I take exogenous hormones to change my sex. I inject estrogen every five days and take progesterone every day. Both are somewhat inconvenient. I check my levels every three months, and am attuned to dosage curve vs. mood. It is unreasonable for a cis man to think about hormones more than me.

Who says they “don’t make enough money”? Compared to what? You don’t need to grant the far right authoritarian party’s premise. You can write that they’re using arbitrary numbers based on no standards that should not be taken seriously, & you can just say that plainly instead of stenographizing

Our system of governance derives its legitimacy from the consent of the governed. When public servants use propaganda to manipulate the people they are supposed to serve in order to MANUFACTURE that consent, our SERVANTS soon become our MASTERS. Your tax dollars paid for this ad.

DoorDash seems to not care that ICE agents are shooting their workers while they on the job. Community members are the ones who have gotten Wilber medical attention in detention and legal support — without a single shred of help from this multibillion dollar corporation profiting off his labor.
An NBC News article reads: “Garcés Perez, who Lincoln-Goldfinch said lives in Austin, is a DoorDash driver. In an email, a company spokesperson confirmed Garcés Perez was making a delivery at the time, adding that DoorDash is investigating and would not release more information “at this time.””

Not sure if people know Wakefield was trying to sell a competing measles vaccine when he made up his fraudulent study about the MMR. It was only after that failed (because he is a complete fraud) that he started grifting off opposing all vaccines. It’s all just a grift. Antivaxxers are their marks.

Kid's sports have become an industry for extracting money from parents. Part of it is wanting to see their kids get a scholarship, but I think the other part is that parents have dumped SO MUCH TIME AND MONEY into this enterprise that they're completely unhinged -- it's supposed to be a fun pastime!

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

"They're not misunderstanding the film; they're co-opting a message"
Screencap from the interview linked in the quoted post

Marlow Stern (the interviewer):  You have one of the most renowned replies in Twitter history. Elon Musk tweeted out, “Take the red pill,” then Ivanka Trump enthusiastically wrote, “Taken!” to him, and then you replied, “Fuck both of you.” I’m curious how you feel about the co-opting of “The Matrix” by those on the right who don’t really seem to understand its messaging.

Lilly Wachowski: I mean, I can’t sit in a room and explain the movie to every single person who watches it. Even if I did sit in a room with Elon Musk and Ivanka Trump — yikes — it doesn’t matter. They’re not misunderstanding the film; they’re co-opting a message. And that’s what fascists do: They co-opt the messages of progressives and use it to their benefit to confuse and obfuscate what is going on and the intention of their ideology. They do it with everything. They do it with Martin Luther King Jr. Look at how they’ve changed the idea of what antisemitism is.

No matter how much you throw trans people under the bus, you are still going to get attacked. All you've done is betray a vulnerable minority, anger your base, and made the issue front and center.

The painful thing is how those of us in the disability community predicted this outcome - both that ignoring COVID and taking no measures to restrict it's spread would lead to a massive increase in disability, and that those disabled would be blamed for their own conditions.
