Remember folks: if you have any small amount of artistic talent, any sex appeal, or can make your friends laugh, the richest man on earth is crying screaming throwing up because he can’t be you.

I’m taking my own advice and rereading this essay and this passage sums up why I hate “Kill rapists” shit even as I am sympathetic to survivors who feel a desire for violent revenge

The current horrors are unevenly distributed. Not all of us are suffering the same effects of fascism. We have to do what we can to defend and protect the most vulnerable in our midst. We can do so while keeping grief close and tending to it. “ shorturl.at/Lk11O

I have, many, *many* issues with Monsieur Paul, but honestly? During some of the moments where he’s essentially guilting people into being decent, I could hug the guy because YES!

“Her biological clock ticks loudly. She’s thirty, almost dead.” HOLY ONE HELP ME!! I AM *GASPING* FOR AIR!!! 🤣🤣🤣

“My child, Hanukkah is the most important Jewish holiday, so important it happens eight times in a row! That’s why we call it “Long Blue Christmas.” (Read the whole article, it’s perfection.)

Genuinely difficult to think of anything that has ever confirmed the essential unity of capitalist crisis and environmental destruction as clearly & undeniably as AI. The race for shares of a shrinking profit rate sends capital flowing to a largely fictitious sector that consumes the material world.

THE RISE OF END TIMES FASCISM My first major piece of the new Trump era, co-written with @astra.bsky.social. The governing ideology of the far right has become a monstrous, supremacist survivalism. Our task is to build a movement strong enough to stop them. www.theguardian.com/us-news/ng-i...

Remembering Wee Small Sophie singing “Sweet Liberty” from “Jane Eyre” at the top of her lungs…and I’m honestly surprised it took me as long to figure out my womanhood as it did.

Lena, describing me: “Like the world’s cutest barnacle!” Me: “No, honey, that would be Nora.”

"At least $5.9 trillion will be inherited by billionaire children over the next 15 years, the bank calculates."

There are people in this world who will always hate you, no matter what you do. Give them something worth hating.

Absolute fucking cowards. Nothing in the Supreme Court ruling comprehensively established that it is unlawful to ever include us. You could fight that case and win if you were willing to take a risk for us.

Trans women has been welcomed at the Women's Institute since the 1970s and one member is in her 80's and has been a member for decades. This is pure bigotry pushed by legal threats backed monetarily by JK Rowling. www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2025...

“Ebenezer slid his swollen legs out of bed and into a pair of itchy, vinyl, corduroy dungarees. ‘Jesus Christ’ he thought, scratching his rough face and reaching for the bottle of Barbie’s-Best Barbiturates, ‘Another miserable Christmas on Mars with my ex-wife…’”

An easy way to explain luddites: Textile manufacturers brought in machines that could do in an hour what would have taken 12 hours by hand. And then, tried to keep paying the now 12x more productive workers the same wages as before. That's it, that was the problem luddites had. Not complex.

Pithy words don't mean that it's easy. Only that it's the most important thing in the world.

Obviously this is impossible because Alan Moore looks like he's genetically a wizard, it's simply impossible to imagine what he would look like as a schoolboy oh there he is.

This is why you NEVER EVER use a company provided anything for doing anything personal. I have a SCAD laptop and i wont even check my emails on it let alone pay stuff. Thats just common sense

Oscar Wilde's The Canterville Ghost is one of my favourite ghost stories, despite it monstrously violating one of my big 'rules' for ghost stories: No Irony About Ghosts. It's hilarious. But also, so tender and sad and moving. My god, that man could write. He dances between tones effortlessly.

Pay my goddamn bills and then maybe write some of the like, half dozen books that are sitting unwritten in my head.

THE ARCTIC MONKEY’S ARE “CLASSIC ROCK” NOW?! …Good GRIEF I feel old.

When a fourteen year old calls the Arctic Monkeys “classic rock” that is ageist and discriminatory, please hand me my Icy Hot

this statement that all men are created equal is revolutionary even now. It is a statement that the nazis in power are trying to erase. The fact that the US has never properly upheld its founding statement does not mean that it is not a statement we should always aspire to uphold

Of course, America has always had hateful xenophobia and bigotry. America has also always had immigration and multiculturalism and dreams of making a difference in your life. Fascists are trying to erase that dream, and denying that dream’s existence does nothing but help them

The best thing about America has never been what it is, but always what it aspires to be. The Nazis in power are trying to erase that aspiration and write in an aspiration towards hate and xenophobia. Saying “America has always been bad” does nothing but help them. Say “America should be better.”

The unfortunate reality is: he probably learned this in higher ed. I have yet to find a useable Christian Study Bible because Christian scholars will repeat tired lies about 1st cent. CE Judaism *in the very footnotes that are supposed to help Christian folks responsibly interpret their scriptures.*

Courage in the streets. Capitulation among the elites.

Every paragraph is a banger. I’m so happy right now. Sometimes you find a piece of writing just when you need it.
