I'm not going to say there are no material wins with the midterms, but remember that Palestinian genocide, ICE, concentration camps, and throwing trans kids under the bus have been and continue to be bipartisan ventures. You cannot become complacent because the imperial colors turned blue.
Dear every Democrat in office: Just because Jeffries says the Dems don't wanna seek "retribution," doesn't mean you have to go with what he says. You work for the people you represent, not Big Dog Democrat. You can absolutely get revenge on my behalf.
Oh, hello! I didn’t see you there. Anyway “healing the nation” by doing nothing has not only never worked, it also always sends the message to evil people that the only consequences they will ever face for selling out their own country will be mild inconvenience
Gonna start a GoFundMe for this motherfucker he's in desperate need of a spine transplant
MS NOW@ms.now · 2d ago"The American people don't want us to get even; they want us to get things done on their behalf." House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries, who is now poised to become the next House Speaker, says that Democrats will focus on affordability concerns and not retribution after their midterm wins.
One week from today, Izak shares a stage with the Bastard Bearded Irishmen and Detroit’s own Stone Clover at Small’s! Doors at 7, music at 8. Bring a designated driver, if ya know what I mean. 🍻
I need people to understand that if I'm forced to choose between Democrats and trans people, I'm choosing trans people, every time. Trans people are my family. So tell Democrats not to make me choose. If they support us, we won't have a problem. 🤷
"Trans Lives are Real. Harry Potter is Not" Sticker spotted in NYC
Show this Friday (10/16) at Eastern Market Brewing at 7. This is an absolutely killer lineup. You will be glad if you make it.
Izak + Ypsilanti? We just can’t stay away from each other. 😍 💞You got a chance to catch us at Ziggy’s on Friday, September 25 with new friends Frog Island Power Boat and old friend Mallory Wayt!
3 things about Dem politicians who dabble in transphobia: 1. It's wrong, they're wrong, on a moral basis they're being evil 2. It's stupid, they're stupid, they'll never get any credit from the fascists for it 3. It's proof you're not capable of reading or rising to this, and therefore any, moment
Come on out and see a cool show at The Corktown Tavern tonight!
We have a word for that: transphobic
emma best 🏳️🌈🏴☠️🏳️⚧️ Mxy@emma.best · 2mo agoConsuming Harry Potter content doesn't mean that someone is transphobic, but it does reveal that they don't care about the health and safety of trans people as much as they value a piece of fiction funding the modern genocide of trans people.
it should be enough that all consumption of stupid harry potter shit directly funds the persecution of trans people, but it isn't, and so it should be enough that stupid harry potter shit isn't even GOOD. like. polanski it ain't, my friends
For my birthday this year, Friday, September 11th, I want everyone to hang out with us at Detroit’s beloved Brewery Faisan, and give them a good show before they close down for good in October. No one will be turned away for lack of funds—I just want a fun party. Hope to see you there!
Hey Ypsi, heads up! Catch us at the Dreamland Theater August 29th.
I swear people out here acting like HP is their diabetes medicine. You're not gonna die from quitting the racist wizard books for children. You're 39 years old, Christ.
s. e. smith@sesmith.lol · 3mo agoJKR explicitly said she considers anything Potter-related, even fan-made, endorsement of her politics. And every time you engage with this franchise, you signal to the industry that there's still money in it and they should keep pumping out content from full-cast audiobooks to book box partnerships.
16) Stole this one from a recent skeet I saw: If generative AI could REALLY make the next GTA in 6 months with 10 staff, or write the next bestseller, or produce 10 blockbusters a day? They wouldn't be trying to sell it to YOU. They would keep it for themselves and guard it from you ferociously.
Oh! Did I MENTION that we’ll have a #burlesque dancer during one of our songs at the Ziggy’s show in Ypsilanti? That’s right; you can catch @amarettoscauldron.bsky.social up onstage with us July 31st—and make damn sure you bring plenty of dollah-dollah-bills to throw around like confetti.
