    Ok last thought about the Harper's letter: The sheer number of signatories who have waded into the transgender debate on the anti-trans side is astounding. I read many of the references to specific gripes in the letter's text as specifically directed at trans critics.

    I wish we wouldn’t conflate “complete lack of imagination” with “critical thinking and pragmatism”

    when i say defund the police, i mean the immediate reduction of their budgets, the immediate demilitarization ridding them of combat weapons.

    from sohla’s Instagram stories bon appetit’s lack of diversity is obvious from the video content that spurred its massive following, but to find out that only white editors are paid for video appearances? i am disgusted

    Journo friends, especially student journo friends -- if you're looking to subscribe to other papers, you have a great selection to choose from: - - - - - - -

    I've subscribed to the New York Times since high school, where I'd go in an hour early to read the paper before class. Tonight, I am cancelling my subscription. I will not send my money to an organization willing to imperil the lives of my loved ones.

    I think when we reduce legacies to singular brick-throwing moments we do a disservice to the work of our queer ancestors. We shouldn’t focus on just those singular broad events of alleged pan-queer liberation because they gloss over the significance of smaller-scale organising

    why are we paying 100K for a police car?

    Each cop car that’s set on fire costs at least 100k. Guess what pays for those? Our tax dollars. Guess what’s going to be raised to pay for more? Our taxes. You guys are really showing them! 👍🏽

    I will say this until it doesn’t need saying. If you are not protesting but you have a strong opinion about the protestors who are doing it wrong, SHUT UP AND GIVE MONEY AND RESOURCES TO PROTESTORS WHO ARE DOING IT RIGHT. Don’t tweet it. Don’t text it. Don’t talking head it.

    Here's something I never get from the "but no one can ever destroy property it's immoral!!!" crowd: the police destroy more property than anyone. They literally seize more property than criminals! Hopefully watching cops riot last night make this clear?

    Arrest is murder with the outbreak and ongoing conditions in Cook Country Jail.

    Even as countless videos reveal how fascistic and lawless the police have become, journalists continue to treat police departments as neutral, reliable sources of information. Gross journalistic malpractice disguised as “due diligence.”

    Both and won’t even say that George Floyd was killed. The clarity that they are obviously avoiding underscores their commitment to aiding and abetting white supremacy.
