It really gives the game away when the anti trans orgs are calling the election of the neo nazi party in Germany a "glimmer of hope."

NZ should move on. There are no genes from other species in these bananas. These bananas have three genes involved in browning disabled, to reduce food waste. By one estimate, “more than 60% of exported banana currently go to waste before reaching consumers”.

Gene-edited bananas that don’t go brown could hit UK supermarkets

Scientific breakthrough could reduce food waste and make it easier to add the fruit to prepackaged food

We can learn from our queer elders 🫶🏻

when my masc lesbian aunt died, women just kept coming, screaming, crying, and saying they were her wives. Eventually we just had to start telling them to join the others. They were all devastated to learn about each other. Except for one who came in, kissed her dead mouth and showed us all that they had matching tattoos. She actually won all the mourning wives over and they all agreed she was the wife. It was so weird.

Did not expect more than a few people to see this but yes it really happened, yes it was insane

DVDs aren't low-tech. They're just things you can actually own, that won't disappear overnight, that don't require a monthly subscription, that won't suddenly get reedited, that won't start putting adverts in the middle and that won't sell your data to the worst people in the world.

“Sex questioning” has always been a thing Gender nonconformity has meant different things to people across time and cultures Having been a butch woman and now a trans man, I’ve only been questioned or challenged when using women’s bathrooms, pre transition. That questioning started when I was 13!

Afterglow by The Wild Things on Apple Music

Listening to The Wild Things for the first time. If you like rock, you SHOULD look them up. Pete Townshend played on a few songs on their 2024 album, Afterglow. That’s what I’m listening to. Very cool. (Link below)
