Using Golden Ticket to describe people who have fled war and destitution to legally seek asylum. An internationally recognized legal right that the UK is treaty bound to recognize is pure cruelty and evil. It is the language of Nazis, of deportations, of camps and life unworthy of life. Evil.

Alice Wong taught us that disabled people don’t just leave memories behind—they leave infrastructure. Lineages of care. Methods of collectivity, survival. She named the connective tissue that holds our communities together, even across death, even across the losses that come too fast and too often.

She's always been a disingenuous fraud.
Her 'poor starving writer in a cafe' background was an act - her family was loaded, and they actually owned the cafe she wrote the book in - she ate for free.
Claimed to have always been Labour voter, but totally lost it when Corbyn was in charge, too.

The more I find out about Rowling, the more it seems obvious that she has always been a middle-class conservative woman with regressive attitudes, and the Twitter-Rowling pre-2020 was an invention to appease a Leftist fanbase.

So, I’ve been really getting into cross stitching this season, so I treated myself to a craft bag (to craft on the go) and a plague doctor needle minder (to keep my threaded needle in place.) 🖤
Bag from Yvettes Stitch Store.
Needle minder from Botanical Craft Studio.
Both on Etsy. #crossstitch

Popped into the Blackheart Market in Edinburgh yesterday. Loved it. Met really nice people running the stalls and picked up a few lovely goodies. 🖤
Anyone who loves all things witchy, goth, horror or just a wee bit different, please check it out. #blackheartmarket

Went to a prayer service tonight at St. Mary of the Lake, where they have cardboard cutouts throughout the church representing parishioners afraid to come to Mass because of ICE.

Male trekkies are footnotes. The women are literally the foremothers of slash fiction as we know it. They walked so mpreg and omegaverse could run. Are you responsible for knotting? Do you claim an ancestral link to Bull Moon Rising?

The Media and society only "care" about disabled people if we can be slaves to Capitalism, or if we do "inspirational" things.
We're never allowed to just exist and try to maximise the limited Quality of Life we have

you actually don't need to have affective empathy to be a good person. if you don't feel sad when other people feel sad or whatever, that doesn't make you a monster.
it's your behavior and how you choose to treat others that decides your character. not the presence or absence of emotions.

Do you have any extremely niche, but serious, ethical stances?

I'm not a historian but my analysis is it's "Not good" when a government constantly commits crimes and tells the legislature, courts, and general public "What are you gonna do about it"

writing filthy, nasty queer porn is an act of resistance. drawing/painting filthy, nasty queer porn is an act of resistance. creating anything and everything in this vein is resistance. the sanitation of fandom is directly related to fascism and puritanism— fight back! fuck censorship!
