2025 Predictions. Ft. Dr. Philip McMillan

Raise your hand if you noticed this right away. Recently, the mainstream media has been reporting that alcohol consumption causes cancer. Alcohol consumption may well cause cancer and there are apparently multiple avenues by which this can occur aka multiple mechanisms of injury. A lot of things apparently cause cancer including pesticides and agricultural chemicals, airborne particulates, semen exposure, and cancer treatments including radiation and chemotherapy but I didn’t see anyone giving a fuck about any of that until about 3 minutes ago when RFK started talking about those things (all of them except semen exposure and cancer treatments that is, because ain’t no one interested in hearing about that).

Before about 3 minutes ago, cigarette smoking was identified as a the cause of cancer, but not because it exposes users and those in close proximity to them to airborne particulates and agricultural chemicals. Making that connection would cut too close to the (Big Ag) bone, as would the issue of genetic predisposition aka the legacy of DNA damage caused by industrial pollution including pollution caused by the manufacture, use and disposal of pharmaceuticals and so called nuclear medicine (Big Pharma). Here I would add that freezing anyone’s shitty, defective genetic material after being diagnosed with cancer and before cancer treatment so that they can pass along their shitty defective genes and predisposition to cancer (aka the fertility industry) is a horrific, myopic practice, but again, ain’t no one want to talk or hear about that.

But as always, one issue with the mainstream media is the issue of timing, as Dr. McMillan cogently inquires, why now? Even when what the media is reporting is factually true, we always have to assume we are being played with regard to the timing. Currently, anyone and everyone who pays attention to the mainstream news has a niggling in the back of their brain that alcohol causes cancer, and they know people who drink alcohol, probably including close friends and relatives, and probably even including themselves. People are going to expect to hear more of the same — in this case, cancer being front page news — and they won’t be surprised when it happens, in other words, we are all being programmed with normalcy bias, and they can program us however they wish. And that’s important.

With regard to cancer, as of now, we will have no reason to be alarmed, no reason to compare notes and discuss it with other people, and this — cancer and people increasingly being diagnosed with cancer — will not show up on our radar at all.

Hold The Line Ladies. Another Luigi Mangione Post. (Ft. EKKSTACY)

Exhibit 1. Woman empathizes with a man and/or imagines he empathizes with her.

Exhibits 2&3. Man demonstrates positive human qualities. (Creativity, activity, collaboration, etc.)

Exhibit 4. Man shits on all females.

This is an experiential/experimental post. Recently, one of the YouTube channels I follow dropped a short vid called “Slice of Life” (first vid above/Exhibit 1) which punched me square in the gut. Cornelius Vango, who I’ve written about before, is a female anarchist, squatter, traveler, artist and below the knee amputee who has recently begun what she calls “DIY HRT” or black market cross-sex hormones (testosterone) which caused her to have a psychotic break and she has now lost so much weight/body mass that her prosthetic leg doesn’t fit anymore. In my own estimation, she lives a chaotic and hellish existence as a homeless disabled woman and I’m not so sure she would disagree with my assessment (except that she identifies as transmasculine nonbinary and uses pronouns that do not correspond to her sex).

In this short, she edits footage from her daily adventures — of existing/trying to exist as a homeless disabled woman — into a video compilation set to a song by black male musician Ekkstacy. Her footage gave me terrible anxiety and Ekkstacy’s soundtrack reminded me of the soundtrack of my youth circa 80s/90s which also gave me anxiety but I was moved by both. As I am wont to do, I spent a couple of days exploring Ekkstacy’s music catalog and found his 2 most popular songs (Exhibits 2&3 above) and watched a couple of interviews. He is Canadian and has no notable accent when speaking but sings with an inexplicable Euro/British accent and in a familiar alternative 80s/90s style that sends me reminiscing every time.

Insure/Ensure/Assure. Let’s Talk About Medical Coverage.

Let’s talk about health insurance for a moment since it’s currently in the front of everyone’s mind. People are currently thinking and talking about so-called health insurance because last week, an American insurance company executive was apparently assassinated on a sidewalk in NYC and some percentage of internet is absolutely giddy about it. The remaining percentage is feeling smug and self-righteous because life is precious or something, or because violence is bad. Let me just say preliminarily that violence in and of itself is not bad mkay, oppression is bad.

