I wish I had a better link but you can hear "Philosophical Boxing Gloves" here: youtube.com/watch?v=VtE1-R4Dad

It's from 2002, so it's about attending a party in person, and not being stuck arguing on Twitter

Oh hey Milky Wimpshake is super queer and I'm so happy.

I knew them from "Philosophical Boxing Gloves", a very timely song, but now that I'm digging into the rest of their catalog, I'm relieved that they are indeed Chill and also Bang

Big big shoutout to all the fake allies and nonprofits that talk a lot about poor trans POC while never giving any kind of material support.

Here's to getting through the day without random strangers suddenly touching my body for no reason

It's less about feeling guilty for liking unclean media, and more about feeling tricked, even kind of groomed, into thinking bad things are ok.

Like idk it's really hard to separate the art from the artist when the artist is a racist pedophile and the art is about...being a racist pedophile.

One of many 2019 moods is constantly thinking about how things I enjoyed as a teenager were made by legit horrible people with legit horrible themes baked in as subtext, or straight-up text

Today's gender is the smell of five a.m. just before it starts to snow.

i have a lot of admiration for the sheer bravery and/or ignorance it takes to create a work of public art

"Your fingerprints are not secret & as a result, they are bad authentication tokens because they are easy to clone and hard to revoke. It's like issuing you a password at birth & then never letting you change it. It's an incredibly bad idea from a security perspective." @doctorow@twitter.com twitter.com/JosephSteinberg/st

@brightneedle There's a whole thing about science as a process having to constantly throw out bad science to get into there, which they don't understand or are being deliberately obtuse about as cover for their prejudices. They love to use obviously bad science to launder bias and bad politics.

murder, racism, cops 

Daniel Pantaleo, the racist pig who murdered Eric Garner, was finally fired by the NYPD

I'm feeling mildly triggered because some tourists touched me suddenly from behind, to get my attention.

It was fucking pointless anyway, because I heard the cashier, they just thought I wasn't moving fast enough or something.

I heard them worriedly whispering, "He said, 'Don't touch me!'" amongst themselves like I was the rude one to say anything...like, keep your hands off strangers, fucko. Jesus.

And when strangers in the city switch from shouting rudely at me in English to shouting rudely at me in Spanish, because I can't be deliberately ignoring them.

It must be because I don't understand what they're saying!

When people stare at me and I'm not sure if it's because they can't figure out my gender, my race, or why anyone would go outside looking like that.
