it's shocking how hetero-normative and basically sexphobic the show was. carrie, a goddamn sex columnist, turns her nose up at anything that isn't missionary with some guy that thinks in slurs
@JortsTheCat
their expensive lawyers have almost certainly spent time discussing your role in all this. somewhere, somewhen, a starbucks exec desperately asked "what can be done about Jorts?"
@adamtotscomix
based on how I was treated vs more flamboyant men when I came out 20 years ago it was immediately obvious to me that what people take issue with was not sexuality but gender expression. the root of all homophobia and transphobia is misogyny
@OneFeIISwoop
we've built society as a pyramid scheme, where the economy is served by the people instead of serving the people. a system organized around need could adapt as a matter of course. a system built on greed will break before it bends

this is a nonsense statement. capitalism is literally when the majority of the means of production is held privately by a few people with the most of of the rest of the population employed and exploited by that ownership class. socialism is when workers have ownership
@JortsTheCat
hyper-individualistic and atomized are no longer enough to describe our culture. it's just straight up anti-social. abusing social justice and psychological terms to mitigate responsibility and pathologize basic human behaviors is just another step in breaking down social bonds
@kenklippenstein
c'mon, they saw a whole new class of criminal created overnight, were they not supposed to ruthlessly exploit that? our prisons won't fill themselves

It is historically the most fought over landmass in the western hemisphere. You’ll find the occasional Abraham Lincoln bust down there, not (just) because he’s a liberatory figure but because he was the only US president who never interfered
@LolOverruled
Marx spent an inordinate amount of time replying to his critics and writing letters dunking on his contemporaries. He was absolutely a proto-poster
@adamjohnsonNYC
Record profits during supply chain issues and they are not alone, everyone in their sector is doing the same. Artificial scarcity is one of capitalism's largest driver and the pandemic is being used an excuse to jack up prices, not cover higher costs

The very practice of embedding became widespread following Vietnam explicitly as a means of controlling the narrative. The prior M.O. of war journalists was to travel independently to war zones. It made the powerful look bad

I’m not accepting anything short of dead or estranged at this point. It’s all too weird for something that would be absurdly easy to clear up
@cnviolations
there's no inconsistency here. she's referring to why it's not some great sin that Latine people don't speak the language of those that colonized them. not that they are speaking any colonizers language. the point is it doesn't matter

We understand, David. You have publicly called us out and enough people have noticed that now we must respond as a matter of public relations.

always blows my mind how they were almost impossibly handsome pre surgery and then just straight up impossible looking post surgery