To the extent that anyone’s oppressors use violence as a tool of oppression, oppressive violence is bad because oppression is bad. Violence, in the sense of making sudden physical contact with something, unless you also think that sports, eating and acts of self-defense are bad, is not bad on its face. It is extremely suspect, in fact, for anyone to claim that violence is inherently bad from within a context of a more or less global patriarchy (and capitalism) where patriarchal diktates are backed by violence by design. In my estimation, what these people are really saying is that violence should only flow in one direction and that violence flowing in the wrong direction is bad. Violence flowing in the wrong direction — back to the oppressors — is wrong and bad but normalized violence, or violence flowing in the normal, correct direction from oppressor to oppressed is perfectly fine. It’s so fine (normalized) it’s basically invisible, innit.

Also, in a more or less global patriarchy, where patriarchy has been called a necrophilic death cult, life is most certainly not precious so let’s stop occasionally pretending like it is. If life was truly precious, things would look very different than they do today. But I digress.

Reframing Dishpan Hands?

This needn’t be a long post. I have recently been diagnosed with pellagra, a severe vitamin B3 (niacin) deficiency that’s normally easily treated with diet and supplements. I’ve known I had this for at least the last 3-4 years when I developed the classic pellagra rash called “pellagra gloves” which looks like extremely chapped skin on the backs of the forearms, wrists and hands. The defining characteristic of a pellagra rash, as it were, is the defined edge of the rash which ends suddenly above the wrists in an obviously demarcated line. While it is uncomfortable for sure, a pellagra rash doesn’t hurt or itch like extremely chapped skin would and it does not respond to moisturizers at all. The only treatment for pellagra and the pellagra glove rash is to supplement the diet with B3 which sounds easy enough. For most people it is easy enough, provided they have access to B3 and can absorb it.

From what I can tell, pellagra is a starvation disease and is usually associated with simple malnutrition caused by not-enough food and/or unfortified diets based on corn and rice and in the United States has been linked to Southern (usually black and brown) poverty. Untreated pellagra leads to dementia and eventually death. People who have access to food and eat properly can still be malnourished if they cannot uptake nutrients from food and drink, and therefore Crohn’s and other patients with malabsorption issues are at risk for pellagra and that is my situation exactly.

When I feel well enough to eat at all, and even when I do not lose nutrients via vomiting and diarrhea — all of which I have mostly accomplished via 10 years of daily cannabis use — I am still malnourished because my dreadfully compromised gut cannot uptake nutrients from food. For Crohn’s and other patients with malabsorption issues, the “treatment” for pellagra is to treat the underlying disease which is easier said than done. The only thing that has worked for my Crohn’s is medical cannabis and I am currently about at my limit of what I can tolerate and certainly what I can afford.

Lest anyone fret that the cannabis isn’t working well enough, thus implying that Western medicine would be better, did I mention that the conventional treatment for Crohn’s — chemotherapy and biologics — also cause pellagra? Because they do. Cancer chemotherapies are well known to cause malnutrition via vomiting and diarrhea and cancer chemotherapies and similar treatments are also used for Crohn’s (and these drugs therefore also don’t work on the symptoms of Crohn’s, which symptoms include but are not limited to vomiting and diarrhea, and debilitating fatigue and brain fog/chemo-brain, mirroring the “side-effects” of chemo more or less exactly, but let’s not talk about that). Meanwhile, the “cure” for Crohn’s pellagra would be to cure the underlying Crohn’s. Of course, there is no cure for Crohn’s and since they don’t even know what causes it, there will probably never be a cure.

How Does This Exist? Ft. Drama MD

Someone in the comments suggested that the content creators behind “Drama MD” must work in a hospital to get this so right. Recently, a Patron sent this to me along with this, all by Sillypoo via Kiwifarms. She said the medical vids seem “made for” me. Indeed. Having watched the Drama MD videos twice apiece I do not understand how this content even exists.

Who even could create this content, that is pro-woman, anti-medicine and anti-trans all at the same time? Concurrently anti-medicine and anti-trans content suggests that the creators are conservative, but that doesn’t explain the feminist content of Cybergirlz, the video linked above. The feminist content of Cybergirlz is completely at odds with the anti-medicine message of Drama MD, so feminists couldn’t be responsible for it all, obviously. At least not any brand of feminism I’m aware of.

