just because you enjoy true crime doesn't mean you have to turn the critique into a patriarchal conspiracy. gender essentialists and other conservatives love true crime bc it creates the narrative that victims are white women rather than labor exploitation of women of color etc
@punished_cait
yes! third trimester procedures are not elective at all. they're frequently very much desired pregnancies where something has gone very wrong. it's tragic and painful and people need to stop acting like this is some willy nilly procedure

bruh where were you when people who look like me were being put on lists simply for exercising their first amendment religious rights? gtfo

y'all claim AI will revolutionize everything, denigrate actual art, and then have thin skin about it. sounds like real beta behavior

as someone who grew up nerdy and bullied, i've always wished folks could just teach these kids real self love instead of reactionary spiteful nonsense

learning to cook is 100x the aphrodisiac that a diet of boiled chicken, broccoli, and rice is. sure you'll have a six pack but cooking your own meals is sexy goddammit

70-80% of unhoused folks are from the same community they reside in now. there isn't some mass migration taking place unless you've watched too much south park

i'm 37 and the singer in my band is 34. she and i'd never played guitars with other people before the pandemic. it's never too late to start either
@RottenInDenmark
amazing how the anti-LGBTQ crowd glosses over how prior to 2015 in much of the country, live-in partners didn't have legal rights. they'd lose homes when the owning partner died. wouldn't be able to file wrongful death or loss of consortium claims. they couldn't bury their loves.

reminds me of how politically correct was a term used by queer women to discuss subverting heteronormativity, how fake news was a term the left used to castigate the right, and how matrix redpilling has come to mean the EXACT opposite

this sucks for you. i'm friends with my wife's friends. they helped me a lot in our wedding prep and i feel like i know my wife better because i know her friends.

i earn six figures and have a professional degree, but hold a mortgage worth of debt. that said, i play in punk bands with folks who are largely working class. and they're all celebrating this HARD.
@emilyhxrrera
this isn't an urbanist point. gen z has lower rates of drug use, sex, driving, dating, and other measures of independence. i agree that driving sucks, but we should be worried about a generation that seems increasingly isolated
@hyperprisms
one of my college professors wrote extensively on this and how we haven't actually figured out how to overcome atrocities and instead enact victims rule and retribution

candidly don't see why this is bad. pulls wealthy investors away from gentrifying other neighborhoods, reduces carbon footprint per capita due to density

@AbhinandanShah
i write this frequently to amateur eugenicists on this website, but why do y'all spend your time thinking about natural ability? is it a preemptive defense of discriminatory product design? or are you trying to absolve institutions and organizations from failing to support people
@EmmaCaterineDSA
Funny, I come from a cultural culinary tradition that has zero salads. In fact, salads don't exist in many cultures.
I'm glad y'all figured out the perfect food for the rest of us.
@ArmandDoma
it's crazy because it also reinforces the idea that this is all a referendum on the backwardness of muslims and that some people don't deserve statehood or have less value as human beings
@rmc031
my brother in law is a trump supporter (single issue voter on guns) and he's moderated considerably due to our relationship. he also treats my sister better than most of the supposedly progressive dudes i know.
With all the discussion on Netflix's Cuties, CA's SB145, and just general public anxiety around pedophilia, I keep reflecting on the

Sex Offenders episode.
We've lost sight of real world child abuse in favor of cultural boogeymen.

this sounds like the line item included other expenditures. instead of accusing twitter's former employees of lying maybe you can clarify what's going on.
you're waging a victims battle after firing your comms team bud
I met the best activists and organizers in Kansas and Missouri. People who stared down Kris Kobach, armed militia men, and were called Nazis for supporting reproductive choice. Where being Trans or a new American can mean life or death.
The folks who vote in "deep red states."

my friend once told his german colleagues that he got "doored" while riding his bike. they said the word he used was incorrect and you can't verbize that noun. he asked if it matters since they know what he meant. and they said "we know what you mean but it makes no sense."

four months past a suicide attempt. i had been drinking nightly to cope with a grueling work travel schedule. cheated on a former partner and lied. hadn't played music in a decade. had no idea how i could chart a road back.
so thankful i didn't give up.

thought touring was gonna be my life and then covid fucked everything up for a minute. now touring is my life and I’ve felt fucked up for a minute.
