worth remembering, David Lynch directed “fix your hearts or die” specifically at transphobes. it wasn’t a generic “no mean people allowed” statement, it was said by his Twin Peaks character in defense of a trans woman he cared for and deeply respected.
I am increasingly convinced that “apolitical“ means “I‘m kind of dumb, sorry.”
we keep operating like trump flipped some kind of switch to make the gop more misogynistic and racist but this path has been clear since the 50s. you dont get here without goldwater, reagan, nixon, the bushes and mccain/romney. trump didnt come out of nowhere. the monster was always there.
Let’s get one thing straight: We are not a Christian nation. We are a nation where you are free to be a Christian.
Your religion guides you, not all of us. It’s as simple as that.

Historian of French Revolution here to say that in periods like this, squeamish compromisers do as much to drive radicalization as do ideologues. If you keep making excuses for the unfit king, eventually folks come for you and him.
If you're scared of protesting or a general strike because you could lose your job, healthcare, and housing, or even go to jail, now you understand why the US has no universal healthcare or housing and no guaranteed parental leave, but DOES have the largest prison and police system on planet Earth.
let's see if I've got this straight
the war is over, pretty much
except if we want to bomb iran some more, or israel does
or if iran decides to keep the strait closed
also the regime didn't change and we didn't accomplish anything but blowing up a bunch of kids and poisoning tehran
ok good work

I’m a grown man who works for the president of the United States who is afraid to not wear the shoes he bought me that do not fit
people have got to realize that we are not getting Medicare for All without taxing the middle class. we are not getting free child care without taxing the middle class. we are not getting better schools and free college without taxing the middle class.
I make $95,000 a year. raise my taxes, please.

And now it is my mission in life for everyone to know how fucked up white evangelical Christianity is :) I will talk shit about it until I’m dead!!!!!
The final straw was visiting the independent Baptist church I grew up in when I went back to NC to plan my wedding. I sat listening to the sermon and all of a sudden I was just like…….yea I don’t believe any of this any more.
Learning Hebrew & Greek in college really messed with the whole evangelical “Biblical inerrancy” thing… I still remember the first time I looked up a word in the lexicon only to see “meaning dubious” and was like…wait, how can this be perfect but also we don’t know what some of these words mean???
I don’t think Trump and his people are capable of engineering “distractions,” I think the mind-numbing chaos we see every day is straightforwardly the result of giving the dumbest, cruelest, most corrupt, most selfish people of a generation near-unmitigated power
Every time I open a news app or site and this story isn’t being discussed or featured prominently I feel like I’m losing my mind. Do not look away.
worst day of the year. hour stolen from night time given to the smug idiot breakfast eaters. the rise and shine clowns
Season 4 was like……….wow, knowing as much as I do about Epstein makes this even more of a gut punch to watch!!!
This International Women's Day, please remember that trans women are women. Full stop. No qualifiers.
Oh hell yea brother!!!!
LOL that is soooooo real, I do feel like watching it is like pressing on a bruise in a way….
The best part is that learning more about it strengthens my previous opinion, which was “wow this shit is so fake”
Watching Industry really has me out here googling shit like “how does the stock market work” and “what is a short”
i don't care about any arguments against this. right now the sum total of my political advocacy is: crush the Republicans and make them pay. i don't care what comes after because until we do that nothing better is possible.
Ok well I know what I’m adding to my watchlist now!
I maintain that simply arresting Elon musk and making a real example of him is the quickest way to global stability
