No but seriously that's way too many instances of dancing to the tune of far-right actors over just a couple weeks and. When do we try and set the beat instead of falling for it every single fucking time? On Geller *every article* should account for the original tweets being from a right-winger!

Yeah sure feels great reading post after post after post about the evils of male spaces when you're still fucked up by being bullied out of the *one* gay space you had a kinda somewhat partially conditional uneasy place in. But hey, don't expect traumatized people to be nuanced, that's mean

My third novel, HERO COME HOME, officially has a cover! Preorderable from the usual places us.macmillan.com/books/978125...

The cover of my third novel, HERO COME HOME. Four human figures centred, the main image being that of a bearded man looking back over his shoulder (that's Oro, the protagonist), with a circle of symbols behind him. We can see a swan and a key. In the foreground are three people: two women, one with a mysterious marking? scar? who knows!? on her cheek and the other carrying a sword, flanking an older, balding man holding up a pistol. The possibly-scarred woman looks ever so slightly amused, and that is certainly very like her. Everybody else is not happy to be here, or indeed, anywhere

Tidigare partisekreterare för V har en poäng när hon säger att de rödgröna är fast i en gammal förhandlingskultur. Man väntar ut och förnedrar varandra. Alliansen däremot förstod att ett samarbete kräver goda arbetsrelationer. Man lade all politik på bordet och letade efter sådant som förenade.

The best part of working on disability justice is that your stance on petty warfare between LGBTQIA+ groups can just be "You're all a bunch of ableist pricks and I hate everyone". Nice and simple, definitely not miserable

... It's be good for people to remember that Twitter's full of Nazis and that Geller is Jewish while handling those SA allegations. The ResetEra thread is an horror of amateur detective "work" with absolutely zero consideration for potential survivors. What a nightmare

Always especially funny to read how LLMs are gonna replace all programmers when you're writing a report about how every single seemingly-promising-feature has blown up in your face over the past nine months or so. (Not because I'm incompetent, the tech stack is just THAT cursed)

Very good read here, though I wish it got into two things IMO essential to analyzing selling panic and resisting toxic nihilism: - A tendency by US trans journalists / pundits to steamroll over international voices when covering events in other countries; - A more recent plague we DID give up on!

Good example of "be against for the right reasons". Anyone still taking precautions today will have a VERY complicated relationship to "trusting experts" - I sure do, tack Anders jävla Tegnell - but this isn't it. This isn't it at all

Fact that within a midterm cycle much of the Republican Party and the political apparatus around it dove into repealing segregation orders and debating the role of Indian people in public life is a huge indictment of the “woke went too far” idea but again acknowledging that means self reflection.

Seeing convos to the tune of "why didn't you say something" and I really need to blog that "Reply vs Reply All model of allyship" concept I coined well over a decade ago because I think it's a really catchy name for something important. Assuming people still know how email works, that is

When the LLM messes up a household task, I don't think it's going to be like when "rogue" "agents" "infiltrate" a company or whatever. I think someone actually will be held responsible for managing the LLM properly in the domestic sphere. And I think we know who.

The Disney renaissance movies used to look different. They were planned to be printed on 35 mm film -- that's how they were first released. Modern editions skip that last step in the process. It was a highly developed, overlooked craft, as we explore: animationobsessive.substack.com/p/disneys-fi...

I'd ask what the fuck is wrong with the Swedish socdems but we all know what the answer to that is - they've long since become a party more interested in power at all costs than in social-democracy, and that ironically means giving up on power if they need to yield to the left

Seconding this. Work was my relaxation place (yep.) because I otherwise have to fight in *every* social space I try to exist in. Now I have to fight at work where I am ALSO the most vocal person who dares speak up despite the risk yada yada. Feels pretty fucking bad.

Where I can KINDA (keep reading) see the point is for "better than nothing" scripts and tools.

Coalition MARGINS | James Baldwin on Being Gay in America

A friend linked me a James Baldwin interview from 1984, "Go the Way Your Blood Beats", and it hits so many very sharp points. On already being marginalized before sexuality comes into it. On the dangers of the enemy's frame. On the world also belonging to you. coalition.org.mk/archives/993...
