I was working at Wold Market and a customer wanted some gender but we were out. They called the manager who offered them mine as a floor model. After that I just had to scrape something together from the break room.

Cis people do not understand how much trans people's rights have regressed in just 5 years. 5 years ago, there were none of these restrictions. 19 states banned legal recognition 21 states have bathroom bans 8 states ban gender marker changes on DLs 25 ban gender affirming care for trans youth

Went to a pride festival today. Some cis (allies?) were talking: A: It's so hard what they [trans ppl] have to go through. We just got the gay stuff. B: And people don't understand it's not a choice. Who would choose to make life harder? 1/

I don't read Archie, but the Veronica x Betty shippers should be going off.

Betty and Veronica from the Archie comics are standing together holding flowers. Betty has a hand on Veronica's back, wearing a rainbow shirt, while Veronica has a hand behind her head looking happy and embarrassed.

This is why the Philosophy Tube episode on conversion therapy in Britain was so carefully worded and went through lawyers first! It’s difficult to educate the public on topics that rich and powerful groups do not want people to know about

Heinlein had a few interesting ideas, but went super creepy and weird over his life. One of his nonsense ideas was that Heaven is for capitalists: the richer you are the better off you are. So, here's how we use socialism to game his system. 🧵

I've spent the last two months putting together this exhaustive analysis of the New York Times coverage of trans people. It covers 3,242 articles over 12 years. In 2022, the NYT shifted towards a hostile stance towards trans people in their framing. www.thedissident.news/exclusive-ho...

I am concerned about the CBS boycott. If it fails, CBS just becomes another right-wing propaganda project. If it succeeds, CBS shuts down and the right celebrates another victory. To actually defeat them will require violence by the public or the state.

Tonight I feel weirdly feminine. Not as in, "being feminine is weird," but as in, "I look in the mirror and I don't look that feminine but I feel like I do. I changed out of my interview stuff into a cami and cardigan and somehow that's enough even though it's less." Is it butch? Or some enby-ness?

So, a few weeks ago, St. George's University Vet School dismissed my partner and rejected our appeal. Their primary argument was that she couldn't meet the 6-yr deadline.

Who's legs are these? They're feminine but not a woman's. They're not a man's, but they have some hair. They're mine, but not quite. Because: I don't know what they are or what I want them to be. And yet they remain.

So lately I'm talking with my grandmother. She's a fundy, bible-thumping Christian, very conservative. Actually, too pious for any church (they all get the Bible wrong somehow). So, lately she told me stories about her childhood.

The name "Popular Science" doesn't mean we shift our coverage depending on public opinion. It means we cover relevant subjects that are rigorously researched, reliable, and grounded in reality. And trans lives are grounded in reality. We see y'all. No matter what. www.popsci.com/science/tran...

First-of-a-kind study shows encouraging data for trans kids who socially transition

Ninety-four percent of participants in a new study stood firm in their trans identity after five years, and "detransitioning" is rare.

Techbros seem to love Tolkien, so here's an analogy to help you understand what genAI is. GenAI is The One Ring. You think your use is justified, b/c you don't have evil in your heart. But it came from evil, it is intended for evil purpose, & anything you do with it will be twisted to that end.

Boromir from THE LORD OF THE RINGS, holding The One Ring. He thought he could use it for good, but everything done with the ring turns to evil. He was one of the mightiest warriors of middle earth, and he could not resist its powers. Others even mightier fell to the ring. Do you think you are stronger than them? The One Ring is generative AI.

I scared my first mom yesterday. She walked past with her kids and wasn't prepared to see me sitting around doing math. But after the vending machine snack, she made sure to cover her daughter's eyes on the way back. No algebra for those kids
