“It’s a hell of a thing to wake up to.” @echozaurora just sent me this email from her doctor, who doesn’t have the resources to defend her license from the Missouri AG going after trans people. She’s in her 30s and has been on hormones for over a decade.
Fuck the Attorney General of Missouri and, again, every scaremongering “journalist” who helped fuel this nightmare with their “just asking questions” style hate mongering

Marianne Williamson is a weirdo for sure, but I don't think she's any worse than like solidly 80% of Democratic candidates, and she has probably accomplished more tangible good than most of them
As far as i know, they had a commercial that had a single trans person it it for a small portion of the video and the right-wing reacted about how you'd expect.
I think it culminated in Kid Rock shooting up a bunch of Bud Lite, which is a hell of sentance for multiple reasons.

My thing with new agey kooks is that there should be some pushback against kooks. It's how they stay kooks, and not the standard bearer for the party.
I'm totally fine, I encourage it even, with pushing Marianne "you have AIDS because you're sad and if we cure it remember it's mostly because we prayed hard enough" Williamson as far from the national stage as is humanly possible. If coming across as angry is what that takes, well then fuck her, she's a fucking ghoul.

That's my issue is like her message harms people because people believe her quack science don't get treated an die. She's like Wish Jenny McCarthy.
Also was a byproduct of oprah, so she goes in the dr phil bucket.
I would like some money because these are artisanal nuggets of wisdom philistine.

Yeah but can we also get the same level of vitriol for Harris, Buttigieg and most other Dem front runners that seems perfectly willing to throw children in front of trains to look fair, balanced and professional?
Or I should say, who do you want to be the standard bearer for the party?

Is it working
I mean, so far yeah.
Do you think it was the angry people on the internet that have sidelined her as a viable political candidate or is it maybe that she's inherently a kind of silly candidate that nobody was gonna take seriously anyway
I mean it's just hard for me to get angrier at "people who listen to her could die" than at "directly wielded power to enforce a drug war that saw untold scores of people killed," like I just flatly refuse to think she's a bigger threat to people than a prosecutor or a "real" politician, I just don't have it in me
I wouldn't vote for her, I think she's a dipshit, but I think getting angrier at her than at people with more blood on their hands is perhaps misdirected energy
Surely this will make the problem go away for them
That is a lot of words to say nothing.
on the other hand i think it says they will be avoiding trans people from here on out
Maybe but it seems that Budweiser gained from this whole debacle and it definitely seems like a Gillette/Nike situation where an anti-woke boycott was maybe even the intention and this is just some triangulation where you're trying to cool the fires without actually saying they did anything wrong or backing off.
I guess we will see which path seems more profitable to them.

This is what they all got mad at but there is some good history
Had a real internet in the real world last night when I saw an elderly lady buying steam cards to pay off a scammer who probably locked her computer. The clerk was trying to help her and she got super aggro in a way I've heard in my job sadly on most days.

Coming soon! In our effort to capitalize on emerging technology, & to maximize public safety in the subway system, you will soon see our newest rookie, officer K5, patrolling our transit system - offering you an additional layer of security & assistance
Breaking: Prime Minister Kishida was just evacuated from the scene of a planned campaign speech in Wakayama following what appeared to be an explosion. Eyewitnesses said they saw a man throw an explosive device, followed by the sound of an explosion.
Kishida had not yet started his speech, and is safe. Video shows a young man, holding something that resembles a pipe bomb, being tackled by security. No injuries yet reported.
Further: speech site was at a port in Wakayama City, and a few hundred onlookers had gathered to watch. A young man threw a cylindrical object, which let out white smoke; people fled. It then seemingly exploded with a loud noise. Appears no one was inured.
Looking at Williamson's political positions on Wikipedia, she seems pretty alright like
Yeah the problem with her mostly is that she used to be pretty involved in the like Oprah self help stuff that was always lets say bad at best. These days she mostly just talks about like wages and the environment and stuff.

Oh, is Japan finally waking up and thinking about maybe doing literally anything about some of its problems?
That being said, there is a lot of media over the decades from Japan depicting exactly this type of unrest occurring
Last fall’s Kamen Rider Black Sun literally ends with
the thinly veiled Shinzo Abe allegory (complete bastard, grandfather was involved in war crimes they tried to cover up, etc etc.) literally getting merked in a back alley for revenge against his many many crimes against humanity, both public and private.
then it has a sequence where a girl is trying to hold a one person counter protest against a crowd of anti-immigrant protestors, who is knocked over by oblivious passers by until the protagonist, who for much of the show has kind of been an activist in the Greta Thunberg mold, helps her up and takes her to what is her training camp for militant revolutionaries, made up mostly of kids that society has abandoned where they’re literally learning combat tactics and how to make explosives, while a speech by Not-Abe’s successor, himself coded as just a continuation of his predecessor’s corrutption (but a slicker, more professional take on it counter to Not-Abe’s sleeze) plays in the background about Japan must remilitarize because it can’t depend on other nations to protect itself and how non-violence has never been then answer.
this is a show Toei released in the wake of the Abe assassination and distributed internationally via Amazon Prime. Which, given the tendency of Japanese media companies to delay or even completely suspend media that is even remotely similar to real life major events makes that show even more fuckin’ wild to me.
Literally a Kamen Rider show that says “the Japanese state as led by the LDP is irredeemably evil and must be destroyed.”

Hiring a trans spokeswoman. And the obvious shitbag backlash that resulted.
