The primary form of X-Men video game adaptations should be dating sims. Don’t @ me; you know in your soul that I speak Truth.

Somewhere, there’s a 10 year old who listened to @xplainthexmen.bsky.social their parents before it finished this week. That child will, in 15 years, write a zine about X-Plain the X-Men and then decide to do a podcast about the MCU that runs for over 12 years.
I've spent the last two months putting together this exhaustive analysis of the New York Times coverage of trans people. It covers 3,242 articles over 12 years. In 2022, the NYT shifted towards a hostile stance towards trans people in their framing. www.thedissident.news/exclusive-ho...

UConn led for under 52 seconds. 51 of those were after they scored first before Duke tied. The other 0.4 were the last 0.4 seconds of the game.

What’s next? A lord of the rings remake by someone who was once hurt by soccer ball who wants to make a version of the books where no one really breaks their toe kicking a helmet?
Again: trans people are a very small minority. If your *KNEEJERK* reaction when you encounter these rare & beautiful butterflies is *ANYTHING* other than “What can I do to make your life a little brighter?” you need to interrogate yourself. Impede the life of trans ppl & you’re in danger, from me. ❤️
Melissa Gira Grant@melissagiragrant.com · 8mo agoTo do this, anti-trans lawmakers in Kansas moved fast to change the law, overrode the governor’s veto, and pushed for the legal changes to go into effect nearly immediately. That kind of power—to void gender on official documents, to compel gender conformity—is terrifying and it will not stop here.
history teacher in 50 years: So in September, that’s when the president signed an executive order criminalizing anti-fascism and saying all resistance would be crushed student: oh so that’s when the whole country realized they were living under fascism teacher: haha what? oh no lol not at all. no.
Censorship makes you dumber: On a new Pentagon policy, and a broader campaign against speech the government dislikes.
To describe the current state of the world as a daily show of deepening horrors is a massive understatement. However, I read something today that I think more people should see and read. I hope she doesn't mind my me sharing it here. I'd rather be an X-Men by @gailsimone.bsky.social
If you reduce sex to reproductive capacity, you are both wrong and a douchebag.
There is something darkly funny about Ohio going from being the home of the Underground Railroad to falling all over itself to join the neoconfederacy. Anyway I’m glad I never have to live there again. Sorry to everyone that has to.
Good morning to everyone except those preemptively closing gender clinics to try to abide by a clearly unconstitutional and discriminatory executive order
Am I saying that the Cass Review is malicious research misconduct in service of malignant tranapgobia and that everyone involved in its creation should be cast out of medical and research circles forever because they're fundamentally untrustworthy? Yes. Yes, I am.
As infuriating as the conservative SCOTUS is, never forget that America’s genocide against its trans population is the child of “moderate” liberal outlets like the Atlantic and the New York Times, and especially Jesse Singal and Katie Herzog, who made healthy careers out of polishing bigotry.
shoutout to kirkland brand “oat drink” which is like $10 for 6 liters and delicious
Walking around Trader Joe’s wondering why so many people were farting only to get home and realize it was the bag of broccoli in my cart
A LOT of people do not want to hear it but in the United States at least, food has never been safer to eat, not to mention tastier
Courtney Milan@courtneymilan.com · last yr.We are living in one of the few times in human history where you can buy a loaf of bread and if it says it’s made with wheat flour and salt and yeast and water and nothing else, it’s probably made from just those ingredients, and some people want to END this.
the thing I hate most about that rfk quote is that autistic lives have value and worth and beauty and dignity whether they are able to do the things other people do or not. no one is defined by ability or lack thereof and to frame divergence as lack is monster stuff, utterly godless
“This man is not our enemy” Rewatching Princess Mononoke and this is honestly the best I can aspire to.
Are you ancient gods and have I come at last to the realm of the spirit of the forest?

"dei medal" you might as well just put "n*gger medal" because that's what they mean to say
Brandon Friedman@brandonfriedman.bsky.social · 2y agoThis is blood-boiling. Charles Rogers was awarded the Medal of Honor in Vietnam after being wounded three times leading the defense of a position. Google his name and the entry below comes up. When you click, you'll see the page has been deleted and the URL changed to include "DEI medal."
