I’ve been trying to write about this all day and I just couldn’t. Today I reached 5 years at Apple. The me who started at Apple had no self esteem, poor body image, and really no sense of identity. I didn’t think I’d be alive for five more years, let alone succeed at such a place.

This is a U.S. Senator. Openly calling for violence against Muslims. Using N*zi terminology. This is where we are.
Senator Randy Fine @VoteRandyFine The problem with referring to #MuslimTerror as "radical Islam" is radical implies rarity. It is not. 37% of US (!) Muslims support Hamas according to@pewresearch. And that is just those who admitted. The first step to solving the #MuslimProblem is to admit we have one.

Nobody has heard from Dr. Hussam Abu Safiya since he was detained by the IDF for refusing to abandon patients after Kamal Adwan hospital was torched. Demand his safe return. tiny.cc/SaveDrHussam...

Ok I got a request to share something about when I went to the #erastour. I have so many stories, but I thought I’d share this moment at the concert when I nearly died. 🥵

I first met @rmondello.com IRL a year ago, and we recently got to reunite on the other coast! They are one of the kindest, funniest humans I’ve ever known. 💚

Also is it just me or did we get exponentially cuter in the last year?!?

I appreciated this summary of the issue
One of the (exceedingly boring) pillars of oppression is to keep oppressed people busy. AKA "just block the person who upset you." Like if nazis spend no time blocking and i spend half my time blocking that means the system is serving the nazis. "just block" means "if you want a good experience you have to put in labor" and coming from someone who doesn't need to block this is saying "i would like a leg up on this platform."

Partially because I’m insanely exhausted, I still cannot find the words to adequately describe this magical evening!

Telling people they should risk their lives is also maybe not helpful?
talia jane @taliajane.bsky.so...•1d you need to call it for what it is and fight tooth and fuckin nail against it. you might not survive, but your chances go up that you will the more people you get to join in with you. it's easy to crush one ant. much harder to exterminate every ant in a colony.
