probably one of the most disgusting things ive read in a while. heteronormativity is such a disease. a dangerous one

The thing is it's not about being easy or hard you don't become a sex pest by accident, the problem is that these men want to do it and they enjoy it and it makes them feel good and they are rewarded for it and that's so deeply incredibly bleak

Moreover, ICE must be destroyed

Listen up: I am one of those rare sex assault victims who actually took the guy who did it to court. It was a local scandal that put my initials on the front page of the local paper (not my whole name because I was a minor).

You have no idea what happens to women on the stand or in the press.

I'm one of those trans women. I worked ground ops for Artemis I.

I am torn between celebrating the success of my friends and peers and grieving how my dream of working for NASA was shattered by hateful assholes in Tallahassee

if a position of authority can be misused in this way, that position of authority should not exist. It's clearly not enough to simply change who is in that position, no more than praying that the next king be better than the last.

🚨New preprint and our results are rather concerning..

We find the "boiling frog" equivalent of AI use. Using large-scale RCTs, we provide *casual* evidence that AI assistance reduces persistence and hurts independent performance.

And these effects emerge after just 10–15 minutes of AI use!

"It is not hope. It is the specific exhaustion of people who have been denied hope for so long that the mere postponement of catastrophe registers as reprieve. We celebrated nothing. We simply exhaled."

The sort of women into tradwifery are into it because they believe womanhood to be a competition for the favor of the most powerful man they can attract, who may hate and revile and even abuse them but will provide for and shelter them from the abuses of the wider world.

i think you should support trans women on the basis that discrimination against us hurts us. when things are done to hurt us we feel it. we feel pain. we are real people. we want to be treated fairly right now, not in the future, but now, because it hurts now.

they are debating whether anal sex is inherently misogynistic b/c of Female Hole Topology on the other site & i just wonder where it all went wrong in the 2020s, why the patriarchs roam free & destroy the earth while feminist discourse has been captured by the profitable market of lifestyle debates

It's about defining sex as reproductive, immutable, and about womanhood as vessel for the Nation's future and little else. It's about reifying how, ultimately, women aren't supposed to belong to masculine arenas, and any who do can't possibly be women.

Fundamentally it's about regulating womanhood.

"it's my comfort series" i don't care "but when i was a kid" i don't care "death of the artist" she's alive

Please help my wife and I out if you can. It is coming down to the wire for us to be able to survive next month and we're moving into a new place because our lease has ended and we are down a roommate. Costs are higher this month and we need your help to get by.

It enrages me that the Iran fiasco had basically relegated Israel’s absolutely horrific assault on Lebanon to a sideshow which barely gets noticed. That alone should be a crisis that grips the urgent attention of the entire world and nobody even notices.

it feels like the entirety of the “left” leaning media commentary class has come together to normalize the idea that the best people to champion running left populist platforms are rehabilitated white veteran mercenaries who were too stupid to realize they had nazi tattoos. yikes! not great!

The newly emerging Israel hatred within the American Right is rooted in antisemitism, not in a genuine desire to witness the emancipation of the Palestinian people.
They still hate us and we are still not human enough to them. Nothing has changed they are absolutely not good people.

Comic based off a tumblr text post about a guardian angel. The angel's dialogue is as follows: "it's meee I'm your guardian angel hiiiiii 😇 okay🙏 so. in about six months, you're gonna die of starvation. 🥺 and if I don't protect you, I will get: #fired! 🫢 and that is No Good 🙅‍♀️ hahaaa So. 🙏 I looked into causes of starvation, and it turns out: Your death is totally preventable! 😯 Uh oh! 😆 There's more than enough food to sustain you without interfering with anyone else's survival, but you're not allowed to have it!"

Continuation of the comic, the angel says: "🤨 Whaaat? 🤷‍♀️ Apparently, your death is premeditated by thousands of things called "shareholders." So. 🙏 I've been killing people," with an art style change from cartoonish to devious anime girl when she claims to be killing people.

I love this text post so I drew it

I tried to push back on a follower of mine defending using "zio," got accused of being one, and then blocked.

So to make it absolutely clear: stop fucking saying that shit. "Zio" was coined by David Duke. The way in which so many of you have so easily slipped into this kind of antisemitism is BAD.

It's a pyramid scheme where men allow themselves to be exploited and submit to the authority of more powerful men in exchange for getting to exploit those who aren't men.

The modern male grievance movement makes the most sense when you see them as outraged over this implicit contract being broken.

General reminder that your local cops also do this to women they've arrested. Like, all the time, in fact! Turns out giving men a gun and a uniform and ultimate authority over others tends to enable bad behavior, who knew

They put Lud in an ANKLE MONITOR.

Lud has no criminal record. He was attending immigration appointments as ordered. His citizenship status only fell into question because of his mother’s divorce.

THE CRUELTY IS THE POINT.

DO NOT STOP CALLING YOUR REPS. Not in our name, not ever. #FREELUD

I started taking boobs pills last year because you gave me hope, so thank youuuu🫂

I'm truly sick of how people keep responding to the endless airtime given to the male grievance movement with "We should give them even more of our attention and focus" instead of, say, talking about its impact on WOMEN.

So the Lok Sabha in India introduced "The Transgender Persons Amendment Act", which basically rolls back protections for trans people, on the basis that you can't identify into a protected class.

It seems to allege that only intersex and "non-consensually transitioned" people deserve protections.

Indie deckbuilder All Will Rise's dev joins No Games For Genocide boycott and plans to hand back funding it received from Microsoft "We encourage others in the industry to join us and take a stand."

all will rise is handing back Microsoft money & pledging @nogamesforgenocide.com — it’s a difficult thing to do when funding and attention are scarce commodities for indies like us, but we hope more of our fellow devs and indie studios will join us in taking a stand 🔥

The literal mentality of the Upper Class.

Us unwashed, uneducated (not at a private school), abnormal (queer) and unskilled (<50k per year) are mewling children who are crying out for the steady hand of our Elders (Richer) and betters (richer) to guide us into being productive (slaves).
