This is also a big one for me. The strawman argument is always "but what about the mom and pop landlords?" Well, most of them are sitting on goldmines that someone else paid for. They can always sell their multi-hundred-thousand dollar assets, walk away with their profits, and get a job!!

Ironically if staff and journalists and academics were just a little more polite and patient, they'd find out a lot of us weird ass queer transes are actually pretty good at basically all of this stuff.

You've got the brains
I've got the woims

As a fully trained and credentialed postmodernist from a rare U.S. continental school, I can tell you that The Immortal Science of Dialectical Materialism still reigns supreme. It's just that weaponized ignorance and idealism is unfortunately material.

I would only give raunchy direction for someone finding their fur.

Remember when Sen. Sheehy accidentally shot himself in a national park and pretended he got the wound in a firefight in Afghanistan?

I gotta hand it to congress they aren’t even pretending to remotely be a democratic body anymore. Thank you for revealing the dictatorship of the bourgeoisie to the people

That frigate was at the international fleet review in India BTW, along with US forces. This amounts to sinking a ship under a flag of truce so it's even worse than it seems

Very excited for my second paper in the American Journal of Orthopsychiatry to be published.

In this paper @floralashes.bsky.social and I dig into the dominant narratives that underlie restrictions on the use of GnRHAs in TGDI youth.

Got referred as “woman identifying” four times by four separate people today.

Can’t stress enough how clear a transmisogynistic dig this is.

Unfortunately I'm being proven right

If anyone has any emergency fund or mutual aid links or efforts for anyone trying to survive or leave Florida because of this, please let me know so I can boost it.

they've been treating us trans women for decades. Which is darkly humorous.

They will kill you, say it is your fault, and then implicitly threaten your siblings with the same treatment if you don't nod along.

"Unhinged" is classic grievance dismissal tactic. He is looking for other veterans in the audience to turn to people around them and say "I agree, he was unhinged and unreasonable, unlike me; I'm the reasonable vet."

It is both a wedge and a tool to solidify support. They're treating him like

Sorry not sorry

FDA to offer bonus payments to staffers who complete speedy drug reviews The head of the Food and Drug Administration plans to start offering bonus payments to agency drug reviewers who complete their work ahead of the schedule.

The very same people whose platforms were built on the assertion that vaccines with decades of research behind them are "too experimental" now want to create a "one-month drug assessment" pathway and offer bonuses to employees for faster approval.

know I’m AI-posting a lot today, but holy shit read the linked lawsuit for this. this is probably the worst of these so far, by far (contingent on the brief being accurate, which isn’t guaranteed). the other ones were people with existing ideation not being stopped, this actively pushed him.

The thing about telling chatbot users that using chatbots deteriorates their epistemic connexion to reality, is that it fails to take into consideration that using chatbots deteriorates one's epistemic connexion to reality, such that being told it has deteriorated will not seem like a big deal

Looking to speak with trans Kansans about how SB 244 (the law affecting driver's licenses, birth certificates, bathrooms and more) is affecting your life so far and plans for the future.

The gods came down to the Italian peninsula and they were asked for blessings, and the gods did bless the peninsula with trans girls from Anatolia and luganega sausage.

We had an absolutely delicious dirty rice made with luganega, and tomato and onion and a spice blend with capers, and the entire apartment smells like cooked luganega sausage and I am dying for more.

The imperial courts in the Ming and Qing dynasties had a bunch of records of trans folks, with the common theme of them being incredibly scandalized and the witnesses they interview being like "so what's the problem" about it, hinting that gender variance was more widely spread/common.

There's a (admittedly very terrible/sad) story from the Chinese imperial courts of the arrest and torture of a trans woman that claimed she was possessed by a feminine fox spirit and could heal the sick (through what sounds like pretty basic home remedies). The girls back then knew.
