In headlines like this, it is clear for all to see that "outside agitators" is simply the term politicians use for "people the police intend to attack."

They always harp on their tired rhetoric about "outside agitators" because the thing they fear most is—solidarity.

The original Dear Abby was a badass, esp for her time, she was a champion for queer acceptance in her column and was very big on telling parents to listen and accept their children instead of punishing and fighting with them. But also this response is a banger. Top 10 advice columnist responses of all time.

We cannot help but believe that were every law, every title deed, every court, and every police officer or soldier abolished tomorrow with one sweep, we would be better off than now.

They want to make it impossible to participate in women's sports without invasive and humiliating investigation. They want women to be uncertain whether someone will accost them for entering a woman's restroom while appearing insufficiently feminine.

They want the ability to critique and control women's participation in the public sphere. It's fucking horribly regressive, and it *will* get out of hand quickly. It already is.

Transphobia and especially transmisogyny probably are currently the greatest threat to women's rights.

Transphobes wish to create a world where women have to constantly prove that they are "really" women and show sufficient femininity before being allowed to participate in public life.

@skinnylatte Dang, that's good. Thank you for sharing.

Two Days Talking to People Looking for Jobs at ICE | Yanis Varoufuckice

This is a disgusting country, I thought, irredeemable visually, psychically, morally, and ethically, and whatever is likable about our people’s warm patter does not in any way forgive what we have done to the world. Furthermore, it isn’t hard to bring politeness and evil into view at the same time.

I mean what if they built those puzzles as a ceremonial thing knowing full well they were easy to defeat but culturally expecting that nobody would try to rob a grave? what if they were just autistic and it was an excuse to engineer something like that?

fantasy ancient tombs: we put all our most valuable treasure behind this elaborate mechanical puzzle you can solve in 5 minutes (nobody succeeds at this for 8000 years)

Earth ancient tombs: we put a huge fucking stone block permanently sealing the entrance, because it’s a fucking tomb, why would anyone go to the trouble of bypassing a huge block of stone just to desecrate a tomb? what kind of monster does that?
