EMERGENCY MUTUAL AID REQUEST 🚨 Just broke my middle finger. Unhoused mentally unwell man yelled/ran at us—Hounds immediately protected me. Their leashes snapped my finger, which was also holding a grocery bag. Since UCLA illegally fired me, I have no health insurance. venmo.com/u/JohnathanPerk

Emily was so excited to see that the Legend John Jennings (she asked us to say it that way) had a short window for character commissions, she felt we all needed some joy. Her request: GHOST LIGHT does whatever he and the artist most want. She hopes you'll enjoy the result. @jijennings.bsky.social

Character GHOST LIGHT over a gorgeous abstract background of anger and a starry sky is making two fists, one of which is punching into a little teal light starlight of its own situation.

Emily is very excited to be doing a reading and panel at Fantasycon, and especially celebrating Wolf's Path by @jolantru.bsky.social alongside Wolf, in person. Also, Emily is ready to explore her topic with sensitivity, but also nods to the BFS who clearly noted, "I bet that woman's been drinking."

Fighting Fascism: Through critical evaluation (1/4)

Supremacy / Equality;
Fascism / Jutice and Peace
Policing / Community
Shoot First / Check In First
Permission / Consent
Authority / Respect
Ranking / Connecting
Racism / Intentional Visibility
Misogyny / Gender Inclusivity
Heroism / Bravery
Silence / Storytelling
Following / Evaluating
Decontextualization / Contextualization

Whiteness insists these things are inherently good or bad; they are not: Bias, Gatekeeping, Tax Status, Industry Roles, Group Consensus, Popularity

"Full stop" arguments are often abuse tactics, used to bully followers into willfully ignoring context or asking questions.

marked edebell.com, 20260725

Fighting Fascism: Intentionally see context (2/4)

Red Flags: Monetizing anti-tech without context of racism and misogyny. Pointing to good, skillful, or “quiet” work to silence critique. Need to move on from something that hasn't been addressed.

Tech is an accelerator, not the root. We must be radical. We must address the root. Anti-tech decontextualization is harmful. If racism and misogyny are not their expertise, what experts are they elevating?

Work as deflection / Work as progress
Proving Access to Power: "Humble individuals highlighted / Shifting Power: Community highlighted
Patriarchy holds end control / Patriarchy divested from control

Appeases, Can be undone in a snap / Organized, Builds protections to self-sustain

Fighting Fascism: See gender roles in the Patriarchy (3/4)

Men (as construct) divided into Abusers M1, Complicit (knowingly or willfully ignorant) M2, and Non-complicit ME. Abusers and the complicit praise Docile, Admiring F1 W/QTI (perceived), give access to W/QTI who attack the targets F2, thank W/QTI who accept abuse (of self or others) F3, mark and isolate W/QTI who reject abuse (of self or others) FE. Non complicit men support the women who reject abuse and are marked and ignored by the other men, these are the equalists. Racial layers are complex and always relevant. Marked targets are often attacked by proxy. People can change to the equalist boxes with intentional visibility.

marked edebell.com, 20260725

Fighting Fascism: Watch for conflation (4/4)

They Say / Sometimes They Mean;
Nice, kind, helpful / Silent about abuse;
Relitigate, rehash / Listen to victim
Boundaries / Refusal to address abuse;
Enshittification / Now affecting them;
Improper allyship, heroism / Race Traitor;
Inappropriate / a woman;
Disrespectful / a Black woman;
Does good work / Don't evaluate that;

Pointing out gaslighting is always met with, no you’re gaslighting, which is why we have to turn our evaluation: thought, gut, context, power dynamics—back on.

Intent is not effect. People often believe they’re right when they’re not. It’s why we all need to re-learn evaluation.

What next? Follow and pay BIPOC women and queer voices. Especially ones that feel too intense to you. Listen to them.

It's not true. As I've told you, I've tried to obstruct misogynoir and transphobia and have years of receipts they won't look at. It's clear I can't convince people at this point, so I'm not going to engage. The press will make a plan forward and it clearly can't rely on Ang-NA genre at this point.
