Title: Gender Census 2024. Text: If you can't easily put yourself into just one of these two boxes, you are invited to take part. Two boxes, one green malachite with a Venus symbol on it, one pink rhodochrosite with a Mars symbol on it.

The 11th annual international Gender Census 2024 is now open until at least 13th June 2024!

survey.gendercensus.com

We must, however, also enforce rules that are designed to support safety and our missions. Those in violation of our policies are making choices. We are continuing to implement student conduct procedures, which may result in the inability of some of our students to graduate or continue their education at Penn in subsequent years. The roles, responsibilities, and activities of Penn faculty and staff members in the encampment are also under review.

You know what, point to all the superhero writers who have their villains lay out the plan in detail out loud. You were right. They do indeed do that. It turns out the thing you got wrong is the part where the good guys stop them. You didn't write unrealistic villains, you wrote unrealistic heroes.

at this point I’m extremely irritated I haven’t been invited to a powerpoint party

Of all the Tesla fan arguments that I don't understand, the " it was unscathed in a crash only the occupant was hurt" one is by far the most batshit, why the fuck would I want a car that doesn't sacrifice its body to save mine are you aware of how a car person relationship actually works
