I have heard this from white Australian kids without a single drop of ancestry from Aboriginal, Pacific Islander, Chinese or any other non-European ethnicity. Not even a bit of Greek, Sicilian, Maltese or Hispanic that would make you go "maybe". They do this while standing on Yuggera land that their ancestors colonised off my mother's people without a trace of irony or self-reflection. The hypocrisy of those twerps is infuriating.

“I hate Israel/Zionists because they’re white colonizers!”

No, that’s not why, because you have never in your life directed this much hatred toward actual white colonizers. You have never protested or boycotted or ostracized or harassed any actual white colonizers the way you do Jews.

I only just found these drawings. And to paraphrase one of the other commenters, "We like plague doctors on this site."

Plague Doctor masks based off of different birds

I’ve been saying this for years 😭

I can spell, do maths & cook. The first two are obvious. I have a university degree. Spelling is bare minimum when you need to be able to write essays, journal article style assignments, lab reports & exam questions. My degree had a compulsory statistics course & math was required for other subjects. Doing math was required. And yes I can cook. That's a basic requirement of surviving as an adult.

Driving is tricky. I can technically drive from Point A to Point B but end up so drained from the drive (due to the fact that I can't focus on just the road) that I can't so anything afterwards, so I usually don't drive. Let's mark this as a No.

I have trouble recognising jokes, let alone telling them. We will put this as one I can't do.

Appearance wise, I'm plain. Neither hot or ugly, just unremarkable. If I hadn't transitioned, I would be even more unremarkable as I'm at average male height for my country. As it stands, I'm taller than the average woman, but not to the point of it being that noteworthy, as I still know ciswomen who are taller than me. But unremarkable works for me. Too ugly, & transphobes are more likely to clock you. Too attractive & creeps are more likely to stalk or even sexually assault you.

let’s settle this shit but do NOT reblog if you’re gonna be modest about it like a little BITCH. anyway privilege check tell me which ones apply to you: hot, funny, can dance, can do math, can spell, can drive, can cook

In my lifetime, I have drunk 1 cup of decaf coffee. I have yet to try the caffeinated version & probably never will.

Out of curiosity and also guilt over my own coffee intake. I wanna ask:

Now I'm not talking about when you're studying and so you drink 3x the usual amount or something like that. This isn't me asking what your record is. I'm talking about the most basic, average day, how many coffees you drink?

So this happened recently. It would probably be bigger news worldwide if the war Hamas started didn't drag on into its 6th month. Meanwhile, in Australia, the worsening domestic violence rate, the recent series of knife stabbings & the bankruptcy of Bonza Airlines have taken many of our eyes off the Pacific.

Kimba the White Lion was on reruns in Australia for decades after its initial release. Even though I was born in the early 1990s, I watched Kimba before I ever saw Pokemon or Digimon (I preferred Digimon to Pokemon). So Kimba is my first anime.

I think the more important question is which anime was the one to lock me into watching anime as an adult rather than dropping it in my early teens. The answer to that was that in Grade 8, I saw Gundam Seed, Full Metal Alchemist (the first one, this was before Brotherhood was made), Ghost in the Shell: SAC & Trinity Blood. I got hooked. Watched amongst other shows, Death Note, Full Metal Panic Fumoffu, InuYasha, Code Geass & Kashimashi (which (a) in retrospect, really should have cracked my egg before it actually cracked & (b) was a show I didn't even admit to watching around my other otaku/weeb friends).

If I never saw Gundam Seed, the first FMA, Trinity Blood & SAC, I wouldn't have grown up to be a 30-something weeb. That I watched Kimba the White Lion, Pokemon, Digimon, Hamtaro & YuGiOh (amongst others) as a kid wouldn't have mattered much if I didn't stumble onto Gundam Seed/FMA/Trinity Blood/SAC just as I was aging out of the primary school kid stuff. I watched Cousin Skeeter (a Nickelodeon sitcom) as a kid, but adult me has no interest in puppet shows.

does the far left even know that they have effectively alienated massive numbers of regular folks who’ve seen protesters chanting “burn tel aviv to the ground” and “globalize the intifada” or watched jewish people all over the world be subjected to harassment from antizionists

personally, speaking as a long-time leftist, i have lost all trust in leftists as a whole

This was created by an Israeli artist & activist whose family fled persecution in Tunisia & Iraq. Please ditch the "Israelis are all white colonizers, and Israel is Bad for everyone who isn't religious and white" nonsense.

In comparison the regret rates for transition surgery is tiny, only 1%. Which makes sense, it's really hard to jump through the hurdles to get surgery. Speaking as part of the 99% who are happy with transition. If people want to ban us for a regret rate of 1% (lower than almost any other surgery, including the life-saving ones), than logically straight marriage is 42 times worse.

For anyone who didn't get it, of course no one wants to ban straight marriage (well, almost no one, I've read some works by ciswomen proposing that). We are just pointing out that in the attempt by the anti-trans movement to attack us anyway they can, they shot themselves in the foot on this.

"they are just protesting genocide and war" THEY STABBED A JEWISH STUDENT. THEY ARE LITERALLY HARASSING THEM NONE STOP. THEY ARE TELLING JEWISH STUDENTS THAT THEY SHOULD BE DEAD. Jewish students all over America have been shown once and once again that people want them dead because they are jews. I don't fucking want this to get violent. I don't want this to escalate. Bring in swat or anything truly won't make it safer. but to say that they were "only protests" is disgusting. Just fucking say you hate jews.

Double standards, and Hypocrisy.

"Two million people have been killed in the Sudan Civil War, I haven't seen a protest at NYU for that. Assad killed 500,000 Arabs I didn't see colleges burn down. Saddam Hussein killed over a million Muslims in wars, I didn't see a protest there, yet your school is shut down right now because Israel is responding to the worst attack against Jews since the Holocaust"

Good to know & thanks in advance for the additional video when you post it.
