"wait, but what do I say to describe people who cannot get pregnant?" a guide.

Men cannot get pregnant: INCORRECT. Transgender men are men and many are capable of getting pregnant. Also, excludes the plenty of people who are not men who cannot get pregnant.

Cis men cannot get pregnant: INCORRECT. Intersex men who are technically cis, but have uteruses and ovaries, may be capable of pregnancy, even if it's unlikely. Also, excludes the plenty of people who are not men who cannot get pregnant.

Cis perisex men cannot get pregnant: Correct, but excludes the plenty of people who are not men who cannot get pregnant.

People without uteruses cannot get pregnant: Correct, but excludes infertile and menopausal people with uteruses who also cannot get pregnant.

People who cannot get pregnant: CORRECT. Excludes no one.

To use inclusionary language, you don't need to rip through the reeds in search of wider terminology when you could quite literally say things exactly as they are. Inclusive language isn't "overcomplicated" at all. It's straightforward.

hello white transgender person. in front of you is a computer displaying a post by a trans person of color discussing racism within the trans community. you may either respond to the post or close the window and move on. if you choose to respond to the post, just know that if you say anything to the effect of "it's not that big a deal", the bomb i have placed under your chair will explode. good luck.

i think one of the most important things you learn about making connections with others is that a significant portion of the time people just do not know theyre doing what theyre doing

TYR - Tyrosinase

Part 2 - mammals

The enzyme encoded by this gene regulates several steps in the conversion of tyrosine to melanin. Mutations in this gene result in oculocutaneous albinism (OCA1).

Mouse

intense chinchilla

chinchilla (two different mutations)

exteme dilution

extreme dilution mottled

ruby-eyed dilute

platinum

himalayan

acromelanic

albino mottling

albino (several different mutations)

Inheritance: all recessive to the wild type, intermediate on various degree between each other.

Due to the great number of alleles and the rarity of some of them, I only illustrate the four most common (those with a bold lettering).

first row: sepia (cch/cch), mock chocolate (cch/ce) - this one is a fox (tan instead of solid like the rest here, note the white belly), burmese (cch/ch), stone (cch/c), second row: beige (ce/ce), colorpoint beige (ce/ch), bone (ce/c), third row: siamese point (ch/ch), himalayan (ch/c), fourth row: albino (c/c). image sources

[trans mutual aid request]

hey there! I don't use this site much anymore but I thought I would spread this around as things are pretty dire for me financially rn !

spent a few months unemployed, drained my savings, and now the rent money I'm expecting thru unemployment isn't coming in bc I got a job (naturally this doesn't take into account the fact that im making sub minimum wage with not a lot of hours, and it'll be weeks till my first paycheck)

hoping to raise at least $350 to make rent this month and stay housed. Anything else goes to feeding myself & my son brady (pictured below)

anything helps, reposts included! so naturally don't feel obligated if donating puts you in a tight spot (we're all struggling rn & there are a million better causes to contribute to!)

[saturnmortis]

something vindictive but ultimately harmless I do at work is that if you’re at my register and you’re rude to me and you pay with cash I am finding the most disgusting desolate fucked up unspeakable coin I can to give to you. oh you were mean to me? you’re getting the yucky nickel bitch

[saturnmortis]

GIRL you are KILLING IT! GIRL i don’t think it’s MOVING ANYMORE. GIRL you can STOP BITING
