Maybe you should research what radfems actually advocate for, instead of listening to the hive mind of trans-radicals.

imagine the cognitive dissonance of being a terf, strutting around talking about how youre the only real feminists and youre suuuch a warrior for womens rights, meanwhile everyone else who agrees with you on your biggest issue are raging fascists who think cis women should go back to being slave-pets for men

You do realize that most people have the power to ignore societal pressure to conform, right?

You can be a masculine female or a feminine male without pumping yourself full of toxic chemicals and surgically removing your genitals.

imagine if they gendered you from birth and then assigned you a list of interests and personality traits even if that felt horrifically untrue for you and you hated when people did that for as long as you could remember but every time you complained about it people got confused

Writing fanfiction about a random author, that you don't know personally, is wild to be.

Insane behavior. Truly.

ok im going to #seriouspost for a second here. I don't think Harry Potter is a manifesto. I think it was a flawed passion project that millennials latched onto because of the fantasy of sticking it to their mean teachers and arbitrarily categorizing themselves (hogwarts houses; it's the thinking millennial's astrology). I think the fact that the series got popular when and how it did was very much a product of its time.

I don't think Harry Potter is the biggest symbol of JKR's bigotry. I think the most flagrant sign of that was how she responded to critics. I watched her become radicalized in real time. I watched how she doubled down on her racism when she was called out for the ways she promoted her tragically mid fantastic beasts movies. I watched her chase marginalized teenagers with a double digit follower count off of twitter for daring to criticize her thought process, and no one with any kind of power standing against her because she was the one who was paying them. This isn't to say Harry Potter is without flaws. This is to say she really didn't give a shit about that. Getting rich and powerful is a hell of a drug, and she had enough sycophants that she had no reason to care about what her critics were saying.

She was convinced that she was a martyr; a voice for the unheard; a leader for the ages, so of course her detractors were the bad guys. And I think we should take this to heart. We should see this as an example of how easy it is to get radicalized; if you think of yourself as a paragon of virtue, you are going to think that whatever you see as good and right is an objective fact. Most people don't know this, but the majority of terfs start out as trans allies. You are not immune to propaganda! You are not immune to falling into dangerous ideologies!!!

This is why the most important thing you can do as an activist is to listen. Do NOT think you're above being wrong; do NOT develop a god complex; do NOT form an identity out of being right all the time. Involve yourselves in the groups you claim to speak for. Listen to trans women; share resources that help trans women; familiarize yourself with the diversity of experiences that trans people have and the struggles they face.

No, none of you are as bad as JKR because you don't have her money or her power. You will likely never have the capacity for harm she does. But check yourselves. Do not affirm yourselves into thinking you always have the moral high ground. Watch yourselves; humble yourselves; check yourselves for signs of cult behavior and internalized prejudice. You are always learning. You will always be learning. Do not allow yourselves to get a power trip from brushing off marginalized voices.

@bits-and-pieces-of is correct

WEAR SPF 50 OR HIGHER SUNSCREEN PLEASE.

I forgot to put it on, went into the pool, and now I have a second degree burn. My blisters popped, and my upper back, along my shoulders, is dry and cracking. I'm very swollen and I can barely move my arms above my head.

Please wear sunscreen! 🧴🧴🧴

For all of the northerners that stood up for Texas during our freeze and said, "Don't make fun of them, they've never dealt with this before. Their infrastructure isn't made for snow and freezing."

This one is for you.

Where I live 108°F with 80% humidity with no wind is normal.

Pacific North West is dealing historic best waves 35-40°C or 95-105°F.

First of all. Don't make fun of them for bitching about the heat. Just like Texas isn't built for a freeze and our pipes burst, Pacific North West isn't built for heat and a lot of their homes don't have AC.

If you live somewhere with a high humidity like 80+ HUMIDITY IS NOT YOUR FRIEND. The "humidity makes it feel cooler" is a lie once it gets beyond a point.

If you live somewhere with a lower humidity, misters are nice to cool off outside.

Once you get over 90°F (32°C) a fan will not help you. It's just pushing around hot air. (I mean if you can't afford a small AC unit because they're expensive as hell, by all means a fan is better than nothing).

If you have pets, those portable AC units aren't safe. If your pets destroy the outtake thing, it'll leak CO2. Window units are safer.

Window AC units will let mosquitoes or other small bugs in. Sucks, but that's life.

Now is not the time to me modest. If you have to cover for religious reasons, by all means. If you don't, I've seen people wear short shorts and a swim top. It's not trashy if it keeps you from getting heat stroke.

If you do have to cover up for religious reasons, look for elephant pants or something similar. They're made with a breathable material.

Shade is better than no shade, but that shit it just diet sun after some point. Don't think shade will save you from heat stroke.

I know the "drink your water" is a fun meme now, but if you're sweating excessively you need electrolytes. Drink Gatorade, Powerade, or Pedialite PLEASE. I don't care if you're fucking sitting in one spot all day. That shit WILL save you from heat stroke.

Most importantly. RESEARCH THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN HEAT STROKE AND HEAT EXHAUSTION PLEASE!

If you're diabetic and can't drink Gatorade, mix water, fruit juice, and either lite salt or pink salt

If you can afford it, cover windows with thick curtains to insulate the house

If you have tile floors, lay on them with skin to tile contact. If you don't, laying your head on cool counters works too.

