Me: Okay, guys, do you want McD's (drivethrough) or pizza (delivery) for dinner?

Thing1: I'd rather have McD's but pizza is okay.

Thing2: I'd rather have pizza but McD's is okay.

Me: ...so your opinions average together to "no opinion"

Thing2: Pretty much

Thing1: Did you expect anything different?

Me: I'm ordering pizza so I don’t have to put on pants.

Thing1 (2013) is a striking apartment building popularly called the "Lego house" in Örnsköldsvik, Sweden. It has won several awards as Sweden's ugliest building.

The Cat in the Hat 2003 Movie Review

[moregraceful]

can we PLEASEEEEE talk about nico sturm's white boy swag PLEASE. like what was that. why were the sharks so intensely hiding his white boy swag. "oh we got him for his face offs" WHAT ABOUT HIS WHITE BOY SWAG. imagine if the sharks had not made a holiday music video we would not have never known about nico sturm's insane white boy swag. ik you all are consumed with thing1 and thing2 and also thing3 and thing4 but what was going on with nico sturm in that video, we need to discuss. why was he the only one giving it's big and i know what to do with it energy. ON THE SHARKS?? HELLO

ALSO. cody ceci can't rap nor should he ever again get his ass off the mic but he DID sound like an npr show host. he has the smooth tenor of a man telling me on all songs considered that this all-female octogenarian shoegaze quartet is going to be playing at hardly strictly bluegrass this year. or like a guy who was an overnight host for a classical music station. he's telling me he's got gershwin to accompany me through the cold winter night. he's signing off with an instrumental version of "st. james infirmary" at 6am. he calls his listeners his "lovers" and gets away with it bc the only people who listen to overnight classic music stations are lonely old men and particularly unwell college students. ohhhh cody ceci you're wasted as a dman you should be romancing old men

Hey, sending this off anon so you can answer privately if you wish. I'm really confused about the difference between being anti-Zionist and pro-Palestine. I've been using both interchangeably for myself, but apparently that's incorrect? I don't know who else to ask.

So... I haven't had anon on in like 12 years, I don't do private answers, and I don't talk about I/P online.

But let's talk about a different issue instead. Let's talk about reproductive rights instead, as a means of just talking about why being anti-Thing1 doesn't mean you're pro-Thing2.

(I swear to fuck if anyone comes onto this post and tries to say I made some sort of direct weird parallel between Israel and either of the examples below to try to 'prove' something about me or drag me into stuff I have said I don't talk about, I will yeet them into the fucking sun. The purpose of these examples is solely to use easily-understood references to explain how you can be anti-Thing1 without being pro-Thing2.)

If someone is anti-abortion, that doesn't mean they're pro-parenting or pro-baby. It's about where their focus is, right? Lots of people are just like 'well, we don't think abortions should exist. There should be no abortions.' Well, great. But what's your plan for the people who are pregnant and don't want to be? They're not going to stop existing just because you think abortions shouldn't exist.

But a lot of people who are anti-abortion don't have plans for that. All they have is a firm belief that abortions shouldn't exist. No one should need them, no one should want them, no one has a right to them. All other concerns go by the wayside.

Or the people who live around me who want homeless people off the streets, but have no plan for how to get people off the streets. They just say 'well, there shouldn't be any homeless people on the streets of Portland,' but their answer is fines and jail time. (This is a real thing happening where I live, btw. Fines for daytime camping, as if that's going to help people get off the streets. Now they have a fine they also can't pay with all of the money they don't have.) These people have no plans for affordable housing, they feel like it's perfectly acceptable to define someone as 'turning down' shelter even if that shelter requires you to be inside by 9 PM and the unhoused person doesn't don't get out of work until 11 PM. Their focus isn't on the positive thing -- people obtaining housing security -- it's on the thing they think shouldn't be happening: unhoused people where they have to see them/be inconvenienced by them.

You can be anti-abortion without being even remotely pro-parent or pro-baby. You can be anti-homelessness without being pro-housing security. It's all about what your actual focus is.

In this case, the question you have to ask yourself is: is it more important to me that to be anti-Zionist or to be pro-Palestine? I can't answer that question for you, because, like I said, I don't talk about I/P at all online, and -- more importantly -- it's going to completely depend on how you, personally, define Zionism, let alone anti-Zionism, and how you, personally, define being pro-Palestine.

You're gonna have to wrestle that one out on your own.

Thing1 and Thing2

Thing1: Okay, so-- Me: This is not going to end well. Thing1: The next time we use the sugar, there might be some… extra protein. Me: …what did you spill in the sugar? Thing1: I didn't put anything in there! We were just running low so I poured some more in from the bag in the pantry and I guess some ants had gotten into that. Me: ::facepalms:: Thing1: I picked out as many as I could! I just don't know if I got them all. Me: They were all dead? Thing1: Yeah. Me: …please just put sugar on the grocery list.

you: (thing1) isn't inherently (thing2), to say (thing1) is always (thing2) is generalizing

people online: WOOOOW she thinks (thing1) is NEVER (thing2)!! that's hypocritical!! >:/

i swear, you could say "i think some of you should get better at reading comprehension. some of your comprehension is piss poor" and they'd yell, screaming "SOPHIE THINKS "S*SMEDS" PISS ON THE POOR!!!"

LOL! That does seem to be how their minds work.

It all really feels like a red herring.

There was a larger point in that original post about how anti-endos engage in practices that border on indoctrination.

They bully any systems without trauma while promising love and acceptance to any that say they're traumagenic.

If a system has a marginalized identity, anti-endos will weaponize that against them as part of their indoctrination process. Or just otherwise use that systems' identity to dismiss their opinion of how their system formed.

I think it's really interesting how they pick on that one point too in the same line where I mentioned that neurodivergences aren't inherently traumatic. Even though I'm confident many of these same systems believes those are inherently traumatic too.

Anyway, it's not a bad strategy if your goal is to distract from the main point.

I'm not going to engage any further their red herrings. I trust most people know what I meant, and people misinterpreting me aren't worth my time or attention.

And my original point still stands without that example, even if I were just stating that autism isn't inherently traumatic, and that experiencing ableism isn't inherently traumatic.

Whatever examples I use, the point remains exactly the same. That sysmeds have created an environment of dismissing the rights of marginalized groups to define their own experiences.

war has no dignity any more . which is not to say that it has ever been a "good" thing1, but just to observe that the transition from combat requiring the physical and mental strength to actually mortally wound another person while being close enough to look into their eyes, to modern warfare where turning an entire village or city of people into a fine red mist is as easy as pushing a button, well, it's extremely undignified . revoltingly undignified and, you know, functionally meaningless .

1feeling like it is a necessity to add a morality-related disclaimer onto my statements despite my complex opinion about morality + the "goodness" of war not being remotely close to the subject i'm talking about .
