![A partial Twitter thread, displaying 2 Tweets, both published circa 15 January 2021.
1. A reply from an account with the username "mckenziewark" and the display name "chica marx". The text of the Tweet reads: "The only trans voice is you, one not recognized as authoritative on trans stuff by most informed trans ppl. Yet—and maybe never if this is how you go about it. We late transitioners are a marginal thing now and we have to accept that."
2. A reply from an account with a partially redacted username and display name. The visible part of the username reads "m[...] gessen"; the visible part of the display name reads "m[...]gessen". The text of the Tweet reads: "I have been a queer gender nonconforming journalist for 38 years. For most of that time, you were a middle-class cis white man. How about you refrain from telling me when and what I can write on?"](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:3ls2ei5dm7e5gymlwny2dygw/bafkreiazzhxazz34lpkg6wkcufespuc7pfpdkud5ggrwumt3n4jeg7tbji)

it took the brightest business minds at disney and EA a very long time to get there but they eventually figured out “reasonably budgeted star wars spin-offs in a variety of genres” was a good idea after all
Hey remember when a bunch of people were waving the warning flag that the way we conceptualise 'Wholesome Games' to break away from the Violent AAA Mould was itself building a restrictive rubric around acceptable types of queerness, sexuality, undertones and so on yeah

Hank Green then: "I have been relying too heavily on AI as a research aid." "I have not been managing my impulses well." "the level of dopamine I've been getting from interacting with LLMs...is not healthy for me" now: (paraphrased) My new policy codifies what I've been doing all along.

In the past few days: - Transphobes have lost two further court cases, extending their streak of majority losses over the past year - Amnesty International UK folded in the face of legal threats anyway
This feels so much more harmful than never having posted the threat briefing in the first place. That research was spot-on, which only highlights that you’re apologizing to unambiguous hate groups for finally defending us. Never donating another dime after this.
Stub Buns@stubbuns.bsky.social · 2w agoQuestion for Amnesty. Trans rights have regressed in the UK. That’s undeniable. The organisations you are apologising to have celebrated these rights being eroded. Are you really that weak that you can’t in good faith defend calling them anti-rights? Because they very clearly fucking are.
I think it bothers me that the received wisdom for Jax Digitalcircus has settled on '4channer' and not 'maladaptive abuse survivor by the skin of her teeth'
I wrote about depictions of witches and what text and subtext can reveal about the cultural anxieties behind these iconic figures. The title is Emily's atrocity, which she foisted on me like a deadly disease and for which I will never forgive her.
