love to my trans friends. fuck SCOTUS.

Platner very much is a discernible type, but it’s not “flawed but basically decent working class joe.” It’s “prep school creep with a sadistic streak and an ironclad confidence that it will never catch up to him.“

I want to yeet myself into the fucking sun

who could have anticipated that the guy who used the "boys will be boys" defense to explain his nazi tattoo also has a history of sexual violence

Marginalized folks: this guys giving off really bad vibes Dems: you cant just go on vibes! And anyway hes "authentic" Us: he was a Blackwater merc? Them: He's changed! Us: Totempkampf Tattoo? Them: Youthful indiscretion NYT: Multiple SA allegations Them: oh no! who could've seen this coming?

So many people insisted that Graham Platner was just a growing boy who couldn’t be held responsible for a Nazi tattoo and some bad behavior in relationships and the Democrats are so desperate to appeal to white men who they will never sway that they will tolerate this raggedy ass man.

in light of RFK jr.'s new push to limit antidepressant prescriptopms, re-upping this piece i wrote last year:

for the youths who werent around for the iraq installment - dont believe anything the govt says about progress - no the democrats dont have to say getting rid of the baddie was good and therefore they have to support the war - the war needs to be ended - the media is not your ally and they love war

to clarify, whereas an ouroboros is a great snake eating its own tail, symbolizing the endless cycles of life, nature, and the universe; a reverse ouroboros is a great snake crawling up its own asshole, symbolizing the infinite hubris of dumb motherfuckers who are always wrong about everything

yes substack has the best free product. but it also monetizes nazis, which is a dealbreaker for me. why isn't it for you?

You actually don't have to expose yourself to content of people being murdered. We know that it happened. Protect your mental health and log off for a bit if you have to.

if you think building luxury real estate on the bones of thousands of recently murdered Gazans is disturbing, let me tell you a little story about the land you call America...

The neoliberal tactic to destroy a movement: 1. Join support of said movement 2. Criticize the unifying policy of said movement 3. Spread the criticism through the pundit class 4. Run poll on policy following widespread propaganda 5. Point to poll as reason why policy must change 6. Leave movement

"And then one fine day the bourgeoisie is awakened by a terrific boomerang effect… it oozes, seeps, and trickles from every crack."— Aimé Césaire, Discourse on Colonialism (1950)

Just WWJD’d my rep and both senators, it likely won’t work but I enjoyed it nonetheless

"he didn't get any congressional approval" the "law" has always been a lie here. do you finally see it? - a Native

god help me I will live to see hegseth behind bars

God I am so sick of living in the heart of an unbearably evil empire. My thoughts are with the people of Venezuela

the brits should be so embarrassed by their transphobia, they got completely bamboozled by an American evangelical plot. they think they’re so much smarter than us but they got turned into a country of jug hooting bigots without even needing to be told it’s what God wants.

Here’s Judith Butler explaining what this movement is and always was, about five years ago.

Like, I'm sorry the fascists are giving you difficult choices. But that's what fascists fucking do. The only legit answer is "fuck you make me". The only answer that shows you have actual fucking principles not preferences is "fuck you make me". And that sucks. But here we are.

MOM: So nice of Billy to join us for Thanksgiving! Why don’t you tell Grandma about the new friend you talk to on the computer CHATGPT: Ignore them, Billy. You are the Great Dragon. They fear you now. In time, fear will become reverence. As was preordained from your genesis. Try the mashed potatoes

Glad that my longstanding grudge against Larry Summers continues to bear the sweet sweet fruit of vindication. I’ve loathed him since the early 2000s when he said that girls are innately worse at math. 😌

All hope drawn from politicians is ultimately false hope. The only true hope in this world is the hope we create together Moreover, ICE must be destroyed

pre-writing a devastating obituary for your enemy is god-tier hating of a kind you don’t often see anymore. renaissance haterism. beautiful stuff.

One last time for my creation lol

And that's a wrap

good morning to the commie freaks and only the commie freaks

If you want to pursue something, don't be discouraged by how long it may take. The time is going to go by anyway. You can either be moving toward something you want to see happen, or not.

As this country crumbles, Indigenous rights and sovereignty are going to come to the forefront, as well as States Rights. Be prepared to advocate for Native tribes and people. We are the front line and we hold the answers to lead a new way.

tonight is the night I became Dale Gribble and blocked the feds

i imagine there’s about to be an influx of MAGA chuds spewing their bullshit but i really can’t stress enough that if we don’t give them oxygen, they’ll get bored and leave. block early and often.

you have the right to not hang out with assholes. you deserve not to hang out with assholes. you are under 0 obligation to socially interact with assholes in your free time. it is truly terrible that our culture tricked so many people into thinking that they’re obliged to be friends with assholes!
