do people have no shame anymore?

it’s crazy how absolutely blatantly luigi’s constitutional rights are being breached and people seem more concerned about his appearance than a real, scary view of the power CEOs and the healthcare industry have over the legal system. like yeah he looks good in those photos i can appreciate that too but can we focus on the fact that the media is absolutely treating him as if he has already been found guilty. this could happen to anyone. anyone could be arrested over the death of a wealthy, influential person and the precedent being set right now is essentially that the prosecution can run wild and create documentaries declaring your guilt. like that’s really serious and scary.

“One must admit that American conservatives have truly proved themselves committed to white supremacy, male supremacy, and all other expressions of supremacist hatred and bigotry. They really truly do believe in the natural right of white property-owning christian men to dominate and possess everything and everybody else, and to punish and harm and menace and murder anyone who doesn’t comply.”

The Unmovable Sink

Another outstanding, insightful, and inspiring essay from AR Moxon.

The US having an entire city in the middle of the desert dedicated entirely to gambling sounds like a thing other countries would make up about the US as a joke but its real and no one bats an eye at it

I see this on every post on IGM (intersex genital mutilation);

"Omg how is this not the easiest lawsuit ever!"

"That sounds SO illegal!! That's a violation of a person's autonomy! "

"Sue that hospital into the ground!"

"This is medical malpractice!"

That's just the thing. It's not medical malpractice. At least not legally. Intersex people are mutilated under full support of the law in most parts of the world. It isn't just rogue bigoted doctors mutilating intersex patients. It is written into the standard practices and protocols of the larger medical establishment.

Intersex medical abuse is not just systemic it is systematic.

A lot of people genuinely do hate or dismiss romance novels because they think all sexual frankness in fiction is immoral and harmful, or because they think women (and only women) are too stupid to know fiction from reality, or because they think it’s gross and laughable for women (especially ones they don’t consider fuckable) to have sexual desires, or because they automatically assume that anything popular with women is inferior, or because they only care about fiction being formulaic or light entertainment when it’s something women like. This doesn’t mean that every romance novel is great and deep and progressive, but these people aren’t coming from a good place with their criticism and they don’t deserve a pass.

it’s always a good day to complain about English speakers
