There’s a post making the rounds instructing folks to use leaf blowers to blow tear gas back into ICE goons’ faces and the first comment under it was a warning against blowing leaves because animals need them for nesting. I cannot believe they just let us access this website for free wow

Just remembered the time I attended a goth show and a girl approached me and told me that her mom, who she had brought along, had referred to me as “that hippie girl,” making the argument that she and I were the only *real* goths there because we “just wanna be comfortable and we don’t give a shit”

a little louder for the cheap seats in the back

One of the biggest myths is that men rape by mistake. Like, "Oh, they need consent training." But research is very clear: Sexual violence is not a mistake. It is an intentionally made decision by people who know they don't have consent. They just don't prioritize consent over things like status, power, domination, and sexual gratification.
For my research, I got a certificate of confidentiality from the National Institutes of Health, so my notes couldn't be subpoenaed. One of the reasons I call them perpetrators in my work is because every single person I interviewed confessed in that context. The first question I would ask them was, "When you received that email from Title IX that you were under investigation, did you know what it was about?" Every perpetrator I interviewed said "yes." If sexual assault were a miscommunication, you would be wondering, What have I possibly done wrong? That is not the way that any of them reacted because they knew.

I will not be participating, thanks. I, Idiot Sister #3, simply take my idiot naps and make my idiot soups and mind my idiot business. And by “mind my idiot business,” I mean “tell all my dear friends who live in my phone about it.” Because I choose y’all 🫶🏻

Missed a call from Idiot Sister #2 during my pre-dinner nap yesterday. Found out from my mom that Idiot Sister #2 had accidentally sent a text shit talking Idiot Sister #1 intended for my mom…to Idiot Sister #1 and now they are of course fighting. So she was trying to drag me into all of that. Nope.

It never ceases to amaze me that the sort of men who claim women are too impulsive and emotional to be leaders are the same ones who swear sober men become completely incapacitated in reason and empathy in the presence of a drunk woman.

In this case, it was someone barging down the hallway of a shared office space where a group of folks were awaiting the elevator, bellowing at no one in particular, “I’M SO EXCITED!” and then pointing at someone wearing a t-shirt in the same color as hers, declaring, “Look, we are TWINSIES!”

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.

i worry that men think being A Good Guy is dramatically and heroically intervening on behalf of an endangered woman and then being publicly rewarded on a grand scale when actually being A Good Guy is just usually saying, “hey man that’s not funny” or “wow that’s fucked up” and there is no reward

When I was a PR intern for a nonprofit in Birmingham, AL, I was running a booth at a mining history adjacent fair and had to sheepishly explain to some visiting researchers from the UK that the Alabama city of Arab is, in fact, pronounced “AY-rahb.” They genuinely thought I was trying to punk them

Obligatory photo of my ASSailant, James Douglas Morrison-Brown. There is a distasteful “Back Door Man” joke to be made here, but I’ll refrain for the time being. He’s likely using his singular brain cell to plot another attack as we speak. #CatsOfBluesky #CatsOfBsky #Caturday

He’s okay and I’m (mostly) okay, but his claws got stuck in my pants, requiring me to carefully put the weight I was holding aside and then slide down the wall at an angle without flattening him to liberate him. Oh, and he purred like it was the funniest thing ever the whole time.

Ugh, Sjogren's is rough from what I understand. I'm so, so sorry. Here's hoping your doctor comes to their senses and actually helps you out, or that you're able to find someone who will. Pursuing treatment in cases like ours is a full-time job in and of itself. I despise it.

Iirc, she was boasting about not using AC during a heatwave. This was her proof
