"you're a man" ad hominem "you were born a boy" sunk cost fallacy "you're amab" false dichotomy "you have xy chromosomes" false equivalence "trans people are mentally ill" non sequitur "changing your sex isn't possible" skill issue

This entire weekend

Elon's little serfs are quite literally begging journalists to come back because every publicly available source of data shows people have fled the platform and young people won't use it. They are literally begging regular people to come back. Don't do it! It is a website by and for actual Nazis!

That’s why I always check the tea towel section at the opshop. 1980s Sydney rail network linen tea towel, printed in Czechoslovakia…

Feeling aggressively listless and lonely. This is like the fourth day in a row of this bullshit. I hate it.

One of my classics

A male rock ptarmigan (Lagopus muta) in winter plumage. Ptarmigan is from Gaelic 'tarmachan' meaning "croaker". The p- was added when people mistakenly assumed it was a Greek word. A bird forever warning people: "A werewolf!" (just in case of werewolves).

Sneering douchebag: "You're gonna be famous on the internet!" The Internet:

You can't love movies without loving some bad movies.