This bizarre trifecta — anti-medicine, anti-trans, and pro-woman — is very unlike any content I have literally ever seen before, except for the massive amount of content I have personally created myself, on this blog and elsewhere. This might even be radical feminist content. Internally consistent, actual feminism. Mind blown.

If anyone knows how this content came to be, and how any contemporary feminist can be openly both pro-woman and anti-medicine at the same time, and continue to exist on YouTube or anywhere, please feel free to enlighten us in the comments below.

MAHA-HAHA. Pardon my Schadenfreude. A 2024 Election Post.

“We are mass-poisoning our children.” — RFK, Jr.

Well, I guess the election results are more or less official, as Kamala Harris just left the podium following her brief concession speech. In her speech, she addressed young people’s sadness and disappointment with the outcome so that’s been done. If anyone reading here is sad and disappointed, I’m not going to tell you not to be. I’ve felt that way many times in the aftermath of a Presidential election.

I felt it acutely the first time Trump won, back when Hillary Clinton seemed poised to become the first female President of the United States and we got President Pussy Grabber instead. It was sad and disappointing on steroids. As I often am, I was shocked but not surprised: it was a physical shock to the system that Hillary lost since she was favored to win, but I cannot say it was a legitimate surprise. We are living in a more or less global patriarchy afterall. So yes, feel your feelings, be sad and disappointed if you want to, or if you can’t help it. I was right there with you following the election of 2016 and I can relate.

But a lot has happened since 2016, hasn’t it. In this post, I will attempt to remove any confusion around the reasons Kamala Harris lost, because while sadness and disappointment are understandable (and transitory) confusion is definitely not.

Jerry Brown ’92. On Dems, Suffrage, and Medical Fetishism.

John Campbell on so-called Turbo Cancers and their likely cause: COVID mRNA shots! Fucking Democrats.

As most people are probably aware, it is election season in the United States. My phone has been blowing up with spam, my YouTube experience is constantly interrupted by rich people begging for money, and people are asking each other intrusive election-related questions and taking it personally, for some reason, when they don’t get the answers they want. My friend asked me yesterday if I was going to vote and I said I wasn’t, and the interrogation began.

She told me that she had voted on various local propositions and told me what she thought about abortion, minimum criminal sentences and killing mountain lions. At least she thinks she voted one way or the other, she reported that the propositions themselves and their propaganda campaigns were so confusing that she wasn’t even sure if she was supposed to vote “yes” or “no” to get the desired result. Yep, that sounds about right.

For my part, I told her that I was so traumatized by the tranny politics of the Democrats that even as a lifelong Democrat, I would never vote for them again and that was even before Democrat-led COVID protocols. And before the Dems watched impotently as we lost Roe when guaranteed conditional abortion access was the only good marginally useful thing about them. I refuse to vote for the Democrats ever again and I would never dream of voting for a Republican, so as far as I can tell right now, my voting era is behind me.

AITA

Am I the asshole for thinking that r/AITA, r/NoStupidQuestions and other internet forums are actually just data mining operations and/or a training ground for artificial intelligence? This needn’t be a long post. Recently I have come across a couple of threads that made me even more certain that the internet, specifically the points of interface between people and the internet where actual humans are invited to input natural language data (opinions mostly) exists only to entice people to train for-profit artificial intelligence products for free. To be honest, the data mining and AI training function of the internet hardly seems controversial at this point, but sometimes examples are helpful.

The r/AITA subreddit (Am I The Asshole) whatever else it may be, and whatever it may’ve once been, seems very obviously to be a tool to explain social mores to whoever will listen, and we know that artificial intelligence is always listening. I can’t think of a single reason that an actual human would really need or want a subreddit like AITA since people are going to do what they are going to do regardless, and since 2020 or so, humanity is split down a very fundamental line. The mums on Mumsnet have been asking each other if they are the asshole for probably 20 years IIRC, which may or may not have begun organically. The Reddit version has been online since 2013 and may have seemed like a good idea at the time, but I have to ask, is this really necessary and also, what is this natural language data probably being used for besides sussing out who is and who is not the asshole? And besides its entertainment (and drama) value, obviously.

Clearly, the unwritten rules of society would be difficult to explain to anyone, including to artificial intelligence, and difficult usually means expensive, so having unpaid labor doing it for free would seem to be a rational solution. And since most unwritten rules apply exclusively to females, because the humans (read: males) don’t have to do anything that’s not written down, harnessing unpaid female labor would seem to be more or less required here and that is what we often see.

