Running tally of AI garbage mentions in my company open house. Started at 10 Eastern Already at 3.

live your life in a way where an entire community isn’t celebrating your suspension from the game they play

People will say this about bikes when literal toys for grown men like this exist

trans woman's replies when she mentions that the democrats are leaving her and her siblings out to rot

"mmMm cis pEoPLe getting SURGERY or HORMONES is just gender affirming care!" feels spiritually the same to me as "did YOU KNOW transmisogyny affects cis women too???" empty gotcha that still forefronts cis experience, a glib workaround for just talking about how we deserve control over our own lives

seeing "transwoman" creep back into the non-TERF vernacular is some crazy work

if you're cis and you are asked by your management to police bathrooms, "can you confirm in writing that you are ordering me to approach customers to discuss their sex?" is an email no manager wants to reply to

LOL

male socialization isn't about whether it's real or not. it's a way to threaten trans women into social compliance. it's gender policing. When someone tells you that you are acting like a man they are not actually telling you that you are acting like a man they are telling you to be more submissive

Trans murder victims die twice: once in the body and again in the press

a 19 year old trans woman was killed by being stabbed 40 times at UW in seattle Washington I don’t wanna hear anyone talking concern trolling shit about white trans women in “safe states” overreacting at what’s happening in the United States

jfc i'm begging TERFy, self-hating pickmes to learn about the sexual abuse rates of closeted trans women growing up we weren't male-socialized, we were often violently "corrected" for stepping out of the role we never inhabited in the first place because they could smell the faggot on us pathetic.

dear internet everything: unless I say otherwise I would like to remain signed in for, in fact, the rest of my life

tgirl socialization is getting to hear all the horrible shit boys want to do to girls and then, more often than not, becoming the targets of those desires since there are effectively zero consequences for physically and sexually abusing us

trans women are the only ppl who are expected to accept that being in the closet is a privilege

I'm reluctant to speak up on trans topics these days because it's often not worth the pain caused, so I'm probably going to regret this, but disappointingly a lot of people need to hear this. Accusing trans women of "male socialization" is an astonishingly cruel, callous, and spiteful thing to say.

Dem leadership literally looked at Mamdani's landslide victory, despite their ratfucking, and then *continued* to appeal to people more willing to die in pain than see a trans person alive.

One of the reasons the Republicans are pushing so hard to kill ACA *while* making half of all their attacks on it focused on trans people, is that they're convinced the average American hates healthy trans kids more than they love their own sick cis kids.

"bluesky added moderation tools in order to ban a trans woman on matt yglesias' behalf" is kind of a chefs kiss founding myth for this website

Work is making me do call-behinds for drivers to get customers to answer the annoying survey they get after delivery. Can someone put me out of my misery?

apparently trans Achilles is having an algorithmic moment. anyway, buy wrath goddess sing.

I just found out the Seattle Mariners have a pitcher that’s just straight up plural and he’s ludicrously good apparently this is all I’m gonna be able to think about

Happy 226th Birthday to John Brown, the only white boy to ever truly understand the assignment

guy who only has the vaguest sense of what kiwifarms is, experiencing mild but persistent pushback for not watching his fucking mouth: "i'm getting a lot of kiwifarms vibes from this"

it smelled like chatgpt garbage, and lo and behold it's just scaremongering for ai services. get thee gone hallucinatory disinformation machine of fascism, may thermite get poured on your servers

if you want to support a companys employees in a unionization effort, don't preemptively boycott the company to try to support the union. that can actually backfire and harm unionization efforts. wait until you hear directly from anybody unionizing on what you should do to support them

Panicslop. This isn't saying it's human-transmissible so stop panicking.

The reason why you can't post your way out of being harassed is because posting explanations assumes that the people who are harassing you are acting in good faith and are genuinely interested in understanding your perspective and here's the thing: that's basically never the case.

cishet white men name searching themselves and collecting what they find into a pile and calling it a targeted mass harassment campaign. my brother in christ people just don't like you because you suck and are the worst. this isn't a conspiracy, you're just deeply unlikeable. that's all, that's it.

“How dare you call Palestinians Nazis!” No I’m calling one specific woman who acts like a Nazi, a Nazi. And you can’t scare me into pretending like she isn’t a Nazi just because you want to call me a Zionist because I think stuff like lynching is bad

Choosing to forgo medical transition in order to fit into the transphobe definition of womanhood to compete in women's sports is not progress.

Open enrollment time, which means time for me to see how much more shit and complex my employer health insurance has gotten! Fucking hell I hate this time of year.

It’s going to drive me up a wall that a rapist and possible federal informant is one of the more well-known ATProto devs, and people I respected for years are actively boosting said rapist while knowing full well what she did

i need wild rabbits to know instinctively that i am a friend

my very favorite Richard Dawkins headline of all time remains “British scientists don't like Richard Dawkins, finds study that didn't even ask questions about Richard Dawkins”

finally im allowed to post this funny i did a year ago

Hit my first V3! Getting over fears with that arete V2 last week was a huge help for that.

An already unacceptably right-leaning press corps is gearing up to go further right because a bad thing almost happened near them; they were in that position to begin with because they decided access to fascism is more important that accurately describing it

demeter when her daughter goes missing

"tgirl tops will bring you to a room like this" and it's a photograph of a poor woman's room and the joke is that we think it's funny she's poor

Probably not actually manually blocking, he probably told Claude to do it

So @why.bsky.team is no longer mass blocking via this list, probably as a kneejerk reaction to realizing he doesn't know how his own (likely vibe-coded) feeds work. He is instead spending his morning manually blocking trans people and furries

another one for lesbian visibility week!

the continuation, she asked Baiken her tricks

I think the state of this cursed country would improve if many elected officials were dragged out of their seats and beaten profusely with them I think if you propose and support a bill that makes sports bras a sex crime, you should be fustigated, regardless of the target demographic
