The photo is a 1974 photo of Leslie Feinberg, from the FBI file on hir. I've written a piece on my interpretation of Transgender Warriors and Trans Liberation, but I don't think it's quite polished enough, so I'll post it later. Instead, I'll go over hir FBI file: https://s3.amazonaws.com/NARAprodstorage/lz/dc-metro/rg-065/6282555/Batch0010/6282555_100-HQ-480756.PDF.
The FBI thought Feinberg could be violating the Communist Control Act, advocating the overthrow of the government, and engaging in rebellion. Needless to say, a hero to all of us. Feinberg was a member of the Workers World Party (the party still exists, but more notably PSL split from it), which apparently wasn't openly advocating for the overthrow of the U.S, they just think it's inevitable.
My favorite line? "captioned subject is believed to be a white female, who became male through some kind of sex change operation, and is possibly homosexual". Some interesting language choice, and it's an interesting snapshot into the evolution of Leslie's identity.
The FBI found Leslie's place of birth and birthdate from public school records. It's a bit of an interesting look into all of the many places the FBI can get their information, along with how information like that was so much more patchwork before the digital age.
"Interview of subject is not being recommended because of the questionable nature of his sexuality". Hmm, interesting.
It's interesting how their investigation spanned multiple cities, from Kansas City to NYC to Bufffalo to Boston. It probably involved quite a few officers, though I'm sure it wasn't the main focus for all of them.
There's some interesting mention about changes in Leslie's gender identity. Born a girl, for a time wearing a beard and mustache, then going back to "she". I'm sure we all know, Feinberg's gender didn't stop evolving there.
"Subject reportedly contributes all extra money to WWP", Leslie definitely was dedicated to the cause. Leslie doesn't attend NYC WWP meetings, but the FBI doesn't mention why.
The FBI isn't immune to typoes, Leslie did some "criminal terspass" that garnered some attention.They wasted some time checking if Leslie was in Boston, but verified where Leslie in NYC lived by pretending to be a part of the Voter Registration Commission.
There's a whole 43 pages of documents, all just from 1974-75. There's plenty of interesting tidbits in there, so maybe check it out.

I'd probably enjoy multiplayer games a lot if gamers weren't such assholes
This is my biggest issue with them too, even my friends get too invested and dickish for pvp games sometimes.
like 5-6 years ago, some friends of mine were really into fortnite, and asked me to play. I played one time and they just got so genuinely mad and snappy about everything I left and told them I don't wanna play a game that makes you act like this, we play games for fun not to do this. I've had the same experience with other games and other friends too, a lot of those games just make people into somebody I do not wanna hang out with
Yeah video games are extremely low stakes so there's no point to getting mad. Really gamers should just humble themselves and learn to take an L
I know right
My partner only has a shitty laptop so unfortunately i can't play most games with her. We tried playing ck3 multiplayer together but it would only work on the slowest speed lol.
I've played co-op with Ash a fair bit on the Souls series and we beat the halo games on legendary on local co-op. It can be hard to find good co-op games and a lot of communities are pretty toxic at times too.. so it's not really appealing
If my partner gets a good computer or steam deck eventually i should play the halo campaigns with her. I don't think she's ever played them and she already enjoys shooters like the og doom. And yeah the toxicity can just bring me down in public lobbies.
OG doom is good stuff, especially with newer wads. The halo series playthrough was fun to do co-op would recommend.
Yeah I had enough of that on the 360 lol
Lol i did experience mw2 lobbies and it's not something i'd like to go back to.
I wouldn't actually since so many are monetised to within an inch of their life & I am bad at Quake 3
But g*mershit sure doesn't help
real. i used to be obsessed with counter-strike but i'd always queue up with at least one or two close friends, ideally a full stack. i can't imagine what compels people to solo queue competitive games lol.
