People getting mad about this probably don’t remember AEDPA, the Anti-Terrorism and Effective Death Penalty Act, which passed the senate by 91-8, and the House 293-133, and was signed into law by Bill Clinton.

I’m in DC scheduled to give this talk today. But the organizers flagged slides in my deck that mention racism, structural gaslighting, New Jim Code and other themes that are off limits in the Land of the Free.

You wanna know my favorite, "did you know it was Jim Crow?" phrase: No Loitering. Sure, the word is older than the United States, but its meaning in the States evolved after Emancipation. When vagrancy laws made Black criminals. "No Loitering" subtly replaced "whites only" in a colorblind way

Most people in the USA have been very willing to allow a great deal of state violence so long as they do not need to witness or experience it regularly. MAGA has used this to push the limit of how much violence the USA will tolerate. There is no reason to think the escalation will stop.

If the Hepatitis B vaccine trial RFK Jr. has funded in Guinea-Bissau were ethical, he’d be doing it in the U.S. Instead, he’s preying on infants in one of the poorest countries in the world, which also happens to have a high prevalence of Hep B. Infants will suffer b/c RFK Jr. is anti-vax.

they always show their asses eventually because the thing is that you cannot truly, sincerely care about women if you don’t care about trans women. the minute you carve off any one subcategory of women you claim are “lesser” in some way, you’ve declared women’s rights to be conditional by definition

Inevitably the discourse turns to "restorative justice," which I think is deeply misunderstood because there is a sort of corporatized version that got copied and pasted as a policy for institutions looking for an easier answer. (Very similar to "anti bias" trainings).

I’m gonna make a general comment here: every person who comes into a Black woman’s mentions to say she doesn’t know her intellectual place thinks that race and gender has nothing to do with it. BUT: The decision not to consider how Black women are targeted before commenting is itself misogynoir.

COVID-19 — not TikTok — is disabling young women "People are so unaware of the myriad conditions COVID-19 can trigger and exacerbate." "Long COVID is a well-documented illness" producing "outcomes like ME, POTS and autoimmune disease" and "increasing risk of heart attacks, strokes and blood clots"
Screenshot of a September 21, 2026 article from The Sick Times headlined “COVID-19 — not TikTok — is disabling young women.” A subheading reads: “‘Sickfluencers’ are symptoms of a mass disabling event.” The article is written by Julia Doubleday. Below the headline is a photo of a young woman with long dark hair wearing a white face mask, teal sweater and black pants, standing outdoors beside a railing with trees in the background.

When you’re chronically ill, you can do everything “right” and still experience setbacks. You can “try harder” and still decline. You can do all the wellness cures, doctor’s appointments and hoop jumping and still suffer. That’s the reality of being disabled.

The worst part of the Assisted Dying debate is people assuming it’s black and white. They think if you oppose the policy, you oppose giving people the choice. I support the right to die. What I don’t support is offering it to disabled people instead of medical treatment.
