This is a good question and something that sounds fun to write about, so I'm going to do a thread and periodically add to it. I argue that what a lot of people refer to (and unfairly dismiss) as "modern Simpsons" is often a decade or more out of date, and the show has turned a corner in recent years
can you give us a "recent episodes" primer with examples of ones to check out?
I honestly don't see why I should believe Mamdani and his supporters are seriously committed to trans rights considering it seems like they're willing to sacrifice literally everything else for the sake of affordability

People pivoted from "he's going to arrest Netanyahu" to "he's just a mayor what do you freaks even think he can DO" so fast I got whiplash

It's so disgusting how US "leftists" will use Palestine to build credibility for their celebrity politicians and get subscribers to their podcasts, then discard it once it's no longer useful. I'm tired of tolerating it

The debate over Mamdani is important and not a distraction because a lot of us on the "left" don't actually want the same things and in fact have often have irreconcilable goals

Grimly amusing to see social democrats and national socialists unabashedly embrace this meme, which is often deployed against them by right liberals, the second they're criticized by revolutionary socialists
The funny thing about social democrats posting this image all the time is that this is exactly what they do to any actual revolutionary socialist government

(b) even if it was, the landlord's lost rent due to the monthlong delay outweighs my health risk; (c) if my Crohn's Disease is severe enough to warrant surgery, I should not be a practicing lawyer, and (d) I should be sanctioned for my request.

And the judge is BRIEFING IT.

In case you're wondering how it's going, this morning I learned a landlord lawyer is asking a judge to order me to not have my upcoming surgery because (a) Crohn's Disease isn't a serious enough condition to necessitate surgery;

Not that it makes any difference, but it's really something watching Zionists demonize Muslims for supposedly hating trans people when my irl Muslim friends are some of the most affirming, loving, and safest people I know.

I know this week can be really hard for queer and trans folks. So if that's you, remember that I love you and you are under no obligation to hide who you are for anyone. You're perfect. And if your family can't see that, it's their loss.

or ableist, if your family is harming you or people you care about and refuses to stop, if your family consists of people you are not or cannot be safe around, you do not owe them your presence.

It is possible for a person to unearn the bonds of blood relationships. And that's on them, not you.

I haven't spoken with my parents in sixteen years. I haven't spoken with my birth siblings in a decade.

I know no contact isn't an option for everyone. I'd never tell anyone they MUST or even SHOULD do what I did. But I also want to tell you that if your family is racist, or queerphobic,

Time for my usual morning routine, pouring myself a cup of coffee and checking the stock price of the company "Nvidia" to find out if the entire economy has crashed

The best thing about having a cat is when he’ll walk in the room carrying a slice of ham but you don’t have any ham in the house. Where’d you get the ham little guy?

frustrating that this piracy discourse is the same goddamn thing every time, has been for years, while discussion of exploitation of writers by publishers tends to remain very faint. it feels like this is a frequent steam valve for frustration, a group that can be yelled at without risking jobs.

“If you were that sick you would be dead.”

“If it were that bad you would get help.”

“If you can post on social media you’re fine”.

Disabled people are constantly subjected to “if” statements from people who have no concept how bad it can get & how little help is available

As socialist energy increases and people realize a socialist revolutionary movement may actually be possible the opportunists and chauvinists reveal themselves

My former stepmom stole my mom's family recipe collection when she and my dad divorced. I was keeping some of my things with them and wasn't there to protect it (I suspect I lost a lot of my childhood things in that process, either to her or the trash). It still pisses me off
Family cookbooks, filled with handwritten notes, sometimes held together with rubber bands, tell the story of generations of homemakers. They are irreplaceable treasures.

One thing reading Lenin really makes clear is how much conventional wisdom on the "left" is literally the exact opposite of what he argued and how much time and energy we spend relitigating literally the exact same debates he was responding to
