If you'll sacrifice one, you'll sacrifice another. If you sacrifice another, you'll sacrifice all.

If it's wrong, it's wrong the first time.

Simple.
Well written and worth the read.

Oh, wow. Read this carefully.
That speech was simply appalling. Glad veterans in Congress are speaking out.

It's an interesting day for Internet watching. Is the paint dry or not? Is the dress white or blue?

Schrodinger's cat loves the attention... Or not, depending.

The differences aren't just political. There are competing value systems, competing morality and ethics systems, and probably a very deep cultural difference.

The greatest trick the racists ever pulled was convincing you they didn't exist, or something like that.

Yeah, this sounds about right.
"There are 510,000 NCAA athletes in the U.S....he’s aware of “less than 10” athletes who identify as transgender... If you believe many right-wing voices, you’d think it was far more than 0.001961 percent of college athletes...expert estimates of fewer than 100 trans high school athletes nationwide"

World views are a really complicated topic.

Remember: anything that appears to contradict your world view, your brain basically treats as similar to a physical attack...

This thread has me thinking, because I've frequently been upset that the world & society I came from never, in fact, existed at all.

My solution has been to form a society of one, live it, and spread it.
Where it breaks apart is, of course, the fact that Lynch did not then conclude that the problem was the Other invaded and broke it; rather, it was that this was never real and was built on a brutality to the weak. He did desire a return in spirit to the old, but recognized it as making fables true.

Montana, why?
Major alert: Montana may be about to pass a major anti-trans bill that charges parents with felony endangerment of a child if their child is on trans youth care.

It would apply to parents just passing through the state, visiting.

Would be the first law of its kind to pass anywhere.

Vote is TODAY.

This is legit.
USA people only:

1) What's the most substantial thing that you've done to reduce racism?

2) Do you take some action every week to reduce racism? Just saying "That's messed up!" doesn't count.

And don't reply to these questions. Just think about them. Answer them for yourself, not me or others.

Wasn't it like this in the distant past?
Wild idea... even visitors to the United States should be able to have freedom of speech without being disappeared and locked away.

Oh God it all makes sense now!

I'm living in a Halloween episode of Dr. Who!
It’s crazy how the generation that said “don’t believe everything you read on the internet” have now been completely replaced by a race of lizard people.

I came here to post projects and random things, but someone accidentally the entire timeline and here we are.

Anyone done anything cool recently?

A major element of privilege is that your speculative harms are respected as real, while the Other's real harms are dismissed as speculative.
March 24, 2025 at 12:35 AM
Yeah, this is pretty important to realize.
I realise that to cis people, when trans people lose access to gender-affirming care, it seems like we're bitching about not getting our little treats.

I have more than one friend whose body is currently falling apart because it no longer makes its own hormones and the government banned their HRT.
March 23, 2025 at 5:22 AM
Yeah this needs air time, spread the word
i had no comment about mcbride's reported comments because i assumed the reporting was bad and inaccurate, as it has been often when it comes to rep. mcbride, and, look, some of you seriously need to reset your fucking priors.
Sarah McBride did nothing wrong. She was literally advocating for us and the writer of this article completely misinterpreted her.

Here is the correction:

Please add this to your activism list:

Submit a public comment from the link below to tell the HHS that gender affirming healthcare is evidence-based and lifesaving care.

This new policy will effectively BAN HRT as it will no longer be allowed to be an "Essential Health Benefit" 1/3
The HHS rule banning trans care from many ACA plans is open for public comment now. Only 3 comments so far.

Embarrassing how the media is completely ignoring this. There's likely over 200,000 trans people on ACA plans (1% of 24 million)
