For me, the hardest thing about stories like the Cornell gang rape case isn’t reading the initial details—although that is hard. What’s even harder is when men online, especially the journalists and pundits, start trying to combat the feminist outrage by purposefully seeding doubt and victim-blaming

@moeperiod.bsky.social is coming to my town next Spring, so stoked. Love the newest album, and they are playing so well right now. It's been a few years, so a very welcome bright spot to today. 🤘

I tried ice dying some shirts awhile back, most turned out very sub par. Anyone know a particular how-to on YT or the interwebs you'd suggest? There's a ton out there, but looking for some that come recommended. Also this isn't for resale, just want to do some as a family project on my birthday.

HJR 4 is on your ballot in November, but it was NOT put there by the people of Idaho. It was placed on the ballot by the Legislature, and the goal is to convince you to surrender your voting rights on a sweeping range of issues related to drugs and medicine. No on HJR 4!

I resigned from ExxonMobil today. I spent the last three years doing fossil fuel extraction research at both BP and ExxonMobil. Neither company is acting responsibly. They are racing to maximize extraction while the window to act closes, and gambling with our lives. More below.

I used to retell my stories from that day. I have them, of course. Everyone does. But as someone who didn’t lose anyone, or wade through the smoke, I’m particularly concerned, in this historical moment, about avoiding any sense of nostalgia about victimhood in the heart of empire.

As we approach midterms, starting now, be careful on these social media streets. Bots and trolls and disinfo accounts can pretend to be on any side, at first. Trust the instincts you've built up on twitter and now here. Even, and especially, when you see a bunch of the same-worded replies on posts.

There should be public dialogue from Dem leaders about what the medium-long term political strategy against Trumpism is. They don't want impeachment (not enough votes) so what can a Dem congress do that's more effective? Is there a philosophy other than "Vote for us and hope something good happens?"

Because apparently this needs to be said- Rape is caused by rapists. • Not short skirts • Not flirting • Not drinking alcohol • Not ‘mixed signals’ • Not a person’s dating history • Not "leading someone on” No amount of excuses removes responsibility from the RAPIST.

A stellar cluster deep in the heart of the Milky Way. A real image from JWST, it looks like a matte painting from a sci-fi film.
Swirls of dust and gas in shades of blue and red, with brighter groups of stars glowing orange, form a tapestry of light and dark. The black polygon at the lower right is missing data from the scene.

Reminder that the Golden Age of Comics began in 1938 when a couple of Jews started making stories about fighting evil. So many of the people in power now seen so much like cartoon villains bc those archetypes were literally created after some of the most horrific human beings of our known history.