Nice Job, Jonquil Jones. Moron Disaffected Doctor Suicides.

This was just posted today, it’s a memorial and discussion about the life and death by suicide of a female doctor over COVID censorship. The doctor’s name was Jackie Stone. Jackie Stone was a middle aged woman and established physician who was seeing patients in Zimbabwe well before the COVID panicpanic. In the midst of COVID, she was punished and threatened with professional censure and criminal incarceration over her decision to defy medical authority at the time, including implementing a COVID treatment protocol which included supplements and established drugs, which protocol eventually included Ivermectin. Apparently, although her protocol proved to be successful at treating acute COVID-related respiratory disease and preventing death, and with no notable side effects mind you, she lost her license over it.

A few weeks before her death, and just after hosting a highly censored medical summit this past summer, she was interviewed about her experience and she disclosed that she felt hopeless about the future of medicine and her place in it. She believed that Big Pharma had taken full control over the medical profession and that during COVID, corporations exploited the doctor-patient relationship in order to con the public into believing corporate propaganda that the COVID vaccines were safe and effective. Based on her experience, she also suspected that doctors would likely be replaced by AI in the future, because AI easily follows an algorithm whereas real, human doctors use their intuition, judgement and discretion and a very tiny percentage of them end up being whistleblowers against their profession.

Notably for me, this doctor seemed shocked and dismayed that she and others who were critical of the corporate and government response to COVID were erased, and particularly how easy it was to erase them. She felt the weight of this dilemma acutely and recognized — not felt, she knew and she was correct — that despite her experience with problem solving and her very personality and identity as solution-based, there was probably no solution to this particular problem. The problem being industry capture, and she recognized that her industry has been completely and likely permanently captured by corporate interests and Big Pharma and that there was probably no stopping it.

Childless Cat Ladies PSA (Self Cleaning Litter Boxes are Dangerous)

I couldn’t watch most of this video but I did read a bunch of the comments. Apparently, there are several brands and several designs of self cleaning litter boxes that are unreasonably dangerous when used as intended. Specifically, there are pinch points to catch heads, limbs and tails of the animals that use them, and overly powerful motors that keep moving once your cat is caught in a pinch point, causing serious injuries and death from crushing, amputation, and strangulation. For obvious reasons, some people are calling these guillotines for cats. In the comments, the creator of this video reports that Wayfair, an online homegoods marketplace, had a dozen listings for these kinds of litter boxes and that as a result of this and other videos like it, Wayfair has now removed all its listings for these Cat Guillotines and is no longer selling them.

People are trying to get the listings removed from other marketplaces as well, but particularly Amazon seems to encourage these kinds of items and the people who sell them, who are often fly by night “companies” that remove or bury negative reviews and then simply switch accounts as needed, and continue selling whatever it was that pissed off so many (or all) of its customers. These items are often less expensive or counterfeit versions of other items, where the original items are reasonably safe. Sometimes, the offending companies steal the logos and branding of the better items, intending to dupe the customer into buying an off-brand or unsafe version of another product. I won’t say any of these mechanical litter pans are safe, but there are reviews online that conclude that some are safer than others. In the case of these guillotines, reviews stating that the buyers’ cats were injured or killed are deleted as “spam” or the buyers are bought off with money and promises as long as the negative review is removed.

Also in the comments of this video are dozens if not hundreds of users reporting that they use these items or other versions of self-cleaning litter boxes because they have cats but the “pet parents” themselves are chronically ill and cannot expend the energy to clean an analog litter pan as often as it requires. And that’s a tough nut. Obviously, most of these chronically ill pet parents are women. There are a lot of reports of ME/CFS and other chronically ill patients who regard their cats as their “anchor to life” and who buy these items intending to reduce their own mental and physical load, and foreseeably, these are often the same people who, being oppressed, impoverished and often unable to gainfully work, will jump at the chance to get a more affordable price on an off-brand or counterfeit item because they can’t afford the real thing.

Died After Living With. What Is It For = What Does It Do?

