I say this all the time privately. It is really under appreciated and researched my hypothesis that much of Republican politics, anti-Black racism and manosphere stuff is not so secretly a proxy for insecurity about "shoe size."

You cant feel insecure about a marginalized person taking your job cause they have more qualifications than "born to rich daddy" if you ban us from public life after all.

I think generally a lot of powerful people do violence to reassert to their fragile egos that they are correct in their hierarchical position, and that often an underlying deep seated fear that those they were taught were lessers might be as good as them makes them believe we must be removed.

I don't think grammarly should just get to do "sorry deleting now" after ventriloquizing living and dead people without their consent to make money

Target I'm sorry that was a breakup not just a boycott baby.

Like ever 2 years, straight men find a way to reinvent masculinity with even MORE standards than the ones they already weren’t meeting and then get mad at the rest of us for not coddling them through it.

Showing Up for Racial Justice how do you square your claims that he is anti-racist and your endorsement with Graham Platner saying that Black people don't tip among other things?

This is so so upsetting. So Grammerly is violating the memory of bell hooks AND making AI versions of the rest of us before we're even dead. Someone tell me who to sue, not even joking.

I look at two different performances of masculinity and what each can tell us about how masculinity is making you miserable

Red Flag Alert - Anti-Trans Genocide in the USA - #3 | Lemkin Institute

The Lemkin Institute has issued a *THIRD* trans genocide warning, noting the next stage is widespread containment - and this was before the 4th Circuit ruled today that states can essentially do whatever they want to make trans people "appreciate their sex".

Hell, we are currently fighting a LITERAL WAR motivated by racism.

"You're not being nice enough to white people" or "you call too many things racist" are a fucking joke. We don't call nearly enough things racist to be honest.

I mean, I agree but none of these motherfuckers crowing about the trolley problem have EVER read the fucking paper and have the most facile, the most asinine grasp of the problem and its implications and they’ve driven interpretation of it.

i truly do not understand how people can see that the united states as a whole has been overtaken by an unpopular minority and that queer/marginalized folks deserve support to effect change, not blanket abandonment

but are unable to see that same logic applied to individual states

man, I live in Austin, I have loved ones here (mostly queer/marginal folks!) and I still cannot escape the notion that so many people I respect and also care about outside this state believe, in their heart of hearts, that me and my people are bigoted and deserve to die simply for living here

This is important if you don't want visa or MasterCard to tell you how to spend your money.

i only mention this because of a few replies i see written as if the problem is the trump admin being too lazy or incompetent to bother coming up with a good plan: there is no possible good plan. "don't provoke iran into closing the strait" is the plan, if you're past that you're fucked

shout-out to the tumblr ads of AI ladies in thongs, legs spread, flashing front and center.

yknow, the same tumblr that will shadow ban accounts that post any two remotely round shapes next to each other.

Tbf I grew up in a city that built its own lake, and when I was little they drained it and dug it deeper, and that did take like a year or so. Having not played the game yet, have umbrella (Im assuming) been doing that for a couple of decades since re2 or did they just start?

NDP MP Lori Idlout crossing floor to Liberals, PM Carney two seats shy of majority Nunavut NDP MP Lori Idlout has crossed the floor to join the Liberals, according to NDP interim leader Don Davies.

Floorcrossers should have to sit as independents until the next election. Voters in these ridings didn't vote for Liberals.

But the one thing most Canadian MPs seem to agree on is that they don't owe their voters shit.

11.03.2026 03:56 πŸ‘ 61 πŸ” 15 πŸ’¬ 4 πŸ“Œ 1

The NDP also needs to start vetting its candidates more thoroughly. An NDP MP who's willing to join a right wing party, which is unequivocally what the Liberals are now, should be setting off huge alarm bells.

I hope that Vic, Zach, Anna and Jacob get a SAG card and health insurance out of acting like fools for TV cops.

Fuck that was rough to watch.
