I'm wired to the blazing contraption of a neutron star, huffing in the fumes of a dying world. My music taste also fucks. Happy Friday, world.

I dreamed I was a child and student. I got chased around a school by a teacher with rollerblades. No matter the tricks to fake them out there was no escape.

This complex had a basement with a metro. Despite my attempts to fake out the figure in the dream, I could not make distance.

Jogging broke into sprints and huffing. I couldn't breathe. Then ofc I woke up. Good morning world.

It would be easier to be sedated under medication to make life manageable, but I know I wouldn't be authentic. I wouldn't be alive in any real sense. I will survive the lows bc of every single high and rush is worth it.

I aspire to have as woke and intelligent of a collective of friends as possible. Even the less woke among them I will make more socialist and gay... Much like a conspiracy theorist once said about chemicals and frogs.

To be an adult is to realize the pervasive nature of patriarchy and transphobia not just in Argentina but around the world. One must include trans peeps in your feminism or you're simply a reactionary. So credit to those who lend their voice and actions to trans people!
Argentine footballer Rodrigo de Paul condemned the transphobic attack in the Palermo neighbourhood of Buenos Aires by sharing posts on his social media accounts. A group of approximately 50–60 people attacked trans women in the Palermo Woods. The attackers chased the women and beat them with sticks, stones and various objects. The attackers filmed the assault and shared it on social media, while the footage included transphobic slurs. At least six trans women were injured in the attack. The incident sparked widespread outrage in Argentina, and prosecutors launched an investigation into the attack.

Ofc, TERFs do not care about the socioeconomic conditions of women or any broader liberation. For them identity is an idolization and not what it is in function: a descriptor of the conditions of people in reference to others.

As always, I lead with empathy for oppressed people. And TERFs and those who never want to address the roots of patriarchy can fuck off.

Wisconsin bout to have a blue trifecta. A Brewer just won the Golden Glove. Another will win the Cy Young. My state stays winning. The sky is beautiful. My dick is fat. There is a lot of suffering in the moment, but I'm gonna put it on hold for a second and vibe.

Wisconsin is now blue, gang. Let's go 😤 I may be skeptical of the long-term impacts of representative democracy, but I am enormously happy whenever Republicans eat shit. And I will take even mildly better governance.
The trifecta. Wisconsin Senate Majority Leader Dianne Hesselbein, Governor David Crowley, Lt Gov Sarah Godlewski, Assembly Speaker Greta Neubauer, WisDems Chair Devin Remiker. A generational victory. The work of thousands, over years. All worth it.

Exhaustion will take me. It happens again and again. But sometimes I'm dopaminergic monkey swinging from entire skyscrapers to others. These moments are nice before the evitable fall.
