okay so this anecdote in Margaret's obituary has me crying because this is exactly what it's like being in tech and trying to anticipate failures and having men basically tell you you're being hysterical and then you have to fix it later

"the Lauren error": One day, her daughter Lauren, then four years old, was playing with the command module simulator at the
Instrumentation Lab when she somehow activated a pre-launch program, called P01, while the simulator was in midflight - which
crashed the simulator altogether. Hamilton created a program add-on in the technical documentation warning users not to launch P01 during flight.
She also proposed a software fix to prevent the error happening during a real mission, but she was overruled on the grounds that the highly trained astronauts were never going to make that same mistake. Yet during the Apollo 8 mission in 1968, that's exactly what happened: Jim Lovell inadvertently launched P01 during the flight, causing the on-flight navigational data to vanish. Hamilton and her team were called in to solve the error, and after that her proposed changes were integrated into the program. This was an early example of "defensive" programming, the

There is no such term as “biological sex”. There is no abiotic sex. A trans woman’s sex is female. End of story.

The thing that frustrates me most about this "third gender" stuff is that it's living proof of how transmisogyny is deeply baked into patriarchal cultures, and how the societal refusal to recognize trans womanhood is millennia old, but it's been turned into Noble Gender Savage fanfic by dipshits.

The idea that women are given special rights based on sex is a remarkably absurd framing and not how discrimination protections actually work in practice. It can only stem from a thoroughly right-wing understanding of the world that believes marginalized people are granted extra entitlements.

I'll try to explain. Once Democrats succeed in taking a seat and passing transphobic legislation, the bulk of our supposed allies will relax and think that 'well, thats just reasonable policies put in place by our favorite darlings' instead of opposing it tooth and nail because it came from a GOPer.

The whole speech is good, but this part in particular is particularly relevant now. www.trumanlibrary.gov/library/publ...

A screenshot of a section of the linked speech by former President Harry Truman:

I've seen it happen time after time. When the Democratic candidate allows himself to be put on the defensive and starts apologizing for the New Deal and the fair Deal, and says he really doesn't believe in them, he is sure to lose. The people don't want a phony Democrat. If it's a choice between a genuine Republican, and a Republican in Democratic clothing, the people will choose the genuine article, every time; that is, they will take a Republican before they will a phony Democrat, and I don't want any phony Democratic candidates in this campaign.

But when a Democratic candidate goes out and explains what the New Deal and fair Deal really are--when he stands up like a man and puts the issues before the people--then Democrats can win, even in places where they have never won before. It has been proven time and again.
We are getting a lot of suggestions to the effect that we ought to water down our platform and abandon parts of our program. These, my friends, are Trojan horse suggestions. I have been in politics for over 30 years, and I know what I am talking about, and I believe I know something about the business. One thing I am sure of: never, never throw away a winning program.
This is so elementary that I suspect the people handing out this advice are not really well-wishers of the Democratic Party.

The goal of a trans woman is to be entertaining or pretty or personable enough to be able to afford to survive and or help your friends survive but not so well that everyone notices you or your friends are maybe surviving just a little TOO well and therefore must be destroyed.

Please learn that "you don't apply the same rules to yourself as you do to others" isn't "exposing" conservatives, and definitely not an effective means of shaming them. They are very intentional and deliberate about this! It's an exercise of power, of deeming themselves exceptional and superior.
