At the "suffering unique to the privileged" store Ask if it's really unique to the privileged, or a society-wide problem you only care about when it hurts a privileged person "It's legitimate suffering sir" Check the suffering It's society-wide

I did not ask for compassion for Talia because she has a special exception, e.g. her trauma. She needs no special exception to merit compassion. That's my point. An environment that values compassion is strongly protective of marginalized people and that is what I aim to foster.

a silly crime drama about the yakuza published by SEGA had this + the main character fully understanding and basically saying "you do you girl, love is love" AND WAS MADE IN 2009 Transphobia in 2025 is very much a modern invention of bigots and billionaires. It isn't normal & it will get better.

This is a direct reference to the Proud Boys who use the gold wreath FAFO logo. I fully believe Elon is going to utilize vigilante violence to enforce things. You should take this seriously.

He is so stunningly, uniquely terrible at posting that it immediately stands out even in an offline context like this. The absolute worst to ever do it. In a category by himself. Singularly anti-talented in a way we will talk about for decades if not centuries. The Wayne Gretzky of bad posting.

Exactly why I've been writing, podcasting, and damn near screaming about using the right language. The mainstream media is failing us SO badly right now. Stop. Calling. This. Shit. DEI. This is (re)segregation. This is racial purging. Cleansing Black people from positions of power.

In 2017, centrists and liberals told antifascist activists that the institutions would hold and the State would preserve basic democratic rights. Now the country is being hollowed out by literal billionaires making Hitler salutes. This should be on the cover of every newspaper.

i absolutely believe this is where we are headed. this has always been the playbook. sartre wrote in 1945 that they delight in their own bad faith. in 2017, andrew anglin made it the official editorial policy for his nazi blog. it’s always “just a joke,” but the punchline is actual violence.

DOGE has been sending their mass emails from a misconfigured server, causing DOGE emails to fail SPF (Sender Policy Framework) validation. This means that agencies are probably marking DOGE emails as spam.

Apparently, entire agencies are having their emails go to spam because the opm email list is using private servers.

This is the most wretched campaign of deliberate, explicit persecution the United States has perpetrated against a minority group in decades. Many of the most important people in politics and journalism are busying themselves trying to figure out how little to say or do about it.

If you’re not trans and you believe believe yourself to be a progressive ally type of person I highly recommend you read up on a prison practice called “v-coding” because with any luck it will make you physically ill and shock you to the point of action

“We had to erase trans people or we couldn’t get our federal funding” Fuck the federal funding. You fight, you sue, you do not become complicit in our mass erasure. We are all in this together, and we all go down together. I will not allow us to be jettisoned or erased.

Don't be gaslit: They are Nazis. This is a Nazi salute. They are not hiding it, or dog whistling, they are announcing it. They have come out as Nazis. Show the people in your life these images all together. Make them understand this is not an accident, or a fluke. It is happening here.

What major national newspaper has the stones to commission an oped piece by a trans people asking if any of our passports are safe? Those get lost or damaged all the time. Who is to say you have to wait 10 years between renewals? I certainly have never in my life.

I don’t understand how there’s any debate about whether to characterize them as Nazis when they’re out here sieg heiling. It’s an absolute failure of messaging not to name and condemn this behavior, and build a narrative around it.
