European friend asked how I'm able to afford living in America and I said "easy, I'm boycotting everything" and then I ate a single grape.

I live for this shit

Beth worked as a doctor for years until a transphobe turned up. Now, she's had to leave her job, leave her home, move to the other side of the world and is still being hounded and harassed by the media and cult.

She did nothing but exist as trans in the orbit of Sandie Peggie.

Yet again I remind everyone (as Elizabeth does in her very next tweet) that "foreigners are corrupting our pure blood with weakness & disease" is Fascism 101. Not some variant, not some metaphorically similar thing, not some echo -- the thing itself.

This is your reminder that it's been ten months since the assassination of Melissa Hortman, her husband and her dog, and there hasn't been even a hint of justice for her family, friends or colleagues.

I’m 100% sure the homophobic Jean would have despised the modern concept of asexuality as queer and I wish she’d lived to 120 to see it.

Meanwhile, she’s the reason folk sometimes think asexual headcanons & remakes are… homophobic.

Personally, asexual Sherlock makes sense.

He’s queer either way.

i don't understand bluesky people who pretend to be on the left but absolutely hate poor people and complain about people asking for money. hating beggars is actually just standard reactionary stuff. it's weird to know about systemic economic inequality and still be doing that.

I do think tech companies are underestimating the amount of
- new account fatigue
- new app fatigue
- useless upgrade fatigue
- terms of service fatigue

Anti-trans activism is the Gorin family business. Moti Gorin’s sibling Shlomit is also an anti-trans academic. I have profiles on both here: www.transgendermap.com/issues/acade...

1. For a variety of reasons, the Talmud is just very social media-friendly. It's more novel for most people. It's more immediate to Jewish practice. The format is basically Late Antiquity Reddit. Plus, there's a chance to dunk on antisemites who are very Not Normal about the Talmud.

The Onion wants to make us submissive slaves to the New world order.

Correct.

If youre trying to win a fair fight with Nazis all youre succeeding in is legitimizing them.

I do not understand what it is that makes people allergic to alt text. You're just being less than your best self when you refuse to do it. I see 40k-100k following accounts who won't do it, a middle finger to everyone with issues needing alt text to be able to participate. You're bumming me out. 1/

Normally I'd do the "have we learned nothing from literature and cinema?!" bit here, but at this point some ancient curses might represent a nice break from endless political and tech bro fuckery.

NEWS: Virginia Redistricting Constitutional Amendment projected to PASS. Helping the Democrats neutralize the advantage Republicans gained in other states like Texas.

WASHINGTON (AP) — Virginia voters approve new US House districts that could aid Democrats in midterm elections.

"should we really resort to playing dirty to defeat the nazis i–"

yes. kick em in the fucking balls. what kind of question is that. grow the fuck up

Wow it’s so weird that northern Virginia would be virulently anti-Trump after a whole bunch of them lost their jobs to his clownshow

it really speaks to the double standard pervasive throughout all of politics that even when Democrats play dirty they put it up to a public referendum and still get harsher media coverage

Kind of struck by how the VA redraw was *extremely* brazen compared to CA

Going from 43-9 to 48-4 is really kind of minor compared to going from 6-5 to 10-1

CA went from 82% —> 92% D seats
VA went from 55% —> 91% D seats

And they released the map in advance! It was kind of insane! lmao
