Choosing to not watch a TV show isn't censorship. JK Rowling will say that it is. It isn't.

The fact that the government is using charges of antisemitism to justify sending people to concentration camps is the most enraging manipulation of discourse that the current fascists have engaged in thus far. They’ll live out their Nazi fantasies all while claiming they are doing it for the Jews.

Just clarifying, though this is not difficult to grasp: Anyone working on an industry project with a notorious transphobic bigot is OK with transphobic bigotry. The end.

We've reached the point in our descent into fascism where the Jewish governor's house getting firebombed on Passover by a guy trying to bash his head in with a sledgehammer is overshadowed by the story of the President saying he wants to build foreign gulags for US citizens.

I take off my blindfold. Before me is a gory tableau of death and destruction, bodies strewn across the landscape. The piñata is unscathed.

It boils my piss that the news stories are continuously 'are we over-diagnosing mental health problems?' rather than 'oh my God what have we DONE to ourselves that SO many people are SO profoundly unhappy and anxious and unwell?'

We watched people standing in line for 8-10 hours to vote in Georgia, so they made it illegal to give them water. They called in bomb threats to majority Black polling places. They did everything they could to suppress the vote. And then folks are out here like, "well Georgia voted for this lol"

Yeah, that sounds radical as hell!

If by "feeling chipper" you mean "feeling like feeding certain people into a wood chipper," then yeah, you could say I'm "feeling chipper".

Perioidic reminder that the reason you didn't see autistic people with intellectual disabilities on the street five decades ago was not because they didn't exist. It's because they were sent away to institutions and their parents were told to put away pictures of them.

this is an unsurprisingly good piece because miles does reliably excellent work and a thing that does not escape my notice is that when @rollingstone.com has conversations about trans people & trans issues, they have them *with* trans people or have trans writers lead them.

having grown up in the 70s and 80s, it blows my mind that people are now calling the idea that men are just inherently better at things like darts, chess, and fencing “feminism.”

oh so they’re going to claim it’s vaccines then eliminate them, that’s what they mean

Fired for not bullying a child. Insane.

How I feel about the state of things:

it was the worst of times, its was the wow somehow it keeps getting worse of times

Discworld QOTD, from Monstrous Regiment "The presence of those seeking the truth is infinitely to be preferred to the presence of those who think they've found it."

You can tell who the Good Guys are because they're the ones smashing a car window to drag a mother away from her child while wearing ski masks.

The only gang violence we ever see is from ICE

HE IS THE CHOSEN ONE!

Members of Congress should never be allowed to trade stocks. Period.

The worst torture I can imagine for that man is to send him away somewhere and treat him like just a regular person. No extra attention, no special privileges. Just another guy.

You know who else etc etc.

we're going to clone actual direwolves before george r. r. martin finishes the winds of w—hm? what's that?
