Good visualisation work by Caroline Pyae of @dvbenglish.bsky.social mapping out the massacres in Myanmar by the Juta's forces by type, location & much more. It's horrifiying but really important to remind ourselves why we must support the Peoples of Myanmar to utterly remove this murderous regime

THE DATA BEHIND MYANMAR’S MASSACRES
This project documents massacres against civilians attributed to the Myanmar military and affiliated forces. Here, a massacre means one incident in which at least five civilians were killed.

Transphobic rot has truly spread and taken root in the minds of the media because they're trying to make "social contagion" stick for every issue from menopausal women who want hormone treatments to the right-wing demographic panic. When all you have is a hammer, everything looks like a tranny.

And you never once see the "I disagree with what you're saying but I'll fight to the death for your right to say it" people coming out in support of anarchists that are silenced unconstitutionally. It's why I've never believed America strives for "free speech." Because the evidence says otherwise.

I hope everyone sees this for what it is. They make it illegal to be anarchist. Despite the First Amendment. They don’t criminalize being a Democrat or a “Democratic Socialist” because those things aren’t real threats to their power. Y’all “go high.” It does nothing. We exist and they imprison us.

My mom rented Troll for me when I was like 5 (the original, not Troll 2) thinking it was just a fantasy movie. I remember the scene where the troll used its magic ring or something to scratch a guy's hand open, and branches started bursting out of the wound, eventually turning him into a tree.

That goes especially for popular people and celebrities. If you're a big enough celebrity we need to make you feel like there's a target on your back, the weight of the well-being of everyone's eyes on you, and if you can't handle that you don't get to be a celebrity.

When we're talking about non-carceral accountability for abusers this is what we mean--your actions follow you. It is the right of everyone who knows of you to know what dangers you potentially pose, in addition to whatever you may or may not do to communicate you've neutralized those dangers.

Not everyone chooses to be widely known but he did; if he was not well known the surfacing of his history would not have had the effect of potentially retraumatizing his victim, and every survivor who trusted that he was as nice a guy as he presented when they enjoyed his work.

Regardless of whether Geller is honest about his version of events, he chose not to disclose his actions at any point in becoming an internet celebrity, and like most celebrities abdicated responsibility for how that amplifies the effects of everything he does.

Liberal "abolitionists" really believe in this absurd binary. There really needs to be a deep accounting for everyone involved in twisting anarchism's "fire to the prisons!" into "the only alternative to prisons is forgiveness and forced silence." (Hint: a fuck ton of Christians were involved.)

I think it is evidence of how so much we have been made to think that gaining an audience is the goal of life in this attention-seeking economy that saying "a rapist shouldn't seek a public persona that is available for consumption" is taken as equivalent to saying they "can never rejoin society."

How about "No one should get the patent because IP is an evil that already killed millions of people." (and the same by the way also applies to things purely invented by humans)? Though of course a publication related to the institution that factually killed Aaron Swartz likely would never get that.

People w Long COVID are stigmatized & ignored throughout society. In prison, it's a situation of almost total silence. Despite very high COVID infection rates, there's no talk abt Long COVID cases. That's a result of the way prisons treat medical needs in general. thesicktimes.org/2026/09/29/i...

I interviewed five people with Long COVID in prison. They are invisible in the system. - The Sick Times
While there are no data sources on Long COVID in prison, experts suspect rates of the disease may be higher there than in the general population. They face high reinfection risks and poor access to me...

Covid damage is cumulative. The part that “feels like a cold or flu” isn’t the long term damage, and every time you allow your body to catch covid it piles more on the “maybe long covid will take effect this time” load. I think most people don’t know they already have long covid.
