Hm, is there a different phrase for misgendering someone as trans when they aren't? Or the same phraseology?

I mean, the accuser is obviously transphobic either way, just rarely had the occasion to consider what is respective when someone is called trans who isn't.

Much like reverse racism is not a thing, misgendering is just misgendering no matter what direction you do it in. Things like this are helpful because they can be used to demonstrate how transphobic mindsets hurt cis people too. You can always count on the gators to be the goofus to our gallant.

I went back to look it up, because I thought I remembered it from back when Miller was a favorite punching bag in the LF political cartoons thread, and the man has five children.

There has got to be something better he could do with any money in his possession than throwing it away to "own the libz."

They're so brain poisoned by late capitalism that they can only imagine taking action in the context of consuming and merchandise and brands.

I will perform an act of ritual consumption, exchanging money for some mass-produced toy with a particular media branding on it, but instead of playing with it or enjoying it I will destroy it. This will really show those people I just gave my money to.

I think I've mentioned it before, but years ago, I attended Wizardworld Chicago with a press badge, and as a result, I got an insane number of small- and self-published comics thrown at me, occasionally literally, over the course of the convention. Some were okay, some were good, some were basically jumped-up scribbles bound by hand and made with a photocopier. I still have a couple, one of which had a really good cover but the interiors were basically FF7 fanart done in ballpoint pen.

And somehow, Johnny Gonna Save Comics here has not cleared that bar. I hope to hell he's only about 13.

You're overthinking if you're looking for reasons why people on the extreme far right burn books and art. They have form in the area.

I haven't been to a mainstream comic con in many years but yeah the small/self people there were just so bad and so earnest, and it was clear that they only ever read a particular variety of superhero comics.

Fortunately CG have pooped themselves to such a degree even if an artist shared their views they would be likely to keep it under wraps because they enjoy making consistent money from actual comic companies instead of hoping for six figures from an IndieGoGo. Thus their big gun remains EVS, whose work reminds me of those mid-90's Image house artists.

No seriously, the crowdfunded book is finished, the printer just lost the disk, thankfully I have a back-up. It's a Tibetan monk with an eidetic memory of the binary code of the graphics. So if you can just kick a little more money in so I can hire a sherpa to take me into the Himalayas, I can have him chisel it into a stone tablet, then I can ship that to CERN and they'll use the large hadron collider to send the data back in time, so you'll get the book even faster.

No they don't.

quote:

The earliest use of the name "Niger" for the river is by Leo Africanus in his Della descrittione dell’Africa et delle cose notabili che iui sono published in Italian in 1550. The name may come from Berber phrase ger-n-ger meaning "river of rivers".
