I wish I had the ability to be conscience in a way befitting of a site like this. And that I was capable of having a single thought that's not an amalgamation of five different barely connected thoughts bolted together by three more completely random tangents. Alas... I'm sorry

Yeah, I think it’s important to remember that cis women are still of a subordinated gender. Taking T to please your husband better is not taking control of your own body and transitioning your sex… I’d actually argue that performing subordination to him to this degree is reinforcing womanhood.

It also betrays a certain ignorance as to why modern HRT exists in the first place or what it's used for. The modern transition procedure was very much not the intended usecase. It's not actually suspicious that a menopausal woman needs T rofl

They're literally taking T so they can be better at hetero sex after they've outlived their usefulness as mothers and their youth as girls. Like come on

It's a feminist killjoy thing, sure, but you can take note of how them taking cross-sex HRT doesn't at all disrupt their role in the gender caste system. That's crucial

I don't think claiming that the guy taking E to become forever-young or the housewives given T to fuck their husbands better after menopause are SECRETLY TRANS is particularly helpful, and it's certainly not true

Tying mutual aid to the state and politicians is in fact how we got into this mess in the first place! The point of mutual aid is replacing the logics of state and market not just tying them back to the state!!! We cannot be doing this again!!!!

numerous times where the response is some variation on "welcome to being a woman", claiming it was the trans woman's fault, etc. in general abuse, esp. abuse of women, is never taken seriously, but much of the world *requires* the abuse of trans women to hold the structure of gender violence intact
Something I almost never talk about bc it seems like no one other than trans women care is that when we talk about being survivors of CSA, abuse, IPV, all the violences...people don't care. Or they think it's funny. Or we're like, "exaggerating." It's not REAL abuse. Like if a REAL woman was abused

I think it’s important to insist on recalling, at all available opportunities, that this was specifically an attack on a trans instructor over an assignment about gender. Neither of those details are incidental; they are the center of the story
If you’re wondering why your friends in academia are a little on edge right now, it’s because an eighteen-year-old who hasn’t done the reading, doesn’t look at the assignment, and has does no critical thinking skills more complex than “because I think it’s in the Bible” can literally end your career

The University of Oklahoma has removed an instructor who was accused by a student of religious discrimination over a failing grade on a psychology paper in which she cited the Bible and argued that promoting a “belief in multiple genders” was “demonic.” https://cnn.it/4b6g3rd

“How can you suddenly dislike art when you find out it’s made by AI?”

For the same reason I can dislike art when I find out the employees were overworked and underpaid.

Because I care about people.

You dipshit.

Two of their major policy pushes were a more prominent gun culture and zero COVID restrictions

When we ask "what if that was your daughter," a common patriarchal question to dig for empathy over property ownership, we erase who is actually centered & protected in rape culture. What if that were your son, your brother, or your friend? And we know the answer. It's been very loud.

The confusion and conflation of ‘generative ai that is built on stolen artwork’ and ‘machine learning, character behaviour modelling and proc gen’ is intentional on the part of the grifters peddling the former. They benefit from murkiness of classification, because the latter predates their bollocks

The neat thing about Christmas is that it not only is the time of stress, consumerism, and coercion, participation being mandatory but that there's also stories about how anyone who'd prefer to opt out is a horrible monster who needs to be bullied into realizing the error of their autistic ways.

If you understand and agree with the moral and economic/political/labour centric arguments against genAI, then it should be obvious no amount of it is acceptable. I don't care how tired you are or how good you think that one thing that used some of it was. It's not that difficult.
Zero tolerance is the ONLY and FITTING response to genAI being used in production of media.

Sure, you might think it's too harsh. Sure, they might've only used it for early stuff in development, etc

Listen, it's not even a SLIPPERY slope, there is NO friction at all unless we speak out against it.
