this is a bit of an obsession of mine especially here in charlottesville. the cost of commercial real estate is prohibitive if you want to experiment and the city seems categorically opposed to small lots and small units that could allow people to start businesses without a huge capital investment

man they picked the perfect looking guy for this story

I would simply like to live my quiet little life as a trans woman and buy fruit and sing and walk my dog and wave to my neighbors and watch movies and use restrooms without being the subject of a culture “war” where both political parties agree I’m a disgusting freak who doesn’t deserve civil rights

parker molloy was absolutely right that cis people need to keep the phrase "gender affirming care" out of their mouths when they're using it to mock the shit other cis people are doing, like hesgeth's testosterone fixation. like, what's the joke here, friend? "LOL you're like a tranny?"

"This election is about the threat of trans kids" is the worst possible messaging for Dems yet so many candidates are leaning into it. No voter will flip R->D over it. Low-info voters read this as "you're focused on bullshit that doesn't affect me" while the base reads this as "you're an asshole."

Incredibly disappointing ad from Mary Peltola (D-AK) saying she neither supports "kids getting surgeries to change genders or men in girls bathrooms." Yes, flipping the Senate is essential and can stop bad laws and bad judges from happening, but she can do it without my support from the lower 48.

One of the upsides of covering MMA is that you occasionally got to see terrible people get what was coming to them. Here’s accused rapist Gable Steveson getting knocked into the middle of next week.

I'm ascending. Incredible.

its great because they apparently need total adherence to dogmatic message discipline from garfieldfucker420 who has a trans flag in her display name but get really mad if she tells them they should have done something else then

a lot of people act like there's a trade being offered where we give up trans athletes in sports and in exchange fascism is defeated forever

Kirby was right

my husband just looked up from his phone and said, the daily mail is mad about some portland city councilor who tweeted about hating cops. and i said, that rocks, how can i support him? luckily mitch’s haters put up a billboard with a link where you can do just that!

The Big Bopper@thebigbopper.bsky.social · 3d ago

Somebody forgot to check whether they owned the domain name ditchmitchgreen.com before they put it on a billboard 😈

It's true. Treating your big shows like cannon fodder in a counterprogramming scheme makes them feel like sideshows that can't stand alone. Then you throw CM Punk on the card in his hometown to try to move the needle. It's a weak posture.

Just remembered one of the greatest X-Men posts of all time

The Anthropic, Meta, and Google "breaking containment" incidents all resulted from setup errors (or a stunt) by the same company: Irregular. Irregular created a sandbox that wasn't really a sandbox because it had a live internet connection, and gave instructions that were then carried out online.

I just wanted you to be the first to know that Taylor Lorenz is antiwoke now

If wrestling is fake, explain this.

"Dimeless Phoni Storm" gets truer every day.

Mariah please let us know if you're OK.

To be specific, family annihilations are committed by men more than 90% of the time and are committed roughly every five days in the US.

Susan Rinkunas@susanrinkunas.com · 3w ago

Plenty of women want to punish their peers, but the fact that men are on social media suggesting that a not guilty verdict means the 19th Amendment should be repealed— when men are more often family annihilators—is just too much

i thought this was very funny

"‘Liberal Zionism’ Is Dead, Says Leading Israeli Historian" The idea that Zionism is compatible with democracy, or even basic humanity, is absurd as the events of the last three years have proved, argues legendary Israeli author and academic Avi Shlaim for Zeteo UK:

every day of my life I think about the people using “she” to describe this computer program who still need to be convinced to use it for trans women

Tilly Norwood, a controversial AI “actor,” abruptly switched languages during an interview with Piers Morgan, though the company behind the AI creation denied she malfunctioned.

saw this on an ACT UP poster from 1988 at the Poster House museum today. the more things change :)

By moving to the “center,” Democrats have failed to fight the forces that led us to Donald Trump: widening inequality, economic insecurity, and the unchecked political power of corporations and the rich. Political centrism is nonsense. There is no middle ground between democracy and oligarchy.

My eldest girl's 16th birthday is very soon and since we recently played most of the @remedygames.com games this summer together (Alan Wake, Control, Alan Wake 2), she wanted an Alan Wake themed cake. Ladies and Gentlemen, I present to you... Alan Cake. (Please tell @samlakewrites.bsky.social)

I wonder if there have been any studies on trans blood pressure. I know Black folks in the US have hypertension issues because of systemic oppression.
