Being trans forces you to self-actualise in a way many people just don't. Once you've interrogated something so fundamental in yourself as your sex and gender, you start seeing yourself and your relationship to the world differently, and embracing yourself becomes much easier
They want us ALL gone. Even if every single person abided by the contradictory and vague rules you think would save you, they'd just change what the rules meant in order to get you.
For example, if they successfully got rid of all non-whites, people with brown eyes would be up next.
They DO NOT CARE. They don't give a shit about your carefully considered nuance. They don't care about your carve-outs for the kinks you deem acceptable. The "optics" aren't decided by actual offenders making everyone look bad. Its based on who they need to get rid of that week.
Have I mentioned that for trans people whose bodies no longer make endogenous sex hormones, this is a death sentence preceded by weakened bones, heart disease and whole slew of unregulated body functions including temperature, sleep, digestion and mood (dis)regulation?
with how constantly we're subjected to the topic, i wish more people would say child abuser instead of pedophile, to emphasize the material act of hurting a kid rather than abstractions about them as a person. i know it's a small difference and usually know it's implied but the imprecision irks me.

What the fuck, man. I'm glad I found some Nashville Hot sauce at the supermarket to make my own spicy mozzarella sticks because I'm never spending money at Chili's again.

I’m gonna be That Guy for a minute.
FUCK. MARX.
Marx won’t help you here unless you have someone to show you how Marx’s analysis of the effects of machines (which is a huge fucking class of objects) on labor applies to our contemporary situation.
Sorry to keep ranting about this, but if I can reach even a single cis person who's never thought about this, it's worth it.
Let's say I got it tested and it turns out I have XX chromosomes. Do you think a rightwinger will then go "Oh okay, you get to live as a woman and continue taking estrogen"?
She’s so pissed that she didn’t get to bomb Iran
ALSO PARDON THE FUCK FUCK OUTTA ME, but I don't think the whole "porn addiction" and "gooner" discourse appearing at the same time as payment processors applying the squeeze is a fuckin COINCIDENCE.
I am Andrew Ryan, and I am here to ask you a question. Is a poster not entitled to the sweat of his palms?
Look at those car lanes barely being used. We should take them out to make more space for bikes =)
Traffic ❤️
People also forget that the first Rambo was about a homeless soldier with ptsd harrassed by the corrupt cops
Nice to see a judge basically laugh at the claim that Kalshi and other "prediction" markets are not "betting."
Gotta kill these sites as soon as possible.

Drone strikes in Haiti.
Drone strikes. In Haiti.
By private contractors.
They’re killing Haitians for private profit & the world barely pays attention.
The story of Haiti is the story America likes to tell about itself. Except there, it’s true. And the west has never stopped punishing Haiti for it
Idk maybe this is why I find the term Oligarch or Oligarchy slightly weird
Those are Capitalists, my friend, and the problem is capitalism. Democratic or openly corrupt unitary republics. Class is the issue at hand, name it, don't obfuscate or give an out
I finally lost my shit about so-called AIs, LLMs, enshittification & everything fucking evil that @officialgrammarly.bsky.social is doing. I'm fucking furious, and not just about what 1 company has done. An open letter to Grammarly & the rest of the LLM hype machine www.moryan.com/an-open-lett...
All humans are comprised of collections of sex characteristics that TEND to group together in 2 different ways that are erroneously referred to by the ignorant as just "sex"
"Appreciate their sex," in addition to being willfully condescending and cruel, is a nonsense statement
Not that it matters
pretty impressed with the macbook neo so far!
This has been pointed out many times (including by Evan!), but it bears repeating that this is the same playbook used to sow suspicion on vaccinations and the existence of climate change.
As I have said repeatedly, the only move the anti-trans side has is pretending that they've found a scandal, then describe the way medicine (or medical research) works in every other field but trans care in breathless, scandalized tones.
This is just what I needed to see today.
E-bikes take cars off the road and that's really important. They also give people freedom, independence, and access to the world without a car.
But they're also fun as hell. And bikes *should* be fun!
conservative evangelicalism is the direct theological offspring of slaveholder christianity and it contains all of its pathologies, part infinity
Yeah but that could've been the gospels.
I don't want to blow up a friend's spot, but I just utterly reject the historical consensus that we can KNOW Jesus of Nazareth was a real, existing person
If you have faith in that, great
But the Testimonium Flavianum is DUBIOUS at best, and beyond that, it's all Christian sources
Sorry!
that's a child's understanding of what is supposed to happen though. the value of billionaires isn't in their liquid holdings at all.
only a fool thinks that bezos' power is wrapped up in his walking around money, it's CAPITAL, which is cloud services, infrastructure, land and organizations.
