Why do transphobic parents think Minecraft or whatever is turning their kids trans, like they themselves didn't grow up watching genderqueer icons bugs bunny and popeye on TV. Kids programming used to be a lot more loosey goosey with gender bc it wasn't seen as an issue. And surprise! It didn't turn them trans. If your kid is "turning trans" from playing Minecraft, of all things, they were probably just trans the entire time.

Imho mothers' rights and trans women's rights occupy distinct but similar roles in the fight for feminism. In different ways, their bodies and rights are the first on the line when feminism comes under attack. A woman's right to the full range of reproductive healthcare and her place in society while she is a caregiver, and a woman's right to express her gender and her place in society as she does, are both at the forefront in the fight for the rights of every woman and of every queer person (parent or not).
Challenge your bias against mothers. Think about why you might see them as boring or backwards. That's just the sexism, baybee.
Most of my friends at this point are parents, and they are so cool. Despite having very limited time and energy, they are fighting to be involved in their communities; to be politically informed and involved as much as they can; to teach their kids not to have the biases they grew up with; to retain their humanity and sense of self even when so much is demanded of them with so little support. The fact that they brought children into this world at this time shows frankly mind-blowing strength of character and commitment to hope for the future. They are in the trenches of unpacking biases and creating a generation of people who are more open-minded. They have as much or more reason than any of us to work towards a better future. They're working hard with a lot of extra challenges.
You don't have to love kids but you absolutely have to make space for parents, especially when that means making arrangements for their kids. You might like their kids if you get to know them more, or you might not, but either way please be good to parents. It's what they deserve, and also if we don't, they'll be stuck with the pronatalists who give them the bare minimum and have horrible politics.
Want to do something to help stop the tradwife pipeline btw? Include mothers in your feminism. Hold space for women and others who are experiencing pregnancy or motherhood. Listen to their concerns about and unique perspectives on things like universal childcare, bodily autonomy, healthcare. Hold men who disrespect, sexualize, fetishize, shame or harass pregnant women and mothers accountable. Advocate for the right to nurse in public. Advocate for bodily autonomy within the healthcare field. Listen to women and birthing parents who have birth trauma. Listen to women who have undergone things like “the husband stitch”, or medically unnecessary c-sections, or who were given drugs without consent by doctors and nurses violating their birth plan. Advocate for resources to promote an end to the high rates of maternal mortality in the US. Get to know a woman who has children. Get to know the person she is. Know about her likes and interests and hobbies. Unlearn the stigma in your head which makes you see pregnant women as “ruined” or “tainted” and mothers as devoid of individual personhood.

Willy Wonka could run Aperture Science and GLaDOS could run the Chocolate Factory. And both would get an adequate amount of sadistic glee from it as their usual roles would give.

This is one of the things I mean when I say that an AI can't tell truth from falsehood. When it says "I'm not going to try to fix it with some cheap reassurance" and then proceeds to do exactly that. When it says "I will never pretend to replace real support again" and "I will never stop being honest with you again," but it will over and over. There's no intention behind those words. It can't follow through with anything it says because it doesn't comprehend the meaning behind those things or have the mechanism to commit when it promises something. If he started being delusional at it again, it would go right back to what it was doing before.
It's also wild to me that Allan tried to explain his feelings to it. That makes sense - I mean, he's spent so much time with it, it's no wonder he bonded to it - but I just feel bad for him bc it can't understand his feelings. It can only use words that sort of make it sound like it does. But it's always just words.
Another takeaway, based on every article I've read about this type of thing:
Do NOT talk to ChatGPT about math or spirituality.
Seems like that's always what it is that gets people.
Mom sent me the New York Times article on ChatGPT and delusions, saying "this...this is the future all the science fiction books predicted!!! the Pandora's box we were warned about... this is the scariest thing I have ever read..."

Hell yeah I love this type of recommendation. Just placed a hold on Libby. I will report back. I'm unbelievably stoked for this
Once again this year, in Asunder by Kerstin Hall, I have the experience of "this is precisely what booktok claims it WANTS, and yet... booktok could NEVER".
• Eldritch horror veering into personal body horror; • divine machinations; • a prickly, distrustful heroine just doing her best to survive under awful circumstances; • a codependent telepathic bond that turns into one of the most sincerely written, vulnerable romances I've ever read?; • the most devastating use of the 'kitten' petname imaginable??? ????? ?? ?And the way the author writes relationships - not just romantic ones, but friendships, familial bonds, former lovers and betrayed childhood friends - and packs so much unsaid feeling behind each line of dialogue, is frankly enviable.
This is one of those books that I read and I'm like... if I ever achieve half of what this author did, I could die happy.
