The "feminism" in Trans Exclusionary Radical Feminism functions the same way as the "socialism" in National Socialism. It's there to convince you that they're addressing material issues of an oppressed class, when they're actually just exploiting said class to hurt others.

I sorely need to get back to swimming. With all the back-to-back obstructions keeping me away, from travel to being busy with Halloween prep to conventions to illness to Christmas/New Year hibernation, a run of truly abysmal weather, now writing busyness, I’ve not been to the pool since October!

Still thinking about Batman: The Cult. This is one of the coolest layouts for a fight I’ve ever seen in a comic. Bernie Wrightson rules.

It’s pretty telling that, even in Apple’s own ads for their AI, they present the guy employing it for help sending e-mails in the office as this lazy slob who can’t be bothered doing basic work as his stressed colleagues try to pick up his slack around him.

If you have a device that CAN run Apple Intelligence you need to turn this off as well as the general Apple Intelligence setting. Settings > Screen Time > scroll down to Content and Privacy > turn on Restrictions > Intelligence and Siri > turn off the first three options

It may not be cool or hip in some circles, but we legitimately do need a massive amount of people to run for office. Flood the school boards, councils, county seats, state legislatures, Congress, etc. Big changes at the top happen when the ground shifts at the bottom. And that can start now.

People being rude to service workers is a red flag both in needlessly being a dickhead to someone but also in that you can tell they appreciate it when you make their work a little easier and who doesn’t want that shit? That shit feels amazing. A waiter being happy? That shit makes your weekend

As it happens, Trump has gone so far off the cliff that Europe isn’t divided but closing ranks. I figured that it’ll become politically difficult for European politicians to try and suck up to him because electorates see what Trump is doing and are very angry. But it’s even better than expected:

Something is shifting. They are still breaking things and stealing things. And they will keep trying to break and to steal. But the propaganda magic around the oligarchical coup is fading. (1/2)

Who out there has been to Fan Expo Canada? One of my goals for 2025 was to visit more new places, and Toronto is somewhere I’ve long wanted to go to, plus Fan Expo is the biggest North American con I’ve never been to. Do publishers go? How was it for creators who’ve been?

Scottish Labour conference have voted to reject a motion to back the Cass Review and scrap Scottish Government guidance on supporting young trans people. Whatever anti-trans route the leadership is on, the membership do not agree.

Here's another tip for comics writers: If you remove the characters' names from their corresponding dialogue lines, can you still tell who's saying what? If a line sounds like any character could have said it, make the chars' speaking styles more distinct, to add some "voice" to your script.

One added punchline in Anas Sarwar and Scottish Labour abdicating their backbones and throwing trans people under the bus with their GRR U-turn is it didn’t even get them the support of TERFs. Saw one odious Times columnist (who I then blocked) and his replies saying it’s too little too late.

I saw the old author's advance discourse had kicked off again, after someone on Threads said that a $350k advance for a book actually wasn't all that much, and lots of authors went "I would love to get even half of that" and everyone started arguing, as usual. Two things here...
