As a new Harry Potter trailer makes the rounds, it bears repeating that there’s no way to watch this show without supporting J.K. Rowling’s bigotry and the structural violence she’s inflicting on the trans community.

You can’t without supporting Rowling’s transphobic bigotry.

In Star Trek people often complain that replicated food is not as good as naturally produced food, which is weird when replicators are presumably using the same technology as transporters, which can perfectly replicate Spock every time. But is Spock getting less flavoursome over time? In this essay,

@mikemcmahan.bsky.social My wife got me the Lower Decks boxset for my birthday and it has been such a delight listening to all the commentary! Thank you for making an absolutely incredible love letter of a show. Here's our cat snuggling with Moopsy as a token of our gratitude.

Pikelet the tabby cat has her face smooshed up against a soft toy of Moopsy from Star Trek Lower Decks. Moopsy is a round white loaf of a creature that is adorable but has an insatiable appetite for drinking bones. As Pikelet remains undrunk, this adds further weight to the idea that cats are made of rubber.

Someone has sure already made this observation but the fact they can convert all those empty warehouses into prison camps means they could have converted them into housing, community centers, job training centers or, hell, libraries or schools all along. It’s always a matter of will not resources.

Sure, let's talk more about increasing police funding for the essential work of *checks notes* doing donuts over South Melbourne for 5 HOURS AND COUNTING.

A map of south Melbourne. There's a flight tracker overlay of three helicopters, two of which have police callsigns. Their trails from 5+ hours of flying look like a plate of spilled spaghetti or a loose ball of yarn. This is all because our government allowed a genocidal president to visit, and some of the democratic populace thinks this is a bad idea. I think it's pretty reasonable to not want a genocidal president over for tea! Seems like a bad time! People are using their democratic right to protest and the cops are using their power to royally shit me off by flying laps around my suburb all week. There's a better way than this, if we cared enough to get there.

Sovereignty was never ceded. We've changed the date several times throughout history - we can do it again, with intent, empathy and acknowledgement of our past. #ChangeTheDate #SurvivalDay en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Austral...

Screenshot from the Wikipedia entry for Australia Day: "The formal establishment of the Colony of New South Wales did not however occur on 26 January as is commonly assumed. It did not occur until 7 February 1788, when the formal proclamation of the colony and of Arthur Phillip's governorship were read out. The vesting of all land in the reigning monarch King George III also dates from 7 February 1788."

Screenshot from the Wikipedia entry for Australia Day: "The first Australia Day was established in response to Australia's involvement in World War I. In 1915, Ellen "Ellie" Wharton Kirke MBE, née Clements, mother of four servicemen, thought up the idea of a national day, with the specific aim of raising funds for wounded soldiers, and the term was coined to stir up patriotic feelings. In 1915 a committee to celebrate Australia Day was formed, and the date chosen was 30 July, on which many fund-raising efforts were run to support the war effort. It was also held in July in subsequent years of World War I: on 28 July 1916, 27 July 1917, and 26 July 1918."

Screenshot from the Wikipedia entry for Australia Day: "Historian Ken Inglis wrote in 1967 that Australia Day was not celebrated publicly in Canberra at that time."

Screenshot from the Wikipedia entry for Australia Day: "After 1988, participation in Australia Day increased, and in 1994 all states and territories began to celebrate a unified public holiday on 26 January – regardless of the day of the week – for the first time. Previously, some states had celebrated the public holiday on a Monday or Friday to provide a long weekend."

Not that Fifa will do it, but Federal agents repeatedly killing innocent people in the streets in broad daylight with multiple witnesses and without accountability seems like a justifiable a reason to have World Cup hosting duties taken away.
