I think if homosexuality and transgender identities make you uncomfortable or viscerally angry, you have too much time on your hands or too little love from your parents (barring that your parents aren't the ones who taught you how to hate). Either or. If you have the time to discourage and admonish identities you also have the time to look inward, something you refuse to do because two people kissing or children taking hormone blockers isn't what scares you. It's the prospect that maybe you're close-minded, and maybe your ancient beliefs make you ancient too. These beliefs have only been kept for so long because you surround yourself with people who perpetuate the same rhetoric as you, and that's not keeping your peace, that's hiding from it. If you can't find peace in things you disagree with, you are inevitably the problem.

A new study has revealed for the first time the vital role carbon dioxide (CO2) plays in determining the lifespan of airborne viruses—namely SARS-CoV-2, the virus that causes COVID-19. It clearly showed keeping CO2 levels in check helps to reduce virus survival, and therefore the risk of infection. The research, led by the University of Bristol and published today in Nature Communications, shows how CO2 is a major factor in prolonging the life of SARS-CoV-2 variants present in tiny droplets circulating in the atmosphere. Lead author Dr. Allen Haddrell, Senior Research Associate in Aerosol Science at the University's School of Chemistry, said, "We knew SARS-CoV-2, like other viruses, spreads through the air we breathe. But this study represents a huge breakthrough in our understanding of exactly how and why that happens, and crucially, what can be done to stop it.

it's a shame that humans are so willing to die without fighting for what they believe in. this man is admirable in so many levels, i hope to have a will as strong as he does.

HETEROSEXUAL CIS-PEOPLE LOOK HERE

Snaps my fingers at you as you scroll past this post

Look at me. Listen.

I'm not the best at serious posts, but that article up there reminded me of how important it is that people like you stand up for us. So hold on while I try to get this out of my mushy end-of-work-day brain.

We could fight this fight ourselves for decades trying to reach the equal laws, gender affirming trans healthcare that doesn't have a 2-5+ soul-eating years of waiting time, medical care with equal knowledge of lgbtqia+ bodies, and, what is often forgotten, inclusion in the little everyday areas of life like our way of speaking or things being set up or designed with the existence of queer people in mind.

But you joining in could get us there so much faster.

The power you have as a hetero cis person is that you set the standard for what is seen as the average way of treating us among other hetero cis people. You have been given the power of deciding what's "normal" and I'm begging you to use it.

Richard Green is a great example of to what extent your actions can help our situation, and smaller ways of support still add up to a great impact on society, and could make the days of the queer people you interact with.

Educate yourself before you speak up, but don't be silent.

im aware that the way the english language flourishes is through communication and a various assortment of linguistic processes. BUT it's so unnecessary to label everything as some sort of major psychological phenomenon (coming from a studying psychologist).

can we normalise saying non-medical/psychological terminology when describing very mundane things, normalise being a regular person without overly-intellectualising every minute detail

though i am just another person with an opinion and in the face of the world i hold very little meaning in swaying the general public. i just like complaining.

some examples that are being used at an almost comical level:

limerance, splitting, dissociating, anxiety, OCD, (any attachment theory lingo).

AND ON TOP OF THAT THE WHOLE "do you have siren eyes, or doe eyes" I HAVE EYES, I AM A HUMAN WITH EYES. I AM A PERSON WHEN WAS IT SUCH A BAD THING TO ADMIT THAT YOU'RE A HUMAN AND YOU'RE BORING.

i wish to be a water bear.

imagine if humans had a hold of this concept, we'd find a way to somehow exclude a certain subset of merfolk

tired: mermaids are all women

wired: much like elves, merfolk are mistaken by sailors for being all women because they have long hair and are very pretty
