“I thoroughly disapprove of duels. If a man should challenge me, I would take him kindly and forgivingly by the hand and lead him to a quiet place and kill him.”

if american CEOs were killed at the same rate as schoolchildren, they would all be dead in a few months.

if american CEOs were killed at the same rate that police kill unarmed people, they would all be dead in a couple of weeks.

if american CEOs were killed at the same rate that life saving treatments were denied coverage, they would all be dead in seconds.

the wicked movie teaches important moral lessons like "be bisexual in college" and "don't trust politicians" and "if you push someone who's in a wheelchair without their permission, someone might throw a bench at your head with their mind"

The authors of Project 2025 just plan to stick a sharpie in his hand and have him sign EOs turning the country into a theocratic dictatorship. All discussion of anyone being too old or mentally unwell exited the race with Joe Biden because apparently those worries only apply to Democrats for a mass media that wants a return of the TV ratings that the chaos of Trump's first term brought them.

I'm begging y'all to understand that even if Harris & Walz aren't progressive enough for you, we stand a lot better chance of pushing them to the left than we possibly do getting any concessions from Tr*mp and Vance on foreign policy positions or social issues like "are immigrants and LGBTQ people human beings who deserve civil rights?"

I've spend the last two weeks speedrunning coming out as a trans woman to my coworkers, extended family, and the assorted friends I'd collected through Facebook and I've been shocked and overwhelmed by how enthusiastically supportive cis women have been in particular. After doomscrolling through TERF shit for the past year, I'd become convinced that cis women tended towards distrust of trans women, with a significant percentage actively vitriolic. But, time and time again, I've received effusive praise from the cis women I come out to. Not just progressive women either: Christian Facebook-moms from Texas have been enormously supportive. I've gotten some support from cis men too, but nothing nearly as passionate, and they've been the source of all the awkward avoidance or disgusted looks I've experienced. It makes complete sense: cis women generally like being women, and most of them like it a lot, so why wouldn't they celebrate somebody else becoming like them? This really drives home how dishonest TERFism is: they present themselves as the voice of women, but really they're just a regressive minority, distorting the issues to lead people away from their inclination towards love and acceptance.
