still amazing to me how this political assassination actually resulted in everyone being like "yeah, the murderer had a point", really shows that political violence like this can actually be seen as justified by society
hot take: infodumping and mansplaining are actually very distinct and easily distinguished and it is a myth that they get frequently confused, the myth comes from the fact that some autistic men just do both simultaneously 🤷♀️
Known transphobe J.K. Rowling is now reported to be an active exec producer on the ‘HARRY POTTER’ series where she will be involved in the show’s decision-making.
(Source: Deadline)
she’s a 10 but she’s also a 15/15 that can’t be countered, you get an extra turn when you cast her, and she has flying, protection from spells that are one or more colors and annihilator 6.
when people say “germany understands nazism” you need to contextualize it with the fact that the afd is currently at 24% in polls, which would make it the second strongest party, while simultaneously planning mass deportations of non-white Germans.
this kind of tweet is why fujomoder is extremely annoying, always ignoring actual power dynamics and transmisogyny to go like “but crossdressers also deserve respect 🥺”
fix your internalized transmisogyny fr
I love that my company has a people team instead of an HR department, because they will act exactly like an HR department, but also occasionally get upset when you call them HR instead of people team
I’ve seen a lot of comments about CD Project RED‘s transphobia in cyberpunk 2077, but not a lot of contextualizing this with the pushback against lgbtq+ rights in poland by right wing/christian groups, and how that ties into the global pushback against “gender ideology”
ich hab das schon mal gesagt aber großraumbüros sind nach wie vor einfach die legale variante der corona-party. warum rufen gewerkschaften eigentlich nicht zu streiks auf, arbeitsschutz sieht halt auch anders aus als während einer pandemie so weiter machen wie zuvor
MM/DD/YYYY is how ppl talk. "On January 19th 2024" is normal speech. Who the hell says "On the 19th of January 2024"? Are you writing a letter to your wife from the Civil War? "My dearest Ernestine it is the 19th of January and each day my longing grows for you immensely"
Oh my fucking god you actually fucking idiot I have an “actual” vagina that I had an “actual” exam of today. It was my first annual since my endometriosis laparoscopic surgery and it was painful but manageable and I had a Pap smear too!
@ellle_em
it’s also a very common autism thing which the parents apparently don’t get at all? like, I feel like she’s actually grateful that her dad did it, but simultaneously struggling, and all the parents had to do is say that they understand and will give her a heads-up next time
@Vibing_Valerie
the hot take people don't wanna think about is the pushing of puberty blockers is more related to conversation therapy than it is transition
I don’t know which neoliberal mind came up with the egg prime directive but I will balance out everyone who adheres to it by telling literally every person I meet to fuck with their sex a bit with a little hrt to see how it feels
"You won't be remembered in history at all."
Eh, there are books with my writings archived in the Library of Congress. There is software I have written with my name displayed hard coded on cartridges and devices owned by archivists with massive personal collections.
@sally_hines
he is a conspiracy believer, they are conspiracy believers, most conspiracy believers believe in multiple conspiracies simultaneously, so there’s probably a huge overlap between their beliefs
a lot of men are feeling this is dismissive of their feelings and I beg them to look up the effects marriage has on women and men. men largely profit while women largely are worse off in heterosexual relationships. in a number of metrics.
I've said it before, and I'll say it again:
Women's historically-recent acquisition of financial rights has led to straight men collectively reeling from the culture shock of, for the first time in history, having to actually be likable to get a wife.
to be fair, it is incredibly hard to find autistic trans women, rarely are trans women autistic, only like barely 80% of the trans women I know are autistic.

