I need you all to listen. Especially those who don’t want to. Your milquetoast optimism is killing people right now on an ongoing basis.

I hope men understand that it is very very rare for anyone who is not a woman’s lover, close friend, or relative to stand up for her when another man insults her in a room of other men. It is incredibly unusual. They may not join in the bullying, but they’re unwilling to step in to stop it.

Counterpoint, what if we take his money for distribution and then punch him in the dick and bills for eternity.

What if we just punched him in the dick and balls for literally eternity instead idk

I quit the former Twitter two years ago this week, and I am here to tell you that my online life got a lot better for having left it. In two years I've not been tempted to go back, and I haven't felt any penalty in either career or community for not being there. It's nice to be here and not there.

I'm no expert on the word "eliminated" but pretty sure one outbreak oughta strip you of the title

This also happens multiple times every single day. It is not a one-off occurrence. Please stop.
It hurts every time I see liberal/leftist people I know on here sharing posts from accounts flagged for transphobia. I know you may not see those labels but please consider displaying them so you’re not sharing content from garbage people.

Entrepreneurship isn’t for everyone and that’s made worse by a culture of hyper individualism and the idea of a “singular” hyper competent founder etc.

Hey Oscar Alan Pierce
Do you know what it feels like to hate the rain?
To hate something that’s supposed to be a blessing?
We pray every single day that it doesn’t rain…
that we don’t flood again…
that we can just stay warm.
Check the last post on my page and you’ll understand💔

“you sold out”
“the rent ain’t paying itself so yeah obviously”
Growing up in a time when “selling out” was the most shameful thing you could do and then being forced to live through the 2020s feels like being kicked in the head by a horse every day

Really struggled to raise for Fatma and her family yesterday. She’s been messaging me for help for months and has been so concerned about her parents and grandfather who she’s responsible for taking care of- if you have a little to help make things easier ❤️
I’m sharing a Palestinian account every day and today is Fatma. Fatma and her husband had a small grocery store before the war which was destroyed along with their home. She is taking care of her daughter Lolo, 4 as well as their parents and Fatma’s grandfather all of whom have health challenges

one of the complex legacies of Pope Francis is that he publicly said a lot of very ugly things about ‘gender ideology’, but had personal friendships with a lot of Catholic trans women who felt really supported by him. Leo welcoming them publicly feels like a promising sign. I am EYEING HIM CLOSELY
NEW: Pope Leo XIV will share a meal this Sunday with Alessia Nobile and four fellow transgender Catholic activists, during the Vatican’s Jubilee of the Poor — marking the most significant public encounter shared between a pope and the trans community.

I’m sharing a Palestinian account every day and today is Mohammed. Mohammed is 22 and was studying electrical engineering (you can read about his family in the 🧵 ). He’s trying to help his family including his pregnant sister Rasha and his 4 year old nephew Khamis who started kindergarten yesterday!
