- Reposted by Jude "DILF guy" DoyleIt feels worth saying that the thing that unifies men as disparate as Noam Chomsky, Deepak Chopra and Trump is patriarchy. Patriarchy, hatred of women, and the need to dominate them, persists across race and class status. Left movements refuse a robust analysis of persisting gender violence.
- I am here to remind you that to me, a middle-aged person, everyone under 25 looks like an actual child. I was recently served at a bar by a man who appeared -- to my aged eyes -- to be a freshman in high school. They know what they're doing when they hit on a teen, and they choose not to know it.
- Yes, @mattyglesias.bsky.social has also argued, in The Atlantic (of course), that older men pursuing sexual relationships with sixteen year olds is not pedophilia.
- IMPORTANT PUNDIT: While we all certainly agree that child predation is wrong, a 64-year-old pursuing a relationship with a 17-year-old is a gray are - ME, PEERING CONFUSEDLY A 25-YEAR-OLD FIREFIGHTER: What a nice hat! It must be fun to wear! AND to ride in the engine! Did anyone pack you a lunch?
- When I was fifteen, my friend and I were rude to a guy at the Ohio State Fair who was operating one of those Ferris wheels where the carts can flip upside down, and he pressed a hidden button that caused us to be upside down the entire ride. Carnies are terrible and powerful! Do not slight them!

- Without a major investment in publicly funded media or VERY well-funded worker-run collectives, we are all on a sinking ship. The problem is convincing the public that they're going down, too.

- Reposted by Jude "DILF guy" DoyleI read this, and I almost regret it. What do you even do with the knowledge that Epstein wanted and was trying to engineer societal breakdown via far right populism bc he thought it would benefit his sex trafficking business?
- I read thousands of pages of Epstein files this weekend trying to understand what he wanted out of his meeting with 4chan's Christopher Poole. Here's everything we know about Epstein's plans to dismantle the internet and, eventually, democracy. www.garbageday.email/p/here-s-how...
- Reposted by Jude "DILF guy" DoyleRape culture includes allowing rapists to be supported, like by supporting them. They are supported & held in place by many other people. It's not just the problem of individuals with a predatory nature, which rapists are, but a society who bows before them & keeps their secrets.
- Reposted by Jude "DILF guy" Doyleit's gender. the answer is that sexual violence is both the structuring logic of power in a patriarchal society and its chief enforcement mechanism, and there is no relationship of power more steep than adult/child-- the child's body is the archetypal site of legitimate, authority-producing violence

- Reposted by Jude "DILF guy" DoyleOn this day in 1976, Jenette Kahn, a comics outsider was installed as publisher of DC Comics, which was failing and in danger of shutting down completely. At the time I thought WTF, what sort of corporate skullduggery is this? As did most of comicdom. Man, were we all wrong. She's a legend.
- Reposted by Jude "DILF guy" DoyleYA fiction has had its time to shine, now is the time for 42 year old fiction, middle adult fiction, where all the plots and romance involve cheese and heartburn and back pain. The climax of each novel is finding a really nice sandwich, or finally figuring out where that thing went.

