Interesting that an institution predicated on the notion of one’s shitty deeds being absolved by the sacrifice of someone else has bred some of the most hateful people to walk the earth. Almost like it teaches people that they don’t have to take responsibility for their own immortality. Weird. /s
“I’m having trouble with the singular they/them.”
Ever hear of the royal ‘we’? Well, it’s like that. I’m basically royalty.
Being an extrovert and having social anxiety is the pits.
I hope people are taking stock of what businesses are turning their backs on the marginalized right now because if this shit ever ends and there is a day of reckoning we don’t need any of the Hugo Bosses, Fords, IBMs, Coca-Colas, BMWs, Chanels, Kodaks, etc sticking around.
“If we keep letting the republicans do awful shit without doing anything about it, people will be so hungry for something else we can win without actually committing to real progress.”

Did I just do a rebrand? No! I did a reveal. I’m dropping the pen name A.B. Charles and going with my name, the one I made legal months ago. I chose it, I might as well use it right? Was the new PFP taken in my bathroom? No comment.
Not loving that a lot of the discourse around Newsom and Emanuel is in deciding what the acceptable level of trans oppression is to garner the most votes. Blue no matter who voters kinda suck.
For those who need to read it: Demanding that a candidate not huck marginalized groups under a bus and be against genocide is not a purity test. “Purity test” is just a made up term that allows assholes to try to silence minority voices without considering what they’re saying.
Starting to think we’re going to need something a little more powerful than free mom hugs from the blue no matter who crowd.
Ahh so run of the mill we know better than you infantilism junkies. Got it.
I haven’t been over here in a while. Not sure if I should spend more time here. Is there a general fuck Newsom vibe here these days or has everyone settled into general ambivalence to the plight of trans people?
Check out Dawnbreaker about a bunch of artists taking on a system that has been sucking up creative juices and redistributing it to help people produce low quality facsimiles of good work. It also has an ultraviolet lynx, The Morrígan, and queer characters being allowed to live their lives.
Hey it’s my birthday week! Be a super cool gift if a bunch of people read and reviewed my book. It’s on Kobo and about a zillion other places or can be requested through your library.
No word on what allergen sent Noem to the hospital but inside sources are telling me it was ‘truth’.
I’ve often confused cynicism for wisdom but I think there is wisdom in realizing that most people’s allyship stops at the promise to do better.
I want to start a startup to give decent haircuts to men who are part of startups. They need help y’all.
The number of times people have told me of “normal happenings” at their Christian private schools that sounds like (is) abuse is too many times.
Ok, so here’s the thing, if you don’t read my book they’re going to win. You don’t want them to win do you?
I think a group of moose should also be called a murder.
Does Vegas do odds on which Democrats are going to cave on the budget? At this point could be Schumer, could be Fetterman, the odds on Booker just got better.
All the cover bands at the bar this weekend being clever and changing the lyrics for Jenny to 864-7309.
Sometimes the comment section is full of people who would be really fun at parties other times it’s full of people who would be “really fun at parties.”
There is a word for Democratic leaders who won’t take action and Republicans who are afraid to speak out against the moral failings of their party in this moment. That word is craven.
At least we know that the escalation from strongly worded letter is airplane banner now.

The thing about apologies is that without corrective action, each one issued means less than the last.
I was once at a comic-con and a Darth Vader cosplayer was giving out fist bumps. On contact he would say “Alderaan” as he poofed out his fingers from his fist. I think about that a lot. Peak humor.
Know that rejecting AI is an anti-fascist act. The major AI systems are controlled by billionaires who would like nothing more than to squash the artist class, the people who engage in deep thought, the people standing as vangaurds against compliance and complacency. Do your part and reject AI today
I know too many 40 year old men who started saying “Let’s Go!” a few years back. Ok, I know one, but that’s too many.
Youth Pastor Voice(minus the predator vibes): There’s a little known guy some people would have also called woke. Maybe you’ve heard of him, his name was…
