Hot take: I'm truly not interested in hand wringing over how much people will miss enjoying the books of men who have turned out to be abusers. I'm far more concerned about the missing art that women haven't been able to create/publish because they crossed paths with such men.

why do columnists keep telling Democrats to be more centrist to attract voters and never tell Republicans to ease off on restricting rights to attract more voters? what about all that stuff about objectivity?

Long thread coming, ported from FB. I'm tired of how we only speak softly about most of the predators in publishing. And done with two decades plus of people saying it's just the field, or the culture, or it isnt worth trying to correct any of this - it's just how things work. ->

The coverage of Rep. Rashida Tlaib’s protest of Netanyahu in the chamber as he spoke mostly does not mention it is also her birthday today. To thank her for her courage, and for her birthday, today I donated to her campaign fund. secure.actblue.com/donate/rashi...

Watching 1news tonight and saw the report that there are thousands of unmarked graves near state/church care places were. I knew it was coming, just like the unmarked graves near the residential schools in Canada. NZ’s more recent colonisation efforts being finally brought to light.

Serious answer: I've watched 60+ episodes of skibidi toilet and there is absolutely film potential in it. It reminds me of a lot of webcomics, in that it starts off frivolous and absurd, but 50 chapters in, you're fistfighting god for the universe. Srsly, give it a watch.
how in the absolute fuck was this not a shitpost

reminded that Phil Collins initially wasn't happy at all with his famous drum break in In The Air Tonight and re-recorded it using longer drumsticks to get a distinctive sound, a decision that had far-reaching repercussions

While signing and birding copies of my newest book YOKE OF STARS at the Raven bookstore tonight for folks who ordered a signed copy, I discovered that my GP preordered my book. A bit weirded out -- but probably in a good way (my GP is awesome, but still, my GP).

This is what Barbara and Karen Fields call "racecraft," the construction of race, racism, and its power structures through language. Go back to elementary school and grammatically diagram this. Whom does the NYT blame for the harshness? Even the possessive here is doing work.

"criticism centered on her race" If only the English language had a word for that!

Ya sorry there's no coming back from this. You can't re-rebrand as a goofy meme loving centrist who thinks psytrance and electric cars are uwu again. You went way too far off the fascist deep end

B/c Obama was president major media sought out voices like T. Coates, A. Serwer, Tressie MC, Nikole HJ & others. Then they minimized them when 45 showed up. That same media now needs to recalibrate to the new reality of 45 v K. Harris yet seems dumbfounded.

This digitally-altered image of Kamala Harris posing alongside Jeffrey Epstein is being shared in the wake of Joe Biden's endorsement of her as the new Democratic nominee. The real image, captured in 2015, shows Harris posing with her husband Douglas Emhoff.

Rep. Jamie Raskin on MSNBC as he endorses Vice President Harris: "JD Vance has no convictions. But Donald Trump has 34 of them, so maybe he can share."
