FYI the HUGE number of AI slop at GamesCom's opening night live is not a sign that the industry has normalized AI. It's a ploy to make you believe that. These games are all by the same 3 or 4 publishers. This is a concerted effort to make consumers accept AI.
i think this post highlights something well: the majority of cis people believe in sexed souls

So, to be clear, most cis people don't actually think that gender affirming care works.

This is made evident in a lot of different ways.
One of those ways is how when cis people talk about someone's transition, they talk about it as if it happened in a day. Like, when a trans person talks about their transition, they usually say "I started transitioning in [date]". Where as the cis person will say "X transitioned in [date]".
They think transition is surgery. It's a surgery. They think trans people go under, get bottom surgery, breast implants and ffs all in one go and wake up all transitioned.
They think it's possible to change the shape of your body, but not its function. It's all superficial, just changing your appearance. You might even look like the opposite gender, but nothing meaningful actually changed. You have breasts now? That doesn't mean you can ever produce milk. And if you do something so you can? That milk would probably be harmful to a baby.
That's why you'll never be a woman.
As if we don't know that TWERFs stick to the fact that trans women don't have utureses as the ultimate undeniable proof that we are not actually women. Do you think if medical technology ever changes so that we can get uteri grown from stem cells, suddenly they'll accepted that we are now women?

And you might be thinking, if cis people don't really believe medical transition works, why are conservatives constantly talking about hormones?
They think it does *something*, but not that that something is equivalent to an endogenous puberty.
Like, they'll interfere with your development and make you sterile. They definitely affect you in some negative ways, but they will never produce meaningful results. After all, boys and girls are genetically different.
I'm sure they think someone assigned male at birth taking estrogen is going to get larger breasts. But they don't think those breasts are the same as a cis girl's breasts.

Our feature artist/tutorial today is this amazing PHONEME CHART by theendisnearus on deviantart (deviantart.com/theendisnearus). Great for ANIMATION, or if you draw COMICS, drawing your characters mouths in the shape of the LAST syllable in you SPEECH BUBBLE often works very well!
One thing I wish people would realize is just how central JK Rowling is to the entire anti-trans ecosystem. Looking at a network node analysis of the top 200 anti-trans X accounts, she is the most central figure spanning both sides of the Atlantic from Republicans to Labour.
This is 100% why people who've been on X for years now get so weirdly bummed out by Bluesky or any other site. It isn't that bsky is a 'bubble', it's that being a shithead in the replies gets you an immediate nuclear-block, rather than immediately rewarded with Skinner-box treats
