A 🧵 of my published work in 2024:
Genuinely dystopian how "taking pictures of strangers without their consent" has become a genre of online content.
And I don't get what's purportedly performative about these photos. Reading books at coffee shops, the airport, and on the subway? God forbid!

Hey so “underage girls” are…children. The word you’re looking for is children. They’re not like, women-in-waiting or women-lite or whatever. They’re children. I think some of you are very uncomfortable with what that means for you but it is still true.

A fantastic story by @erikatwurth.bsky.social. As with WHITE HORSE, she deftly blends horror and mystery, while also incorporating indigenous history and emotional heft. Grab a copy!

Don't forget that Zohran Mamdani spent his entire campaign standing proudly beside the trans community. He went to trans rights rallies just to show support. He proudly waved trans rights flags without hesitation. He refused to back down in support of trans rights. That makes me happy.

I keep returning to this clip. I came of age during the alt-right YouTube days where "pwning feminism" drove clicks. And I'm watching it all happen again, this time with billionaires funding and fueling boys' insecurities, creating broken, toxic men who hate everyone - including themselves.
AOC: And they are able to radicalize a generation of young boys in particular, away from healthy masculinity and into an insecure masculinity that requires the domination of others who are poorer, browner, darker, or a different gender than them.

Watching VHS Halloween and enjoying it so far, though I noticed what looks like an AI photo in the first short film.
It's a small detail, especially in a very well directed short film (with some great creature and set design) but that makes the usage of AI all the more disappointing.

Don’t Fear the Reaper popped up in my playlist for the first time in forever during my drive home, with the sun setting behind the mountains, and now I have some ideas brewing that I need to scribble down.
