happy juneteenth but dont forget that prisoners are legally allowed to be subject to slave labor and also black people are disproportionately arrested and subjected to that legality. happy juneteenth but slavery still lives in america. america is still dependant on slave labor.

Hey just a quick check in- now that musk is like severely imploding on trump and their severed ties

Yall won't forget this part right?

Yall won't forget he's still a massive scumbag right? That he's still a nazi right? That won't get lost in translation right???

(I don't THINK it'll get forgotten but I really want to remind people that just because Musk is now bashing trump for all the shit we've known about him for awhile that we don't forget he was complicit. If anything his bashing and airing out trumps laundry makes it worse, because he KNEW all that and still worked with him.)

I feel like a grouchy old republican who can’t understand they/them pronouns when my cool, hip coworkers use the term “guys,” plural, to address a singular person

the religious trauma urge to confess everything and anything that comes to mind and makes you guilty so you can be forgiven by the masses

does anyone have that quote that goes something like 'white germans under the nazis lived just fine as long as they were loyal to the state, gave their children to the army, and paid their taxes, and in this sense many americans would be comfortable living under fascism' trying to find who said it but google is giving me jack shit

Two years after being tasked with commissioning a review of medical evidence surrounding gender-affirming care for trans youth, Utah’s own state health department has concluded that trans healthcare bans “cannot be justified.” The Republicans who commissioned the study aren’t too happy about it.

Back in 2023, Utah Governor Spencer Cox signed a bill that placed an indefinite “moratorium” on doctors prescribing gender-affirming care like hormone therapy and puberty blockers to trans youth. That bill ordered the Utah Department of Health and Human Services to compile their report in order to produce recommendations for the state government on whether or not to lift the moratorium.

This week, the department delivered their long-awaited, over 1,000-page report — which is dated August 6, 2024 — to Utah lawmakers. The report’s authors found that “the consensus of the evidence supports that the treatments are effective in terms of mental health, psychosocial outcomes, and the induction of body changes consistent with the affirmed gender in pediatric GD [gender dysphoria] patients.”

The authors added that “the evidence also supports that the treatments are safe in terms of changes to bone density, cardiovascular risk factors, metabolic changes, and cancer.” Trans youth who had received gender-affirming care were within the bounds of normal, non-pathological ranges for these conditions.

y’all this is huge. please don’t “water is wet” all over it! I understand that we all already know this… The point is that the world doesn’t know or care or believe and so these studies really fucking matter!

There’s this whole discourse going on between TBM and Exmo creators on TikTok about whether active believing members should be listened to as accurate sources of information on the church.

And my feeling is… kinda. Sure, ask members about their beliefs and experiences. Many good people are believing members and they won’t intentionally lie to you.

But also. LISTEN to us Exmos when we say—THE CHURCH HIDES ITS HISTORY FROM ITS MEMBERS. They’re told to only look at “faith affirming” sources of information… information the church chooses to either publish or approve. That’s where active Mormons are learning about church history—from the church, which has a host of reasons to keep the members happy and believing (not the least of which is 10% of their paycheck).

Listen to Exmos. We will tell you how we were lied to and misled. Most active members are never taught the actual history of what happened in the early church, just the sanitized acceptable version.

Listen to members, sure. But believe us Exmos when we say THEY DO NOT KNOW THEIR HISTORY.
