Won’t ever forget it. My stomach turned instantly.
Make a homophobic joke on this tweet and I will block you.

HOW MANY TIMES until you understand that you can’t overthrow systemic oppression by recreating it you cruel morons
It’s just astonishing. Astonishing how many times I have tweeted this in a year. Astonishing how it never stops, from real people.
I withdraw “cruel morons” and replace it with “examine your own complicity please.”

Thank god it’s not 1/1/2020 yet because I have defied a resolution already.

We need to talk about this.

Consider yourself a feminist? Just take a drink, a deep breath or a Dramamine and click on through.

Because OH MY GOD. 22convention.com
And I’m just gonna that the idea of a conference called “Make Women Great Again,” taught by the alt right and men’s rights movement, has left me well and truly speechless.

Listen, I blocked two people for saying this in the last two minutes, so let me just make it clear:

if you are still a Republican after the last three years, I can't help you, I am not interested in your opinion, and you're cool with white supremacy

All Republicans ARE bad.
There is no rationalizing or justifying continuing support of the GOP given its current posture, its complicity and its total capitulation to Trump.

Let alone if you're a lawyer, because MY GOD, you know what the party is doing to the rule of law. YOU KNOW IT.
And if you're going to come on to my feed and tell me I'm bad for knocking Joe Biden, but you still won't leave your party when it's exonerating a criminal and participating in the destruction of democracy, well, you've got some nerve.

5000 words and a round of edits today and now I'm on to more mundane questions like whether I should recycle this dress for NYE in LA.
It has a certain muppet-esque quality to it but it is hella comfortable.
.@TobyGialluca has given it the thumbs up, so that's something.

"Environmentally friendly," she says. "Non-disposable fashion."

Sugar daddy hankco but instead of searching for a daddy Connor ends up meeting Hank when they ride on the same train and Connor, exhausted from Uni and his two jobs, falls asleep against CEO Hank’s wool-coat covered broad shoulder. Hank’s too amused to wake this poor stranger up.
Hank doesn’t drive - after he nearly got Cole killed in an accident he hasn’t been able to get behind the wheel. And being driven around by someone hired to do it seems embarrassing. So he takes the train, and pretends he lives a normal life like everyone else here. That he
doesn’t regularly handle money worth the life savings of a whole cartful of people put together, that there are people in here who barely make in a year what he makes in a month. He knows he got lucky. Most cops who retire early don’t go on to make bank. Hank and Jeffrey had

1/ No Chains On Me: Surviving Coercive Control

by @thefayth, cross-posted to facebook.com/thefayth, twitter.com/thefayth and thefayth.tumblr.com on Nov 11th, 2019

{In honor of Lynnette McFadzen, former BiNet USA President and my friend, and fellow survivor.}…
2/ …Today I announce myself the survivor, and veteran of intimate partner violence with mathiastck, my former husband. While doing so I’ll also introduce a term, co-abuse, and identify how lack of awareness of co-abuse leads to further abuse.
3/ And there’s a story about me and Jeffrey Epstein in there too.

I’ve written these words many times, and published a detailed account of my own attempted murder last year for a smaller circle of readers; but this is the first time I openly accuse my ex-husband,…

There are those who will tell you our society's biggest problem is the lack of civility extended by those horrified by this, toward those who would cheer this.
anger is a healthy and
appropriate response
to cruelty

Anyone my age spent decades learning the warning, the lament: "and I said nothing, until nobody was left to speak."

Now that the time has come, many seem to approach it neither as warning nor lamentation, but as a strategy.

Thanks Distinguished @taylorakinwale for your wisdom and candor. Under normal circumstances I wouldn’t respond to any tantrums, especially one coming from people mired in hypocrisy and duplicity. But for the respect and regard I generally have for all, I surprise myself often.
The Tweet in question was made in a heated dialogue when the Online herders were doing their stuff and madam was basking in the euphoria of their blind support. To the prejudiced it may have connoted different meanings but I’m not responsible for how people comprehend my tweets.
I am only responsible for what I wrote which I have made a thread on severally to clear the air and have even engaged madam @obyezeks onwhen she bombarded my DM & badgered me with capitalized insults and belligerence which till today I couldn’t make sense of. Yet I explained...

🎭Thread: bits and pieces of translation of “Transparent and Masked” gacha story✨
“Buchou. Oh no I mean Wataru-san, I love you. Please become my lover.”
“Hm~...... 3 points!”

Hokke then decided it would be more meaningful to ask Wataru about what was good about his acting instead of what was bad bcos if it was truly inadequate, Wataru would have given 0 pts
Wataru commented that Hokke is oddly positive as usual (note wataru’s expression)

He went on to point out what he thought was good, mostly abt how Hokke challenged a line & phrasing that he normally wouldn’t say, but also ended by informing Hokke that 100pts was the full pts LOL

Reza Zarrab watchers: We're less than an hour away from Day 2 of testimony. On Weds., we heard of a "45 to 50 million" bribe to Turkey's economic minister and "a few billion" in complex bank transactions. Day 1 recap here, & some thoughts/updates to follow courthousenews.com/turkish-gold-t…
* ex-economic minister - I ran out of room in the tweet for additional context, even with 280 characters. Lots of revelations.
This appeared on the docket yesterday: Halkbank manager Mehmet Atilla's attorneys "object vigorously" to a future expert witness's testimony on the rationale of U.S. sanctions against Iran - replete with references to terrorism documentcloud.org/documents/4315…
