Blue background with white text which reads: "It's scientific fact that humans come in 2 varieties: XX for female, and XY for male." EXCEPT: - You can be born appearing female, but have a 5-alpha reductase deficiency and grow a penis at age 12. - You can be born legally male with an X and a Y chromosome, but your body is insensitive to androgens, and you appear female. - You can be born legally male with an X and a Y chromosome, and have a penis and testes, 'and' a uterus and Fallopian tubes. - You can be born legally male with an X and a Y chromosome, but your Y chromosome is missing the SRY gene, which gives you a female body. - You can be born legally female with two X chromosomes, but one of the Xs has an SRY gene, which gives you a male body. - You can be born legally female with two X chromosomes - and also a Y chromosome, which gives you a male body. - You can be born legally female with two X chromosomes, but your adrenal gland doesn't produce enough cortisol, and your body develops as male. - You can be born with XX chromosomes - 'and' XY chromosomes (chimerism). So the next time you attempt to use science as justification for your bigotry, remember that God created humans in many variations, and maybe stop trying to stuff everyone into little 'male or female' checkboxes.

Image is of black text on a white background. It is a quote from Thomas Mann, which reads: "No worth-while possession can be neglected. Even physical things die off, disappear, are lost, if they are not cared for, if they do not feel the eye and hand of the owner and are lost to sight because their possession is taken for granted. Throughout the world it has become precarious to take democracy for granted -- even in America."

White text on a black background reads: "If Tesla goes below $114 Musk will get margin called. This forces him to liquidate his shares which will send Tesla stock into a death spiral and his whole empire will crumble. Musk will do anything to prevent this. And Trump will too. So... keep the pressure on."

User Eric Columbus @EricColumbus reposted a tweet with comment: "This tweet sure held up" The original tweet, dated 10/7/24, by @whstancil reads: "So apparently the word in the tech world is this: Elon's embrace of Trump is because Elon thinks he can essentially run the White House while Trump rots in front of Fox News. It's a way to circumvent the "natural born citizen" requirement and let Musk serve as de facto president."

Image is of a tweet and response. The tweet is from Elon Musk @elonmusk. It reads: "Defund NPR. It should survive on its own." The response from Politics In the Wild @politicsinthewild.bsky.social reads: "Around 35% of SpaceX's revenue comes directly from the federal govt. Less than 1% of NPR's budget comes from the federal govt."

A quote from A. R. Moxon is written in black text on a white background. It reads: "Historians have a word for Germans who joined the Nazi party, not because they hated Jews, but out of a hope for restored patriotism, or a sense of economic anxiety, or a hope to preserve their religious values, or dislike of their opponents, or raw political opportunism, or convenience, or ignorance, or greed. That word is 'Nazi.' Nobody cares about their motives anymore. They joined what they joined. They lent their support and their moral approval. And, in so doing, they bound themselves to everything that came after. Who cares any more what particular knot they used in the binding?"

Image is of a post from username Kim K. [Norwegian flag emoji] @kimk@tech.lgbt It reads: "in Norway, 'up and not crying' is a not uncommon response to 'how's it going' type questions, and I feel like that's a very reasonable standard to hold oneself to especially nowadays."

Image is a watercolor painting of an outdoor, nighttime scene. The background is mostly black and gray, with dark brown and black, leafless, twisty branches. From the middle right side of the painting is a lighter drawing of stair steps descending toward the bottom left. In the foreground are darkened, unlit path lamps on either side of the stairs. A panda is walking down the steps, with its front right paw slightly lifted as though mid-step. There is a tiny, stick-like line drawing of a dragon sitting on its back. The dragon holds a long stick with a small, red paper lantern hanging from its top end. The small lamp illuminates the area just above, behind, and in front of the dragon and panda with yellow and red light amidst the prominent darkness all around. The dragon looks up toward the light of the lamp. Beneath the picture is black text on a white background that reads: "The world can be a dark place sometimes," said Tiny Dragon. "But where it's darkest," said Big Panda, "your light will make the most difference." The credit in very small, light-gray lettering beneath the image reads: jamesnorbury.com | @bigpandaandtinydragon | facebook.com/BigPandaAndTinyDragon

The image is of white text on a black background, above side-by-side comparison photos of Elon Musk. The text reads: "Someone needs to tell Elon Musk that the hair transplant, the jawline surgery and the supplemental testosterone he has talked about are all examples of gender-affirming care." Beneath the text, on the left, is a recent photo of Elon Musk: a middle-aged, light-skinned man, wearing a brown, crew-neck shirt. His wide jawline and well-delineated, horizontal hairline together give him a rectangular face-shape. His dark brown hair is cut short at the sides of his head, but is longer and moderately thick on top. The photo on the right side is of a younger Elon Musk, wearing a blue-violet, long-sleeved, button-down shirt with a spread collar. In the younger photo, he has short, dark-brown hair at the sides of his head. His deeply-receded, arc-shaped hairline reaches back to mid-ear level. There is a very small amount of short, sparse hair at the top center edge of his hairline. The angle of his jawline narrows toward his chin, giving him a heart-shaped face.

Image is of an unkempt, older, pink-skinned, white-bearded man, sitting outdoors on concrete steps. He is eating noodles from a white rectangular container he holds with dirty fingers. A cardboard sign leans against the step in front of his spread legs. The hand-printed sign reads, "VIETNAM VETERAN" in large black letters and "PLEASE HELP!" in smaller black letters. Beside the sign is a metal can, from which protrudes a wooden dowel with a small American flag at the top. The man's left knee is bent, with the sole of his shoe against the ground. His right leg is fully extended against the ground, with his right sole facing the viewer. The man wears a black knitted winter cap with charcoal-gray brim, a black hoodie, gray pants, and black sneakers with white laces and trim. On the discolored concrete wall behind him, a few blue, spray-painted letters of unreadable graffiti are visible. The image of the man occupies the top one-third of a black background with white flecks. Beneath the image, white text reads, "Trump is talking about housing plans for Gaza, yet over 30,000 U.S. veterans will be sleeping on the street tonight. What happened to America First?"

Image is a paint or oil-pastels picture on buff canvas of a fat, cartoon-style, calico cat. The cat is visible from the waist up, as though standing in human form, and is drawn in three-quarters view, facing toward the right. The cat is wearing a red bow-tie with a white shirt beneath a medium-blue nautical captain's jacket adorned with 2 thin, golden decorative bands at the wrists. He also wears a white captain's hat with a thin blue band above its black brim, and on the front of the white part of the hat is an indistinct golden emblem suggestive of a military seal. The cat's mid-face, from the chin to just above the nose, is white. The nose is small and dark pink. The sides of his face have irregular, diagonal streaks of dark-gray, black, and orange tabby-cat markings. His light-green eyes are open wide with a look of concern or surprise. Both of the cat's gray paws are holding a ship's wheel, set inside the bow of a wooden ship. The rest of the ship is not pictured. There are large, white-capped blue waves, taller than the cat's head, curling up toward the center of the image from beneath the ship's bow and behind it on the left. There are 3 long tentacles coming up from beneath the right side of the boat, as tall as the cat. The top side of the tentacles are red, and the undersides are light yellow with suckers along the length. In the sky on the near right of the image is a gray and white cloud with a golden-yellow lightning bolt pointing near the cat's head. The text above the image begins with a large red capital T, embellished around it with green vines, and reads, "This Too Shall Pass." Beneath the image of the cat are the words, "ok... but like... when???"
