Certain dudes are still upset with me when I said in 2012 that here in the US, being a straight white male is living on the lowest difficulty setting of life. From here on out I'm just going to refer them to these DOGE staffer depositions, and then tell them to go fuck themselves.

Absolutely. But that isn't enough to convince some people to get engaged. Like, yes, solidarity and intersectionality always (and some people don't even get *those* ideas) but I'm just shocked sometimes that stopping cruelty isn't enough on its own.
We should be vigorously opposing these laws and policies because they are cruel and dehumanizing, not just because 'you could be next'.
If that's the argument that gets people off the bench fine, but it should be like the third or fourth thing mentioned if we're being honest.

A black and white photograph of a person with their face covered in fine mud. It's dried over their skin and crackled with thousands of tiny lines and textures. One eye stares directly at you.
From a series I did with my friend @pandaslag.bsky.social who was such a good sport enduring the unexpectedly frigid temps when covered in clay.
We wanted to find the textures and shapes of the desert in the human body. These look amazing printed out big.

It's because he doesn't want to say out loud on the record under oath that DEI is anything that does not focus on straight white men, and they cancelled any program that focused on or benefitted anyone who wasn't straight white and male.
Because that would make him sound like a real piece of shit.
I have three categories: Flicks, Movies, and Films for a reason.
You can't judge a thing just by what it is, but also by what it was intended to be.
Even pure popcorn munchers can only push the suspension of disbelief so far.
If the intended audience is enjoying it, someone did something right

B&W photo of a skinny woman in an evening gown wearing a black mask with eyeholes - not a domino mask shape, but straight lines like a ribbon across her face. The background is black except for a gray pillar behind the woman -- it's a beautifully composed shot.

Hey @proton.me, use these lemons for lemonade and consider offering fungible payment solutions.
The @404media.co story is very valid and important so your users to understand how they can maximize the potential of your services.
If there ever was a meaning to it, Iβm sure that βwe have to kill those little kids for Godβ is exactly what blasphemy is.
I will also say that itβs a bit wild to me that no press freedom organization or professional journalistic association has tried to contact me or even put out a statement here.
I mean Jesus Christ. A little solidarity from institutions would be nice here!
