This sentiment, the "we do not demobilize" is what this campaign needs to preach from here on out. Getting the work done is going to require EFFORT. Taking the campaign's infrastructure and applying it to advocacy and political pressure will be crucial - mobilization is the right word.

"After we win in November, we do not demobilize. The rich and corporate interests who tried to buy this election with the millions they stole from our pockets will want to see us fail.

We won’t let them." - Chi Ossé

The video game crash of 1982 *also* had a gendered outcome. Video games (and computers) became heavily, overwhelmingy marketed toward white middle-class boys.

"You make the best of it all and hope you can help make it a little better for the gurl after you."

- Miss Major, 2023 💔

One of the things I hear with some younger trans people I know is they feel, "I'm gonna get this surgery, and I'm gonna learn that way of speaking, and I'm gonna be done." You're never done. If you're a straight, cisgender person, you're never done. Things are always happening that have the potential to change you. So all I am today is not who I'm gonna be tomorrow, because of the things that happened to me today and later tonight. People forget that. "Oh, after I transition, I'm gonna be through." Well, good luck with that. 'Cause if you're through, then it's time to leave, you know, and I don't wanna go anywhere yet.
I'm in my seventies. Why didn't I stop? Number one is community. My gurls. I've had moments of thinking about stopping, but I didn't. I made sure I would step back, reju- venate myself, and then got back out there, and that's how you make a way. Our stories are not all the same, but the destination is: to get some place where we have some peace and harmony, and we can be at ease with ourselves and the people around us. You make the best of it all and hope you can help make it a little better for the gurl after you.

Another good time to remind people that “tear gas” is a term of copaganda that police, the military, and its manufacturers use to obscure that it is a dangerous chemical weapon internationally banned for use even in warfare.

watching the UKs green party elect an actual unafraid leftist into leadership and see party membership double in under a month is once again endless proof that if you stand up for leftist causes and treat the electorate like adults, you’ll win people over easily

I'll definitely get myself in less trouble in the future if I say things like "Keir Starmer, I'll never forgive you" instead of "I'm going to do Doctor Who Series 1 episode 5 to 10 Downing Street"

You can, however, change people's genders with your writing if your heart is pure

i don't know why it's just so fucking funny to me that a spokesasshole for a computer program used about 90% of the time to make busty cartoon porno truly believes his beepboop machine is "real work" when, like, "receptionist at the veterinarian's office" isn't.

don't worry, Sam Altman is confident that his efforts to eliminate vast numbers of jobs will all just sort of work out for the unemployed, eventually, possibly after they starve to death, which is technically a form of having it work out

Worried that AI will destroy work? Well, Sam Altman asks if you've considered what a farmer from half a century ago thinks of your job, first.
