I believe this to my core. They're using trans people as a test case to dismantle individual rights in the US.

Huh wow turns out the people who wanted to misgender and deadname trans people and use racist slurs never cared about free speech, they just wanted to misgender and deadname trans people and use racist slurs

Thank you, Damon. Thank you, Jamie. Thank you Gorillaz 🇵🇸 donate.togetherforpalestine.org/campaigns/to...

Reminder that back in 2010, during the Plastic Beach era, Gorillaz cancelled their appearance at a festival in Tel Aviv in protest of Israel killing nine people trying to supply aide to Gaza. Israel has been committing genocide for a while, and Gorillaz have been against it

It is wild that Charlie Kirk of all things is becoming *the* litmus test. Even just talking about the event publicly without a sufficient supply of sackcloth and ashes is cast as "promoting political violence." I haven't seen this kind of mandatory performance of allegiance and piety since 9/11.

She's quoting Hitler *again*

Just to be clear, Charlie Kirk was a racist piece of shit, Israel is committing genocide in Occupied Palestine, and trans rights are human rights, and if a million people file ARDC complaints against me or send me death threats I will never recant any of those things.

YO CALIFORNIA our state was recently downgraded among safest states for trans people and trans youth YOU can help make it better right now follow the quoted link, established by @lalgbtcenter.bsky.social, and tell our elected officials to sign these bills into law ASAP 👇

Graham I will personally venmo you 73 cents if you say the word faggot

Most people I think immediately recall that Dylan Roof was given Burger King. I recall that he sat with a group of Black church people , who prayed with and for him, before he murdered them. He didn't just walk in and spray and pray. He sat with them, talked with them. Then murdered them...

(gritting teeth) critical support to jimmy kimmel

So as things get darker... you're going to have white men who are used to belng not only listened to BUT IN CHARGE trying to shove their way to the front and not advise you, but TELL YOU how things Should Be Done. Those asshats will get you dead or arrested. You don't have to play ....

You can not “debate” someone who doesn’t believe what you are exists and is aggressively opposed to you because they believe your existence is in opposition to an all-powerful invisible authority figure they worship. Fuck off.

This essay, by an Egyptian-American former New Yorker staff fact-checker, is an incredible read And incredibly damning Huge recommendation

I'm making the rounds on terf twitter again lolololol

I can't even process Jimmy Kimmel being too edgy for the establishment. Motherfucker doesn't have enough edge to open a pouch of Capri Sun

Pitchford’s line about Borderlands 4 being a “premium game for premium users” is a hollow joke considering how utterly ravaged by bugs it is. Like, this thing is broken in many ways that the arrogance about it isn’t even partially earned.

The US government is currently seeing if there is any real opposition to committing genocide against its trans population, and the lesson of the past two years with the genocides in Occupied Palestine and Sudan, and the ongoing genocides of Black and Indigenous peoples, is so far no, there isn't

Was told I had a Kim Possible outfit today

Can't go into details but I have spent the day listening to what is currently happening to immigrants, Muslims, Black women, and trans people in the blue state of Illinois. People are being doxxed, fired, and threatened with death. For existing. It's bad.

It is basically impossible to ship packages into the US right now, which is very cool and normal and not at all an economic and social disaster of unhinged proportions

Ngl, it's a bit disconcerting going about one's day when sitting legislators are calling for your entire community to be incarcerated and forcibly destroyed www.erininthemorning.com/p/two-republ...

Continuing to thrive to spite em all

I don’t think Julia Roberts is going to be making an Eat Pray Love sequel where she goads her lesbian lover into binging on booze and cocaine while dying of cancer www.theguardian.com/books/2025/s...

My mentions are filled with cis people saying they haven't seen eliminationist rhetoric from Republicans about trans people in the news, and folks it's literally all over right wing media. Nancy Mace. Marjorie Taylor Greene. J. D. Vance. Laura Loomer. Stephen Miller. Matt Walsh.

I don't know if you've heard of this D4vd guy but he had a top 40 hit a couple years ago called "Romantic Homicide"

What stage of fascism is the government pressuring media into canning centrist comedians who slightly mock their governing philosophy, I wonder

It's so wonderful living in a time where you have to treat the people who want to kill you for being trans or queer or racialized like uwu smol beans or everyone will threaten to kill you even more for being so divisive

I am going to post this once, and I'm not going to argue about it. We have pretty strong evidence that Charlie Kirk's murderer was motivated by frustration with the "hate" in Kirk's politics. We have no evidence that he was a Groyper. slate.com/life/2025/09...

