Deleted my last skeet because the way it was written made it look like I knew about the rape allegations against him. I did not, I just had him as a garden variety asshole.

New study by Linsey Marr: “We aerosolized SARS-CoV-2 & pulled it through masks. After 1hr we were able to recover infectious virus from fabric masks but not an N95 or surgical mask. When we pressed artificial skin against the masks we found viral RNA but no infectious virus on the skin.” #MasksWork
Stability of Aerosolized SARS-CoV-2 on Masks and Transfer to Skinpubs.acs.org The potential for masks to act as fomites in the transmission of SARS-CoV-2 has been suggested but not demonstrated experimentally or observationally. In this study, we aerosolized a suspension of SAR...

The most heartbreaking kind of person is "obviously autistic but Very Loudly believes that autistic people are just Faking It For Attention so you can't Tell Them".

My toxic trait is that I believe Dolly Parton should have just let Jolene do her thing. If your man cheats on you just because some ginger rando put the moves on him, she's doing you a favor by taking him off your hands.

anyone arguing that the correct response to seeing all the awful things online is to "log off and live your life" instead of getting into the fucking streets is brainwashed

According to the IG ads I've been getting, Meta's algorithm is VASTLY overestimating how much disposable income I have.

We talk a lot about how bad it is to Make Up A Guy To Get Mad At, but we need to talk about its even more evil cousin: Making Up A Guy To Defend Yourself Against.

My favourite part of Hozier's concert was the intro to Nina Cried Power, during which he asked the audience to get involved in the fight against the Palestinian genocide. Here's to the artists who are unafraid to speak up 🍉

Using image-analysis "AI" to diagnose cancer or whatever sounds good until you realise they'll use it as an excuse to fire healthcare professionals and defund hospitals. They're trying to save money, not lives.

TIL The Rock surgically reduced his pectorals because he was insecure about the size of his chest. How come I've never seen any of those TERFs who whine about "confused 'girls' mutilating themselves with top surgery" complaining about him?

Remember this when they acuse trans people of being predators and groomers
JK Rowling, Terf author famous for writing about underage children, thinks LOLITA is a "Tragic love story" Not only is she a hateful bitch, she's a STUPID, hateful bitch.

I can’t think of a clever caption for this. It just breaks my fucking heart.

If I had a nickel for every time a man taller than me tried to steal my phone in a subway station but I grabbed them, pinned them against a wall, and demanded they give my phone back until they did, I'd have two nickels. Which isn't a lot but it's weird that it happened twice.

This is going to piss a lot of people off, but you don't have the obligation to write. If it makes your life better, by all means, do it! But if writing fills you with dread, stress, and feelings of inadequacy, it's okay to stop. You don't owe it to anyone to write--not even to yourself <3
if u see this, quote-post with your tips for writers that no one gives anymore because they seem obvious (even though they're not)

Very important thread on how media (even non-traditional media) will go outs of its way to exonerate Trump 👇
I want to dig into this, since my book VERY FINE PEOPLE comes out today, and it's in large part about precisely this sort of polemic trickery in service of bullshit apologia of supremacy. There's a sleight of hand at the start that catapults us into a massive lie.
