I think one of the most damaging ideologies towards children is the conviction that having children isn’t a calling but a moral obligation.

not a "hear me out" but a "we overlooked it at the time but this character has vastly underrated sex appeal so let's revisit that"

You said I had to explain - you didn’t say they had to understand.

One really weird thing transphobic cis women will say is something to the effect of “I was a tomboy, thank god it was before the transgender craze. They would made me transition.” Like, probably not, girl. As you are a cis woman who has never communicated any form of gender dysphoria. It makes it really obvious that they think being transgender is just conforming to different gender roles. There is an ocean between a little girl who likes traditionally masculine fashion and has traditionally masculine interests and a child that is transgender. They are not a slippery slope. They don’t push you down the slide of transgenderism if you cut your hair short when you’re 12.

There are so many trans men who were never tomboys, who were the picture of the ‘perfect little girl’ and genuinely enjoyed traditionally feminine hobbies and expressing themselves in ways associated with femininity. It confuses and angers cis people when they come out as trans because they only see gender as a role to perform and not an identity. If you’re truly a woman, you’re generally not susceptible to randomly turning into a man. If you’re truly a man, you’re generally not susceptible to randomly turning into a woman.

I have some news for members of the united states armed forces who feel like they are pawns in a political game and their assignments being unnecessary.

-deep breath-

A 'no questions asked' food pantry means no questions asked.

When we're stocking our pantry, we are not looking at a person's clothes or their accessories or what kind of car they drove there in. We are HAPPY to see it BEING USED AT ALL.

I don't know anyone's situation. Maybe they got that designer bag at a thrift shop. Maybe its a knockoff. Maybe it was a gift. Maybe they got it when they had money and now they don't have money. Maybe they're getting stuff for a friend.

Maybe they have plenty of money, don't need to be taking stuff from the pantry, but they are anyway because we said-

NO QUESTIONS ASKED.

Do you know what happens when someone takes from our pantry when they don't need it? We're down one item. But maybe they tell someone that the pantry is there. Or maybe they come back to it when they need it. Or maybe they throw a dollar in the donation box. Or maybe they put an item on the shelf. Or maybe they come to our food drive.

WE DONT CARE.

We don't care who used it.

We care that it was used.

Im not a cop. Don't make me do cop stuff, I wont do it.

Honestly, y'all, I'm begging you. Take the time to think and learn for yourself. Even if it's just something casual like knitting or cooking. Exercise your brain. It's important.

Murderbot and Gurathin attempting to weaponize each other’s asexual autism and ending up weaponizing that against themselves in the process because they’re The Same is genuinely my favorite part of the show so far

Gurathin: Haha! I will force you to make eye contact, which will cause you stress due to your aversion!

Murderbot: Right. Did it occur to you that you’re also eye contact averse, so this is going to distress you almost as much as me?

Gurathin: …no I did not consider that. Fuck. Fuck

Murderbot: Well while you’re busy regretting that - haHA! I will force you to watch your coworkers getting it on, which will distress you due to your sex-repulsion and discomfort with breaking certain boundaries!

Gurathin: Mm. Did it occur to you that you’re also sex-repulsed, and that in order to broadcast that to me, you have to be watching it yourself, so this is going to distress you almost as much as me?

Murderbot: Fuck.

I Love Them

all the trans bathroom bans have this awful tendency to push the overton window of even trans advocacy by trans people to the right

so many trans people now are focused on pleading to let trans women use women's restrooms and to let trans men use men's restrooms that I feel like the demand that was much more prominent even 5 years ago to construct non-segregated accessible bathrooms for everyone is almost nonexistent