Marty! You’ve gotta come back with me!

i don’t think omnipresent right wing shrieking is working in their favor

If you care about trans people, listen to trans people and not Wes Streeting.

So uh if you're anti-anti-fa, you're pro-fa, just saying

A lot of media types going "It needs to be said, this is fascism" and all I think about is the people told to stop being so hyperbolic for warning fascism was coming over the past decade.

The question isn't "does this reveal fascist intent" or "is this an authoritarian attack on speech?" Anyone answering 'no' is not to be taken seriously, which means we dont have to waste time addressing ourselves to the 'yes'. Instead, we can ask: "will this be effective in building their regime?"

I actually *would* wish depression on my worst enemies, it would even the playing field a lil bit

Say my name. Benedryl Hat Man. you’re goddamn right

"we need to boycott this thing, we need to cancel that thing" my brother in christ, we can't even get people to stop posting on twitter lol

Just sat down at a save point and it was a trap... ive had enough of "hard" games 🫠

Interesting that both Phillipson and Streeting are campaigning by saying they'll be nice to trans people despite being two of the party's biggest anti-trans MPs.

CHARLIE KIRK WAS A RACIST GHOUL FFS *endless screaming*

should we have vote-shamed harder? no. serenity prayer

Kimmel isn't fired. If they FIRED him, that would free up Kimmel substantially. He's suspended, meaning they can bench his ass under contract, a much more effective form of silencing. I think

I truly haven't seen this level of "You can't say THAT!" since 9/11, and that was about 3000 people dying in a terrorist attack while this is about a podcaster.

Not the AI being trained on my worst videos 😭

I'm one of those people who had an early childhood without the internet and then it exploded when I was in junior high. I have seen some things and been terminally online for over 30 years. I have never seen so many people so desperately sad and mad all at once. It's all so very broken.

Get ready for AI generated jokes about Taylor Swift everyone

youtu.be/yL4e_xi3px0?...

Counterpoint: its much easier for them to repress speech at the level of Late Night TV than it is random social accounts and they are consistently attacking high visibility low power targets which makes new enemies for very little actual social gain or narrative control

I was kinda like, eh, she has one quote from Hitler on hand demonstrating the mind of evil or whatever. But two posts with totally different Hitler quotes in a short time span? That's freaking weird. I don't know what it means, but it is super weird.

Happy Birthday, Mistress of the Dark. 74.

pretty wild that we live in a country where all of the major media companies are being dictated by fear of, among other things, the sitting president personally suing them for money

being early is the same as being wrong

Here’s to the health of married women ^_^

It looks like my services as a name-your-own-price lawyer are going to be needed even more, especially for trans and Black people downstate. So IF you have a little extra and have already donated to mutual aid or Palestine, I'd appreciate if you wanted to support my work through Ko-fi or Patreon.

My girl was getting a lot of love! I had to show some love back!

It would be so cool to have publicly funded ranked choice voting elections in non gerrymandered districts with same day voter registration.

almost made an interviewee cry because when she asked me what my managerial style is, I told her that my job as a manager is to serve and support my people so they can grow and achieve their own goals, and I am once again really worried that managers are straight up abusing people

Them: "Oh my God, can you believe conservatives have manipulated media companies into deplatforming and censoring any voices that don't align with their ignorant beliefs and fascist values?" Black, brown, trans, and queer creators: "..."

Conservatives, please, please don't come for Jimmy Fallon next. We'd be so owned if you ran Jimmy Fallon off the air. Please don't hurt the left's favorite comedian, our beloved Comrade Fallon!

Every day I wake up with Chuck Schumer and Hakeem Jeffries leading the “opposition” party.

And this this this this is why 'debating' them is a mug's game. You're putting them on a platform of 'this is an equal argument' by doing so and you're generating their income for them. Doesn't matter if it's an edited clip to make you look the fool It's all money to them. Outrage machine $$$

This is undeniably true about Disney at the executive level and they could choose otherwise! But I think this underestimates the degree to which monopolistic businesses built on IP are de facto arms of the state that only flourish thanks to US legal regimes and are therefore extremely loyal

wait all those dude comedians hollering about their 'free speech' only cared about saying the n word and being misogynist, they didn't really care about free speech at all?????????

