So what you're saying is corporate executives are less skilled than an algorithm but hoard wealth and exploit workers with actual skills.
Here's a chart to chew on: white-collar workers say that AI saves them little or no time, but executives think it's a massive timesaver. This divide between employees and management is going to influence the future of the workforce.

"By sharing who we are both within and without our aspec identities in our interpersonal relationships, our neighborhoods, our community, and every other place we are part of a human network, we are telling the story of what it means to be aspec."
Your weapon against queerphobia? Authenticity.
Bring yourself to the table of your life. It's a pushback to the forces fighting us.

Not hard to believe. It’s been happening to Black citizens for ages.
Still hard to believe that there are videos and witnesses to someone shooting a woman in the face three times. Yet the shooter has not been arrested even though the police know who and where he is.

What if, instead of worrying that someone else is doing what you do, you support them and amplify what both of you are doing?

Aside from the bad faith mischaracterization of their content here, this also messes up the chronology. The “woke” social movements of the 2010s were strongest from 2014-2020—so, mostly while Trump was in power. Covid killed them.
what the hell is this revisionist nonsense? This *did not happen*—except in the minds of the far-right. You're buying their bad faith bullshit. MAGA called for and now is building a white ethnostate b/c *they are white nationalists*. That's what they do. FFS

I think we spend too much time policing each other's queerness in an attempt to appease straightness. It's a battle we won't win.
They are always going to hate us. Stop seeking straight approval.
Queer people policing other queer people's queerness will never make the straight world accept you.

When the critique is “well that’s not representing *real* gay life!” And then they point to something they consider represents “real” gay life and it has nothing to do with any gay life I’ve ever lived.

irrational pet peeve: When people post things like, "I hated this TV show, can someone explain to me what I'm missing?"
Nothing. You're missing nothing. It's just not for you. Go find what is for you.
It just feels so self-important. "Share your thoughts I diagree with so I can not agree with it."

Also, frankly, if you're wondering why books by/about gay men get fewer movie deals than books about gay men catered to women, it is because when straight women love a story, they force everyone they know to read it. When gay men love a story, they post a shirtless pic with it once & never again.

This is what Dem leaders need to understand. The murder yesterday and the shootings today in Portland are the result of POLICY. This is exactly what they intend. If you collaborate with the GOP in any way, blood is on your hands too.

Everything happening now has a precedent. This is not new. Please understand that everything happening now is very American. The only change is that it is happening on camera to middle income white people. Ask BIPOC and low income white people about abuses by the state.
