irony of course is that what these people are demanding are explicit racial preferences and quotas for themselves

Hillary brings up a point I'd been contemplating expanding on for a few days now. how white women's tears still cost people of color, especially Black people anything from jobs to their lives and they're afforded the cover of softness while we aren't. thread incoming.

it may be controversial to say, but if you want to include political discussions in your spec fic, you will need to read things that arent sff. like historical non-fiction, and actual academic political study. you do need to know what you are talking about instead of copy-pasting twitter threads.

The story of LGBT rights is a story of advances followed by setbacks followed by media with no skin in the game saying, "It's because you were too loud/asked for too much/moved too fast/got too big for your britches/didn't make your case." That never changes--but happily it's never the last word.

And without due process this Georgia-born American citizen spends the rest of his life disappeared in a jail in Jamaica. Do you get it yet?

1. Alert, and please share widely. A lawyer at the ACLU has asked me to inform my transgender readers that they should NOT be applying for passports right now - the state department has not issued guidance to comply with the court order and they are urgently trying to get them to do so. 🧵

Reminder that I have a monthly newsletter, that it covers the craft of writing, media, progress on my various projects, and eventually I will be serializing a novel there featuring glass swords, romantic chivalry layered over cosmic horror, feuding families, and a contemporary setting. #booksky

Those who are more devoted to "order" than to justice; who prefer a negative peace which is the absence of tension to a positive peace which is the presence of justice.

I want to discuss nuance. Because while we have masked kidnappers running rampant across the country and this is obviously fucked up and unacceptable; A lot of the pushback I'm hearing is "nobody should cover their face." Uhm. No. Religion, Cold Weather, and Germs still exist.

There's a weird left-QAnon thing starting up centered around dubious claims about the 2024 results popping up at the periphery of the internet. I feel like we're gonna hear more and more about this so just laying down my understanding of it now. I think its basically a hoax. 1/a lot

Thread. Also: many folks have had the good fortune to never have encountered larouchies, and therefore don't know that they're basically a weird cult. Seriously, do not engage with them. Much like tankies, it's a "kick the polite ones out of the bar before it gets ugly" situation. Block on sight.

the number of people on the skyline not direct linking the NYT’s deliberately shitty outrage bait brings me joy today and a single unit of hope that maybe a small number of people are Getting It that this institution is not your friend.

This is a vital message: one of the larger reasons BlueSky is refreshingly free of alt-right shitlords is because in the early days we made a gentleperson’s agreement to starve these fuckos out and it worked. No likes, no quotes, no engagement. They got bored and left. Please keep the Old Ways.

Chatbots — LLMs — do not know facts and are not designed to be able to accurately answer factual questions. They are designed to find and mimic patterns of words, probabilistically. When they’re “right” it’s because correct things are often written down, so those patterns are frequent. That’s all.

I need all of #lawsky to see this video from a Colorado appeals court livestream yesterday. I am in actual tears. Sound incredibly on, the subtitles will not help.

There are no distractions. It's all bad. Systematically stripping trans people of their rights, guys in balaclavas shoving any brown person with a tattoo into a ummarked vans, ending healthcare for millions. It's all in service of fascism and technofeudalism. It's all one thing. That's the point.
