as the saying goes: one man's trash is another man's gender

its important to realize how internalized racism informs our actions and thoughts. sometimes we justify certain things in a way that isnt racist on its own, but the underlying causes are still rooted on racism

I'm right and I'm gonna say it.

Rigid expression of gender as either 100% feminine or 100% masculine is un-fucking-natural.

Who wants to co-found a professional org for trans people in tech?

This is not a joke by the way, I want to do this.

...save links to resources. Share them when you can. We can't rely on search engines to make knowledge readily available any more, so do what you can to help people find what they need.

like legit this would solve p much all communication issues where love is concerned. like, i don't distinguish readily between philia and eros just fundamentally Makes Sense as a statement

and also "i'm in philia with them" is such a cute way of saying "we're friends"

we really should normalise referring to the types of love instead of the nebulous overarching whatsit in my imo

well that was....odd

stumbled into an argument about romanisation of words & whether it was, like, okay to do? 'cept, they. didn't actually talking about romanisation, just. all latin alphabet w accents & such. n im so confus? like?? if u need help reading in just the latin alphabet then why are you arguing about whether romanisation is okay You Clearly Need It in order to read things that aren't natively in latin scripts

So the secret to not waking up tired is to sleep early! Who would have thought?! Now that's a life hack I'll remember!

i am unapologetically weird. i don’t give a rat’s ass what you think about my hobbies or my likes. excuse me for having a fucking personality just because it doesn’t line up with what you think is acceptable

What did you do over the last 7 years?

We don't know, there was a lot of science fiction and Shitposting though.

This sign at the union that hosts our DSA meetings has the right idea

something that's been on my mind lately: white folks spend So Much time and money killing plants just because they aren't the one kind of plant they want growing there. like... nature is so abundant, if we just stopped fucking poisoning and chopping things all day long there would be plants everywhere in like 3 months. many of those would be edible. we spend so much energy just stopping nature from doing its thing.

(this is not a metaphor but it could be. what are you weedwhacking in your soul?)

Imagine being as gay as this bitch *gestures to myself*

the word "lazy", mh, abuse (thread) 

The word "lazy" is a weapon of manipulation. It's a tool used to illegitimize the issues of people that can't handle things as easily as "normal" people deem standard.

Miss me with the technical definition, "someone who's perfectly able and open to do something necessary, but just doesn't feel like it." It's not the subject of the discussion, and bringing it up proves you have no interest in the actual point.

Moving right along.