I’m stoned and feeling corny and want to share that after I died for a few mins (cardiac arrest), the one thing I was absolutely certain of is that the point of living is to serve others

YIAY challenge: SPOOK ME UP for October! Our 12th year!!!!! Below is this year’s pic. Submit your edit with #YIAYoct so we can find it! Deadline is Sept 22. Winners will be revealed on Oct 1st over at jackisanerd. Happy 'shoppin!

you could get banned for this now

you guys ever think about how charlie kirk is still dead? like, totally fucking dead.

An absurd but true headline. You can't end your own life, the state might want to do it.

the other parts of "don't sign up for a protest" are "don't get in the habit of signing up for protests because it will eventually bite you in the ass" and "pressure orgs that do protests to find ways if distributing information that do not require storing first/last name and zip code"

One of the reasons I spend so much time posting excerpts from Israeli media that dehumanize Palestinians and manufacture consent for genocide is because I learned early on that people will not believe a narrative they don't want to.

Dude... With this Jimmy Kimmel thing I'm even more not sorry than I was this morning.

Where's a red death when you need one, I swear ...

Went to my hairdresser today and told her that every night a demon comes to me and whispers "get a mullet" into my ear, and she was like "we can do a mullet!" And I was like "LUCY! NO! WE'RE RESISTING THIS EVIL!"

Luigi was right.

So many cool fossils are revealed each month that I'm getting the ol' blog going again to enthuse over more of them. Here's the latest, on a 12-foot-long carnivorous croc that stalked terrestrial prey around 70 million years ago. 🧪

New dinosaur day! Meet Zavacephale, the oldest and most-complete pachycephalosaur yet described. And it’s tiny, a beeper that only weighed about 10kg. I’ll tell you all about it at NatGeo.

Odds on Colbert having Kimmel on tonight?

They out here with the Demogorgon cum

She said this during her last pregnancy and she ended up calling off a lot of dates

This is obviously a coerced attack on free speech, but people are misunderstanding the circumstances of the firing and what Kimmel said. He didn't joke about or celebrate Kirk's death, it's because he falsely asserted that the shooter was MAGA when evidence at the time pointed otherwise.

'Tis a new month, so it is once again time for Aetna to refuse to cover my Crohn's meds because they once again want verification that I still have it, for the eighth time this year

This is great, and not the first time she's spoken out, but I have to say I've been bitterly disappointed in the silence from basically everyone else in women's football.

saw an AV Club comment the other day that said: "charlie kirk's death really was 9/11 for white people you haven't talked to since high school" and holy shit is that the most apt description i've seen lmao

Am i pretty? 🥺

Phrase of the day: ✨ Stochastic Terrorism ✨ Def: violence instigated by hostile public rhetoric in indirect, vague or coded language, granting the instigator plausible deniability. Eg: broadcasting that houseless people should die, then an encampment being shot up, is ✨stochastic terrorism✨

Just Quentin Letts in the Mail today saying Keir Starmer could be executed if he doesn't abandon human rights law

It actually makes total sense for the fascist government to make antifascism terrorism.

This is crazytown bananapants When Trump was offered condolences about Kirk and asked how he’s holding up, he responded about the $200 million new ballroom they’re in the middle of building at the White House. He did this twice. Jimmy Kimmel pointed it out. And dropped an Epstein reference

One of these "nine urgent questions still hanging over the assassination" that the Mail has is "WHAT HAPPENS IN VALHALLA?"

Israel is just run by a bunch of IRL Lex Luthors, huh

First or second or third they came for Jimmy Kimmel. I haven’t been paying attention so I don’t know what number we’re on. Probably one of the early ones

She looks like she's gonna shoot lightning at Kurt Russell.

Oh no her head is gone.

I was talking with my therapist about this yesterday but one of the most triggering parts of all the death threats wasn't the threats themselves per se. I was more worried for Mercy than myself. It was that the rhetoric was JUST. SO. CLOSE. to what I grew up in.

WHICH IS LITERALLY A FREE SPEECH ISSUE.

They look like the Power Rangers if the Power Rangers were each about to ruin game night with a prepared speech about how, actually, monogamy is an oppressive social construct.
