I'm gonna keep posting this until one of you fucking boosts it

Tired: "men are too emotional to be leaders." *replicates the sexist assumption that unemotionality is always a superior trait and is inherently associated with dominance/authority.*

Wired: "Men aren't emotional enough to be leaders." *Hot take. Asserts the value of traits devalued by patriarchy. Radically re-envisions what leadership ought to look like. Doesn't throw men who experience positive emotions intensely under the bus for being insufficiently "in-control" (read: masculine).*

trans folk are amazing 💖

Queer update: Reliably queer today.

Today's gender is grateful and gay.

it’s fucked up that those of us who participate in a culture of acceptance (lbgt, neurodivergence, etc.) find that the mainsteam is increasingly alien the more we, just accept each other

information the cop hears that helps you is inadmissible in court -- it's hearsay. but negative testimony by cops is absolutely admissible! and if you have a conversation with a cop, and later they lie / misremember what you said, then it's your word against theirs in court. people have been convicted on little-to-nothing but the testimony of a cop claiming you told them something incriminating.

It's incredibly sad when I look up in the winter while walking through New York City where greenery is a scarce and precious resource and see tree after tree on the side of the street that must be 20-30 years old and they're COVERED in mistletoe.

Those trees, which could have lived for decades longer, are being killed. Why? Because Christians went and imported a deadly plant from Europe that has no use other than as a Christmas ornament to the Americas.

Don't make the problem worse.

This isn't a joke. Mistletoe is an invasive and PARASITIC PLANT that, once it infects a tree, will eventually kill it. Worse, it is extremely contagious and the plant cannot be removed. The only way to remove the parasite from an infected tree is to cut the limb off that the mistletoe has infected.

Most trees need to be cut down and they need to be cut down BEFORE they spread their infection to healthy trees.

releasing one of those "there's hair down there??" explaining/demystifying puberty for kids books but there's an entire section on what you can do if the puberty you're getting isnt the one you want

it's entirely unobtrusive from the outside, though, so you can sneak it past parents (or they might accidentally give it to their kids anyway)

this is the perfect place and time for my specific combination of degrees. by the power of cognitive science and queer studies i will make all the robots gay

Organised religion has corrupted one of the purest, most powerful and sustaining things in the human condition. It has imposed a middle management, not only in our politics and in our finances, but in our spirituality as well.

one thing i saw recently was "when you vote, you're not picking your character, you're picking your opponent"

i really don't like biden, etc, but as a white socialist, i will vote for him over trump if need be, and i will vote for president no matter what. whoever the dem party fields will not kill as many people as trump will, and that's worth voting for, even if i have to resort to lesser of two evils voting

The Matrix (1999) taught us a valuable lesson. If someone deadnames you, then you should hit them with a train

posters with theoretical situations about what the abolition of police would look like

ain't it great that we all have incredibly similar memories of how the school system failed our particular neurotype in horrible, stressful, anxiety-inducing ways
