going to install cameras in the changing rooms there and get a feed of the best footage? Seriously, fuck these dimwits.
