always so funny to me when people are like “how am I supposed to explain Gay to my kids?” my kid asks me way harder shit all the time. “why did they build the road this way? why are some people bad?” I don’t know. please ask me about Gay
The Heritage Foundation has released a 250-year roadmap to “save America.”
The document is a how-to guide for subjugating girls & young women: a detailed plan to push them out of college, funnel them into early marriage and motherhood, and then trap them there.

Democracies are so strong that they allow people to criticize democracy. In fact, the ability to do so is an essential quality of democracy. Authoritarians are so weak they don't allow people to criticize authoritarians. Silencing dissent is an essential quality of authoritarian regimes.
So an odd thing here is that if you say "an unidentified man dressed in a Batman costume" your point is to communicate "it is not really Batman" but the problem is that the real Batman, within the fiction of the comic book "Batman", is also, literally, an unidentified man dressed in a Batman costume
Oh she’s EXTORTING US.
The regime and many of its supporters are surprised to see so many people in America define "Us" as "my neighbors, my city, my state, my country," rather than as "my race and gender."
And they seem to have real trouble processing the idea of taking risks to help others and stand on principle.

Never forget the most ironclad rule of politics:
Every abuse you justify against another will be weaponized against you in time.
To cheer abuse, violence, or the suspension of others’ rights is to cheer the abuse, violence, and suspension of your own.
Sounds right, on all counts!
"clearly so isolated in their own authoritarian bubble they cannot see how regular Americans would react to the video of a woman smiling at a masked agent & saying: “That’s fine, dude. I’m not mad at you,” only to have him shoot her in the face & then spit out “F*cking bitch” after he killed her."
Sounds like something somebody would say if they had just heard the word "genre" used in a sentence for the first time.
I worked on a swarm of modifications and additions for 5E, even *after* I knew this problem existed. Why?!?
I've abandoned that project, but why did I keep trying?!? 😅
"It wasn't murder, and if you say it was murder we will kill you, which again will not be murder."
Everybody should watch this and see this woman, who has a baby in her arms and is thrust into basically a standoff, develop courage in real time.

So I was reading this older Liberal Currents piece on the broken gender politics of MAGA (www.liberalcurrents.com/the-new-gend...) and struck by how many of these masculinity influencers uphold 'having sex' as the greatest thing.
And, like, if having sex is the best thing you've done...I'm sorry?
Now, just how am I supposed to take a picture of *both* of my hands, huh?
