No, you just spent 5 minutes sobbing in a parking lot because there’s a hole in your sock and it’s only Tuesday and things are tough and it’s only Tuesday

If your position is that regime change should be forced on countries where the president does not respect democratic norms and regularly kidnaps opponents using an officially sanctioned paramiliatary, have I got news for you about your position on the United States

Perhaps now people will stop wishcasting about the US military refusing illegal orders. That's not a thing that happens. The 100% compliance rate with using civilian boats for target practice was a bit of a tell.

So ... you'll be writing them a sternly worded note and then do some hand wringing before you give up and go to lunch?

Your gerontocracy is part of the problem.

Similarly, releasing a zine last year netted wayyy more income than any online work I did. It was my best paying writing job of 2024 and I got to do wherever I wanted. It's not on the internet outside of my gumroad and when it is it'll be in a free archive. Great!

GMA on ABC.

News alert: Good Morning America Troops arrive at the Southern border, battle for the Super Bowl and panda-monium at the National Zoo. Watch GMA on ABC.

This is probably what’s going to drive me insane in the weeks and months ahead.

Trump’s fascism is going to be presented alongside sports news and wordplay about new animals at the zoo, like all of this is normal.

I think it's really beautiful that a piece of transfeminist writing firmly committed to epistemic JUSTICE for ALL transfeminine people is so popular in our community and that this popularity has propelled it to a level of visibility in a cis space that would normally be denied through epistemicide

There is an AI company called GeoSpy, the AI is designed to look at a photo (any photo) and tell the user where that photo was taken. They initially opened it to the public, but privacy concerns led to them going private. And now they sell to the folllowing: law enforcement, government and insurance. I know we’ve been saying “don’t fucking take pics at protests” for years? But I think we need to escalate that to “don’t take pics at pride. Don’t take pics at queer events” etc

First and foremost, my job is to understand what the writer is wanting and trying to do.

Only then can I start applying the rules and structures of language to help them get there, using whatever they've got on the page as a base.

My job is to clarify and strengthen broadcast, always.
