One of the things that I find super frustrating about the Aussie male; probably the average anglo cishet man in general is what we've seen writ large from our so called leaders - that women only matter as they relate to men.
I've had to call out a few blokes over the years

I'm a firm believer in men not being able to determine whether they are a feminist or an ally. That determination comes from women or members of communities they seek to be an ally of.
Their actions, public and private, determine whether they are an ally.

in my experience the genuine male feminists are just like, nice to women and treat them normally and don’t start podcasts or seek awards for it. performative behavior should always be a red flag.
Neil Gaiman, Justin Baldoni, and the End of the Male Feminist
This ignominious crew of famous men seemed to align with women against sexist oppression in public as they mistreated women in private.

After Donald Trump brings back TikTok, which he and Republicans banned, he is going to ban and bring back McDonald’s, Diet Coke, Chick-fil-A, Bud Light, Keurig machines, Nike sneakers, Starbucks, Oreos, Disney movies, and maybe even the Bible – just to make his base cheer for him twice as hard.

It both irritates and amuses me to see that those most likely to bitch that the immigrants are taking our jobs are also those most likely to fuck off to some cheap holiday destination overseas.

A UBI, without other social safety nets, is just another revenue stream for rent seekers. Prove me wrong.

Blocking Nazis, trolls, and fascists doesn’t make it an “echo chamber.” People need to stop gaslighting us into thinking we have to listen to Nazis and debate trolls in order to be informed.

Ahoy! The scammers are here! I woke up to this old chestnut, and since Bluesky is pretty new, I thought it might be helpful to show y'all how this one works. A scammer will reach out for work, and it'll be really vague - a piece of his kid, or suddenly four, it doesn't matter, he doesn't care.
