the thing is it doesn't matter what you do, because what they say you do becomes the reality. it doesn't matter how politely and calmly you voice your disagreement. It will count as terrorism. Their violence is speech, and your speech is violence. There's no such thing as well behaved enough.

Cynicism is often the easiest position we can take, surrendering before even putting up a fight. Empathy and hope, a hunger for something better, are worthier paths. After all, it takes courage to strive for better days, to right what's wrong, to seek the sun even through the darkest of clouds.

Imagine hating people who take Ozempic to help with their weight problems, or hating bodybuilders, or people who get cosmetic surgery. I mean there are some weirdos who do that sort of stuff but they’re nowhere near as common as transphobes.

The most fucked thing about the entire anti-trans ideology is the way no transphobe seems to be able to find a lick of empathy for people whose body doesn’t match their self-image or ideal self, even though nearly everyone has experienced a desire to change their body to match their ideal selves

I have strengthened my fascinations in few niche things and have learned to avoid oversharing for the sake of chasing praise. I adore and obsess over the code and music I have written over the years, I am passionate to sweat over the process, and I will run it back even for an audience of one.

Autism is a natural divergence from neurotypicality. It's normal & not the tragedy these clowns are making it out to be. Transness is a natural divergence from cisnormativity. It's normal & not the tragedy these clowns are making it out to be. Just deal with people being different than you.

Honestly, what I've learned over time is that in order to truly be intelligent, you HAVE to be humble. You have to be able to admit you don't know something before you can learn it. I hate that modern schooling teaches us to be embarrassed for not knowing something.

The bubble's already popped, it just isn't apparent yet because all these companies are being propped up with our tax dollars.

Nobody in the world, nobody in history, has ever gotten their freedom by appealing to the moral sense of the people who were oppressing them. - Assata Shakur Pic of the day #photography

Some transgender people see only darkness in front and behind them. The current climate is especially accelerating this. Transgender people just want to love the people they love and live their lives as themselves. Let's all join hands and change the world🫶🌏🫶

It’s still amazing how anti-progressive democrats assume that every person who criticized Harris and democrats didn’t vote in the general election We told you that your lesser evilism would lose the election, and we were right. And then we get blamed for your loss. Just zero self-awareness.

once again, if tylenol caused autism, america would have a better rail system

Just a reminder before the “big announcement” today. Autism was discovered in 1911 and the modern definition of Autism came in 1943. Tylenol wasn’t widely used until the 1950s. Anyone trying to tell you that Tylenol causes Autism isn’t someone that should be taken seriously.

Being nice to trans people really did turn out to be a load bearing part of liberal democracy ey

Really wish people learned to deal with the weird little thoughts in their heads and built trust that the things their brain conjures up and chooses to respond to does not reflect their morality. Your actions do. That's all this puritanical shit is. People scared of their own thoughts and feelings.

me, age 15: conservatism seems like a fundamentally evil belief system me, age 21: actually it is more complicated than that, things are very complicated and everyone has their own way of seeing things. i am very smart me, age 3x: no i was right the first time nvm

Shit, i've been found out

the fact that a sitting US president is talking about antifascism being terrorism should tell you a lot about what he thinks his own government represents

"Once you use ChatGPT, you don't want to think for yourself anymore" THAT IS A TERRIFYING SENTENCE

The need to silence your critics only reveals how weak and fragile you are.

That publication date…

Becoming increasingly clear we’re gonna have to build a parallel infrastructure for all the media we really love. The reason all of this is happening under the color of law is hyperconsolidation, dissent being traded straight up for merger approval, or fear of harassment.

I saw a bunch of cool leopard seal character today so it's my turn. She's a mean lesbian.

“SPECIES TRANSITION” (thread)

A grim reminder: these people will never be satisfied. There’s no point at which they will say “we’ve won, let’s enjoy life.” They will always be looking for someone else to punish, to revile, to dehumanize. They’re empty without that.

I can't get over how cute this sketch is already

Good. Trump isn't getting called on the bullshit his administration is doing nearly enough and if it takes the rest of the goddamn planet to kick the US away from fascism because our own government can't or won't then go for it.

If you're cold, they're... Well, they're probably not cold. But you should bring them in, anyway!

You want to be alive, but they want you dead. We’re a new, well, funded democratic group that thinks you can meet them halfway.