If the temperature where you're at is hotter than your body temperature, don't wear heat wicking clothing. Moisture wicking is safe though.

Check your medication labels. Many make you more susceptible to sun and heat

-Room temperature water will get into your body faster. This is something I learned doing marching band in high summer in Georgia, and it saved all of our asses. Sip it, don't gulp it, especially if you're getting into the red; same goes for whatever fluid you're drinking. And just in general drink during the day.

-If you are moving from an air conditioned space to an un-air conditioned space, if at all possible try to make the shift gradual. When my dad and I were working outside and in un-ac houses a few years ago, he'd turn the air down to low in the truck about ten-fifteen minutes before we got where we were going. This way your body doesn't go from low low temps to high temps. S'bad for you.

-If you can, keep your lights off during the day. Light bulbs may not generate a lot of heat, but the difference is noticeable when it gets hot enough. I literally only turn my bedroom light on in the evening when it gets too dark.

Don't be afraid to just like... pour water on yourself if you need to. The evaporation will cool you off.

Put your hand to the cement for 15 seconds. If you can't handle the heat, it'll burn your dog's paws. Don't let them walk on it.

Dogs with flat faces are more prone to heat stroke. Don't leave them out unsupervised.

Frozen fruit is delicious in water.

Wet/Cold hat/handkerchief on your head/neck will help you stay cool.

Pickle juice is great for electrolytes! You can even make pickle juice Popsicles!

Heat exhaustion is more, "drink water and get you cooled off." Heat stroke is more "Oh my god call 911."

Image Description provided by @loveize

[Image description: an infographic showing the difference between heat exhaustion and heat stroke. The graphic is labeled "Heat Dangers: First Warning." Signs of heat exhaustion: faint or dizzy, excessive sweating, cool, pale, clammy skin, rapid, weak pulse, muscle cramps. If you think you or someone else may be experiencing heat exhaustion, get to a cool, air-conditioned place, drink water if conscious, and take a cool shower or use cold compress. Signs of heat stroke: throbbing headache, no sweating, red, hot, dry skin, rapid, strong pulse, may lose consciousness. If you think you or someone else may be experiencing heat stroke, call 911.

Be safe.

That's like saying racism affects white people too

inasmuch as most leftists rn are willing to admit that women are oppressed on the basis of being women, they really really really want you to name men as an equally victimized class. and of course you cannot acknowledge men as a class of people who benefit from women's oppression!

so where does patriarchy come from? a magical system that harms everybody equally and benefits nobody at all, forced upon society by some kind of mysterious and unknowable force? it's probably best that we just avoid talking about it forever because it's not that important anyway and there are real problems to worry about instead

All sea food is so delicious... shrimp is good, fish is good. I wanna try crab and lobster. Calamari is my absolute favorite. Cod is fantastic, salmon is okay when cooked. Tuna is great with green onions and pickles.

I want to try crawfish and clams and oysters too.

Some of your favorite radfems like to eat crab. Block and stay safe

For the love of goddess, can y'all please stop calling feminists "terfs" in the notes.

I opened Instagram and a story was this

Like they really cant handle a women being right, this is giving....buffalo bill. Like you all are the ones tweeking out over a women who says biological sex is real.

[stupid-pig-came-home]

This is fucking terrifying. Male g*n*cide when?

the failure of sex positive feminism in two parts, digitized, 2025 🪦💐

Don't inject yourself with testosterone. You'll face vaginal and uterine atrophy. I hear it's painful as hell.

lesbians do you like big hairy butches bc I really want to go on T so I can look like that, but idk if it's attractive

ALL THESE TACTICS ARE TARGETING WOMEN. JUST SAYING "PEOPLE" KEEPS THE PROBLEM VAGUE AND NEVER PIN POINTS THE DISCRIMINATED GROUP: ALL WOMEN AND GIRLS, ALL FEMALE HUMANS.

Anti birth control propaganda, the menstrual cycle tracking apps, and the abortion ban are all tactics use to target Women and Girls..

It's misogyny, plain and simple.

this might sound stupid but I can’t help but believe that the new wave of “birth control is actually horrible for your body, you need to get off it immediately” misinformation from influencers and the ‘natural cycle tracking’ apps suddenly being advertised is a sneaky underhanded way of causing more unplanned pregnancies that people now cannot abort. now is possibly the worst time ever to turn towards ‘natural family planning’

Comparing a Woman whose donating her book profits to Women's shelters VS a man who RAPED MULTIPLE WOMEN AND CHILDREN.

She wants All Men kept out of Women's spaces and facilities and HE wants to kidnap Latino families and send them to a torturous prison in El Salvador.

It's like comparing Water to Lava.

Misogyny is a cancerous lump on people's brains.

“I know it’s just jokes” you’re being groomed by gender to make excuses for grown men perving on you.

You know what happened but you can’t fit it into the pattern of male violence because you think of yourself as a privileged man and him as a woman. So this will go in the pile of vaguely icky experiences you’ve had with the gender community, and you won’t have the words to see the common factor in all of them until you finally peak.

[stupid-pig-came-home]

It's ugly and that triangle in the corner is a festering cancerous lump.

The blue, pink and white part was made a pedophilic autogynephile

I think that we should start progress pride flag discourse. I'll start: I hate it.
