"Urgh, I used to be a hot man but now I'm a hot man with top of the line experimental cybernetics and I don't have to take the medication to prevent cyber rejection.
Wah, I hate this, for some reason."
Fucking dumbass cis people. It's their fault we haven't invented cybernetic genitals by now.
call to action, democratic civil engagement
Hey #pdx and #oregon peeps, there's a bill in the state legislature, HB 4126, that would legislate enhanced sentencing for anyone who covered their face in the commission of a crime--including protests that the police arbitrarily define as "riots".
This is a pretty open attempt to curtail the rights of masked #antifascist protesters, with the added "bonus" of making facial recognition and surveillance easier for the police.
PopMob has the deets over on Facebook, but might be worth calling your state senator and voicing your opposition.
There's this biphobic stereotype that coming out as bi is a stepping stone to coming out as gay. Which is of course not the case, but people who believe it often base that belief on having personally observed people around them first coming out as bi and then as gay. My counter to this is usually that I've also observed the reverse; people first coming out as gay, then later as bi/pan. That doesn't mean that coming out as gay is a "stepping stone" to coming out as bi or pan.
But I do think these dual phenomena, people coming out first as bi/pan, then as gay, and people coming out as gay, then as bi/pan, is interesting. So I want to muse a bit about why this happens.
"Anglo-Saxon"
But the issue isn't just that "Anglo-Saxon" is currently being used by white supremacists as if by chance. The historians who coined the term, inventing the idea of an "Anglo-Saxon people" that never existed, crafted a white nationalist narrative which was ready-made for use by nazis.