Reminds me of the old times. A million years ago, when I was creating and maintaining feminist content, I talked a lot about intent. Mary Daly is the first writer I saw define intention in a way that wasn’t straight gaslighting: once you know the result of your actions, and you keep doing it, the result is intentional. From that, I proposed that we can always answer the question of what anything is for by figuring out what does it do? There is really no need to go any deeper than that and beyond figuring out the effects of whatever policy or practice, attempting to further mine anyone’s intent is simply unnecessary.

In the case of the recent linguistic sea change where we no longer say anyone is suffering from a chronic, terminal or ultimately fatal disease, and we no longer say anyone died from anything (instead we say people are “living with” various and sundry and that they ultimately die after having lived with whatever disease ultimately kills them) to figure out the point of this very obvious change, we only need to figure out what it actually does. What it does to people’s thinking, what it does to people’s acting, the knock-on effects of changing the language and thus the ways we think, speak, act and believe about chronic, terminal and fatal disease. So what are the effects? What does it do to change suffering from and dying from to “living with” and “dying after living with” serious disease?

Died After Living With. #Newspeak #Propaganda

Newspeak alert. In the last year or so, maybe even in the last 6 months, I have made note of some significant language-drift, where people “died after living with” whatever chronic, terminal and obviously ultimately fatal disease. No longer does anyone die from an illness, they simply die abruptly and unexpectedly following living. No longer does anyone suffer from anything, they are just living their awesome lives and then drop dead for no reason. Here is former YouTube CEO Susan Wojcicki dying after living with lung cancer for 2 years. Did she die in a car accident? Did she commit suicide? Domestic violence? Heart attack? It doesn’t say. Obviously, the cause of death is implied — she died of cancer — but apparently, we don’t say that anymore. Shannen Doherty, it’s been reported, also died after living with cancer.

Weirdly, in the last few months, after a very long time of having done it differently, we have obviously started using temporal language — this happened before or after that — and stopped using causal language — this happened because of that — when discussing the fatal effects of chronic and terminal disease. As a writer, this very obvious sea change caught my attention. As a chronically ill person myself, who suffers from Crohn’s disease and hopes to ultimately die by suicide and not in intractable pain, vomiting feces and unable to care for myself (IOW the terminal stage of Crohn’s) I was initially very offended by this Newspeak because of how it invisiblizes suffering and the terminal nature of what well people often consider to be chronic illness. Clearly, when anyone says “chronic” they mean not-serious and unimportant.

When I Googled, I saw that the Cancer Industrial Complex is still saying people die from cancer. Huh. Thinking about that for a second, I see that makes perfect sense, seeing as how when people “die from” cancer, they are frequently (almost always?) sickened and killed from the fucking cancer treatments, including immunity-decimating chemotherapies, dangerous and invasive surgeries and “treatment” with man-made nuclear waste. I would love to know how many people actually “die from” cancer afterall. In Shannen Doherty’s case, as I have written about multiple times, Doherty likely didn’t just develop cancer out of the blue: cancer is a known “side effect” of the fucking treatments including immunity-decimating chemotherapies for Crohn’s disease.

Again With the Childless Cat Ladies. A Thought Exercise.

I don’t know about anyone else, but for me, the realization of women’s enforced sex (not gender) role as the producers of human biomass and male generational wealth does not inspire hope. The recognition of women’s worth within a more or less global patriarchy, which “worth” is both huge and nonexistent at the same time, and completely outside of our control, is devastating. The full, actual reality of women’s station, the reality that has been reduced to an unreal milquetoast “cat lady” conversation is devastating, completely devastating. Do you feel it? Does anyone actually feel the devastation of more or less global female enslavement — to funnel our reproductive capability into furthering male interests — or are they just mad that some dorky politician said something mean?

In my view, and knowing what I know, the above image of what is thought to be an ancient fertility goddess and similar images are just confusing. Women went from being revered as the creators of all life to being literal slaves, functionally enslaved domestic servants and homeless prostitutes how? Women were once fertility goddesses but now pussy is worth a $5 hit of crack, if it’s worth anything at all. I have long assumed this was a function of time and that this change occurred over hundreds of thousands of years. I had believed that $5 pussy — or pussy as a commodity at all, and women as essentially animated garbage — was a characteristic of end-stage patriarchy, and that this was the logical endpoint to a very long history of global male supremacy/male rule.

