The BDS boycott against Xbox is specifically targeted with material goals. It is not a personal purity test one imposes upon purchases for the sake of gauging idealistic commitment. You cannot "what about" with other purchases when they are not part of a legitimate organized movement.

Why is this report not all over UK media? Because UK media has been not just complicit but an active participant in creating the conditions for trans people where suicide seems the only way.

We can call this what it is: genocide! Trans kids are being denied life-saving healthcare, support in home, school and social life, and bombarded with hate from peers, media and the government itself - telling them they don't deserve to live as themselves. It's deliberate. Trans kids deserve better

Nearly half of everyone in poverty, in the UK, is either a disabled person or lives with a disabled person. Set that to music.

The healthcare industry is making fat stacks by selling meds that they refuse to sell to people like me in lieu of telling us to go fuck ourselves

You see the real conspiracy is that a nebulous concept of "Big Pharma" is making big bux off of over-prescribing meds to a class of patients who regularly face immense barriers in accessing diagnosis, care, or being prescribed those fucking meds in the first place

"We can't possibly let those people vote, they're too left-wing"

my company took us one a fancy team getaway for us to do some design/brainstorming for the future of our platform and they opened with "we want to use AI to lay off a third of the clinical team by 2028" that's good thank you that's very motivating

Please boost!

it's really funny how many resources there are for learning characters in 3rd Strike, SFV, and SF6 but the second you hit USF4 there's a 75% chance the best you can do for your character are 12 year old vids that look like this

@tiddypills.bsky.social once again proving why Tolarian Community College wouldn't be half the channel it is without her

the more popular something is, the more it will be exposed to people who only have other popular media to compare it to, therefore everything popular is gonna be a little overrated and u have to be ok with that

disney's beauty and the beast is already a modernization of the tale, instead of being abt a woman who needs to learn to love an ugly suitor so that she can be rewarded with a prince, its abt the beast earning her love. coco is just the original version but for families instead of arranged marriages

i forget who said this, but i have also adopted the worldview that we've gotta turn around & start the whole "toxic masculinity" discussion over with the understanding that what we're actually talking about is men catching strays from transmisogyny

Char walked in on my mii watching a horror movie and now he’s just laying down like that on the floor while staring at me and telling me to smile over and over again

i’d go one further and encourage writing “terrible” things just for the hell of it and not even minding abt whether or not you might be able to turn it into something good later

YouTubers are dictators. "YouTuber" is an oppressive class, like pangender people or puppygirl people.

The UK Trans Experience: you can be arbitrarily included in a lawsuit that has nothing to do with you, be included in national coverage and have dozens of articles written about you, be found innocent of everything and still have journalists follow you to different countries to call you a pervert

Heard there's a scene in the Michael Jackson movie where a kid tries to seduce him after a concert and Michael says "No. No thank you!" and just moonwalks away.

Will never forget when my phone was confiscated at secondary school because I got a phone call telling me a family member was in the hospital, and this meant I had caring responsibilities. Told them and school still insisted on taking it off me even though I needed to, you know, do that caring.

Trumps shitshow around iran/epstien is part of the plan for those behind him Christian nationalists working behind him don't really give a shit about foreign policy at this point and it provides cover for their national level policy since Iran, they stopped talking abt ICE

Doctor Who has been cancelled again and they’re too scared to tell us.

Homelessness isn't eradicated not because it's too expensive, but because the rich and powerful want poor workers to see what will happen to them if they pass up their subsistence jobs. Homelessness is a visible threat to those at the margins not to ask for more.

I'm not sure if knowing what a Markov chain is gives me a huge leg up in not anthropomorphising the Words Machines, but more people should try to understand that this stuff fundamentally is about generating sophisticated word clouds.

All the misinformation that has ever been produced is given exactly much weight as all the data that has been rigorously tested and expert approved. And then the AI output itself is fed back into the machine and all those mistakes are given more weight because they are included more frequently.

This. Reminder that shes not just a bigot with bad opinions She actively funds hate groups taking regular trans people to court for doing their jobs, signal boosts lies about individual trans people to her millions of followers and lobbies courts and government to attack us

On a related note, I thought the people who made this site were free speech fetishist libertarians? That's the defence busted out when we ask why known famous transphobic figureheads aren't moderated, but it's "intolerance" to criticize a religious hegemony that dehumanises me?

The point where 40k's satire fundamentally fails really comes down to the conflict between how Satirical Space Catholic Empire needs to be cringe, but Marketable Soldier Miniatures need to be cool

Reminder that it was a mainstream belief that the root cause of widespread child sexual abuse among Catholic clergy was not pedophilia, but homosexuality. Reminder that the church opposes abortions and condoms, even to prevent HIV transmission, which caused HIV rates to go up in some regions

"some cultures are worse than others... not mine tho, I'm a rich white American. my culture is obviously the best please don't look too much into that but if you do me and the president will call you unpatriotic and say you hate America. but also it's forbidden to say anything about other cultures"
