July 5, 1852, Frederick Douglass was invited to address citizens of his Rochester, NY on the 76th anniversary of the signing of the Declaration of Independence. Douglass used occasion to remind audience of the U.S.'s continuing enslavement of millions of people. This speech is often read July 4th.

Got two new rings today. #feminist and #wtf. What do we think? I like em.

I voted for the "nasty woman."

The internet consists of many bags of douche.

Shoutout to trans folks. You are amazing. Live like hell. 🏳️‍⚧️

With #pride2024 just around the corner I'm expecting a lot of brands and peeps are gonna find themselves in this position... (I made this gif but feel free to download and share it whenever appropriate).

More from my old novella I started reading, "Forget the past, remember the future."

I started reading a novella of mine I wrote in my 20s. It's what I would call a supernatural thriller/horror superhero story... maybe? I was expecting to be disappointed in my old writing. I'm not. Not at all.

About 13 years ago, Google started pumping all kinds of things into their results and it frustarted me. I switched to Bing which was still just a simple search engine. I've only used Google for local business info since. But that stuff is only good because it's manually input by local businesses.

Well that's it for Google and for huge swathes of the internet as we know it. RIP wapo.st/3WDpAi8 🎁

Some deep thoughts from Abraham Lincoln. My man was ahead of his time. So prolific.

What are we wearing to the bluesky cocktail party?

In 2003, I was a freshman in college, and started working on a comedy sketch show we called Two Hosts and a Model (a cross between The Daily Show and SNL). Here's a clip of a report we did that made fun of our hometown and all the "fun things to do." (I'm the one in the all-black suit and glasses).

I can't remember... is it possible to upload video to Bluesky?

Someone: How come they get to do *some terrible thing* but I don't get to do *some other terrible thing*? Because that's an awful way to behave. We're not supposed to be out here one-upping each other in terrible behavior. Do better. Not worse.

Not surprised. But this is good to have said with science.

For MSNBC, I wrote about a new study out last week that ought to change the conversation around trans women in women’s sports. www.msnbc.com/opinion/msnb...

Opinion | The Olympic committee studied trans athletes. Conservatives won't like what it found.www.msnbc.com Few anti-LGBTQ policies have taken off as quickly as those banning trans women and girls from women’s and girls’ sports.

It's about time to change that Glade Plugin.

🧵"So, I feel like there’s a disconnect between those with mental disorders and sane people. I know, right? Well, technically, there’s a lot of disconnect. But one thing I’ve noticed is the disconnect with regard to burning bridges, cutting off contacts, dissolving relationships." 1/3 #mentalhealth

Burning Bridges for Fuel — Weaver's Deep Thoughtsweaversdeepthoughts.com Or why some depressed or bipolar folks burn bridges.

Yeah. Wow. That's actually it. AI in a nutshell. Dang.

I saw someone call it mansplaining as a service, not just the unwanted explaining but the high inaccuracy and high confidence, and I do think that explains both who makes it and who is pushing it

In the early 2000s, amid sequel releases of The Matrix, I had a joke about making Titanic 2 and Gladiator 2. They are making Gladiator 2 and I'm sorry to everyone, if this is my fault.

Good evening y'all. Several years ago I collaborated with Mahal Amanda Adams and we made a great short music album. We called ourselves Blue Solace and the album Feels Like December. I wrote lyrics and she composed and recorded. Here is our song Anthem. youtu.be/xWmj6R755OY?...

I’m disappointed this post of mine didn’t get any love. I was dang proud of it.

I don't know who you are or why you have a blue checkmark, but what I do know is that you are a transphobic asshole with no particular set of skills.
