  • A nation will always have issues with homophobia, because even if it’s not an enshrined position, it’s something that its constituent citizens can sometimes believe in.

    I live in Portland, Oregon, and I deal with transphobia all the damn time. And yet I’m explicitly protected by the law, which doesn’t mean all that much at the end of the day.

    Hence, trans pride.










  • The concept of death is not palatable to corpo-fascist advertisers. Death does not often sell products, and so, innocuous memes that are posted to websites need to have advertising-hostile language censored, in order to be seen.

    Would that we all literally murder billionaires, cause there’s thousands of millions of us and four hundred of them, but I do take comfort in the thought that this is precisely what keeps Peter Thiel awake at night.













  • I must be the only decent HOA president around, the way everyone else is bad-talking them. A couple months ago, I got all five buildings full of townhomes re-roofed, and came in under-budget by ten percent. I also got to pick the roof shingle color, and I went with deep black.

    I’m in this role cause I was the only person who showed up to the annual board meeting who wasn’t the board. Honestly I felt a bit like Michael from the Good Place—rest of the board vacated and then I had twenty-seven people’s homes in my hand? Very odd.

    But I’ve done my best to be a good steward to the neighborhood. I bet people don’t even think the weird old lady with a cane taking pictures of pretty stuff is the president. They just see me doing whatever I do and don’t even know.

    I think the difference between me and lawn-measuring karens is that I’m not a dick.
