You’re in danger tbh Luis is out for blood and by blood I mean tears

Fantasy is getting way too mormon coded all of a sudden, sanderson's window plan prose, DNDs pathetic art style and cultural practices, everything going on with popular romantasy. we need to make it fucked up, illogical, and transexual again. At least catholicism was theatrical; tolkien and wolfe.

One false dichotomy that makes leftists allergic to feminism is their insistence on a clean difference between material & dignity harms, which in practice are interdependent. Same with the insistence on distinguishing “state” & “interpersonal” violence, which in reality are not so easy to separate.

Feminists have long been scared of looking mean, and as a result we’ve been way too nice to antifeminist women. Sorry no, you’re not submissive, servile, and dependent because you’re a woman and that’s just your feminine nature. You’re submissive, servile,and dependent because you lack self respect.

Women are dying of sepsis after being denied abortions. A conservative sect that wants to repeal women’s voting rights is growing and gaining national attention. *This* is the NYT’s contribution to conversations about women?

What happened, @nytimes.com? Why not stand by your original headline? Because it’s absolutely an accurate representation of this trash conversation.

To publish this at all should be a fireable offense - but to publish it as women’s rights are being decimated is deeply immoral, bordering on evil

Panel Description from WorldCon 2025 Strong Woman Lead =/= LGBTQIA= Tagged Culture/DEI Room 420-422 9-10am Have you ever walked into a bookshop and asked for books with strong women leads? Perhaps you've requested that love not be a major plot point? Has the staff excitedly passed you half a dozen books that, though good, have a bit of a repeating theme? Here we ask the question: Why do authors/bookshops assume the only way to have a strong woman lead is to make them gay with a woman love interest and prevent men characters from rising over the background? Isn't it possibly to have a book with strong women and men characters in it and not have them fall in love?

WorldCon panels dropped and I guess they've decided to jump on the right wing's train of strawmen about the gay agenda? Please, if anyone in their life has encountered a bookstore giving them half a dozen sapphic recs with 'strong women leads' let me know so I can shop there

This was just posted by @tbretc.bsky.social on another platform. The Chicago Sun-Times obviously gets ChatGPT to write a ‘summer reads’ feature almost entirely made up of real authors but completely fake books. What are we coming to?

Senator Chris Van Hollen is on his way to El Salvador to discuss bringing Kilmar Abrgeo Garcia back home.

Malone said Saturday that his campaign volunteers have heard concerns from thousands of voters over Musk’s work with the Trump administration to reshape the federal government, which he said has led to “benefits for veterans, retirees and students” being cut “so Elon Musk can get a tax cut.” “Josh Parsons might be OK with that but I’m not,” Malone said. “On Tuesday, you’ll get to make the choice between more Musk, or Lancaster values.”

The Democrat who just flipped a very Trumpy seat in Pennsylvania’s Senate made opposition to Elon Musk front and center in his campaign.

Rape is the first and most intimate form of authoritarianism and the one on which subsequent forms of domination are based. Rape is the ur text, the framework, the guiding metaphor for American authoritarian politics.

The problem with our current...everything...is if you haven't been terminally online the last 20 or so years, you're so out of the loop that the culture war has become incomprehensible, and if you *have* been watching it this whole time you sound like a crazy person trying to explain.

one look give 'em whiplash #fe3h

My controversial opinion on young men’s right wing radicalization is that we should not undo the second wave and sacrifice women’s rights, dignity, freedom, and access to the public sphere for the sake of men’s feelings.

oh weird, who could have imagined that these are the attitudes of the people around trump

An online review of a local clown says: “Not what I had hoped for Disappointed. We agreed he would bring balloons for $20. He showed up with 3 or 4 saying one got away from him. Spent time playing a video game. Walked on the bowling alley - and fell down (needed to have the bowling alley shoes). Clothing seemed unkept. Clown face makeup was scant.”

The Clown Paradox: the more negative the online review of a clown is, the funnier the clown sounds

oh yeah, an enormous part of the revanchist right's goal is simply to erase the women's liberation movement entirely, a goal shared by the techno-natalist and christofascist right

I told you federal jobs are a shorthand for minority employment for the Right.

One of my best friends is from a sleepy, wealthy small town in the south-west of Germany. He said, so many of my parents’ neighbours are rich and bored, with little to complain about, and they’ve radicalised themselves at dinner parties and online. In their aimlessness, they’ve bonded over hate.