- Reposted by Jude "DILF guy" Doyleapropos of nothing in particular, @lilashapiro.bsky.social gave us a tremendous piece of journalism last year, and it's always a great time to revisit it and thank her for the work she did in bringing these stories to light.
- Reposted by Jude "DILF guy" DoyleNEIL GAIMAN FANS: Oh no! Tell us it's not true! NEIL GAIMAN: It ... (two years pass while he thinks) NEIL GAIMAN: isn't??
- I woke up from a dream where It Happened and people were celebrating in the streets and I had to personally inform Zohran Mamdani that, due to an obscure bylaw, he was the President now, but only if he kept his shirt off. If you're wondering how my subconscious is handling all this.
- I looked at the "Neil Gaiman Innocent" Substack so you don't have to, and this is most of it: Claiming that a *cover story* in *New York Magazine* was published without fact-checking, despite the fact that doing so would open them to a massive lawsuit from one of the richest authors working today.
- I haven't written one of those big MeToo pieces, but I've known enough people who have, and have gotten close enough to the reporting process, to know that there are tons of guys with well-known allegations who never get covered, because it's just that important to have an airtight case.
- There's no way that New York Magazine story made it to the public without multiple EXHAUSTIVE processes of fact-checking and legal vetting and two-week-long discussions providing three ways to substantiate one single phrase in the 115th graf. To ask people to believe otherwise is ludicrous.
- Reposted by Jude "DILF guy" DoyleThis Jack Horner. Who’s been known to the whisper network for some time now. There’s a reason I have repeatedly turned down writing about his work or him.
- Reposted by Jude "DILF guy" DoyleYou know, I just want to say as a survivor of sexual violence, that every time this stuff comes up it never gets easier.
- Look: Capitalism allows a few people to concentrate power and wealth to the extent that even ONE of them hating his trans kid has the potential to ruin millions of lives. That's terrifying. But patriarchy, which teaches sexual violence as an expression of power, is not exclusive to billionaires.
- It's really frustrating, as someone who's written about sexual violence for two decades -- always being dismissed as too sensitive, as selfish, as not "really" political -- to have a set of documents which truly show how rape culture runs our world, and ONLY have it parsed as a comment on class.
- The way this works is that, even if men DON'T have the power to subjugate other men or hoard vast wealth, they can console themselves by sexually violating women and children. That's what patriarchy is. It's the promise that even if a man doesn't rule the world, he's the oppressor at home.
- So the commentary on "elites" isn't wrong, and there truly is something horrible about a system that can create hyper-powerful ultra-predators and allow them to operate with impunity. But a lot of people you know have been hurt by predators a lot less powerful than Epstein. They also matter.
- Reposted by Jude "DILF guy" DoyleI am sure you all have great takes about Epstein. Really. I love you, but I will be hiding and muting all of them because, once again, it feels like the survivors have been reduced to child sacrifices for people to "be allowed" to hate the billionaire class.
- Reposted by Jude "DILF guy" Doylein retrospect in the wake of the epstein files being released, no wonder ‘me too’ was met with such anger and ultimately those in power it meant to target never face many consequences
- Reposted by Jude "DILF guy" DoyleWe know that 4more children from Liam's school are still in ICE custody in TX. But we still do not know how many children from MN in total have been detained by ICE.
- Reposted by Jude "DILF guy" Doyle“protecting women and children” means first and foremost “women and children should be property without autonomy, subjugated by men” there’s a reason why it’s literally part of the 14 words.

- Reposted by Jude "DILF guy" DoyleTo: Jeffrey Epstein Subject: Trans
- O cool The hypothesis that the elite were trying to segrigate trans people from society purely to keep us as sex slaves was real, but only for trans women since they see trans men as undesirable for sex and want them eliminated which is EXACTLY THE POLICIES AND RHETORIC WE'RE SEEING HAPPEN RIGHT NOW
- Now that everyone is watching "Waiting for Guffman," I'm going to be honest with you that I would wear all of these
- Back when people used to yell movie quotes at each other instead of posting memes, I said this a lot, and I hope Catherine O'Hara is proud of how many people I annoyed for her youtu.be/r5CvD76fmuE?...
- (When we were making "Dead Teenagers" I kept sending these and similar screengrabs to Caitlin Yarsky and the editors, because Neon Slasher Lighting is one of my hyperfixations and I wish to share its power with all)
- I'm going to go ahead and be a dick about this, even though this guy normally seems pretty smart: This is a remarkably roundabout way to avoid saying that a group composed almost exclusively of men sexually assaulted a lot of girls and women
- Is there some kind of solidarity men might have, one which affirms itself through the sexual exploitation and rape of women, and which is known to cut through traditional right-left boundaries? Buddy,
- I don't often say things are "un-American," and this is not new in a country literally founded on slavery, but this is... directly in opposition to literally everything we teach kids that America is about

- Describe your Bluesky account in a single image.
- Aside from everything else wrong with this, I can't get past the choice to represent "transmasculinity" with a shot of someone slowly turning into Doctor Manhattan

- Oh, my God.
- Fiona Dourif forever, but I do wish that her main Pitt plotline wasn't "McKay gets sexually harassed by an old man with a broken butt"

- Used to be my favorite writer, used to be my favorite book. But "litbro" was never a criticism of dudes who read, it was a criticism of dudes who wanted to maintain unchallenged white-straight-dude hegemony within Literature, and, by the way: lithub.com/the-last-ess...

- Reposted by Jude "DILF guy" DoyleBreathless reports on Twitter from Project Veritas & fellow creeps of infiltrating ICE watch signals. I thought, Oh, no, they found a couple of jackasses & are going to blow them up. But no, the "conspiracy" is that many people volunteer, take turns on shifts, and train at nonviolence.
- So, so much of the response to Good called her "a mom," even erasing her wife to make her seem more like a "normal" Wife and Mother. Pretti also has a family, but I haven't heard anything about them -- just about him and his values. He valued calling out sexism, so it's worth pointing out.