But what if it didn’t actually take hundreds of thousands of years to get where we are today? The above photo is published in this article entitled “The 160 Year Mystery of Europe’s Ice Age Queens.” The URL indicates that this article was originally entitled “The 160 Year Mystery of Stone Age Venus Figurines”. The caption under this photo is “Some Venus figurines have carved marks on them, thought to be illustrations of prehistoric clothing.” I once saw a blackpilled feminist comment that the “carved marks” often seen on Venus and similar figurines look a lot like bindings or chains. I can’t find the photo she used, but it was similar to this one and the “chains” were even more pronounced.

She concluded that these Venus statues likely represented enslaved women from a very long time ago, and that the Fertility Goddess trope was therefore a ruse. She surmised that ancient women’s fertility was revered (valued) but the women themselves never were. In other words, women were probably always enslaved. There was never a time that we weren’t slaves for men. I’ve never forgotten that.

Re Re Childless Cat Ladies

In my last post, I wrote about so called “childless cat ladies” and how under a more or less global patriarchy, women’s concerns related to reproduction just do not matter. That post is honestly foundational reading IMO and will be necessary to the understanding of this post, so I hope people will go back and read if they haven’t already. In this post, I would like to address the response to the “childless cat lady” comments, which response has been swift and brutal, but myopic and will ultimately prove ineffective because the response is stupid and misses the point. People are missing the point about “reproductive choice” for women and they are being invited to miss the point.

Honestly, I can’t help but wonder if the 2022 removal of Roe protections in the United States intentionally laid the foundation for this current conversation because it’s just too perfect. Women have been reliably missing the point forever, but following the loss of Roe, now their ignorance is fortified by rawness and rage. American women have been primed and ready to explode over this for two years. Awesome. A pressure cooker analogy seems apt here (the point of releasing pressure is decidedly not to create meaningful change and rather explicitly to avoid it. Your dinner on the ceiling, I think, would be a meaningful change).

In this article on Huff Po, one woman responded thusly to what she clearly read as a personal attack against herself and all similarly situated females who have “chosen” not to reproduce:

Women don’t exist to fulfill your baby-making fantasies, said Margie Wirth, 57, who has no children and lives in New York. ‘We don’t owe you or the world a baby. Furthermore, we don’t owe you an explanation. The idea that a woman’s worth is tied to her ability or decision to have children is patently offensive, insulting, and downright absurd.’

But Margie Wirth is wrong, isn’t she. In a more or less global patriarchy, women as a class do, in fact, exist to fulfill men’s baby making fantasies. Women do, in fact, owe the world not just a baby, but all babies. Women literally owe our wombs to the continuation of the human race. About owing an explanation? Irrelevant! No one cares why, so why bother explaining? About being offended, insulted and finding it absurd? Irrelevant. No one cares about how Margie Wirth or any woman feels about our station in a more or less global patriarchy as the producers of biological heirs and human biomass — meat and bone for the grinder. No one cares, Margie. No one cares.

Re Childless Cat Ladies

Generational wealth = intercourse + time. Basically.

I would like to remind everyone what’s at the root of the male preoccupation with female reproduction, including legal restrictions on abortion and contraception. And the male preoccupation with intercourse including rape and the demonstrable fact that in a more or less global patriarchy, rape is completely normalized (read: not a crime). And the root appears to be this: under a more or less global patriarchy, which passes generational wealth along paternal (not maternal) lines, males will NEVER accumulate generational wealth in the absence of biological heirs. Women, as the means of production of human biomass, also produce meat and bone for the grinder, meaning, consumers, human capital and labor for the Man to do with what he will. And it matters not at all what women think about it.

We do this — produce men’s biological heirs and meat and bone for the grinder — whether we want to or not, and whether it benefits us or not. If women didn’t willingly submit to intercourse and (re)production, it would be forced on us. So whether we like or want (heterosexual) sex or not, and whether we like or want kids or not, and whether we would prefer not to be mothers (or not) or whether we prefer to be “childless cat ladies” (or not) is actually completely irrelevant to everyone except ourselves. We, individually, are the only ones that care about that. We, individually, are the only ones that care what happens to us. Get it?

Sad monument to nothing = bachelor pad + time.

No, I really don’t think most of us get this at all. I don’t think most women can even fathom how little our individual preference or “choice” matters in the grand scheme of things. I don’t think we can fathom that women’s personalities, predilections, preferences, talent, or anything else about us — the “I” people refer to when thinking and speaking about themselves — does not fucking matter to the Man (or to men) at all.
