Jeff @tbnjeff.bsky.social · 16/09/2026This describes Talarico’s anti-trans performance on Fox so inaccurately that I can’t trust any of the other reporting. He went way beyond “reframing his support.” 021
Jeff @tbnjeff.bsky.social · 27/03/202610-year-old me was so impressed by how high-concept this arc felt. But the melting definitely left an impression 041
Jeff @tbnjeff.bsky.social · 01/08/2025Absolutely. It's just very frustrating that the extent of his analysis on that front seemed to be "no / not enough lefties are talking about this" which is incomplete at best. 4122
Jeff @tbnjeff.bsky.social · 01/08/2025The article had lots of good advice, including this part about accepting rejection, but I feel it didn't really confront the many reasons why that good advice is consistently outsold by regressive advice. The problem isn't merely an absence of good advice. 190
Jeff @tbnjeff.bsky.social · 01/08/2025*This* is the problem Ian Dunt's article should have been confronting. 130
Jeff @tbnjeff.bsky.social · 01/08/2025The article is indeed good but "no one on the left is talking about X" is a sure-fire pile-on attractor. Because it's never true! His "be yourself and don't treat women like objects" advice is nothing new. But it's absolutely true that it's too often swamped by regressive advice both online and off. 0100
Jeff @tbnjeff.bsky.social · 09/12/2024This is not about “upsetting” people or abstract moralizing, this is about trans folks taking practical steps to protect themselves from hate brigades by blocking followers of Jesse Singal. Journalists who want to follow Singal can just accept the block and move on instead of mocking trans folks. 160
