I'm seeing the "queer people need to be more CAREFUL about how they express themselves" discourse beginning earlier in some spaces this year, so this is your reminder that queer people don't need to be role models to exist in public spaces. We're allowed to be messy.

We're allowed to fuck up.

We shouldn't have to pass a vibe check, a background check, and a jury ruling of our peers to be able to go outside.

That's some fucking carceral horseshit.

Watching the 1982 stage version of Sweeney Todd has the side effect of me getting irrationally angry about how dirty the Tim Burton version did Johanna Barker. She is not your cute little porcelain goth bitch, she can and will shoot a man to escape an asylum and be the first to look upon the bodies of her dead mother and father before escaping to France with her devoted himbo.

People have been asking what they can do to thank Philly, should they sacrifice to Gritty or get a tattoo?

Nah. You can start by donating to Philly mutual aid groups though. West Philadelphia Bunnyhop can always use your support.

Popping on to say that L*uren W*tzke wants Tr*mp to call a national state of emergency over the election.

Because she didn't win.

Cry harder, QAnon Barbie. Lest we forget, QAnon Barbie is a flat-earther who hangs out with Unite The Right Nazis and was caught shoving heroin into various orifices.

Thread the first: safety backlash.

Y'all have seen my constant nattering on fash and alt-whiters getting mad about the "meltdowns" I've written for V5 and CtL2e and other, similar, games. Those same lads have melted down over @ShannaGermain 's Consent In Gaming. It's pretty easy to dismiss them, most of the time. The backlash bois down to "BUT MY FREE SPEECH" and misses the critical point that these are SUGGESTIONS and writers do not have the resources or the desire to be table cops

Look, if you hurt your friends, it's on you

Happy Valentine's Day. Zak has posted his statement, so I'm responding with some of my favorite anti-abuse resources. #AbuseIsNotAGame

For all y'all visual learners: The Duluth Model wheels. I've attached an image of the Power and Control Wheel. theduluthmodel.org/wheel-gallery/ The National Domestic Violence Hotline has some great definitions of abuse, as well as explaining the Power and Control wheel in further detail. thehotline.org/is-this-abuse/…

Some people asked for a continuation of my #LessWrong abuse thread. Some people told me I was polluting Kathy's legacy and twisting her words. Some people said I made up my abuse, that I threw in Michael Vassar and Andrew Rettek to get more views.

So I guess I'm continuing. Before I go on, I wanted to thank @davidgerard at @RationalWiki and the folks at r/Sneer Club for helping propagate Kathy's note. I also want to thank @bi_gendian for being an amazing co-spear carrier and friend.

#LessWrong and Effective Altruism are cults. I was abused by both Michael Vassar/Arc and Andrew Rettek, both of whom used @slatestarcodex 's writings to emotionally torture me.

Fuck Less Wrong.
