Answering the problem of abortion — With the overturning of Roe V Wade and the subsequent onslaught on reproductive rights, many people, especially women and trans people are naturally going to be rather concerned. It’s not exactly a surprise that this would happen as it’s been on the Republican agenda for the last 50 years since…

Opening the gates of Sadism. — The Marquis De Sade is possibly my favorite author, I’d definitely say he’s the philosopher I enjoy reading the most. Even though I only discovered him in 2020 I’ve read multiple of his books, including the infamous and lengthy “Juliette”. Interestingly enough, despite his reputation as a philosopher, this wasn’t…

Lionesses of reactionary feminism — I’ve written about J.K. Rowling many times at this point and mostly I cover her really quite blatant transphobia.

Excitement and enchantment with reading — We all have books I’m sure that we’d love to get around. I think the problem for many of us who do read a lot is simply deciding where to go next. I can speak just for myself here and say there have been tonnes of times when I’ve finished…

The ‘complete eradication of transgenderism’ crowd make it up as they go — In the wake of Michael Knowles calling for the “complete eradication of transgenderism from public life at every level”, there have been two major reactions in response. On the one side, people are pointing out the obvious problems and implications of this kind of rhetoric. On the right, people are…

Conservative politics is built on hypocrisy — Recently, Jon Stewart has been making the rounds again because of a really great interview he did with Oklahoma State Sen. Nathan Dahm.
