i want an iris perfume because i like the idea of smelling like a flower that is slowly falling apart
playing online chess:

Game 1: "oh that's a bad one"
Game 2: "I think I'm tilted"
Game 3: "I'm definitely tilted"
Game 4: "I should stop"
Game 5: 😡😤😭

I don't think I've ever seen it so clearly depicted how much the left failed at social media
Something that's been clear to me for some time is that a lot of progressive advocacy and politics has overindexed on finding just the right combination of words to say while ignoring the fact that no media ecosystem exists where people might actually hear you say them. New from @mmfa.bsky.social

you need two skills in this world as a trans woman 1) to be able to charm those sympathetic to you 2) to be able to physically defend yourself in every other case

I feel this is more up @heartpunk.bsky.social's alley but inflexibility and dogmatism is part and parcel of a fascist mindset
Ignoring the science, as we have for decades, means we are not solving the right problem. Even if the disinformation is stemmed, these minds won't be any different. New battery of studies confirms @karenstenner.bsky.social work. Cognitively inflexible minds wrought extremism. Below for sources 1/

how does one reattach to a world without wanting to live in it?
anyway the gist of this all is that it may actually be impossible to recover from dissociative disorders in our world without creating kinder optimisms (opposite of a berlantian cruel optimism), a culture of pervasive nurturance, and radical anti disposability

we have to love each other, tl;dr

so many of the key issues rn are really about a parent's authority to completely control their children
Something I struggle to accept is how much this moment we're in together is being determined by the fact that our overlords and many voters have had their brains completely fried by abusive family dynamics. The reason they can't stop talking about Daddy is exactly what it looks like.

what is happening right now is absolutely a form of epistemic violence that has extreme consequences for how we live our lives and it causes me an enormous amount of distress.

It is also important to remember that was "trans" is always constituted with reference to political power and knowledge
Elimination by legislation. Paper genocide. This has already happened once to trans people in the 1930s - now it’s happening again due to the Gender Critical movement and Trump.

leftists against the online left

so I need aftercare from Mass???

(((the first type is because they want their liberal parents to love them)))
There are leftists who are leftists because of the strength of their convictions and because they believe a better world is possible. There are also those who are leftists because they want to spite their liberal parents. It is not hard to tell the difference

the worst people are making great points
AUSA Hagan Scotten, former clerk for John Roberts, really put some mustard on his resignation letter.
