genuinely, I think it's a very good thing if you give the transfems in your life a safe space to talk about all the horrifically traumatic things they've gone through and also told them how fucked up some of those things are because we'll often downplay so many things and need to hear it
I am continually amazed at the things transfems have gone through and how much we all endure and still manage to persist. None of us deserve any of it, but we soldier on and sometimes it's nice to swap stories and commiserate about it

This is honestly probably the part of this wretched phenomenon that consistently chills me the most
The evil schmucks are evil schmucks. But then there’s the way every other institution that likes to spin flattering stories about themselves willingly plays along

The admission that this game wasted circa 130GB of disc space for no particular reason or benefit is kind of funny because it raises very uncomfortable questions other AAA tier game developers are not brave enough to answer.

It's not 'Self ID' When it comes to legal gender recognition. It's Self Declaration/Determination. 'Self ID' was popularised by the anti-gender movement. It transposes a negative pop psychology term onto a legal framework based on the human rights to dignity, privacy & bodily autonomy.

“I think we have to be careful with the Nazi comparisons” people are always waiting until we are five minutes until the Holocaust and then they’re like well it’s only ethnic cleansing not a Holocaust
Is this clear enough or are we still doing that whole thing where we pretend it’s about “crime”?

Anytime you encounter this in the wild, just reply "so?"
The only reason anyone would care if white people "went extinct" (and, Christ, get a grip) would be if they thought white people were inherently superior for some reason. Make them say that with their whole chest.

The Times is reporting that Rachel Reeves has said “I am — I was — a geek. I played chess. I was the British girls’ under-14 champion" with the challenge that in fact she won the under-14 title for the British Women’s Chess Association (BWCA) Girls Championship!

interesting to see her leaning on the argument that pro-palestinian voices are unfamiliar with the relevant history, as if any amount of historical context could justify what's happening in palestine
Hillary Clinton blames TikTok and “totally made up” videos for young people’s views on Israel and Palestine.
She says social media influenced “not just the usual suspects” but also “young Jewish Americans who don’t know the history and don’t understand.”
