if Tony gilroy is going to turn cassian and mon into his oc’s I will do the same with my oc carro rylanz, an incredibly tightly wound space German-French city councilor, seeming imperial collaborator and wealthy businessman who, with his 20 years experience with public housing projects and healthcare, knows and has access to others with the expertise of exactly how much in the way of bunk beds and socks and dish soap a project like Yavin would need to get off the ground from being a scattered group of guerillas to a systematized operation with the potential to house mass numbers of soldiers and refugees - and who, as a seeming collaborator who hob nobs and kisses the ass of imperial elites and local collaborators, has access to trade licitly on the open market in order to get ahold of essential materials at lower official and civilian prices. He’s the middle man and unseen father of the rebellion that an organization like yavin would have always needed if it was going to convert the funds from (shudder shudder) Leida’s wedding and other sources into any kind of systematic operation that can actually house people and prevent the problems from hunger and disease and exposure that have historically been the reason soldiers die! He salutes the imperial flag and hob mobs with stormtroopers and speaks publicly about how great the PORD is and he and a wider group of Ghorman front people - doctors and medics and engineers and healthcare professionals - are the ones who did the intermediary trading in a massive civilian city to supply yavin base and people like them must always have been there

saw Hozier at Reading festival yesterday and he did about a five min speech focused mostly on Palestine, called out the fact that the UK government’s legislation on Palestine Action is insane….. and I just looked at BBC iPlayer and they broadcast every major set except his. which was literally the one that closed the night. like idk the censorship of pro Palestine sentiments in this country is insane

man the public defender discourse pisses me off so bad. yeah. yeah I do think that every single person deserves representation. yeah that includes people who *have* committed rape and murder and abuse. when I say every single person I mean every single person. if your idea of justice excludes one person it excludes everyone. next question

Isn't it fucking insane that so many people think that IQs are real. Like people genuinely believe you are born with one set level of intelligence that can be measured on a scale from 1 to ~200. As if intelligence wasn't extremely nuanced and completely subjective. And the fact that the majority of scientists that have advocated for IQ tests in the past have been eugenicists doesn't seem to concern anyone either

Trans rights and intersex rights are always going to go hand in hand. No one should be prevented from accessing gender affirming medical care and no one should be forced to undergo unwanted medical interventions to make them conform to society's binary sex ideal. It's about choice and bodily autonomy.

If your arguments for the rights of one of these groups ignore the other, idealize the experiences of the other, or tokenize the other without actually advocating for its rights (example: "cis kids have easy access to the same treatments trans kids desperately need!" ignoring that many of those cis kids are intersex and not necessarily undergoing those treatments willingly), you're both missing the point and your proposed policies will have massive holes in them so that they may not actually fully support either group, or may even make these worse for one or both of them.

Abortion/contraception access is always going to go hand in hand with access to fertility treatment and eliminating nonconsensual sterilization. No one should be forced to have a child they don't want or prevented from having children they do want. It's about choice and bodily autonomy.

If your arguments for one of these issues ignore the other, idealize the other, or tokenize the other without actually advocating for that issue (example: "if the men in the government aren't going to let women have access to abortion and contraception, they should all have vasectomies!" advocating for unwanted sterilization), you're both missing the point and your proposed policies will have massive holes in them so that they may not actually fully address either issue, or may even make one or both of them worse.

Et cetera et cetera. Every time an issue is about bodily autonomy it may have two sides: restricted access to desired treatments, and forced infliction of unwanted treatment. And these will have to be addressed together to be addressed at all.