@ellle_em
she says she’s half black, she probably was gaslit by her white parent into believing micro aggressions aren’t racist, she has obviously been experiencing stuff like this all her life and thinks she’s the asshole for being hurt by it
anyway, uploading my kaldheim shocks to my google drive today. each land has art that fits the kaldheim realm associated with the color pair, for most that art is from the kaldheim concept arts.
@ItsGutsNotGatsu
this is especially funny because the cited article states multiple times how blanchard’s theory is criticized as unscientific and unfalsifiable
this is not a leftist take, this is basically ideologically conservative.
remember in august, when rubiales kissed jenni hermoso?
this was universally seen as sexual assault and he was sacked for it.
this take is to the right of _mainstream society_
love all the replies that are like “if they are using the word ‘afab’ they are obviously not transphobic”, because you all don’t even know what transmisogyny is so you can’t conceptualize that queer and trans people might be transmisogynistic
while fascists are talking about grooming and try to redefine it as something that happens "without the knowledge of parents", let's talk about how data shows that the nuclear family is actually one of the main places where CSA happens.
I love it that whenever there’s this talk of “transfeminism is actually terfism” there will be some terf going into the conversation with “the term tme is discriminating against natural born womyn”
yeah really analyzing transmisogyny is exactly like enforcing transmisogyny. 👌
@ereshkigirlboss
''tme" in practice means afab and is generally used to refer to the AGAB of afab trans people and the power they have over transfems based on that. Don't play dumb
I’ve seen a lot of comments about CD Project RED‘s transphobia in cyberpunk 2077, but not a lot of contextualizing this with the pushback against lgbtq+ rights in poland by right wing/christian groups, and how that ties into the global pushback against “gender ideology”
@MrRodriguez89
you have anarchist in bio so you probably know that this is not a dichotomy in anarchist theory. but probably I’m overthinking your comment and you’re more making a joke about how to frame it
sorry but if you think only cis men think like this and not also tme trans people you are part of the problem by denying that tme trans people engage in transmisogyny
Do you ever just spend way too much time to create a magic proxy frame that combines elements of at least four different magic frames just to make a shitpost that probably only you think is funny?
pride parades in poland are literally attacked by neo nazi groups while the police watches, the government and church demonize queer people at every opportunity, and it’s unsafe for queer people to be out in many places
this is btw the exact same rhetoric you will find marginalized men use inside any marginalized community when another marginalized men is accused of abuse within that community, and these are the people who were upset about the “trans men are the men of trans people” tweet
@feuer_ameise
@talia_bhatt
@bloomfilters
also what a banger. what a cool group of guys to surround yourself with where your bros are speculating about intimate partner violence because you think mean trans women are out to get you
I am actually kinda tired of people trying to hide their antifeminism behind rhetoric that paints all feminists as terfs because that actually materially harms trans women.
“but this thing that is over represented because it is more palatable to cis people also deserves representation 🥺🥺🥺” you are just an assimilationist shut the fuck up
You do realize that people are attacking *that game* for plagiarizing pokemon designs because if they get away with it with big corporations, they can do it with indie teams right?
This isn't some "I stand with Nintendo" bullshit it's "I stand against plagiarizm"
how are all the cissies in my replies discussing whether the game is transphobic or not (it is), that’s literally not the point of my tweet, the tweet is about the wider context, the dire situation of lgbtq+ people in poland
I’ve seen a lot of comments about CD Project RED‘s transphobia in cyberpunk 2077, but not a lot of contextualizing this with the pushback against lgbtq+ rights in poland by right wing/christian groups, and how that ties into the global pushback against “gender ideology”
I actually do not trust christian anarchists lol, sorry if you get offended by people not trusting you that’s already a problem, christianity is a hegemonic religion
if you think TIM and TME have any analytical similarities, you are just not equipped to be part of any kind of discourse on queer politics, you clearly have no clue about anything, maybe read a book or two and talk to queer people in real life idunno.
actually it’s not that I do not know how to explain it but I feel exhausted just thinking about explaining everything you don’t know for you to not see this. no idea what “body politics” is? how queerphobia, ableism, racism and hatred if the poor intersect with beauty standards?
Reminder that if you’re genuinely concerned about long-term use of puberty blockers and not just using it as an excuse for your transphobia, you can always offer HRT right away instead. They’re adolescents so undergoing gender-concordant hormonal puberty would be normal.
this is like when the certified tme terf expert was like “actually terf ideology is about hating men”, a terf came in and was like “no actually we specifically hate trans women”, they had a nice conversation with each other and it prompted no self reflection whatsoever
I’m gonna preserve this tweet forever, I’m gonna put it in a museum, I’m gonna create a museum just for this tweet, it will be, for that museum, what the mona lisa is for the louvre.
the museum of talking out of your ass.

I mean, I think this would fall under microaggression as defined by pierce, but my point is that if (in this case: racist) abuse is normalized in your life, you never learn to recognize it as violent.
the way these people try to weaponize misgendering is so disgusting. (for clarity, athena’s “she” refers to bee and star boi has 0 reading comprehension)
if you’re cis, you can give 70$ to the polish group Kampania Przeciw Homofobii instead of buying a game by a company that doesn’t under that cyberpunk is and has always been political
Happy Lesbian Visibility week! Sapphics, let's show the diversity of our community in the comments. Post your incredibly beautiful lesbian selves and your lesbian loves.
Dont air me, pls 🥺

I've been doin a lot of custom cards/proxies for a commander cube I'm planning lately, so I guess I'll start a thread on that!
#mtgproxy

#mtgcustomcard
no actually.
these people tell you very clearly what it is about but you all refuse to listen.
they do not want to ban trans women from women's chess because they think men are smarter than women, they want to do it because they think we do not deserve to live.
