@larryellison2.bsky.social just in case you're the real Larry Ellison, kindly eat shit and die.

And no anti-LGBTQ+ and anti-trans provisions. "Protections against lawlessness" are NOT enough.

Somehow I knew it would be Lemon Demon before I even finished reading it the screenshot lmao

Report: You To Be Fired For Reading This Headline About Charlie Kirk

Can we all just agree that the shooter was a mentally ill dumbass and stop trying to push our side of the culture war?

I wish I had the words to make people see me as human. To break past the dehumanization. The words that would make everyone understand if they just heard them. I keep imagining there’s some magic arrangement of words I know that could do it - even as I know I can’t. I just got to try and hope.

Press Conference: No "Transgender" Or "LGBTQ" Symbols Found At Kirk's Shooting Yesterday, several media outlets claimed or strongly implied that "transgender symbols" were found at the scene of the gun used by Charlie Kirk's shooter. This turned out to be false.

1. In the immediate aftermath of Charlie Kirk's shooting, the WSJ laundered claims that "transgender symbols" were found with the shooter's gun.

Now, a press conference reveals that NO such symbols were found.

WSJ owes a full retraction and apology.

this is what they said was “trans ideology” on the casings? you’ve got to be kidding me

I don’t endorse extrajudicial murder, especially as it looks like it will be used to justify further harm on trans people and others. And I’d be lying if I said there isn’t a part of me, watching a video of a man bleeding out on social media, that feels some measure of empathy—even though that man would have gleefully watched me die the same way, and in fact actively campaigned for it, for all trans people, institutionally and personally. But I don’t feel sadness. The world is better without him in it—even if I wouldn’t have chosen the way he went, I won’t shed a tear for a man who dedicated his life to making mine shorter. He was a Nazi in a nice suit, and the only thing respectable about him now is the silence he finally left behind. What’s enraging is watching the political establishment scramble to lionize him. Not just Trump and his cronies trying to build a martyr out of a Nazi, but mainstream figures too: Ezra Klein praising him for “doing politics the right way,” Gavin Newsom saying we should “honor Charlie’s memory” by continuing his “good-faith debate.” Fuck off. The only reason you can say that is because Kirk played his bigoted game in a suit, looking respectable while calling for the imprisonment and eradication of Muslims, Jews, trans people, queer folks, the homeless, women, BIPOC, everyone who didn’t fit his fascist vision. Meanwhile, anyone who so much as acknowledges that Kirk was “controversial” loses their jobs. MSNBC’s Matthew Dowd got canned. Trans writer Gretchen Felker-Martin lost her Red Hood comic for making the exact kind of biting joke that’s her entire career—she literally wrote Manhunt, a book where TERFs get murdered in an apocalypse. Even I, for simply posting on Bluesky that I “dishonor” Charlie Kirk’s memory by living my life joyously, got flagged and briefly censored for being “rude.” That’s the rot of “centrism”: pretending to hold the middle ground while tilting the scales in fascism’s favor.

Writing something up

We Must Not Posthumously Sanitize Charlie Kirk's Hateful Life Influential anti-LGBTQ+ activist Charlie Kirk was assassinated on Wednesday. While condemning violence is something most can get behind, sanitization of his hate has gone too far.

There has been a rush among centrists like Gavin Newsom and Ezra Klein to brush over the hateful life of Charlie Kirk and valorize the man.

Let me be clear, killing Charlie Kirk was wrong and abhorrent.

We must condemn murder without sanitizing a man who built his empire on hate.

My latest piece.

what the fuck is “transgender ideology”

We simply cannot live in a country where the death of hate mongers is a tragedy and the death of everyone else only warrants a shrug.

According to mainstream corporate media, folks who don't believe LGBTQ people should be stoned to death are sowing division in our country.

If we cannot all be on the same page that the sitting president threatening to invade a US city is fascist dictator shit then truly I do not know what to do.

I love it! Makes it a lot more clear what each option is and who it's for. Even as someone who follows the development of Bluefin pretty closely I have a tendency to get it confused :D

Btw, I remember there being some anxieties around folks expressing their opinions during primaries.

Besides being nowhere near a presidential primary at the moment, now is in fact the time for people to express certain lines they expect candidates not to cross.

Protect trans folks.

I really hate the term "sideloading". I preferred the original term, which was "installing software on a computer that you own"

I wanna do Daffy’s very badly. Perhaps with a remaster or even remix. I think the new albums will be first though, because they’re fresh as daisies.

Flight of the Knife vinyl record

Finally got my hands on the Flight of the Knife by @bryanscary.bsky.social on vinyl.

I hope there’s a vinyl release of Daffy’s Elixir someday. It’s my favourite album after this (wink wink nudge nudge).

Ozzy Osbourne, the singular metal legend whose Black Sabbath virtually invented heavy metal and in later years became a reality TV pioneer, has died at the age of 76.
