Humans are interdependent. This is sacrosanct. Some people don't like this but it's something that will always be true.

and this means that sometimes people have a name on their passport and a name that they use that everyone knows them by, and they’re different, and that is FINE. the police and government can keep track. none of you know what my passport name is!! None of you!

your ‘name’ in the U.K. is whatever you go by. It’s whatever you say it is. You can have multiple. You can only have one at a time on legal documents, but you can change that very easily and for any reason at all, and use another casually at the same time.

okay, today’s spicy hot take because I’ve seen this three times already this morning: The U.K. does not have any such thing as a ‘legal name’ this is a good thing! unequivocally! this means it also applies to people we don’t like

As much as I agree that certain business decisions are stupid, we should NEVER assume that anyone who made those decisions are paying for that stupidity. Just somethin' to keep in mind.

really good post that i really need everyone to absorb
tumblr text post by spiribia: I think it's fine if somebody describes a piece of media as life changing and earth shattering and bone shaking and it doesn't do much for you. I don't think the person who said that owes you an apology or anything. that's just the nature of people being different people

But when we crave power over life—endless wealth, unassailable safety, immortality—then desire becomes greed. And if knowledge allies itself to that greed, then comes evil. Then the balance of the world is swayed, and ruin weighs heavy in the scale.

boss, the fascism
Tumblr post by user Nitewrighter that reads:
Me: I don't get it. I thought I was doing a lot better than I was a few years ago. I'm like 10 times more on top of things than I used to be. How does everything feel terrible now? 

The Tiny Me in OSHA-approved Hi-Vis Gear Who lives in my brain and pulls all the levers: Boss, it's the fascism. You're completely gunked up with cortisol due to the fact that your entire daily life is now underscored with a haunting awareness of the rapid erosion of your rights, dignity, and any and all social safety nets, and you're also bearing witness to the most vulnerable people immediately being persecuted. This creates a natural stress response that basically means you're going to continue having memory and organizational problems, as well as emotional imbalances.

Me: BUT I HAVE A BULLET JOURNAL AND I MEDITATE NOW.

Tiny OSHA Me: BOSS, THE FASCISM.

Honestly, one of the biggest toxification factors in social media platforms is there's no way for like 1 or 2 of your less shitty friends to just grab you by the arm and pull you aside when you're making an ass of yourself.

As I see carless/car-light folks gloating about rapidly rising fuel prices, just a reminder that not everyone can ride a bike/take the bus to their jobs in a reasonable time, and we are rapidly approaching winter, which makes that harder. Plus fuel prices impact other goods pricing. Come on y'all.

Trans rights is inherently a bodily autonomy issue. Just like abortion rights is. We can't have gender equity or reproductive freedom without trans rights. Full stop. You can yell at me and make up shit that you claim I've said if it makes you feel better. I don't care. I'm right. And you know it.

Because humans are pack animals, we are primed to believe that the things we interact with have intelligences like our own. The pushback to AI is us knowing that we're being lied to for profit.

Here's a tip: if a POC points out something you said is kinda racist, you still have the opportunity to course-correct and go 'oh sorry, I didn't realize that was racist.' Blowing up like this proves beyond all doubt that you are, in fact, a raging racist.

Ruaa is the caretaker of her family, including her injured mother. Displaced in a tent, they need support for basics and medical care. linktr.ee/safety4ruaa @divyampersaud.com
A pale purple graphic with the texture of linen, and an ink sketch of a purple watercolor rose. The title says Safety for Ruaa and is decorated with red tatreez olive leaves. The text says: Ruaa alone provides for a family of seven, including her sick sister—she is exhausted, in pain, and reliant on strangers for help. Give this family hope for better days. Make a weekly recurring donation to stand by them every week, and lift the burden from young Ruaa's shoulders.

Also, it looks pretty bad to claim your group is most at risk from or will be the first targeted by a harmful regime when there are multiple targets, some of which might not even be on your radar. Some of which might not really be on anyone's radar, because harm to them is so normalized.

It's not necessary to claim to be the first targeted or harmed by harmful groups/ideologies/agendas. For one thing, there are often multiple marginalized groups targeted at the same time. For another, harmful groups don't always advertise which groups they're targeting at the same levels.
