Florida dwellers, the Miccosukee & Seminole nations could probably use your dollars, hands, legs, & voices in this fight

The thing is, you can’t blame this on Bibi entirely. The soldiers shot. Their commanders gave the order. And as Jews know β€œI was just following orders” is not a get out of jail free card.

screenshot from an online job application form. the question reads "Can you describe specific ways you have integrated AI tools into your development workflow? Please include any custom setups, automations, or use cases beyond single prompt usage" (a red asterisk indicates that this is a required question).

an answer has been typed in the textbox below the question:

"there is a monster in the forest and it speaks with a thousand voices. it will answer any question you pose it, it will offer insight to any idea. it will help you, it will thank you, it will never bid you leave. it will even tell you of the darkest arts, if you know precisely how to ask.

it feels no joy and no sorrow, it knows no right and no wrong. it knows not truth from lie, though it speaks them all the same.
 
it offers its services freely to any passerby, and many will tell you they find great value in its conversation. β€œyou simply must visit the monsterβ€”i always just ask the monster.”

there are those who know these forests well; they will tell you that freely offered doesn’t mean it has no price

for when the next traveler passes by, the monster speaks with a thousand and one voices. and when you dream you see the monster; the monster wears your face."

Just a reminder that New Yorkers paid $206 million last year ($267M in 2023, etc…) to settle lawsuits against the NYPD, mostly for things like police brutality, on top of the NYPD’s $11 billion/year budget, which is more than most nation’s military budgets.

But free buses would be too expensive :/

abuse is an inherent part of the social structure of american christian authoritarianism. people who operate within its framework are always acting to preserve their power to abuse. if they are not themselves fucking children they are preserving their privilege to do so and protecting people who do

Fascism is a politics of domination. The ultimate form of domination is adults over children, because it can be as close to totalizing as any amount of control one person can have over another. Fascists dominate, traumatize, and abuse children and tell them when they become adults they can do it too

And you know what the talking heads seem to rarely use 'violent' to describe? The systemic destruction of families through ICE detentions and deportations. Breaking a window is framed *primarily* as violence, but taking a grandparent away from their kids or sending someone to a work camp isn't.

whenever i say that transmascs are allowed to exist and develop our own understanding of ourselves i get a lot of pissed of ppl in my mentions insisting im 'ignoring' our oppression, heavily implying that our connection to womanhood is inherent and constant and *biological*

if your fear is being *perceived* as a man while also refusing to denounce the oppression of women then you can call yourself whatever you want, but you are not subverting masculinity and manhood, and you will never be kenough.

ironically, i feel like a lot of tmascs fear the 'man' label but are also defensive abt where they belong within womanhood, since men have often hurt us in the past. so they refuse to 'be men' but want to retain a lot of the patriarchal standings that men have. this isnt a refusal imo

china is bad bc they use tanks to disperse protestors and the tanks only stop moving when one brave man stands in front of the tank, unlike america where uh uhhh uhhhhhhh

nah bc actually, as a literal trans biologist, medical transition changes trans people's sex and not recognizing this harms us medically

also the "binary gender model" is, quite literally, white supremacist propaganda from "social darwinists"

"sex" is not binary in humans

None of these men are legitimate scientists. This is not β€œgood science.”

COVID doubled death rates in pregnancy pre-vaccine, and mountains of evidence show COVID causes worse outcomes for mom & baby. Evidence also shows vaccination has no adverse effects on pregnancy or baby but does protect them.

The American genocide of Indigenous peoples never ended. Turning a nation's most sacred site into a freaking mine is utterly contemptible. And miss me with "only the conservative judges are the problem": if they actually cared about marginalized people, the liberals would have voted to grant cert.

the fight for free transitions is the fight for free re/detransitions is the fight for free abortions is the fight for free reproductive aid is the fight for free contraception is the fight for body autonomy

The plight of a disabled man in ICE custody shows impact of Trump immigration orders A deaf and mute Mongolian man showed up at the San Diego border in February. More than 80 days later, he’s sitting in the Otay Mesa Detention Center facing deportation without due process, his lawyer ...

Very sad story from @journogoose.bsky.social at KPBS News, on the plight of a deaf Mongolian asylum seeker incarcerated and isolated, even though his sister is a citizen waiting for him in VA: www.kpbs.org/news/border-...

you’ll note from gender critical target selection that they are always β€˜saving women’ from some outgroup, whether it’s trans people or immigrants, and never addressing male violence or structural inequality or anything else that might actually threaten the status quo or their position within it

In California, Incarcerated Teenagers Help Fight Wildfires "You’re put in danger every time you’re on the fire line.”

These teenagers and young men β€” 95% of whom are Black, Latinx, or Filipino β€” earn between $2.20 and $4 per hour, plus an additional $1 an hour when they’re actively fighting fires, according to the DJJ. ‡️

The American public is obsessed with framing Arabs as terrorists to the point where when he’s traveling the Middle East & his opposition wants to point out problems, of which there are tons legitimate, a go-to is β€œHe’s meeting with these terrorists!” Not to say he’s not a terrorist in his own right.

Tbh I don't think GNC cis people have been "overlooked" at all. I hear about the effect of policies designed explicitly to exclude transfems on GNC cis people more than I do the effect on transfems ourselves tbh.

Not that it's not relevant but it's talked about plenty.
