What's wild is seeing people finally engage the philosophy of restorative justice...for this guy. Not in the context of prison abolition or the incarceration of Black men, of the Black Lives Matter movement or defunding the military police state Nope let's talk about it for a rapist YouTuber

Liberal "abolitionists" really believe in this absurd binary. There really needs to be a deep accounting for everyone involved in twisting anarchism's "fire to the prisons!" into "the only alternative to prisons is forgiveness and forced silence." (Hint: a fuck ton of Christians were involved.)

I love that the more famous CMAT gets, the wider the blast radius gets for Bertie Ahern’s roasting. It also helps that he definitely cares about this. I hope witnessing entire arenas singing his name pejoratively makes him feel the first shame of his life

relatable gaming comic
8 panel comic

P1: a bean-like Mario stands by a steaming pot of pasta, on top a stove. He says "it is I! And I cook the pasta."

P2: POV switches to a house exterior. Mario stands at a window and says "now I shall stare out the window while I wait"

P3: We dolly back, to reveal-- "MAMMA MIA! Giant Tom Cruise!"

Giant Tom Cruise is visible from the shoulders up, smiling at us Tom Cruise-ily, while giving a thumbs up with his right hand.

P4: A tall panel, as GTC transcends reality to go to a Jack Kiby-like plane of existence. Mario stares on all the while.

P5: A closeup of Mario, closing his eyes as he says "truly, that was a relatable moment"

P6 & 7: Mario's eyes snap open, in sudden realisation. He then looks down in silence.

P8: We dolly back to reveal that the pot of pasta has boiled over. A single tear falls from his eye as he says "the pasta is over-cooked. MAMMA MIA"

One major reason that Microsoft was using a definition of intelligence borrowed from white supremacist Linda Gottfredson a couple of years back in their AI documentation is that scientific racists are pretty much the only ones out there pretending that intelligence is well defined and understood

No. Trans folks in the US have been targeted repeatedly. That's awful and you have my sympathy.
Within the context of a single post we wouldn't consider it a direct threat or targeting a protected category. le send trans folks to concentration camps.

One of the things to come from GamerGate was the gamification of torturing real, live women...hounding them out of their homes, making them look over their shoulders for years. It was treated as a joke, nbd, the work of a few bad apples--as all terrorism against women is--& that failure leads here.
