I went to a bookshop and I got dizzy at the amount of books on stuff like “astrological feminism” “reclaiming womanhood through numerology” and all that shit…… One was called “cosmic fanny” or for my french speakers out there, “foufoune cosmique”. I think the fight against patriarchy is going really well

she franken on my stein til i 'hateful day when I received life!' I exclaimed in agony. 'Accursed creator! Why did you form a monster so hideous that even you turned from me in disgust? God, in pity, made man beautiful and alluring, after his own image; but my form is a filthy type of yours, more horrid even from the very resemlance. Satan had his companions, fellow-devils, to admire and encourage him; but I am solitary and abhorred.'

The vampire equivalent of the “accidentally ate the fake fruit” faux pas.

*sits down to write a smut fic* The plot of this smut fic is that Character A believes himself abandoned by God.

Fun history facts: One of the 31 people arrested at Stonewall on June 28th 1969 was American folk singer Dave Van Ronk, who was not at the Stonewall Inn at the time and was cis & straight as far as I'm aware. He'd been eating dinner at a nearby restaurant when he noticed a riot happening, said "Well I suppose I should go see what the fuss is about," stepped outside, and immediately started throwing bricks at the cops.

This is an illuminating usage of that term, 'ally'. It seems to have become polite to append the label to any person who is lukewarm or better toward your existence as a member of a minoritized group (as opposed to being actively hostile to that existence), but that's not really accurate. A disapproving bystander to you oppression isn't meaningfully in an alliance with you, they're at best a neutral party and as we know from Desmond Tutu, “If you are neutral in situations of injustice, you have chosen the side of the oppressor.” The very concept of alliance is one in which, definitionally, when an enemy comes to attack you, your ally attacks them right back to stop them in their tracks. For this reason we have recently seen the distinction drawn between lukewarm allies and red hot accomplices. I would like to say that in order to be worthy of the title our allies must make themselves actively complicit in the actions necessary to create and maintain our liberation, like our man Van Ronk did on Christopher Street. Happy Pride.

I wish I lived outside the economy like bigfoot
