Cis people need to pay attention to the way they communicate this. They freely admit that after all of their research, they came up with zero evidence that HRT was harmful.

Then they banned it anyway, claiming their inability to find a reason is a reason in of itself.

Babe, wake up, they're reinventing the commentary tradition from first principles

I truly loved making this project with Marc, Brett and Jon!!! It turned out great and I've appreciated hearing from people that this is the first time they've heard about this protest and history.

holy shit

It’s bullshit that when I slack off I’m not sticking it to the man or the government or my parents. if I stay up too late or eat too much junk food or stare at screen too long I’m pretty much sticking it to myself. That shit sucks!!!

wearing my women in stem t-shirt on international women’s day to celebrate the fact that i was given that and a reusable water bottle instead of equal pay

The camera cutting away from Del when he whispers “that it’s all in your head” is criminal negligence tho

The author sits at her exhibit table next to a Mitski poster she designs. Two teens stand in front of her table. One teen asks, “is that a REAL Mitski poster?” The author answers, “haha yeah … from 2015! Over a decade!”

The author looks wistfully skyward and says “it was a small scene in Brooklyn … we have the same birthday actually!”

While the author stews in nostalgia, blissfully ignorant, the teens give each other a look. One of the teens says “oh my God…”

The teen follows up with “Mitski is OLD!” A spike from the word balloon punctures through the author’s glasses into her eye.

I'd like to say to these people, and this comes from a genuine place of a lesson I myself had to learn:

It is all right to have these sorts of thoughts. But they're inside thoughts.

screenshot of text::"The United Nations instituted International Women’s Day (IWD) in 1975—or so the official story runs. Few remember not only that the origins of March 8 lie in the history of the international workers’ movement, but that it was the socialist movement in the United States that first launched the idea of a day devoted to women’s rights centered on working-class women. In fact, the Socialist Party USA first established a day of education and action around women’s rights called “Woman’s Day” in 1908, and the following year U.S. socialists held demonstrations in several cities to demand women’s suffrage. In 1910, German socialist Clara Zetkin proposed the transformation of the U.S. Woman’s Day into an international day of action—International Working Women’s Day—which, in 1914, started being celebrated on March 8. Three years later, on March 8, 1917, Russian women workers took to the streets in St. Petersburg, organizing a strike to demand bread and peace. It was the beginning of the Russian Revolution."

THREAD: I got laid off from NYMag/Vulture after 14 years. The family lost 75% of income + medical. Now mzs.press bookstore, once a side project. is do-or-die for Judith & I. I feel weird telling you this because others are doing much worse. But if you could like or share this, we'd be so grateful!

The asymmetry of the value placed on human life is so striking. Israel has a goal to recover 40-year-old remains; to do so, it invades a sovereign country, and the lives of 26 Lebanese are an afterthought. Their names not even worth printing in the New York Times.

Bryn Terfel as Wotan in the Robert Lepage production of Die Walküre at the Metropolitan Opera in 2011. He wears an eyepatch and looks haunted. The subtitles say “I am caught in a trap of my own making”

some aspects of him are pretty relatable lol

ICYMI: I spoke with legendary DC Comics publisher Jenette Kahn, in the first half of a wide-ranging interview about her life in comics.

I do think “Graham Platner was a bartender who personally served some DC pundits and reporters and was known to them” is a pretty big part of the skeleton key to unlocking how he got so much cash and media attention so fast and why they’re so determined to stay all in on him now

This generation is gonna rediscover from first principles why gambling is haram

a lot of what has made discourse insane is that there's an entire crop of guys who live in dc, do a ton of uppers, and have massive gender insecurity around the fact that they're soft-handed scribes
