No. The Thing is a movie about a bunch of people who all distrust and hate each other trapped in one building as the tension between them slowly builds until it reaches a breaking point. It's a Thanksgiving movie.

Many men feel the stripper really likes them. Scientists say it's time to consider whether they're onto something

Chainsaw Man is simultaneously worthy of serious discussion for its heartfelt look at society and cycles of abuse and dehumanization, and it's also like, a fantastic nonstop barrage of shitposts

lmao

I tested a machine learning model designed to detect NSFW content. It marked this image as unsafe, because of Tim Allen's breasts (marked in blue) and my hand-penis (marked in green)

What is going on over there

As a Jew it doesn’t seem that hard to understand that if people are protesting outside a synagogue because they think it’s pro-Israel, that’s antisemitic but if they’re protesting outside a synagogue because it’s hosting an event encouraging people to move to illegal settlements, that’s fair game.

imagine having to hear shit like "study confirms giving diabetic children insulin reduces their death rates by 100%" as if that hasn't been known for like a hunred years. that's what being trans is like

Every elite authority in the UK appears to have lost their mind in precisely the same way

Any time corporate executives are in a room together and don't know they're being recorded, the transcript is like: "Christ, I hate our customers. We're agreed that we all hate our customers? Let's lie to the IRS, criminally. Did I mention the Holocaust never happened? Put more lead in our soda."

you can name basically any healthcare at all. ones with obvious known dangers, ones with lesser known dangers. From radiation being shot directly into your eyes to botulinum toxin injected into your lips. they're all available both on NHS or via private. But not hormone blockers if you're trans.

my idea for lowering costs: increase supply their idea for lowering costs: i really dont know maybe reduce demand what if more people died earlier or didt go to the doctor

This is your sign btw that you should call Mastercard

Seeing how much of the right-wing on Twitter is just bot farms, kinda lays bare how much hate and hatred is a project that needs to be constantly maintained, a fire that needs to be fed all the time lest it go out for a moment, so much time, effort, and resources to keep people angry and hateful.

Anecdotal, but in June a pal returned from Glastonbury and Wimbledon, comically sunburned from both. "Ha!" I said, "remember when we were kids, every year it was mudbaths at the main stage and rain-stopped play on centrecourt? That was the *whole* deal with both those things- oh right jesus fuck".

This one really is useful because you won’t see a more clear demonstration of one of the most damaging political phenomena of the era: the reactionary professional mind rejecting unacceptable reality, only able to process and comprehend it via something close to conspiracy theory.

Whoa it's almost like this entire cultural movement is based on fake bullshit at every level and our leaders should stop letting fucking social media dictate policy

Cis people, how many times have you been asked to describe how you masturbate, and what you think about when you do, to access healthcare on the NHS?

Id you havent been calling your representatives about KOSA and other bills, NOW is the time to start doing so

parental consent lmao, fuck that shit, parents should not have control over their children’s bodies actually

I remember my son having to answer questions about how he felt about his ovaries and cervix!!?? 😖 I mean WTAF!!! As a cis woman I have NEVER had to answer questions like that! It’s just TOTALLY irrelevant! 😣 These kids are just lab rats that the transphobes don’t care about!

it's actually really good our stock is down $500 billion, you fool, you absolute simpleton www.businessinsider.com/jensen-huang...

Handing power to transphobes is handing power to abusers. Always.

Heard it somewhere ages ago (like more than a decade before I started transitioning, I think) and it just stayed with me. Rattled around in my head like an echo, always at the edge of my thoughts. When I finally came out, I didn't even have to think about picking a name; mine had picked me already

Trans people have exhaustively detailed the links between the anti-trans and anti-abortion movements, we warned that transphobia was a wedge issue for the religious right to roll back women's rights, only for us to be ignored, and of course UK TERFs are setting their sights on abortion.

And none of this should be in any sense a surprise to anyone, not simply because those links were open and obvious, but because you either believe in bodily autonomy or not. Either a person has the right to bodily autonomy or they don't, be it reproductive healthcare or transition healthcare.

Rolling out the Matt Christman quote from after Charlottesville (2017) again:

Every once in a while, I check my son's Steam reviews.

Earlier today, I was notified that someone was at my door. This is who it was:

if youre trans and youre struggling to justify why you as a person should be allowed to take up space in the universe just consider that by your sheer existence you make a lot of the worst people on earth mad enough that they will die early deaths from stress. so thats a p good reason

ofc i also endorse all the "im valuable as a person" and "i have a unique soul with which to provide the world" kinda justifications for continuing to exist, but i know from personal experience that not everyone vibes with those at all times so this was my alternative

hey look its the best and most comprehensive practical resource for doing feminizing HRT and instead of paying $1800 for a year’s subscription to it you can read it for free

i know im preaching to the choir here but yall know the violence done to trans women specifically is demonstrative, theyre making an example out of us to keep everyone in line, right ? theyre saying "this is what will happen to you if you break our gender rules"

its the same violence visited upon women with buzzed hair, men who want to paint their nails, women who want an abortion, men who have never cared for sports, women who value education and career over family. same violence, different form

there is a System and there are Rules and you cannot Break those rules. transphobia is dedicating yourself to a system imposed upon you, that traps and defines you too. dont you want to be free ?

trans people who kill themselves because they aren't allowed to be themselves are murdered

integrating law enforcement into OF paves the way for government censorship, intimidation, and punishment of anyone the admin declares not sufficiently "normal"

I’m howling.

why is windscribe vpn being transphobic on the company twitter account in lundukes replies what is going on

On this Trans Day of Remembrance, I would have you remember that there are trans people alive who need your action now, not your reflective words later. Remembering us is not enough.

We need a word to describe how the media makes sure that it sets its own news agenda on TDOR, trans day of visibility, Pride Month, and the anniversary of Brianna Ghey’s murder. It happens every year, and it’s shameless. I’d like to propose: “flooding” - like “flooding the zone”.
