I'm having this conversation in every left-oriented space. The reward for doing this work must not be measured in big wins. We must keep going because *it is right and necessary*. Don't expect to get to the mountain top in your life. We are links in an endless chain of liberation.

I do indeed have some thoughts.
A screenshot of an X post asking "people born in 1980-2004, how's life?" followed by two images of Austin Powers. 

The first one is enthusiastic, bearing the caption "Very shagadelic, baby. Yeah."

The second appears more concerned, with the caption "Having said that, I do have some thoughts."

7 panel comic.

Panel 2: 
Red Guy is almost out of the panel. He leans in and says “Enjoy getting left behind, pal”
Yellow Guy replies “ok”

Panel 3:
Yellow Guy stands alone.

Panel 4: 
Close up on Yellow Guy, there is a quiet “huff-huff-huff” noise coming from behind him

Panel 5:
Yellow Guy turns to look behind him

Panel 6: 
Close up on Yellow Guy’s face as if from the point of view of an attacker.
Yellow Guy yells “Jesus Christ”

AI Red Guy is now chasing the Yellow Guy. 
Red Guy: “Use me”
Yellow Guy “No”
Red Guy “USE ME”

There are two big cults of believers in AI right now. 1. The Doomers: "Though shalt believe AI will kill us." Not evidence based. It's an axiom for them. They are a disturbance. 2. The Anthropomorfists: "We think AI should be considered sentient, and should have rights and free will." Short 🧵

I like that in becoming a nazi, you get glowing coverage as a brave iconoclast, and then when you stop being a nazi, you’re get glowing coverage as a brave dissident. Money coming and going. Only way you lose is having normal opinions like “racism bad” bsky.app/profile/trac...

Pompeii is a UNESCO world heritage site not because it was remarkable in its prime, but because it survived to our era untouched: one moment, preserved for all time. But future generations won't know what OUR world was like unless we do the same. This is why we MUST bury Toronto with a volcano

This is a very good point and the thing to understand is that’s not what’s happening on either side. The republicans are identifying all the people they want to target for degradation and a repeal of their civil rights. The democrats are giving a list of who they’re okay to do that to.

"They're not misunderstanding the film; they're co-opting a message"
Screencap from the interview linked in the quoted post

Marlow Stern (the interviewer):  You have one of the most renowned replies in Twitter history. Elon Musk tweeted out, “Take the red pill,” then Ivanka Trump enthusiastically wrote, “Taken!” to him, and then you replied, “Fuck both of you.” I’m curious how you feel about the co-opting of “The Matrix” by those on the right who don’t really seem to understand its messaging.

Lilly Wachowski: I mean, I can’t sit in a room and explain the movie to every single person who watches it. Even if I did sit in a room with Elon Musk and Ivanka Trump — yikes — it doesn’t matter. They’re not misunderstanding the film; they’re co-opting a message. And that’s what fascists do: They co-opt the messages of progressives and use it to their benefit to confuse and obfuscate what is going on and the intention of their ideology. They do it with everything. They do it with Martin Luther King Jr. Look at how they’ve changed the idea of what antisemitism is.

I have a hard time coming up with a better example of a tried and true formula than the Muppet Show. It works spectacularly well, just run it back again. And again. Not forever, but let it run its course until it's time for another breather. It deserves that.

three-panel meme using the "Straight to Jail" scene featuring Fred Armisen's character, Raul, from the television show Parks and Recreation.

In each panel, he speaks passionately in a military-style uniform, gesturing with modified subtitles:

First panel: "You exercise too much? Right to bed."

Second panel: "You exercise too little? Bed, right away, bed."

Third panel: "You exercise the right amount? Believe it or not, bed."

People are turning down highly-paid jobs working on H Potter related productions. They are giving up six/seven-figure sums on principle, because the money raised will be used to harm trans people, including trans children. Yet you can’t give up playing a game, watching a movie or buying a book...?

My neighbor told me ICE keeps deporting his mail-order brides so I asked how many mail-order brides he has and he said he just goes online and gets a new mail-order bride afterwards so I said it sounds like he’s just sending mail-order brides to ICE agents and then his daughter started crying.

absolutely flabbergasting to see people who have so enthusiastically succumbed to despair. like okay denethor, but some of us are gonna actually face the armies of mordor in battle nonetheless.

The thing about Denethor is that he not only succumbed to despair, he wanted to ensure that Faramir succumbed with him. Similarly, a lot of people now are not only succumbing to despair, they're actively proselytizing despair, trying to convince others to join them in their hopelessness. Despair is apparently lonely and they want company in their self-immolation.

btw denethor succumbed to despair bc he was doomscrolling on the palantir. Sauron tweaked his algorithm so he only saw bad news, and he fell into the trap of thinking the world couldn't be saved.

Today is my birthday! Help me celebrate by reposting my art! #art #DazStudio #birthday
Image of a performance on a stage, with glowing hearts showing through heavy smoke effects. The spotlight is on Arivel, a non-binary albino elf. They are wearing heeled shoes, small panties, a corset, and a horned top hat, all in a light purple. They are leaning on a cane, and are radiating confidence. Surrounding Arivel are four backup dancers, all in skimpy clothing and lace masks. Three of the dancers are slender elves, the fourth is a burly troll. The air is filled with heart-shaped confetti.Two demons in the form of slender young men, one yellow and one green, sitting together on a stone block. Green has a spear in his left hand, with a progress Pride flag attached to it. The two are sitting very close, with yellow's hand on green's thigh, and tail snaking around green's body and poking down the front of green's jockstrap. Green is leaning on yellow's shoulder, and showing off his very long tongue. They both seem quite pleased about where this is going.A flock of crows flies through a desolate landscape, the air filled with ash. We're close up to a young man with a caged unicorn's horn sprouting from his forehead, and coarse hair like a horse's mane going down his neck and back. In another life he would have been beautiful, but in this one he is covered in filth, his nails have grown to become claws, blood is running down his chin, and he's grinning to reveal needle-like teeth. He's staring down at a fragile ball of light between his hands, looking cruelly pleased at his precious catch.A young goblin man with green skin and a slim, muscular build hangs from a rope high over a mountainous landscape. He's holding on to the rope securely, using his feet to wrap and lock the rope as he leans out to look at something in the distance, using his free hand to shade his eyes from the bright sun. A flock of birds fly past in the background.
