there's a phenomenon (i think mainly of juliana huxtable) where at a certain point, all caps begins to read less like shouting and more like something carved in stone, Romanesque, a bald utterance, a direct message to be received unambiguously... It has a different relationship with time, I think.

"There are growing hints that Ward 4 Councilmember Janeese Lewis George will jump in as a Zohran Mamdani-like progressive, while At-Large Councilmember Kenyan McDuffie has openly mulled running as a business-friendly alternative. (Local developer Gary Goodweather is in the race already.)"
Mayor Muriel Bowser announced today that she won’t be seeking a fourth term in office next year.
This creates a huge opening for the 2026 D.C. mayoral race.
But first, what legacy will Mayor Bowser leave? @maustermuhle.bsky.social reflects here:

googled a phrase that appears in my book just to see if if/when it's been used before... turns out it also happens to be the name of a little known 80s tv show in which a running gag involves a transvestite character who died in the first episode. can't make this shit up

when you understand that patriarchy views children as sexual property it all makes sense. there's no hypocrisy. exposure to queerness & transness threatens to "corrupt" the father's property, to "lead them astray" into self-determination, to taint their future sexual value. CSA is permissible as >
Thatcher's government did this with Section 28, banned the "promotion of homosexuality" as a danger to children, while actively protecting Jimmy Savile and who knows how many other pedophiles. It's the same damn playbook.
I cannot begin to properly articulate how upsetting it is to have had people baselessly accuse trans people of being groomers and pedophiles only for it to come out that they were deliberately doing this as part of a project to provide cover to actual groomers and pedophiles in positions of power

I'm looking for examples of trans women who have revolutionized their respective fields by deconstructing it at a meta level. Savants like SOPHIE, Wendy Carlos, Lynn Conway, etc. Who else?

Mamdani's line that billionaires spent more to oppose his candidacy than he proposed to tax them really says it all.
Like a company that shuts down a profitable location as soon as it unionizes. The principle of maintaining control is more important.

A fourth case is a girl who was shot on a city street multiple times with witnesses after the shooters hurled slurs at her. The police don't see it as a hate crime and are barely even seeming to look for the guys.

It didn’t make her change her politics but it made her realize that the Right isn’t her friend. Too many of our politicians and pundits won’t even get that far because their comparative privilege allows them to ignore the vitriol and irrational spite that fuels the faction they want to win over.

being casually degendered by ’allies’ never gets old .. feels like they’re reminding me to know my place and tbh it’s pretty effective at that. i don’t realize how much of a trans bubble i live in until i’m at a party full of nice liberal straight white transplants

Sobriety from THC has been really helpful for writing because I feel less precious about imbuing every phrase with transcendent meaning and more able to think of it as a project to be completed in the near-ish future

being very intentional and methodical about working through this mindset during year 1 of my transition is one of the best things i did for my mental health, sense of self worth, ability to see beauty in the world… it’s the water we’re swimming in, it takes effort & vulnerability

Every trans woman who is prettier and/or more traditionally woman-shaped than me is an ungrateful genetic lottery winner who has no idea what it’s like to really be trans, and of course every trans woman less pretty or traditionally woman-shaped than me is simply a slob who’s not trying hard enough

This is why the "everyone and everything is antifascist" push in 2016 in response to Trump, reframing antifa as a mass coalition synonymous with the left, was always dangerous. It risks erasing and failing to learn the specific points on which antifascists were *right all along* AGAINST the left.
