A lot of white people are going to cower behind the idea that this is just a mistake or incompetence... "They didn't know!"
Do you know how you get companies to care about being careful to not make mistakes like this EVER again?
You make them scared
Also this wasn't a mistake
This is racism

As a long, long, long, long, long time Converse buyer, I will never buy a Converse product ever again. I am sick of the virtue signalling to racists. I see this and I see a man hanged, a white robe that could be a klansman's robe and light shaped like a KKK hat. What the actual hell!?!

The real tragedy with me being a person who genuinely tries to be kind even when others aren't is... I'm very funny when I'm being mean

Rocket Money is a great case for being very careful about reading the fine print
Bc when they are lowering your costs they sometimes can represent themselves as you in negotiations with other companies and lower costs by cutting services and entering into contracts on your behalf
Which is bad

Hey you...
If being harsh and mean to yourself was going to work... it would have already
You cannot hate yourself into a version you love
Part of breaking generational trauma is deconstructing the idea that punishment is an effective learning strategy
Especially for ourselves

Makes me think less of YOU
Misogyny and fatphobia used against evil eilte people doesn't hurt them
It does contribute to a culture that views women and fat people as a punchline

A friend's kid (older teen) recently came out as Ace and so I've been reflecting on youth exploring their identities especially asexuality
(Tbc being ace is lovely and wonderful)
And it's interesting and kinda charming how often it is a step in younger queer folks journeys

Attending the same college just a few years before either of us was Rachel Corrie who was murdered by Israel with a bulldozer while she was trying to protect Palestinians

How dare people use vocabulary appropriate to their culture and life to describe AHHHRT!!!

Scratching my head over influencers calling OOT Link “AI” and Epona “yassified”. It seems stemming from a lack of art critique vocabulary or limited frame of reference outside of pop culture.
Apart from OOT being a pun on ceramic ocarina, Aonuma said that the visual is to evoke nostalgia (懐かしさ).

I didn't want to deal with my ridiculously thick hair for a while so I shaved my undercut without a guard
but an unfortunate side effect is now I have Velcro head and my wife's very long and very curly hair keeps getting caught in my undercut
I basically just brushed my wife's hair with my head! 💀

Your strengths are almost always also the source of your weaknesses
And conversely your weaknesses are often the unfortunate side of your strengths
And it's important to recognize this when you're reflecting on self improvement bc when we don't we tend to unintentionally self sabotage

Good thread
Reject judgement from people who believe they have the authority to determine the bounds of your autonomy
And when you encounter an identity that makes you have a reaction here's what to do...
Ask many people with that lived experience why that identity makes them feel whole and seen

Butch, femme and futch, as identities do, have changed quite a bit since their origins because queer communities are living things.
Anytime someone gets shitty about how people identify now based on a (usually overly academic or outright false) talking point it's worth just rejecting it outright.

No kill shelters are not morally superior
They are often kinda like green washing but for shelters they want to make you feel good and clean/pure
For instance many send dogs they cant home in a few months to kill shelters

I’ve never understood anti-kill shelter sentiment like if anything they need your support the most, the more resources and money they have the fewer animals they need to euthanize

Hey you can just say "women's healthcare is terrible" you don't need to invent new terms that specifically exclude trans women. I assure you, our healthcare is even more shit than healthcare for cis women.
I am begging cis women to stop trying to be "inclusive" by excluding trans women.

One of the issues with the DSA gaining more popularity is a resurgence of people (mostly white cis men) believing that capitalism is the root of all oppression
And so I'd just like to remind folks that most oppression is far older than capitalism

When we rush and panic we forget the things we've painstakingly learned
Things like the necessity to hold nuance and context or look at things from alternate perspectives...

Stop looking for single, easily addressable causes. They don't exist for anything that's actually important.
All actual progress requires us to grapple with complexity.
Failing to address complexity is choosing to live in a fantasy world.

How we do the work to create change matters almost as much as getting the work done
All historical movements had huge flaws that we now can see clearly
If we don't want to fall into the same past failures we have to interrogate the ethics and values that guide us - both as individuals and a group

A lot of the rhetoric and approach of online leftism seems to have been inherited from the “rationalist” internet movements, which always had some white supremacist undercurrents.
Which, again, is why: balance your internet leftism with offline organizing, for perspective and grounding.
