I'm sick of the conversation around Hunter Bidens pardon I keep hearing. It's a selfish abuse of power by Biden, using a downright corrupt US legal system because he's aware that same downright corrupt system won't be capable of delivering justice and shouldn't be respected.

The sheer entitlement of men never ceases to amaze me. I'm a grown ass adult, who do you think you're trying to scold for not getting back to you in under 10 goddamn minutes?

It's my birthday, and what I'd really love to see is silly pokemon nonsense or serious political discussion and nothing inbetween

There needs to be education about this game only having 30 turns. My opponent just conceded because on turn 31 I'd win, but there is no turn 31, pay attention to the turn number

I said cis on twitter so I'm putting this here so people can actually see it
An image describing the term V-coding taken from wikipedia, that reads "a practice of assigning trans women placed in men's prisons to cells with aggressive cisgender male cell mates as both a reward and a means of placation for said cell mates, so as to maintain social control and to, as one inmate described it, "keep the violence rate down". Trans women used in this process are often raped daily. The process has been described as so common that it is effectively "a central part of a trans  woman's sentence" "

The tweet showing this picture is a quote tweet replying to someone saying "people need to concede on edge cases like women's prisons" regarding trans rights.

The quote tweet reads ">Looks up the Wikipedia article on V-coding >Realises what monsters people are for making the concede argument"A reply to the v-coding tweet that reads "to be fair, this is not unique to transgender folk"

I reply to this in a thread of 7 tweets. The first reads "While sexual assault isn't uncommon in men's prisons, especially to queer men, the practice of it happening to trans women is so common that it can be considered a part of what keeps the prison running, that placating of the most violent offenders with the abuse of our bodies"

The other 6 are in the next two screenshotsScreenshot showing 2nd, 3rd and 4th tweets of my thread.

2nd tweet of my thread "The fact that the prison industrial complex requires the rape of its inmates in order to function at all is disturbing, but what this is highlighting is that trans women disproportionately face that abuse and that prisons are not simply blind to it but complicit"

3rd "On a base level that means that a trans women sentenced for the same thing as her cis male counterpart for the same duration in a men's prison is actually facing a much harsher sentence, which simply cannot be called fair or just." (This is where I used the first used the term cis limiting the visibility of the tweet)

4th "Which means even if your opinion is "well everyone runs the risk of assault when going to prison" "its the sad reality of the matter", the fact remains that the harm to trans women by this system is intrinsic to it, that trans women's sentences are harsher, and in a terrible way"Screenshot of tweets 5, 6 and 7

5 "The general apathy I see toward that information tells me something, that our bodies, our health, and our pain is considered a cheap price to pay by a cis heteronormative society. Whether it be in politics, in healthcare or in prison reform, we are all too easily sacrified."

6 "This is institutional transphobia. Our lives are treated as worth less than our cıs counterparts. Pawns to be discarded, our livelihoods seen as edge cases to be conceded by people who even consider themselves allies, telling us "that's not my fault, it's just how things are""

7 "No one can truthfully call themselves an ally to trans women until they view our suffering with the same weight they do ciṣ people's. Until then, you're not an ally to trans women, you're simply trying to avoid thinking of yourself as transphobic"

Here I will let you know there were originally 2 more tweets in the thread, discussing how this applies to trans men, though I thought 4 screenshots was a lot already so I left it out. If anyone ever reads this and would like to hear the other 2, I'll gladly respond.

Oh, so you can go all night? Alright, but can you go 30 rounds in Pokemon Pocket tcg and still win? Didn't think so
