       Anyone here attend FILIA? News on X makes it sound like a shitshow.

       @ninapaley Yeah. I spoke to lots of women, got lots of perspectives on things, found things I could help with and things to keep an eye out for, passed on some ideas and information, bought some things, got some tips, and generally feel invigorated.There were also some women there I thought were idiots, and some who were there to be performatively edgey, some who treat this stuff like a hobby, some who weren’t so used to the idea of having other women there who they strongly disagree with, some who were deep into some vague woo. But that’s always the case, and the point is to be a broad gathering where we can share things, focus on what matters, and nudge other women further along.I didn’t go to the party because that’s not my scene. Nobody is going to pass around on social media that someone had a really good discussion with another woman that changed how she will approach an issue in her life, or gave her the tools to shift a policy, or gave her someone to contact later and discuss it in more detail.
