what the actual fuck is going on with this loser fuck opposition party

for fuck sake, this is not psychosis. stop using the terms of mental illness to describe racism & evil.

Want an anti-fascist how-to on creating revolutionary art? Walter Benjamin’s “The Work of Art in the Age of Mechanical Reproduction” is relevant as ever.

stabbed 40 times. what a horrific way to go. every time I read about a trans woman being murdered, it's always over the top incredible violence. the hate people have for us is deep. transphobia rots the soul, and we pay for it in unspeakable ways.

Every time one of us dies young, murdered buy individual or situation, I find myself full of a particularly angry grief. The kind of anger that has me feel downright hostile to anyone that isn’t a trans woman.

the six genders are: political, stoner, jock, theater, preppy, and insane. they are all intermixable into even more genders, but these are the most basic.

hot take on this: even though he's an idiot it's actually refreshing to hear politicians acknowledge this sort of thing out loud.

The nakba never ended.

this is not psychosis. please i am begging you (read: everyone), stop attributing incompetence, evil, and capitalism to mental illness. the mad have enough trouble living in a world that hates us, without well meaning people contributing to our oppression.

the basic throughline to every round of trans discourse—whether it is internal to us (are puppygirls sissies) or external (is it fair game for big lib accounts to feed trans women to the right wing woodchipper)—is that there are few or no meaningful structures of trans socialization

Absolutely fuck you, Amazon. When I bought this device there was no mention of my purchase being time limited at your discretion. It does not require software updates, so the only "support" necessary is that kindle books are available in a format that can be sent to it. This shouldn't be legal.

okay, but for real, governments are tweeting each other war memes & trump basically conducts international diplomacy via truth social.

They aren't banning it for "LGBTQ" history ties. They are banning it for its trans history, specifically. They are banning an instumental piece with no words because it was written in honor of Marsha P. Johnson.

oh so we're bringing back ghost towns

One of the ways Aaron is actively obfuscating how transphobia shapes the platform is by referring to “identity“ (which functions as a right/centrist dog whistle in his posts) instead of addressing power or naming how transphobia is something they need to be attentive to

Identity doesn’t give people a free pass but why is it that BlueSky seems to enforce the rules more stringently (or make new ones up entirely) when the transgression is by a trans and/or Black person? Aaron isn’t addressing this and that’s what makes it DARVO, yes.

i have yet to see a single cis person say something about the fact that the government just designated trans people a terrorist group and threatened to kill all of us.

Last week, the Trump administration explicitly stated its intention to "neutralize" - its word, not mine - US trans people. Since then I can count on one hand the number of cis people who have even mentioned it. A whole bunch of cis people have talked about trans people demanding too much though.

And a Trans woman was fucking murdered last night on a college campus. Your Trans friends and neighbors are literally being targeted by maniacs via state propaganda. It is a fucking nightmare and ending it should be a requirement for any Dem fucking running in the midterms.

things to always ignore in recipes: - amount of garlic - amount of onion - amount of salt - amount of seasoning (if recipe is on a website called "good eats with carol-jeanne" etc.)

look at this messaging failure. its like they can't see the reality in front of their eyes. trump is the leader of the gop. everything he does has their blessing and support. but the dem message is still, after all this, "we can work with republicans." meanwhile republicans are calling to end us.

making myself mad by reading posts from trans people defending the mods here

Yeah like if you believe in harm reduction, that's fine - but if it's one and a half years after your party lost an election because they couldn't stop supporting genocide and you still think the people who oppose genocide are the problem, you are a genocide apologist.

(For those unaware, Aaron was a senior trust and safety executive at Twitter — I don't know if he was literally head of T&S, but he was pretty high up)

Lmao @aaron.bsky.team only gave me two strikes because I am cis and thus do not qualify for bluesky's trans strike penalty

jesse singal, will stancil, libsoftiktok, and jd vance have all gleefully mocked, trolled and threatened (and sometimes doxed) trans users on here while aaron and jay frantically backtracked on rules and undid suspensions

ppl are getting emails saying they're violating anti-stalking rules but all of the posts from staff and surrounding discourse is about how there's a bunch of trannies being mean and like. those arent the same thing. it really just seems like they're making shit up to remove ppl they don't like

I like Bsky a lot, but it seems undeniable that the ownership/staff hate who their users are, and particularly hate the fact that trans people are such an avid userbase. In addition to being despicable, that's also concerning as someone whose living currently depends on trans Bsky.

i am sufficiently insane to serve this purpose

official slogan of the democratic party

why are these weirdos so concerned with cum

No, Aaron. I get you’re in a tough spot, but I cannot permit you to run from this.

American chaser: transgender is like hamburger

when has my "identity" given me a "free pass" in anything

how much do etsy witches rent for? i need to hex a certain someone

Even the accusation that “trans people use their identity as a shield” can only be made from a perspective hostile to the mere existence of trans people. It is a POV that sees us as perpetual bad actors, “trying to get away with something.” It is incapable or unwilling to see us as individuals.

So much of how society got here & so much abuse directed at marginalized communities is because bigots and monsters figured out how to be hatemongers “politely” and slip past corporate moderators, and when those communities rightfully angrily push back against it they are banned for being “abusive”

I didn't notice at first, but Aaron very specifically isn't saying that people in certain groups aren't being targeted or treated differently. He's only saying that being in a group doesn't give you immunity to being punished. Very interesting

junji ito style art of moon presence would fix me

...did he really turn on the new system and then take a vacation, bc that would explains so much about last week

everyone who brings this up is about to get 683 strikes

googling up why he left his last job & lol, that’s interesting.

I'm one of those early adopters who handed out invites to other trans people trying to get away from transphobia on Twitter. it's unfortunate that transphobia followed us back here

This place genuinely feels like it's an overgrown forum, complete with asshole admins and mods who are way too petty or incompetent for the position of authority they've been given.

this is straight up DARVO
