i am very exhausted by disinformation about the cost of transition healthcare. it costs less than $100 for 1-2 years of hormones, depending on your exact sourcing. presenting HRT as impossibly expensive and inaccessible to people who need HRT but don't know how is equivalent to medical gatekeeping.

The ILWU in Hawaii got so good at organizing immigrants in the 40s that people were stepping off the boats with signed union cards already in hand.

“some people abuse SNAP” your soul is rotten

Fill your cup first!!!!

BREAKING: Donald Trump just directed the Pentagon to test nuclear weapons before meeting with China.

The US has not conducted a nuclear test since 1992 and we must not resume. This is a reckless decision that will only make us less safe and lead to a new nuclear arms race.

unbelievable that "cis men can get breast cancer" would be treated as an unrealistic impossibility or punchline and not a matter of life or death for people, all because this society forces you to be "a fixed binary sex" before you are a person

A portion of every dollar spent on Harry Potter merchandise goes to anti-transgender campaigns.

Marc Lobliner post on X: "Why the hell are we giving food stamps to 40 million people? Does anyone work anymore?"

SNAP isn't about "people who don't work." It's about people who don't get paid enough to live.

* Two-thirds are children, seniors, or disabled

* Most working-age adults who receive SNAP are employed—but in jobs that pay poverty wages

They would then make revolutionary speeches while shoppers gleefully enjoyed the discount. They called this "proletariat shopping"

NYT Magazine headline “‘I'm on Fire': Testosterone Is Giving Women Back Their Sex Drive - and Then Some There is no F.D.A.-approved testosterone product for women. Insurance won't cover it. Many doctors won't prescribe it. It's become a cultural phenomenon.”

when trans people take HRT to feel normal: “look at these depraved sex freaks performing their sick fetish in public, we should bully them out of existence”

when cis ppl take HRT so they can fuck real good:

Japanese fans making guides on how you can make a male character wear feminine clothes that alter their silhouette and make them look like a girl. literally trans girl fashion advice stuff. and all for the sake of yuri (your rival is opposite sex, so this way you can be a girl with a girl rival)

remote work is like birth control or UBI atp where there’s overwhelming research consensus they improve quality of life for people they apply to, yet access is impeded or blocked by the ruling class because the thought of marginalized ppl having rich full lives makes steam come out their ears

even if you arent a vegetarian you should be talking about beef and hog farms in the same tone as data centers. not to mention that food chains entirely built around industrial meat production in the us and canada also create food deserts and keep poor communities in malnutrition

anthony bourdain meme with the text "once youve looked at the emissions of the meat industry & how much agricultural output is wasted for that and how this poisons poor communities and destroys ecosystems you'll never stop wanting to beat a delicious onion and lentil mash for piyaji with your bare hands"

leftist meme with too much text

honestly the beef industry should crash because it is extremely environmentally destructive
