Capitalism sucks. Especially when its a 3 session free program and the 3rd session is mostly just marketing for a $1k service like you didn't join a free program because you ain't affording $1k. It isn't helpful, this shit is stressful. Went for help, left with doubt after being reminded I'm a poor.

Update! A lot of folks in our community are feeling the impact of losing SNAP benefits during the government shutdown, so we will be giving away free grocery store gift cards at our Resource & Resilience Center this week. Cards will be available until supplies run out.

Be super cool to not have to DIY without blood work, but I don't live in the US that allows trans healthcare that I keep hearing exists. I live in the other US where people on medicaid aren't allowed to get trans healthcare. Yeah, so great here if you're not poor or disabled and live in a red state.

hi, musical artist here! please replace your streaming with plays on a different platform or buy the artistsโ€™ music on bandcamp instead of just canceling your spotify and then consuming less music! the latter only hurts artists. k thanks

Screenshot of Grokipedia's definition of "gender". 

Gender
Gender refers to the binary classification of humans as male or female based on biological sex, defined by the type of gametes producedโ€”small motile sperm in males or large immobile ova in femalesโ€”and associated reproductive anatomy, a dimorphism fundamental to sexual reproduction in mammals including humans.[1] The term originates from the Latin genus, meaning "kind" or "sort," and was historically synonymous with sex, denoting these reproductive categories.[2][3] In mid-20th-century medical and social scientific contexts, gender became distinguished from sex to describe psychosocial roles, behaviors, and identities potentially independent of biology, a conceptual shift originating in clinical observations of atypical cases.[4][5] Empirical evidence, however, supports biological sex as a strict binary in humans, with disorders of sex development (intersex conditions) affecting roughly 0.018% of births and representing developmental anomalies rather than viable third sexes or a spectrum undermining dimorphism.[6][7][8] Gender rolesโ€”social expectations and behavioral tendencies linked to each sexโ€”exhibit cross-cultural consistencies rooted in evolutionary pressures, such as higher male investment in mating effort versus female parental care, yielding differences in aggression, spatial abilities, and mate preferences.[9][10] These patterns, while modulated by culture, demonstrate a biological foundation, with gender primacy as a perceptual category appearing universal across societies.[11]

Part of why billionaires shouldn't exist is because wealth power lets them do whatever they want (from financial fraud to horrific violence like p**dophilia), making them lose the ability to distinguish between man-made powers of entitlement and god-like fantasy powers to literally re-write reality.

Putting a Democrat with a Nazi tattoo in the Senate normalizes Naziism in our federal politics for a long ass time.

All these recent stories about secret Nazi group chats? Anytime that happens going forward will be met with "But Platner."

It's not a purity test. Think through the consequences.

Uh oh, Emma having her Ana "don't call me birthing person" moment over Nazis wasn't on my 2025 bingo card, but now her doubling down is and I hope she reverses course. Weird how she's trying to angle towards Vaush's and other debate bro audiences. Stop trying to bring bigots in to destroy us.

Looking at the list of people that liked patravey's disgusting statement is disturbing and unsurprising. A mix of liberals and maga. People saying your rights matter for the aesthetic and others that are more open about their hate.

Israel is not "testing" the ceasefire, they are breaking it, just like they always do.

The only thing Israel has been "testing", for decades, is the moral fucking decency of Western media and governments, proving quite thoroughly that they are the same genocidal racists they've always been.

At the Chicago area ICE detention center in Broadview this morning.

These aren't detention vansโ€”they're vehicles full of Illinois State Police. Local cops are staging for a morning of protest.

Supposedly, demonstrators will be banned from 25th St today. Fence on Beach came down a few days ago.

Really surprised to see NC listed in those ranks. It gets called a battleground state a lot and Dems actually put a tiny effort into it, unlike the more southern sibling, but it ain't a progressive state by any means.

I loved To Your Eternity seasons 1 & 2. Episode 1 of season 3 does nothing to make me want to see episode 2 or anything else past season 2. As far as I'm concerned the show ended when season 2 did.
Fushi would've been retraumatized with the kid as possessive as Kahaku. But stays for belly rubs. No.

A post by Wes Streeting, sharing an article about BASH BACK trans vandalizing the FiLiA 'feminist' conference in Brighton, with Streeting adding:

"This kind of violent direct action is disgraceful. It is designed to intimidate people - in this case women - into silence and it must not be allowed to happen with impunity."

Wes Streeting once against demonstrating that he knows fuck all when he accuses @bashback.bsky.social of trying to 'intimidate women into silence'. Contrary to his drivel, BASH BACK are one of the few groups openly fighting real systems of violence against trans people AND cis women in the UK!

Plenty of other trans people are out here suffering and you could lift those voices, but instead of giving a shit about other people...
Out here have posts pinned with slurs while crying over somebody calling us sir or dude or the t-slur.

If I was hot and had roles in nerd fandom I think I'd use whatever platform I had and pull up other voices more marginalized than me. Cause if you're riding high making plays, playing in geek dream roles, and have over 1mil subs and people giving you an income on Patreon; you'll be fine for a while.

The Trump Adminโ€™s Executive Order to block trans & nonbinary people from getting passports is cruel + extreme โ€“ thatโ€™s why multiple judges have blocked it from going into effect. SCOTUS must reject Trumpโ€™s appeal & protect key access to identity documents. buff.ly/lP2UqOA
