I so fucking hate the idea of knowing you were "gender" since you were born because thats complete bullshit gender is what people make it. People are allowed to like and dislike certai. things, and while their inate sex often has an impact, it does not always (see. every trans person ever).

Most trans people are also allowed to have experienced the DIFFERENT socialisation of the gender they grew up as (I say moat, because the majority of trans people transition at/after 18) while still being the gender they present as. That does not take away from their experiences as the gender they were percieved to be, and their experiences of their current gender.

trans people will literally go “i have a complicated relationship with my history with gender and sometimes see it as a gender i ‘used to be’ and i don’t really look like a cis person of either gender and i don’t think i can fit it into simple categories” and everyone will spontaneously combust

The people in the top three spots on Forbes' billionaire list—Elon Musk, Jeff Bezos, and Mark Zuckerberg—will have prime seats at President-elect Trump's inauguration next week. NBC News, citing "an official involved with the planning of the event," reports that the three tech billionaires will be sitting together on the platform with other high-profile guests, including Trump's Cabinet nominees. Bezos and Zuckerberg's companies, Amazon and Meta, have each donated $1 million to the inauguration, while Musk spent more than $250 million to help Trump win the election, reports Reuters.

"You think you're informed just because you read a bunch of grainy PDFs?"

Yeah man. Reading scholarly works on a topic informs you on that topic. That's how this works.

i forsee a repeat of 2016 where nazis will start insisting they are actually doing the "roman salute" when you claim (correctly) that they're doing a nazi salute

don't even entertain the idea

don't go "well you might THINK you're doing that but ACTUALLY"

just say outright "do you think i'm fucking stupid? you're doing a nazi salute and you are a nazi"

"Stolas isn't wrong for choosing his own happiness for once after years of abuse and depression"

and

"Octavia isn't wrong for feeling betrayed by her father and fearing she's been only an obligation to him"

are two concepts that can and should coexist.

The most realistic part of Portal is when the only man Chell interacts with calls her bossy when she literally doesn't speak

Not to be like “we live in a society” but I think a lot of people’s mental health would be significantly less fucked if they didn’t have to function in a system that forces them to think about their value as a human being as based on how productive they are/how much money people can make off them
