Right, there has to be a way to discuss harmful views honestly. If, say, leftists didn’t directly address the beliefs of bigots in a way that was honest about what they believe, it would be indicative of a flaw in our ability to reckon with those ideas. Not that thats what Jubilee is doing.

Gosh, the sneed thing makes me so sad. I’m closeted to most people, and sometimes I just wish a trans person I encounter would just know, so maybe I’d have someone to talk to. Why do we have to be ashamed of ourselves? Why am I?

I wonder if some of these “4tran” style posts I’ve been seeing are astroturfed. So many of them seem to want to lead trans people to ending it or detransitioning, and have lowkey conservative undertones.

This used to be my least favorite song on the album because I was like “ehh it’s basic” BUT after a while I realized I was the basic one (in the sense that being prissy and pretentious is it’s own form of basic) and this song grew on me and is now one of my favorites of hers.

How people respond to this is really telling. Guys, there is a difference between complicity, culpability, and innocence. These are all separate words for a reason. June was right to take this back, but Israelis are *complicit.* Specific word.

Often, people who want to be someone else’s full-time pet also hate authority, and I think that’s interesting. …why are you looking at me like that? No, not me! I’d… I’d never…

Ok Vonnegut’s Breakfast of Champions has injured my heart. I was into this one much more than Slaughterhouse Five.

Reading Vonnegut’s Breakfast of Champions after reading Nietzsche’s Genealogy of Morality is a trip. I see Nietzsche all over this shit.

This reply I wrote shouldn’t be shocking to anyone. The reality here mirrors the reality in all professional spaces. If your opinion aligns with capital, it’s safer for you to take risks and be noticed. If it doesn’t, you are a target, or at risk of becoming one.

There is also fear about being percieved as biased. When you are a local news station you *do* need to report what officials are doing and saying, and work with people on both sides, and if they decide they don’t like you and what you say, they won’t talk to you, and make it so you can’t do your job

I think this definitely plays a role. I also think a lot of them believe that if you show two sides next to each other in a neutral, honest, and informative way, that the public will be able to discern on their own which one is bunk. This is not the case.

If integrity was consequentialist, the word wouldn’t be describing something about a single person. Also no one would have integrity if, in order to have it, they had to be 100% correct about everything they believed. The main point here is to draw a line between how these two types operate.

This results in a cycle of amplifying radical and genocidal voices, and silencing marginalized voices.

I work in local news, which is very different from national news, but any issue that has a left/right divide has a similar kind of pattern that’s painful to watch. I had too much to say for a single post so I did it as a screenshot.
I've noticed that the journos that have progressive views on gender personally, have strong integrity, but value a false philosophy of journalistic
"neutrality" that requires getting both sides everywhere, no matter what, whereas journos that are conservative have less integrity, are more willing to portray only one slanted view they like. Why is it like this... idk, but conservative journos feel more comfortable doing this, while others act like they have to be extremely cautious.

You ever notice how many neurotypical people regard neurodivergent people as an unnecessary, but amusing accessory to their experience of the world (which is assumed the default experience)

To all neurotypical people: I like it when you are nice, but most of you are not, can you work on that? I lowkey trust none of you because I can’t tell what you think, or have an honest conversation with yall.

People talkin’ a lot about how rising diesel fuel prices effects food and delivery cost, but one *other* thing it effects is the cost of public school, because… kids ride da bus (This was being discussed at a school board meeting I was at recently)

This. Games need to either be a piece of art that has a start and end, or they need to be a platform people can use to be creative in their own right. Forever games and grindey games where people play them to get records… it doesn’t make sense to me

There *were* positive sides, tbh. Like, my parents were right that my backwoods Indiana elementary school wasn’t handling my situation well, because their solution was to stick me in a tiny room all day like solitary confinement.

There is a terrible secret third thing where they take you out of school when the school tries to tell them, you get homeschooled from 2nd grade on, never learn any masking skills at all, they try and teach you young-earth creationism, and make you watch glenn beck segments for your education

Why can't people be comfortable with dissonance? It's a fact of life. We don't have to be blanketly "for" or "against" the pope. Guy can say good things sometimes, and do bad things other times. We can fight against bad things? When did saying a good thing once make him immune to future critique?

When I wanted to, as a teenager, it was different, but I remember I told myself “I gotta hold out for my favorite band’s next album” which was taking a while to come out. By the time it was released I was in a much better spot. youtu.be/uTxOddsc0UA?...

I do like this sentiment! I think it’s also weirdly the root of my issue? It’s not that I don’t enjoy the content of life. Rather, I think I’m so adhd I don’t *get* to live. I have to believe I will get that sorted out, so I can do something I enjoy for once. Also to transition fully.

I was ideating on the timeline, sorry about that. Pretty cringe. Weird thing that made me feel better: I was like “I’ll just give it a decade and see if I still want to then.” Like, in a decade things will definitely be better off, and if they aren’t… well maybe it will be worth it to consider.

I don’t like how there are trans people who look down on other trans people for being openly queer, for not wanting to eventually “cease to be trans” and just pass, never to mention it again Not only is it exclusionary of nonbinary people, it’s also sad to think of queerness as something shameful.

Like, now they have permission not to be kind to me for some reason? Like I am to blame? As though I’m not also neurodivergent, and should somehow know better than act the way I do? Someone I worked with flat-out told me they disliked me because I was homeschooled. We were both adults.

Many of the behaviors of homeschoolers that are *noticed* are just behaviors of neurodivergent people. You often won’t know that someone is HS’d if they’re neurotypical, they will seem normal and not announce it. Often people will totally reinterpret their view of me when they learn this about me

Harbinger of Spring ♥️ @harbingerofspring.bsky.social · 17/09/2026
It’s not ok to make fun of homeschoolers like this. To start, homeschoolers are victims, but their situation is usually more complicated than just being made “weird” by being homeschooled. They are often neurodiverse, with parents that didnt like how schools handled it youtube.com/shorts/S5UD2...

Doing even *one* thing to change my appearance to match my gender was HUGE for me and enabled me to begin making tons of other changes. It’s all happening now. I never believed I truly had agency in my life and now I almost do, which is a big deal.

To simply go back to the same attitude the master class had prior to being poisoned by priestly influence doesn’t prevent the inevitable rise of another ascetic impulse. Neither ethos is sustainable on its own. It’s fascinating how prescriptive N’s language can be without prescribing anything.
000
Harbinger of Spring ♥️ @harbingerofspring.bsky.social · 16/09/2026
I think the most interesting parts here were left to the reader to wonder about, like how the master class doesn’t need asceticism… it makes me wonder if a certain kind of stagnation wouldn’t be inevitable if the lower classes hadn’t sought some explanation and coping mechanism for their suffering.

Finished Genealogy of Morality! Here are some of my initial thoughts: Tbh I’m struggling to remember what in this text wasn’t in Beyond Good and Evil. This felt tighter, and maybe coming at some of the same ideas but in reverse.
