The gynecologist was surprised to learn I wanted an IUD because apparently another trans guy just recently told her, very confidently, that he can't get pregnant because T makes you infertile.

Guys. Boys. Dudes. Folks... Don't play with fire.

Testosterone can inhibit some of the other hormonal levels that trigger ovulation, making ovulation less predictable. Many peoples’ ovaries will release eggs less frequently, if at all. However, this doesn’t mean that ovulation entirely stops if someone is taking testosterone. This means that a person on T can still be fertile and get pregnant while on testosterone.

This is a controversial take that everyone will hate but it's one thing to feed your kid better, more wholesome food than twinkies and hot pockets daily, it's another thing to force them to adhere to a crunchy granola beige colored diet where they cant share the snacks their peers are eating or have a normal childhood or have fun. None of you were raised like that and if you were you know what im talking about.

this is btw is what they call the art of changing shoes in the jump. this is what every tankoid, every "leftist", every ml living in a basement in california or london or são paulo actually thinks, exactly this. undiluted, uncovered, right from the mind to the tongue. they are willing to tolerate destruction of ukraine backed with nuclear threats because they don't think of what else they'll have to tolerate under the same threats. they don't think it will come for them, under any guise, ever. they think they are better people than we are, simple as. the last screenshot is a classic attempt to feign cluelessness and imitate sympathy, something that other idiots has been trying to feed to us as sincere for years. but we've been seeing through it since day one and we will win. we will play you as best as we can or else happy turning into dust

and just for ukrainians, please don't be upset about this twitter moron. i'm only using him as a very good example because he forgot to pretend. we've fought and won against worse

Here's a legal PSA:

If you've committed a crime and a detective gathers everyone involved in the room, especially if he's not actually a detective and is instead a novelist, puzzle-setter, psychic, fake psychic, dog, chess grandmaster, etc. ...

YOU SHOULD NOT CONFESS.

Every year, hundreds of people are put away by non-traditional "detectives" who have either inserted themselves into the case or are working with the police in a dubiously legal capacity as advisor. In 99% of these cases, the murderer gives a full confession even though the evidence against them is circumstantial at best and often requires a long just-so story which can only guess at motive.

If this happens to you, stay quiet, do not attempt to defend yourself or talk your way out of it, only say "I want a lawyer".

Now if you find yourself being investigated by a boy genius, magician's assistant, anthropologist, classics scholar, or philosopher, it's likely that refusing to talk to the police (or investigator with no legal authority) is merely the end of the second act, and by the end of the third act they will have you dead to rights.

YOU SHOULD STILL NOT CONFESS.

Make them take it to court. Force the eccentric detective and his straight-laced police partner to take the stand and explain their methods to a jury of your peers. Have your lawyer look at the chain of custody on the evidence, especially if you believe it to have been handled by someone who has only bumbled into detective work through their natural charm and/or unique set of skills and outsider perspective that come in handy more often than they should.

Know your rights. Don't let eccentric detectives put you away.

Little paintings with lyrics from the song ‘Coyotes’ by Modest Mouse, which has a quite poignant music video featuring a live coyote riding a train.

When Padme had to call in sick, the Jedi were hoping the other senator from Naboo would be able to be an effective replacement spy. He was not.

Hey remember how Noir is an anti-fascist from 1933

i think generally the negative opinions on mcbride's response are arising from

a) it seems likely that she herself will be less affected by the rule than any trans staffers will

b) it is disappointing to see her acquiesce to it when the resolution mace introduced hasn't even been voted on, johnson just said the capitol bathrooms are only for the respective biological sex.

c) it is particularly disappointing/infuriating to see mcbride describe transphobic bathroom rules as a distraction from the real issues as a reason to decline to fight them, especially as she is likely going to be seen as the Trans Authority in the democratic party by virtue of being the first trans person in congress, and there are many people in the democratic party arguing that they should more generally pivot away from trans issues on the grounds that they are a distraction from the real issues

you know, i was just thinking today i need to have more patience with people on social media. cultivate more of that empathy that the posters i look up to possess. today, i suppose, is not that day.

look. these are stupid fucking reasons to be angry at sarah mcbride. if she thinks it's a distraction, i think you should listen to her. getting pissed at her (rather than at nancy mace or mike johnson) is insanely twitter-brained bullshit from people who are just looking for any reason to tear a democratic politician to pieces for not being sufficiently radical.

i'm glad there's a trans woman in congress. she has a hard job. i have no patience for people whose trans identity is not part and parcel of their role as a public figure, who are not under constant transmisogynistic attack from fascists as a result, trying to tell her how to do her job.

Okay but Republicans are the party of “all sexual assault allegations are lies”. They fought for Donald Trump and Brett Kavanaugh and Roy Moore and others I don’t care to remember, they will deny and gaslight and bully rather than admit that even one of them could be capable of sexual assault. If Matt Gaetz broke and ran from the Ethics report rather than trusting his buddies to back him up anyway, it had to have been bad.
