Regarding that twink getting railed in the Senate hearing room:

I can't be super happy because it's going to lead to various degrees of even more "they're sickly, sex-crazed vermin" discourse about gay men from both conservative politicians and just regular people. And OF COURSE it should not be his job to represent gay guys, as that is a role unfairly forced upon him by the marginalization of gay men...but it is a role he is in as a gay man working fairly high up in government, and he acted pretty grossly. Sex at work on someone else's desk is, generally, very bad.

On the other hand though he is an icon, a legend, and he is the moment. Having gay sex in the Senate is nothing short of an incredible and hilarious act of defiance, even if not intended as such. He got SPLIT OPEN right where RBG got confirmed to the supreme court, just like she would've wanted.

i feel like one of the Events that really disillusioned me from leftism — not as an ideology or set of ideologies but as a community — was when ruth bader ginsburg died on rosh hashanah and while all the leftist jews i knew were mourning the death of a prominent jewish figure on such a significant day, the non jewish leftists were mocking us, telling us we were “idolizing a war criminal”, laughing at our “religious zealotry” that made us “blind to her bigotry”, making antisemitic memes of her, and saying massively offensive things like “i hope her name is erased from the book of life.” leftist goyim looked up just enough about death and judaism to find the most offensive phrase they could and used it gleefully while the jewish community mourned.

so yeah. while i still consider myself a leftist, there’s a HUGE caveat that i am a jewish leftist. because i have seen firsthand how leftists abandon minorities, specifically jews, the second things become even the least bit complicated and nuanced.

The family of Ruth Bader Ginsberg emerges victorious

BREAKING: The family of Ruth Bader Ginsberg emerges victorious as the foundation that was planning to give the RBG award to MAGA billionaire Elon Musk and Rupert Murdoch cancels the award ceremony entirely.

Julie Opperman, chair of the foundation, said that "the last thing we intended was to offend the family and friends of RBG."

"Our purpose was only to remember her and to honor her leadership," she added. "And, while we believe each of the honorees is worthy of our respect for their leadership and their notable contributions, the Foundation has decided that the planned ceremony in April 2024 will be canceled."

Ginsberg's family slammed the Opperman Foundation last week after the organization announced its plans to honor the far-right figures. Obviously, RBG's legacy stands in opposition to everything that Musk and Murdoch stand for.

This is exactly the outcome that RBG's family was hoping for.

They previously said that the foundation had "strayed far from the original mission of the award and from what Justice Ginsburg stood for" and that it was an "affront" to her memory.

"Her legacy is one of deep commitment to justice and to the proposition that all persons deserve what she called ‘equal citizenship stature’ under the Constitution," the family in said in their statement. "She was a singularly powerful voice for the equality and empowerment of women, including their ability to control their own bodies."

The late justice's son Jim Ginsburg said that choosing Musk and Murdoch was a "desecration of my mother’s memory.”

"When you think of trying to create a more just society, which of course was Mom’s ultimate goal, those are probably about the last names that would come to mind," he added.
