I finally watched Mickey 17 and guys, why is everyone reading Mark Ruffalo as a Trump character when it's clearly riffing on Elon Musk's whole Mars thing? I mean come on, the whole "breeding" obsession, going into space to build a company town, even the raw meat sauce diet thing? This is peak Silicon Valley tech billionaire. Peter Thiel Jeff Bezos type shit.

I wonder if this is why some people complain that the commentary isn't as pointed. You guys are limiting yourselves if you only recognise one type of authoritarian creep we should explode.

wow isnt it funny how all these white people keep flocking to blindly defend another white person when its evident half these people dont even know what it is people are mad about. im sorry if I think its not actually that hard to not let a nazi who was banned from twitch for saying slurs into your event. I dont think its too big of an ask to not let a bigot into the streamer award even if they get enough nominations. am I losing my mind

why so many people cannot comprehend a word being used in a slightly different way than they're used to is beyond me

Bro I did not just see someone unironically saying only trans women can be genderfucky 😩

Like "ummm a lot of tme ppl based their personas around transmisogynistic genderfuck caricatures" shut the fuck up maybe? Maybe people's fashion is actually nothing to do with you?

"trans women invented genderfuckyness and it's transmisogynistic (the only real transphobia) if that inspires your fashion too" like can you please just go talk to some queer people that actually exist. Can you PLEASE pull your head out of your colon and stop acting like your brothers are attacking you just by existing. Just fucking grow up already, are you insane?

You don't engage in Tumblr discourse because you have a job and payments, I engage in Tumblr discourse because I have a job and payments and like tending to a blog where I talk about things that I don't talk about in my real life because it feels like logging in and letting go of the things I do talk about in my real life, and rambling about things that have little to no direct impact to my life gives me an unserious way to argue and arrange my thoughts (something that is fun). We are not the same.

With all the blood and soil nationalism going on - all over the political spectrum - I always want to ask (but never do) what is to become of the stateless, the multiracial, the in-multiple-diaspora?

They're trying to fucking crucify her for that one

I'm worried that some folks are kinda losing the plot of "amab transmasc" and "afab transfem." Like, more power to intersex folks who identify with those labels. Y'all are wicked(pos) and I'm glad that those exist for y'all. At the same time I think we need to remember that perisex afabs can be transfem and perisex amabs can be transmasc. Trans forms of gender are different than cis forms of gender and if someone goes about being feminine or masculine in a way that is trans then that person is engaged in transmasculinity or transfemininity regardless of agab.

(not to mention the application of those concepts within the context of plurality but folks may not be ready for that conversation)

Every two weeks of AI discourse on twitter:

Karla Ortiz: Our lawsuit number 23 just had a breakthrough! AI is almost dead!

Multifandom Twitter artist: guys this is SO huge! the AI BROS have lost! Spread the news!

IP lawyer: Hey I just read this case and from what I could tell the thing you're arguing for is something that would have drastic consequences for fair use and independent artists. Can you clarify that isnt what you meant?

Guy who's trying to start an ethical dataset business: Wow look at these AI BROS spreading MISINFORMATION! They're just malding that we're winning 🥳

RJ Palmer: *The most Hitlerian shit you'll ever hear about art with 14 thousand retweets*
