I literally don’t know a single woman who hasn’t been raped, stalked, groped, harassed, or sexually violated in some way at some point in their life. If you choose to doubt and dox survivors, just know every woman in your life is disgusted by you.

Creepy Meta ad with a potato-like mascot doing yoga next to a house plant, water bottle, and bowl of food. Text reads “Offload the mental load to Muse. Muse schedules your appointments and remembers the small stuff. Less to carry, more room to breathe”Potato mascot thing comes back with workout clothing, weights, and a water bottle. Text reads: “Meet Muse, your adaptive training coach. Muse builds your workouts, tracks your meals, and adjusts when life gets busy. You just show up and train”

This one little detail in @fondalee.bsky.social’s The Last Contract of Isako made me cackle. Books become so much more relatable when you see something and can say “yup, people would absolutely do that. I’ve lived it and that is absolutely what dystopia feels like” 😅
Excerpt from The Last Contract of Isako by Fonda Lee. Highlighted text: Panicked people making a run on portable heaters and o-masks, hoarding food, water, and inexplicably, toilet paper. “Inexplicably, toilet” paper is underlined for comedic effect because let’s face it, that was one of the weirder parts of the pandemic

The claim “RFK Jr. does not fuck chickens” is not an evidence-based claim because studies have not ruled out the possibility that RFK Jr. fucks chickens.

My god, Octavia Butler, just miss ONCE
 Page from a book saying:

From EARTHSEED: THE BOOKS OF THE LIVING
Choose your Leaders with wisdom and forethought.
To be led by a coward is to be controlled
by all that the coward fears.
To be led by a fool is to be led
by the opportunists who control the fool.
To be led by a thief is to offer up your most precious treasures to be stolen.
To be led by a liar
is to ask to be told lies.
To be led by a tyrant is to sell yourself and those you love into slavery.

Reminder that Klingons say TRANS RIGHTS BRING HONOR TO YOUR HOUSE
DS9 scene: Kor, a Klingon, greets Dax as Curzon. Dax corrects him as the host is now in Jadzia, a Trill female. Cor immediately responds, "Jadzia, my beloved old friend" without missing a beat. 

Right: Two tweets from 2019: "This Pride Month, never forget that Klingons had trans rights"; "No hostility, no confusion, no clumsy excuse-filled justification, just a quick self-correction and the exact same amount of love and respect before and after. Cis allies: Be like Kor."

It’s the first of June, the beginning of Pride month. Stonewall was a riot. Trans rights are human rights. No one gets to erase us from history. Fight back against book bans. Fuck anybody who thinks we don’t deserve love or bodily autonomy. They don’t get to steal our joy.

New — I wrote about how journalists proudly using AI to help them write their stories obscures the deeply human process that makes journalism a societal necessity, and one that feeds the soul of those who create it. Hope you’ll give it a read. I promise I wrote the whole thing.

4. -Even if you think you're going out of your way not to put "politics" into your work, you are. Who you are in the world, what you think of it, and what you aspire to say your work is *inherently* a social/political stance. Writers can't help but be "political" because all writing is commentary.
