I think one of the undercurrents of our fractured political reality is that basically everyone has come to realize that the people who rule the world do not possess any particularly impressive level of intelligence or capability

I promise I'll stop subposting after this, but uh, dudes*: can you, like, NOT use the Cornell story to promote your book featuring "strong female characters?" In fact could you not use that story to promote your goddamn book at all please? *"Dudes" in the strongly gendered sense.

Hey I don't know who needs to hear this but not all books are meant to make you feel warm and safe and secure in your convictions, some books are meant to scare you and then make you angry and leave you unsettled, and THAT IS AN OKAY THING FOR A BOOK TO DO.

The "social contagion" thing drives me screaming angry. When I was young I had no clue trans ppl existed. I'd never met anyone trans. I saw cruel caricatures in pop culture occasionally. When I realized trans was a thing someone could be, it hit like a lightning bolt. My life felt newly possible.

Una selección de mis señales favoritas de este tarde en Madrid:

El reverso de una señal de cartón con algunas pegatinas, una con la cara de Ayuso con ojos dibujados como si fuera bizco

Una bandera enorme en el suelo en la Puerta del Sol pintada como un señal de calle en azulejos. Dice, si tocáis lo publico, tomaremos las calles

Una señal en una valla en la Puerta del Sol, con un dibujo de Carapolla. Dice, Almeida dimisión

Una bandera grande colgada en la Puerta del Sol, pintada con un cuadro famoso de Goya al fondo y el texto, Universidad publica

This story is harrowing, still infuriating, and completely relevant to my next book, so of course I have to share it. History is likely strewn with the bodies of women murdered by men for whom their pregnancies were "inconvenient."

What's truly amazing about this clip (and this suit) is that upon first glance I genuinely thought it was a scene from a film circa 1940s or 50s, for no reason other than the fact that suits do not move like this anymore.

being so fr when I say that transmisogyny has put feminism back like 50 years

seravph
what i thought we had distanced ourselves from was the reduction of women to vaginas and wombs and the ability to bear children. i thought we had progressed past 'dresses are for women and pants are for men. i thought we progressed past the idea that someone is less of a woman if she does not adhere strictly to beauty standards. i thought we progressed past the idea that naturally being comfortable adhering to highly feminine standards is vulgar. but i (sarcastically) guess no one could have predicted that trans-exclusive feminism would be the downfall of all the progress we've made

At a certain point you really gotta wonder whether centrist Dems' reluctance to do literally anything that would please the base is because the base wants them to set a precedent that politicians who commit crimes shall be held accountable, and they uh don't wanna, for *reasons*

If you're a Dem who thinks you'll gain something by going anti-trans, look at Gallup's "most important problem" and Fox News' "most important issue" polling and see where trans issues rank. Whoever told you going anti-trans is a savvy or necessary move spends too much time on X and should be fired.

Gallup polling. "LGBTQ rights" moves between 0 and 1%.

Fox news polling. Wokeness/transgender issues at 0%.

I was caught by the local press using my protest sign as a sunshade at the rally for Ceuta Migrants yesterday. (Photo by Davide Barbieri)

Photo of a person in a green tank top seen from the side, at a protest in the Plaza del Sol, Madrid. Their face is mostly obscured by a protest sign reading ¡Muros racistas, al norte-sur, No! They have a tattoo of a cardinal (the bird, not the church official) which identifies the person as little old me.

Think of the combined CENTURIES of expertise lost here, the creativity, the knowledge, the depth and breadth of cultural learning and understanding, the generations of minds enriched and enlightened, the sheer weight of history that led to the establishment of these programmes. Purged. Destroyed.

What on earth is happening?

This had become the new normal. RNLI crew members had been forced to take their permits off their cars after their tyres have been repeatedly slashed. Most of them have been pilloried at the school gates or turned away from local pubs. One man who worked in search and rescue had been beaten unconscious and hospitalised, recognised for TV interviews he had done.
