Ultimately what it comes down to is a worldview that denies the very notion of any right to bodily autonomy, which can only lead to sexual predation. There’s really nowhere else it can go

That’s why fighting it *has* to be about bodily autonomy, which is why it’s inextricable from trans liberation

BREAKING: Look at this. A new crypto account was opened yesterday morning. 30 minutes BEFORE Trump's announcement of 100% tariffs on China, it added a huge multi-million dollar levered Bitcoin short position, per YF. The market dumped. The trader made a profit of $192 million in two hours. Unusual.

JUST IN: An anonymous trader opened massive crypto short positions just 30 minutes before Trump’s tariff announcements yesterday. They made an estimated $192M in profits.

Someone knew the market would crash…. A Random brand new fresh wallet opened a massive $BTC short just 30 minutes before Trump’s tariff announcement and this trader made $88,000,000 profits.

Donald Trump needs to go to jail. He is thief, he is literally robbing people internationally. He announced 100% Tarrifs on China and sends the US stock market into a death spiral. At the same time someone put over 1 Billion dollars into crypto with orders for 100 million being placed on Ethereum and Bitcoin and other crypto currencies across the board whilst markets got wiped after what he said. Billions, and I mean fucking billions got wiped out, whilst Bitcoin had it a biggest dip ever in a single candle losing 20k per Bitcoin, Whilst alt coins lost over 60-70% of value, everyone with leverage on the market with even 2 x leverage got murdered and robbed. This was co ordinated, this was market manipulation with one anonymous wallet making over 200 million dollars in one day with trades showing that they knew Trump was going to announce this and crash the market.

I love how the big news on Trump’s tariff announcement is how moments before he made it a bunch of people made insanely profitable shorts on crypto, a thing that Bitcoin Bros are all astounded to see happening in a completely unregulated market of a fake currency primarily used by criminals.

IT'S-A ME, MARIO BAVA

Hell yes, new album next year apparently

A dark outline of a crowd, a dark sketch of a ceiling crammed with speakers and auditorium gear. In between an artificial sunrise of molten orange lights glows on John Carpenter and his band.

Last night: John fuckin' Carpenter.

Bowser, King Koopa, berates three of his children in the graphical style of the SNES SUPER MARIO WORLD with Katharine Hepburn's words from THE LION IN WINTER: "My what a greedy little trinity you are. King king king! Two of you must learn to live with disappointment." If you don't remember this happening in the actual game back in 1991, don't worry, that just indicates you weren't lacing your Capri Sun with ayahuasca.

Please, god, make it so

A Quintesson Proescutor from the 1986 TRANSFORMERS: THE MOVIE receiving orders from the Quintesson Magistrate to feed some poor bastard to the Sharkticons. Yes, I knew all that off the top of my head. Do you know how many times I've seen this fucking movie? This masterpiece of childhood trauma? Anyhow, this is where the Wills and Johns go.

"I had a thought for the first time ten minutes ago. Now it's everyone's problem."

The thing about crashing a tank through a museum of antiquities is that you don't have to be a particularly skilled driver to do a lot of damage.

Today is a day when arts degrees are worthless, but the product of those degrees is so valuable it would kill an entire industry if they were made to pay for it.

For the record, literally zero people believe in unitary executive theory.

Some people believe in unitary Republican executive theory but that’s absolutely not the same thing.

Why are you fucking jagoffs illustrating this with a picture from 1992?

Deskilling is real.

This is the world generative AI peddlers long for, one where people are incompetent without their service.

Don't outsource your brain to this shit. You'll regret it.

Hello, Isobel-- still waiting for shipment to me from the printer. I do have a second printer lined up if I get left hanging much longer; just hoping to not have to pull that trigger.

"I spent a lot of time talking to NPC guards in Skyrim, and many of them confessed to knee injuries. The recurrence of this human phenomenon in electronic people should give us disquieting food for thought."

Who Goes Nazi?, by Dorothy Thompson

Every few months now I re-read this "Who Goes Nazi?" piece from 1941 and am blown away by how it captures the people we are dealing with 80 years later.

We "deradicalised" Germany & Japan by spending billions of dollars turning them into functioning liberal democracies & returning them to sovereign membership of the international community. Not by building a Trump Tower on their children's graves.

I'm a ninja turtle. Sewage systems are bodacious.

What's hilarious is that I did like forty of these things before a friend in slack said "Hey, you realize the names of the little people are alphabetical from top to bottom, right?" and I was like "wait what"

For the little people in the squares, life is unrelenting interrogation. Hounded by our intrusion. Forced to monitor and report on one another. Have they always lived in the squares, the little people?

CONGRATULATIONS TO NO ONE

I mean yes this is funny, but the fact that these unconstitutional stormtroopers are so directionless that they literally stand around waiting for random nonwhite delivery guys to bike past them is just pathetic. No mandate, no mission, no clue. Just racism.

oh cool I remember th- [IMMEDIATE PTSD FLASHBACK]

The fact that Kaleb Horton died begging for work instead having a column at some hip legacy mag is such an indictment of this industry. People should have been begging to put him on payroll. But nope, we've reserved that space for Ezra Klein
