best quote bits ever! what a shit question.

My Internet Brain
This is where things I want to write go. They're often about feminism, or science and fancy data visualisations, or punk music, or the internet, or the Western Sahara, or things in the news that make me angry.
I also run a less scatter-shot blog about radical theory, strategy and useful tools at Tips for Radicals.
If I ever say anything that you think is shitty or prejudiced, please call me on it — I try to be a decent human being, but sometimes I fuck up, and it's good to learn. Unless you're calling me out because you're a bigot and you don't like what I say, because then I just won't care.
I rarely talk about things that need trigger warnings, but I'm trying to get better at posting them when I need to.
