Me after reading poisonous discourse that sets humanity backward for 48 hours straight: why do I feel bad

I've had a lot of thoughts over the past week, but I keep coming back to the fact that I've spent the last decade trying to explain to editors and newsrooms why covering the internet is important. And they didn't listen, so now we are here. passionfru.it/internet-cultu…

I know everyone’s worried about what dudes are watching online rn but the gender war stuff is not limited to men. videos like this, which are all like, “hey girlies, that man you’re dating is in his ‘feminine era’ bc he wants to split the check” are everywhere and so regressive

We need to have an frank talk about what it means — for journalists, for activists, for SWers, for anyone criminalized — that the owner of this platform will become a government official. And what that means for DMs, bookmarks, burner accts— anything we thought of as "private"🧵

omg the body keeps the score fr

We think that all memory is stored in the brain. But our study published today in @NatureComms shows that all cells—even kidney cells—can count, detect patterns, store memories, and do so similarly to brain cells. My first (co)corresponding author paper!🧵nature.com/articles/s4146…

calling women with male partners “male centered bird brains” living in “barbified shackles” is crazy btw

if u have a boyfriend or a husband u cannot be apart of the 4b movement. i beg u guys to do ur research on these movements and stop gentrifying feminist movements to appeal to male centered bird brains that are perfectly fine living in their barbified shackles

This might sound like a stretch but a lot of bigoted platforms got legitimized and rose to fame via the Heard/Depp trial. Trash YouTubers, grifter ‘lawyers’, streamers, podcasters, etc grew their platforms by leading pile ons against AH, then were able to expand beyond the trial.

the rise of incel culture and Twitter being sold did so much damage to over the past four years. It’s truly a shame.

Elon Musk's mom just deleted this tweet that sad of a NYT reporter that he "Sadly...is an American Vietnamese reporter"

🚨if you voted in a swing state and you get a call from an unknown number in the next 24 hours, answer it!! it might be a lawyer trying to cure your ballot so it can count (hundreds of 1000s of ballots get rejected for things like digital signatures not matching what’s on file)


Kat Tenbarge Reposted

I can’t believe I’m saying this, as a guy who thinks picking up calls from random numbers should be against the law, but if you voted in Nevada, pick up your phone!

Apparently, they are calling these young voters to get them to cure their ballots, and they’re not answering their phones. Try texting!

Sex workers have been sounding the alarm about #Project 2025 since the beginning. For @thenation, I spoke to adult performer, workers rights activist, and @corntelethon co-founder @thesiridahl about #HandsOfMyPorn and how the GOP is targeting sex workers thenation.com/article/archiv…

We are ready to fight for the contract we deserve, and we are sacrificing our paychecks to do so. Please donate to our strike fund. gofundme.com/f/nyt-tech-str…


Kat Tenbarge Reposted

We are on ULP strike. We gave @nytimes management months of notice of our strike deadline, we made ourselves available around the clock, but the company has decided that our members aren’t worth enough to agree to a fair contract and stop committing unfair labor practices.
