  1. I have become so fluent in communism, having read so much postcolonial and decolonial scholarship, that I circled back to political theology, where I started; didn't I tell you I used to be a political dawah activist in Uni? I digress. Maybe. But men are so helpless and useless that I don't even have the energy to curse them anymore. One of these days, I should probably show people that code-switching is a skill you can easily master if you've been living with contradictions long enough; it extends beyond linguistics into epistemological registers as well.

  2. CW: CW: sexism, misogyny, academic credentialism

    I hate it.

    Whenever a qualified woman gets a prominent job, there’s always a little parade of men crawling out of the gutter to question whether she’s really qualified. And by "little", I mean big.

    An old white bloke with an office job questioning a master’s degree. A guy with “some college” challenging the academic worth of a doctorate.

    Seriously? 😂

    For some of these lads, the only qualification that seems to matter is apparently being male. What a spectacularly silly way to measure competence. Do we use centimetres or inches? ;)

    And, for the record: I don’t have a master’s degree or a doctorate either. Many of my students have had them, or worked towards them. I know perfectly well what an enormous amount of work, discipline and learning goes into earning one. I respect the hell out of it.

    I’m a hedge-linguist. 🌿

    I’m mostly interested in teaching, translation, and the practical application of my knowledge. I’m basically the plumber of sentence structure and conjugations. I'm Miles Edward O'Brien, not Jadzia Dax, so to speak. 🔧📚

    Yes, I probably should have done more than a weird assortment of bachelors. But then I discovered travelling the world, going out to teach people, having my own business, and frankly… that seemed much more enticing.

    People are different. :)

    Funny old thing, really. We might even learn something from that. :)

  3. Police officer arrested after tracking ex-girlfriend on Flock camera system over 2,000 times, authorities say

    and then over 200 times after an order of protection was issued.
    And this deranged male is walking about free!

  4. RE: c.im/@BBC/117157099306520659

    Not a single Trans person involved again, yet they're the only group of people punished over Woman's Safety

    How about the Cishet men with a bit of power? Why don't we keep an eye on them instead?!

  5. Confirming the obvious major vile violence issue across Australia - don't expect colonized colonizers like Pulinista and Namby Pamby to give two hoots, either - they support the white supremacist, imperialist patriarchy. abc.net.au/news/2026-08-25/ris #auspol #misogyny

    "Dr Meger's team looked at six extremist movements: #incels; #farright; #whitesupremacy; #farleft; anti-feminism; and religious #extremism. #Misogyny was the key ideology that cut across all of them."

    The rich WANT religious (and - cultural, i.e. 'racist') indoctrination.

    The rich pay the lobbyists - and fund the political campaigns - of the pols that make sure the rich get what they want.

  8. It was only when a male victim came forward that the Police bothered to investigate.

    "Jurors heard how the woman confided in a friend when she was a teenager and then went on to tell family members and a guidance teacher at secondary school.

    She made a report to the police in 2001, but the complaint went nowhere until officers knocked on her door 23 years later in November 2024 in light of allegations made by the male victim."

  9. You know how terrorist mass murderers are always discovered afterwards as having hated, threatened and beaten women? Well, the 18-y-o Fagersta school attacker killed one person. A 17-y-o girl.

  10. The Tates appear to have discovered a new form of geopolitical engagement: embarrassing military cosplay in Moscow.

    Tanks. Grenades. Flamethrowers. Russian insignia.

    All that's missing is the Kremlin whispering 'полезный идиот' from behind the camera.

    You can detect who is wearing these things because they'll be a creepy man or boy behaving creepily and wearing sunglasses indoors...creepily.

  12. “Cursed luck! —said he, biting his lip as he shut the door, —for man to be master of one of the finest chains of reasoning in nature, —and have a wife at the same time with such a head-piece, that he cannot hang up a single inference within side of it, to save his soul from destruction.”
    ― Laurence Sterne

  13. This was all known about Nathan Cofnas, yet all the Broadsheets dismissed that when they joined in on the digital lynch.

    (Incidentally, it is hilarious watching JK Rowling wail at the innate sexism of her allies, like..what did she expect?)

  14. #EricSwalwell resigned from #Congress in April after reporting from CNN & the San Francisco Chronicle detailed allegations of sexual misconduct.

    The Manhattan District Attorney’s Office & the Los Angeles Sheriff’s Department opened #criminal investigations into Swalwell in the wake of the reporting. The raids this weekend are part of a federal investigation connected to the claims of #SexualAssault….
