When they come for one of us, they come for all of us.

Trans people & sex workers are the canaries in the coal mine. they go after people they think you're willing to abandon to see how far they can get.

congrats on being a useful tool for fascism!

Also strange: Growing up in a world where the Internet didn't exist at all, watching it expand from a seed into an incredible resource, then watching it collapse into utter shit in less time than it took to arrive.

“As Silicon Valley swings right, a shift led in part by major Substack investor Marc Andreessen, Substack will only expand its role as a clearinghouse for the far-right, funded and legitimized by the non-fascists who remain on the platform.”

Today is a great day for the Parasite Eve OST.

And in a previously undisclosed call in recent weeks, Mr. Trump spoke about the race directly with Mr. Cuomo, an old associate and foil, according to three people briefed on the call, who were not authorized to discuss it.

NEW: The Trump administration is pushing its anti-trans agenda globally at the United Nations.

U.S. delegates have objected to use of the word “gender” in U.N. documents during forums on topics as varied as women’s rights, science and technology, global health, toxic pollution and chemical waste.

The British media outlet ITV also went on a Jordanian airdrop and simply ignored the Israeli government’s illiberal demands:

A lot of people complain about the criticism towards "incel media," but I'm gonna let you in on a secret:

nobody cares that you like Senran Kagura. They care that you act like a martyr over Senran Kagura.

It's draining when you don't have a gig, it's even worse when you've gotta stack it on top of a current job. Hope you can find something better soon.

Knocked out a second playthrough of Cosmic Wheel Sisterhood and Deltarune Ch 2 over the weekend. CWS is still a lovely experience the second time around and Deltarune Ch.2 has that magic that made Undertale the behemoth it is. Can't wait for Ch.3 & 4 to drop in price a bit so I can pick it up.

mariah carey is wearing trans colors and a jacket that says "protect the dolls" on the back at Brighton pride tonight 🤌

The correct way to address Nazis marching in your streets.

NYT: Trump pledges 50% tariffs against Brazil, citing “witch hunt” against Bolsonaro

You're about to pay more for beef not just because Trump wants to protect his corrupt friend... but also because Republicans in Congress have decided to cede their power over trade policy to him. www.nytimes.com/2025/07/09/w...

"The Merchant must provide its Acquirer with monthly reports that include a list of all content, including URLs and videos, flagged as potentially illegal or otherwise in violation of the Standards and the relevant actions taken by the Merchant, as well as details of all complaints and take-down requests the Merchant received. The Acquirer must share these reports with Mastercard, upon request." READ: Mastercard requires merchants to share links to any and all content on a platform's website that are potentially "illegal" or "in violation of the Standards" with it on a monthly basis.

"Upon request, the Acquirer must be able to provide Mastercard with temporary account credentials that allow access to a Merchant website for up to seven (7) days to view all content that is behind a paywall or otherwise restricted to members of the website" READ: Mastercard requires platforms to provide them access to any and all content on the site at any time, including free access to content that is otherwise gated behind a paywall or login (including drafts or other private unlisted works), to facilitate the review of that content. They claim to not be reviewing games while requiring Steam and itch to give them unlimited games access so that they may then review those games. They are outright lying.

Finally, Mastercard's statement claims that they have not "evaluated any game" on platforms impacted by their content standards. This is contradicted by their policies, which require merchants to let Mastercard review and inspect all content directly.

They're lying. Keep calling.

Also not great seeing positions regularly offering 15-20k less than my last gig. Not a very auspicious start.

Popped on Robot Carnival while applying for jobs and I'm struck with how great the animation is for a series of shorts. I'm a fan of horror anthology movies, and seeing this makes me want more.

I'm sure that the WAPO and NYT will find "creative" ways to not report on the bad Jobs report.

It's almost like guilting people for their natural instincts could lead to problems down the line.

With my recent unemployment, I won't be able to cosplay as Gustave at NYCC, which is a little disappointing since it's been a while since I've really wanted to dress up as a character in a newer game/show/movie. At least I have everything I need for my Ness.

Playing the VA-11 Hall-A OST while applying to jobs. I loved this bartender simulator for its fun cyberpunk world, charming characters, and absolute BANGER of a soundtrack. I finished it early 2024 and I’m still playing it weekly.

The WaPa headline says: 60,000 Gazans were killed. 18,500 of them were children. These are some of their names. Then follows an enormous list of small print names

Thousands of small print names interspersed with some photos of some of the child victims

NEW: 18,500 children have been killed by Israeli forces in Gaza.

The Washington Post has just published every single known name.

A seminal moment.

How do you show the failures of the NYPD more than a guy walking around with a giant honkin gun in the middle of the street and not a single cop stops them.

Taylor: I had a six-figure income Substack until late 2023. I moved it first to Beehiiv then, because I didn't care for it, then to Ghost in late 2024. Each time the new site handled migration with no subscriber falloff and no income interruption. You are operating on bad information. Just move.

Started reading The Dream Hotel by Laila Lalami, but it's hitting a little too close to political home at the moment, so I shifted over to another S.A. Barnes book, Cold Eternities. I'll definitely be going back to TDH when I'm in a better headspace.

show this to every consultant who thinks chasing toxic masculinity is the way to getting going men's votes

All I can think about is Charlize Theron and Alex Skarsgard in Long Shot.
