I've been hearing this "not the right time" argument for 40 fucking years. Trans rights or else.

That's what you guys said in 2024 too and then you refused to congress with the left and instead courted Republicans and Republican voters. You guys played purity politics in 24 and then lost the election and tried to shift the blame on others.

What’s the point of defeating fascism if you have to become just as awful as them to do it? Either we defend our neighbors from attempts to exterminate them from society or we don’t.

there's a misunderstanding of the power balance at play here your preferred candidate needs our vote more than we need whatever mild relief your candidate is promising (and most likely won't deliver) the onus is on them to be openly and loudly better on the issues, if they want our vote

After the elections are done and all the trans folk bit their lips and voted for candidates that threw them under the bus, what are you going to do? Are you going to stand for trans people *between* the elections? Or do they only exist to you when there's ballots or a tabloid insult to share?

Its more time than ever to vote with what you believe and not along a fucking party line. Half the democrats are demonstrating they would happily throw trans people under the fucking bus That isnt purity politics. Its supporting human rights If you dont you won't get my vote ever

the entire party can't even do basic symbolism, like boycott the SOTU or make sure NO DEMOCRAT votes for trump's shit-stained cabinet picks or shitty bills that condemn socialism or consign trans people to second-class citizenship - IT'S FUCKING DEMORALIZING. why don't you people understand this?

if dems were united and fighting tooth-and-nail against republicans, you'd have a solid point but we're stuck with a party where the largest caucus (new democrats) is more worried about DSA than right-wing extremism. you're no dummy. you have to understand how demoralizing that is for some people.

Funny how it's always the time for centrist scolds to cry about votes their preferred candidates refused to earn or outright pushed away. This script has become moldy and useless in its old age, much like Dem leadership. Go tell the Dems to stop purity testing out everyone Left of Reagan, you goof.

Not really unless you make them yourself it seems. I could only find one brand and it was a bit pricey. ($7 for 2.75oz). The nutrition facts on the bag seemed slightly healthier vs normal chips. Looking it up, they are easy to make. Same as potato chips. Just start thicker cut cause water content.

You can tell a place isn't an echo chamber by the people who won't shut up about it being an echo chamber and no matter what you do you can't avoid seeing their complaints. So anyway someone was saying Reddit is an anti-AI echo chamber on a thread about someone's AI slop Factorio mod...

Reminder that you can just say "this kink grosses me out and I don't want to see it." If it involves consenting adults and ONLY consenting adults, you don't need to make it into a moral thing. You can just be grossed out by it and not want to see it. That's fine. You can do that.

Skydance now owns Nick, Cartoon Network, Adult Swim, Comedy Central, and MTV, effectively ending US TV animation as we know it. Countless jobs will be lost, and fewer new shows will be created. An apocalyptic scenario for cartoons, yet it's maybe the 5th-worst thing about the Paramount-WB merger!

Blood at the Root is a black author writing a black boy going to magic school in the American south and is so very good but is more appropriate for older teens rather than kids or preteens.

Also, in case anyone wants "kids going to magic school" that isn't HP that you can read for yourself or introduce to the kids in your life, Earthsea by Ursula K LeGuin is iconic. The Circle of Magic quartets by Tamora Pierce are really good and geared at exactly the age group HP targets.

Let's be real here. The TV show is gonna do well, and so will Hogwarts Legacy 2, and probably nothing we say or do will change that. A lot of people just don't care about trans people. That doesn't mean you can support her and still be pro trans rights. We're not gonna give you a free pass.

It's really easy to just say you support trans folk, we're just asking you to put your money where your mouth is and not give it to one of the worst transphobes alive to show you mean it. If you can't even do that it's clear you just genuinely don't care about trans folk.

"JK Rowling is already a billionaire and everyone already knows about Harry Potter, what's the point of boycotting?" Nobody thinks boycotting will bankrupt her. We know she's gonna die rich. We're just asking you to show a shred of solidarity with trans folk. Absolute low bar bare minimum shit.

boycott it so your trans friends don’t get a sick feeling in their stomach when they come over to your house for a party & see a stack of HP merch on your bookshelf, politely excuse themselves a bit early without saying anything, and then go home feeling just a little degraded
