I’m alarmed that more people aren’t alarmed by Trump targeting Somali Americans and labeling them “garbage” and “crooks” who “contribute nothing.” Most of them are U.S. citizens, yet Trump says, “I don’t want them in our country.” If you know history, you know the horror this can lead to.

What about getting people blackout drunk and-or pressuring people to take drugs? Like... I'm not a total party pooper, but the level of substance-use that's practically expected at frats is waaaaay unhealthy and definitely lacks safeguards for any participants, even if they are fully willing.

transmisogyny cuts two ways: misogyny against a trans woman by demanding she isn’t a woman through abusing her like a woman to prevent her from being a woman misogyny against a trans man by insisting he is a woman through abusing him like a woman to prevent him from being a man

Because my job can be a real bummer, when I am searching for instances of sexual violence among men in a defined group, you don't search for "sexual assault," you search for "hazing." We have euphemized language because we really, really don't want to address this in any real terms.

Mugwump is a term that I use for hatchback cars, because years ago my grandfather called my dad's Toyota tercel "Mugwump" because the plates read "MWP ###" (I can't even remember the numbers). My grandpa knew the word in its "bird on a wire" fencesitter meaning, but he said it suited a tercel too

When Ukraine destroys Russian data centers, hoards of aggressive right-wing bots disappear & the internet becomes friendlier. So much of politics is driven by the internet & so much of the internet is driven by Russians who want to hurt us. Shouldn’t we do something about that, given that we know it

I said this in a thread last night and in a thousand threads before it, but you really are doing the work of those who would destroy democracy and the rule of law when you are a doomer. You can be aware of — and vigorously oppose — the lawlessness of this administration without insisting on doom.

I want to live in a world where society has moved in a direction such that our biggest corporations feel an obligation to support our most marginalized populations. because it's not a sign that corporations are 'good'. it's a sign that society writ-large is trying to be.
