It’s wild to see “autistically” used as an adjective in this case to mean…….”diligently”? “With care”? “Using knowledge?”

i’m bothered when allies™️ say “oh, gender affirming care? 😏” as a gotcha cause -cosmetic care, hormonal care, and patriarchal consumerism is not synonymous with gender affirmation -the allies™️ saying it are into (weak) dunks, not trans rights -it makes the case that trans care is superflous

If a candidate does not support the human rights of a group of people, they are not in fact “on the right side of things except for one imperfection”. To vocalize a disagreement that a human should have rights is a poison that spoils their ability to govern. Hope that helps clarify things.

Three years on testosterone! Modern medicine is very cool!!
A side-by-side comparison of CJ on his first day of testosterone versus his third year. Changes include much more facial hair, chest hair, and their facial expression has changed from “awkward alien who just got here and it’s also the first day of school” to “guy who’s aged three years but seems more certain”A side-by-side comparison of CJ on his first day of testosterone versus his third year. This one is more focused on the body; while they’re wearing the same jean shorts in each shot, CJ’s body mass has shifted shape so he looks more square and his pecs look more defined. He also has a lot more hair on his tummy.This picture is just today-CJ, flexing while shirtless. He’s not the most muscular guy on the planet but please bear in mind, the muscles just kind of showed up one day.

The Wikipedia article for Israel is pretty blunt about what’s going on, as one example.
A screenshot of a section of the Wikipedia page for Israel, which reads:

“[beginning of sentence not included] conflict persists. Israel's illegal occupation of the Palestinian territories has drawn international criticism, with most Middle East experts arguing that Israel's treatment of Palestinians in the West Bank in relation to Israeli settlers constitutes a system of apartheid. After the Hamas-led October 7 attacks, Israel began committing genocide against Palestinians in Gaza. Israel and its allies, including the United States, deny that Israels’s actions constitute genocide.”

It is a sign of the total failure of our constitutional order that, a mere six years after we were all desperately praying for a miraculous scientific breakthrough to end the worst global pandemic in a century, that the President of the United States can do what he did today & face no consequences.

I’ve made this convenient graph based on research mapping mosquito bite locations on a scale of 1. How easy or hard it is to itch the spot 2. How much dignity you can maintain doing so, and/or how rude it was of the mosquito to do that
Christ where do I start, okay so it’s a piece of lined paper titled “Mosquito Bite Locations”. It’s a quadrant chart; the Y axis ranges from “no impact on dignity” to “indignant”, and the X axis ranges from “easy to access/itch” to “challenging to access/itch”. In the top-left quadrant are arms and legs. Top-right quadrant includes palm and ankle. Bottom-left has stomach, face, inner thigh, and boobs. Bottom-right are the butt and bottom of foot.

ftr matzah is bread. it is not *leavened* bread. also, there is a matzah-breaking ritual during the seder so even though el-sayed meant it metaphorically it is also literally true. this isn't a lie meant for jews, it's to get goyim to falsely think el-sayed was being antisemitic or insensitive.

I would fully accept if the lesson everyone took away was “we don’t have to be as cautious as we did a few years ago but exercising caution in spaces I share with immunocompromised people is good practice” but no instead it’s “everything’s cool now so shut up about it”

Sure the government, especially the one we have right now, has been entirely unreliable on providing actual information or resources to combat the pandemic, but guess it’s nothing to worry about right now because the case numbers are low according to that same government (/s)

Spouses cooking for each other is usually a much more regular occurrence than once every six days, my guy, that’s the weakest defense you could have come up with, is there any evidence stronger than “she offered someone who lives with her the same food she’s presumably cooking anyway”

Seconding everyone pointing out that it’s EXTREMELY common for victims of domestic violence to try appeasing their abuser especially within days after an attack, I’d just like to add that “offering to cook your spouse dinner after six days” is not even that much fawning to be so boastful about

Yes, we lost a lot. My career path was shot in the foot and hasn’t fully recovered since. I grieve the life I could have had every day. But I don’t lash out at the protective actions we tried to take not to make things worse, because I’m an adult.

CJ Higgins @cegjeg.bsky.social · 02/08/2026
A huge example of an entire society experiencing grief but some being stuck in the denial/anger/bargaining stage. Most if not all of us lost the life we should have had because of COVID-19, but we wouldn’t have magically had that life by ignoring that COVID-19 was happening at all.

99% of the time, when someone accuses you of selective outrage, it’s a way of politically demobilizing you and shutting you up “Why are you angry about data centers instead of fast fashion” isn’t about making you care about fast fashion. It’s about shutting you up about data centers And visa versa
