I knew it was the students because you could walk by their door and tell. They were such dumbasses, they had the freedom to smoke in public without being arrested.

The time my landlord in Seattle emailed me at work in the middle of the afternoon to blame me for the constant weed stench on our floor, even though across the hall from me where a pair of white college students who were home all day long

"Hm...who is smoking all this weed at all hours of the day? The students on break, or the guy who works a 9 to 5 job? I say the guy who works a 9 to 5 because he's trans and latinx and from New York. New York is scary!"

Trans people 🤝 Jewish people

Being incessantly vilified and persecuted as a societal threat for most of history for just trying to exist

If you're pushing people to CW things that amount to pet peeves, please rethink your agenda.

so, Hypnospace Outlaw had its big mod update today, and I really think y'all should play it.

@grainloom @kazuma if you give a shit about actually making things better for men, you *must* realize that *bullshit gender standards are the same enemy*.

the same voice that says women should automatically get custody of children when a couple splits... is also the one saying that because they think women are the natural caretakers, *and men aren't*. it's the same voice that laughs at "stay at home dads" and rags on getting emotionally involved with your own children as "not manly".

@dankwraith the flat structure + the whole rolling desks thing is just a perfect recipe for creating a bunch of individual cliques with no recourse if you're shut out or marginalized

you cant just sweep away structures and assume everything will turn out fine, you need structures in place to check individual power, address grievances, and develop unified strategy

@melissasage Lovecraft is like a Sesame Street segment about not being afraid of the dark.

"See, Ernie! There's nothing to be afraid of! It's just a triangle mapped onto a sphere! Now stop screaming about going mad with terror and good night!"

Lovecraft even fucked up liking cats, by naming his cat the n-word
