HRT saved my life

Who knows what evil lurks in the hearts of men?

a court has officially ruled that transgender people can have warrior ethos

every trans suicide is a murder

every trans murder is a policy consequence

and the bodies keep piling up as the elected officials who today tell us they care about us — ALL of them. — still label the hate against us as a “distraction”

sorry, the funeral i went to last week was not a distraction

Don’t understand why they so mad! They were almost as mad at me for being a boy badly!
when you're a boy people get really mad at you for wanting to be a girl

Girl who's been on HRT 6 years: I'm sorry to say this but first year of transition is Hell

Me (beginning of transition): pfft yeah whatever, I'm built different

(One year later)

Me (several arrows protruding out of my back): I WAS NOT BUILT DIFFERENT! I WAS NOT BUILT DIFFERENT!

Under the watch of Labour children in the UK are being slowly tortured and disfigured. May the whole party and everyone in it rot

I hate how every nation is living down to its stereotype because I’m trained to look for complexity in things, yet the USA is run by a caricature of crony capitalism that Soviet propaganda would consider too unsubtle, Russia is run by a Bond villain, the UK is speedrunning Children of Men, etc.

A fun bit in all of this is stuff like the railway nationalisation. We spent *years* with people pointing to this as Left Populism in action, it became a key litmus test for both left and right, and now there is a Labour government doing it and literally nobody gives a shit

Okay, I will admit that CA nuking Republican districts from orbit in response Texas, which just had it map overturned, is really funny
Whoa: A federal court just barred Texas from using its new congressional map, drawn by the GOP to target Dems.

"Substantial evidence shows that Texas racially gerrymandered the 2025 Map."

Court says the old map must be used in 2026. Appeals are certain. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

The Labour Party is pond scum and it stopped being a useful political vehicle at the time of the Miners Strike
Tommy Robinson is claiming credit for the language/policy being used by the Labour government (about deporting people found to be refugees once their home country is deemed safe)

Much like real Bushido, poster's bushido is a post facto romanticization of an earlier era of uncontrolled conflict, constructed by the inhabitants of a more centralized system to justify their own pretensions.
poster's bushido logically implies the existence of historical european posting arts

I work in Grant management: this would functionally end science as we understand it in the US
This has gotten surprisingly little attention — it's not even on the front page of @science.org right now — but it's really hard to describe what the SAFE Research Act would do to US science and scientists without sounding insane

I think Star Trek endures because it encompasses all of the fundamental storytelling archetypes: Man vs man. Man vs self. Man vs computer. Man vs sexy lady. Man vs cave. Man vs God. Man vs lizard. Man vs tribunal. Man vs Abraham Lincoln. Man vs ghost. Man vs boss. Man vs doctor. Man vs rock. Man vs

times reporters and columnists put a ton of evil into the world, but my undying hatred of every one is motivated mostly by this. yes all NYT. unforgivable.
If you don't already agree that there's a moral panic over transgender care, just read the New York Times' articles on hormone therapy for cis people and compare them to their hit pieces on the hormone therapy for trans people.

✨Here’s celebrating 18 months of medical transition✨

the process is so painfully slow, that on day like these it’s important to remind oneself of how far one has come, rather than focusing on how far I have to go. Every day I become more of the woman I dreamed of being.
