imagine being a (near) billionaire, living in a castle, and needing to sue someone ... bc they made a tweet about you? dude has .05% of her following but her skin was soooo thin she had to cry to her lawyers. Joanne is the weakest woman alive. Just absolutely pathetic.

I would like to publicly apologise for a previous Twitter thread where I interacted with JK Rowling on matters relating to the transgender community. I have now removed these tweets and would like to apologise to JK Rowling directly for causing potential upset.   (1/3)

I am letting you tech bros know now that I am not playing with y'all this year. You want to be misogynistic, racist, or discriminatory? I am going straight to your employer.

Prioritize spending time with people you feel safe enough to be soft and imperfect around. Seek out and cherish people whose love is not contingent upon you performing a role for them. Prioritize relationships with room for your whole self, and hold that space for others.

Three of these beautiful people were murdered by their parents. In general, two thirds of trans people murdered knew their assailant (@hrw). Keep that in mind when you hear about laws where a teacher must inform parents if their child requests different pronouns in class.

Brianna Ghey wasn't the only trans teen killed recently. Just in the U.S., Ariyanna Mitchell, Katie Newhouse, and siblings Jeffrey Bright & Jasmine Cannady all lost their lives to violence. Every one of their names should be remembered in the fight to end trans dehumanization.

Nearly screamed 😂 Gender Criticals have now decided that the Bible's homophobic bits are ok because they're actually just transphobic

Went on linked in. I feel fake. Everyone sounds soo polished there. It’s uncomfortable for me.

It’s going to happen, and you won’t be able to block/mute him.

It feels unstoppable. Big companies train expensive computers on your content with an explicit goal of not having to credit you, link to you, or even tell you. So search engines don't become a portal to the wider web, they become the one and only place you need to go, and monetize how they please. It's all packaged up so that people see it and use it and go "well boy howdy that's awful neat". And it is neat. Just neat enough that no criticism of it will ever matter or effect the trajectory.

this is the most perplexing UI i've seen in a long time
