I mean, there's really no hiding anymore that the purpose of The Atlantic is to ease centrists into gladly welcoming and accepting the rise of fascism.

When you strip down all of the nonsense to the essentials, that's what the situation is. People trying to justify that their love of a fictional wizard from children's books and movies is SO IMPORTANT and POWERFUL that it outweighs actual real life trans people and their ability to live. That's it

Honestly it is refreshing to see someone just earnestly say "I love Trans People and think they deserve respect and basic human dignity But I love a fictional wizard from books written 20 years ago enough SO MUCH" That's the insane defense trans folks have been watching yet made for years now.

"“I think that the trans community deserve safety and dignity and respect and total acceptance. But I love Harry Potter." is such a wild quote. Like, you've just got to laugh at this point.

i am not trying to rob comfort from those who have taken comfort from this statement. i would simply invite you to notice what isn't in it and consider the implications of that absence.

As I've said before, the Trumpists are *hunting* trans kids. The media is silent. The Democrats are silent. And someday they'll all claim they fought against this. www.lgbtqnation.com/2026/08/anti...

I love you all but you are incredibly (understandably) reactive. It’s making you SO easily manipulated by rage baiters. When you see something without context, a headline or a snippet of a quote, take a deep breath and look into it to see if you really should be upset. Please protect your hearts.

the most disappointing thing about Starfield isn't what everyone complains about it's if you jump off the oil rig looking platform that Neon is built on, you don't plunge into the thassalophobic depths of Volii Alpha's world spanning ocean instead you find out that it is 2 feet deep a metaphor

biggest tell to me that big tech *wants* this shit is that they're not beating the drum to oppose this shit like they did back in the day with SOPA

It will be worse than this! Most websites will be forced to ask you to send your ID to a third party surveillance service, adding a credit card won't be enough for most. Bluesky asks for your *social security number* if you live in Texas now, due to this shit. Call in, and kill it.

remember to flat-out tell them "this is dangerous for children, the exact opposite of what proponents of these bills claim. We are not being fooled by this."

…Are you kidding me? This country's treatment of voice actors is fucking abysmal. Aqua Teen Hunger Force essentially built Adult Swim, & if there were any justice, Carey Means shouldn't have to work another day in his life. Between this & Andy Merrill's trouble, i just… what the fuck. What the fuck.

cis people think they can find some sort of carbon offset for consuming this trash and funding the campaign against us and it has to be made clear that no such weird trick exists. no piracy. no libraries. no donations in kind. you cannot fool the beast and you cannot buy indulgences from its victims

Sandy Ernest Allen@sandyernestallen.bsky.social · 2w ago

I want to emphasize: When I say "no" I mean no. If you're buying like, merch from some seller whose money doesn't go directly to JKR, you're still supporting Harry Potter. Every cis person who gives themselves permission to still consume this IP makes it appear okay to others. Stop it. Cut it out.
