not much of a “human rights report” when it doesn’t include human rights

his lawyers just released images of the gay makeup artist venezuelan asylum seeker send to the slave camp in el salvador and yeah, no, not to stereotype my own people but there's not a chance in hell he's in a gang or they seriously suspected he was, they're trying to kill that gay man

my dog is such a cunt for no reason

wait so why are people using transsexual again unironically

“The regs slated for repeal, affecting…sources of pollution, had been set to deliver at least $254bn in economic benefits annually via lowered healthcare costs and fewer sick days [etc]. By contrast, the cost of complying with the regulations is around $40bn a year.” apple.news/AwtejKUztQSm...

ah, another yap session from yours truly. i have too many thoughts and need to talk about them to strangers on the internet

i’m finding myself in weird position, ethically, with current Discourse™. while i understand the course of my framework is to better society, broadly, i still find myself at a strange crossroads with certain aspects of free expression and speech. 1/12

glad i’m getting on the bluesky brainrot train, this rocks

I want everyone to know what DARVO is. I explain DARVO to people multiple times a week. Deny, Attack, Reverse Victim and Offender. Created by scholar Jennifer Freyd to describe the pattern of gaslighting abuse victims face, it applies to so much happening in politics, too

maybe internalized self-hatred but i feel like despite the fact i pass im not very feminine but i don’t know how to do the high femme vibe without being skinny. christ i hate beauty standards

thinking about how i can immediately tell slop television from quality television. it takes both good writing and good acting to pull off a natural flow of conversation.

thinking about eleanor rigby being about lonely people but they only mention two lonely people. makes you think.

Citizens of foreign countries seem to have a much better grasp on how exactly to wield economic pressure via boycotts than we do here in the US and that sure is something.

screaming and crying that my avenues are really narrow with my fields, but fuck it, get me a professorship in 6-8 years

huh never realized how furious anti-vaxxers make me

i am 100% aware i’m just trying to make my field of study relevant

one thing i think we (transgender ppl) don’t talk about enough are the counter arguments to religiously-justified transphobia. i’ve worked on several theories wrt gender, sexuality, God, and the church. working within the confines of christian theology provides a solid foundation for 1/3

Hi, yes. So restricting press access while siding with an invading country while targeting allies while exploting fears of immigrants/trans people while cutting social and government services to those who need them- this has a name

objects are hung and people are hanged; people can also be hung but that means something else entirely

going to lose my marbles. why is everyone fucking poly ???? why can’t i find a monogamous person ffs

fuck it doing this. u can DM me a dropbox link or email it to me (email is on my bandcamp) send in the next few hours and I will jam with it, will make downloadable no paywall. If you must send anything melodic - send in c natural minor. if sent later will try and use it for the next round

i don't think it's worth thinking too hard about the trump third term thing because as lawless as this supreme court currently is if we get to "this extremely uncomplicated clause of the 22nd amendment doesn't say the words it says" we will be in a fundamentally different place
