Apparently shouting down a trans woman for the world's mildest criticism is allyship. Real ones remember he doubled down on his ableist tweet and only apologized when his Jeopardy gig was on the line. White men (especially those who think they're smart) really can't handle an OUNCE of opposition.
ThemThe ‘Jeopardy!’ host made it absolutely clear where he stands once again.
I don't want to add to any ratios here, but there have been a few incidences of 'I am deeply saddened and shocked at the reaction to the death of [X very nefarious journalist and proven abuser]' Yes, that's kind of the point. These responses act as a warning and deterrent against abusing your power.
Kate WatsonOnce again for those at the back: ‘Don’t speak ill of the dead’ is about your great aunt Elsie, who liked a long gin with a short tonic at elevenses, and blew your inheritance money betting on the horses. Speaking ill of absolute monsters is a moral obligation, actually.
Here is a quote that I love: "There are two things in this world - life and baseball - and one helps you get through the other."
Hey is it good for democracy when an illegal secret police force operating on the orders of a wannabe dictator tracks down its critics
Tween- and teenaged me would have been so so thrilled to have a women's professional baseball league, and I'm going to see how being a Queens fan fits. (I promised myself no more West Coast teams, but some promises need to evolve.)
Now I'm wondering if a teacher could sell a kid to the fae - on the one hand we kept being lectured on how they were "in loco parentis", on the other, we did have to get forms signed for various things.
i had to file a copyright violation against ron filipkowski's company meidas plus back in january for stealing one of my videos not sure why anyone is consuming the content these people put out, deeply unethical thieves all across the board, i'm hardly the only one they've done this too
Ron FilipkowskiOnly Lindell would try to bribe voters with a shitty pillow.

here's a fun lil exercise for cis people: how many articles would a publication have to print calling for your extermination before you would expect people who care about you to stop giving them money? and how would you feel if their excuse for still supporting them is some fuckass crossword puzzle?
“You’re a huge fan of Lord of the Rings, how come you don’t like Palantir?” “You’re a huge fan of 1984, how come you don’t like the surveillance state?” “You’re a huge fan of Fahrenheit 451, how come you don’t like ritual book burnings?”
John ScalziEvery now and then someone takes a run at me along the lines of "I don't understand why you, a scifi writer, don't appreciate 'AI'," and I'm all, motherfucker, it's *because* I'm a science fiction writer I have the positions I have, how many times do we have to fucking yell "torment nexus," my dude
Also not forgetting the lovely BIPOC Sex Workers who helped make it happen. As “distasteful” as many consider them, Sex Workers, like Furries and Trans folks, are often signs of a healthy online ecosystem, since they embrace bodily autonomy and all that entails. Also, there’s a lot of crossover. ❤️
That said, let us take a moment to thank our Bluesky Trans and Furry Elders for freaking out Jack Dorsey so much he bolted and left us this nice social media playground, taking most of his crypto chuds with him. We thank you for your service.
When we talk about who gets the privilege to get to the starting line of athletic competition being a political decision, this is what we mean.
Gillian BranstetterAn initiative on the ballot in Washington state in November would require all athletes seeking to play girl's sports from kindergarten to high school to undergo "genetic screening, a testosterone-levels test, or an examination of their reproductive anatomy" before they can play
Alt: RFK Jr. says, "Dana, you probably don't understand this because you're not a scientist." Dana: "Well, you're not, either." (The only appropriate response.)
Molly Jong-FastHe’s a roadkill enthusiast not a scientist

Sky KalkmanNow I want to know if the welcome hug is the same as the traded hug.

Preach Bobby O! Jose Iglesias was a huge intangible. It’s insane that Stearns didn’t understand that.
