I lived through the homophobia of the 70s through 00s and “eww it’s unnatural” was as common and tedious a refrain then as it is now against our trans friends.

Whenever I hear people talk about “basic biology” or “nature” or “common sense” in order to bind the outgroup, this comes to mind.

a doctrine at war with nature

That is what it sounds like.

I know, I know—comparing struggles is gauche but when the rhetoric is a xeroxed mad lib that sounds as wrong now as it did then, I can’t help it. I’m not equating the magnitude of the oppression or denying that the African diaspora holds an exceptional place in American history through our modern day. (Not trying to be like that dumb novel that was like “catholics were the real Holocaust victims”.) The comparison to this unambiguously wrongheaded historical text is a tasteless one but brings with it the comfort that in future hindsight, this might be how all those “it’s just common sense, it’s just basic biology” boot stompers are gonna sound.

Hyper intéressant : où on voit des blagues, et peut-être comme dit la vidéo «la raison pour laquelle le livre de règles du basket est si épais»

I’ve spent many hours since the election reading about the Ku Klux Klan in the 1920s. It started the day after election day when I had hours to kill in the lobby of a Hampton Inn, waiting for a room to open up.

Den här lagen är så fel 😭

Finale of Checkmate, Lincolnites is out.

Haven’t seen it yet because the yt-dlv is four and half gigs so I’m waiting on that. That’s over three thousand floppies.

Men varför är det en sån kapplöpning mot botten mellan rassehögern och rassevänstern?

“Vi måste ta debatten” (genom att göra oss lika dåliga och avhumaniserande 🤦🏻‍♀️)

Socialdemokraterna vill satsa 700 miljoner kronor på att punktmarkera ungdomar på väg in i kriminalitet.

A credible argument that right-wing forces manipulated the mainstream media into driving the ouster of the President of Harvard, ostensibly over “antisemitism” and “plagiarism” but actually because she supported diversity programs and was a black woman.

Emet-Selch fucks a Hrothgar and spends the entire time sneering at them and talking down to them. Hrothgar could be the WoL or just an unnamed NPC - if the latter, this is probably happening during his tenure as emperor of Garlemald, but if it’s the former, any point in the timeline is acceptable. Bonus points if the lines are blurry as to whether Emet is mostly sneering because of the shard business, or because of the “it reminds me of a concept that can talk and walk on two legs” beastly look of the Hroth, or if WoL!Hroth, just how unlike (or too alike) to his old friend this shard is. Either way, he’s not above getting fucked by one while he calls them every cruel name under the sun. Bonus points for barbed Hroth dick, size difference and the Hroth eventually snapping and choking him out to get him to shut up. How much of a bad idea this is, and how it ends up for our Hrothgar, depends on how mean the writer wants to be.

Open-ended discussion from 2021 about exoticizing and reductive fonts.

Självklart förstår jag att han inte är seriös, men det här är så typiskt för rassarnas lösningar oavsett om det gäller våld, övergrepp, fattigdom, svält, utsläpp: dom tror att problemet är löst så länge det sker tre centimeter utanför rikets gränser.

An artist-activist catalogues the physical remnants and political legacies of ‘segregation walls,’ unassuming bits of racist infrastructure that hide in plain sight in American neighborhoods.
