tbh I think we should all get a lot more cool about people having done a little porn

Lol aint no way someones skeet on here is that black voters were never in a uneasy coalition with segregationists to get the Civil Rights Act passed and eventually the VRA
People do realize that estrogen makes you grow breasts, right? I am fucking *begging* people to think for *five fucking seconds* about the incredibly obvious consequences of putting a 16 year old with breasts in a sports league consisting entirely of 16 year old boys.
this is, ofc, exactly why trans women and girls deserve a place in womens and girls sports. we are subjected to all the same sexual harassment and abuse cis women and girls are—oftentimes *before* we ever come out—and deserve to play sports with our peers in an environment safe from it
no pressure, peer. do what you want, but do it for yourself and no one else.

short answer no, but my advice to anyone is get a laser printer; the speed is nice but you'll mainly love never buying ink again, and maybe not even toner if you only print things occasionally, the cartridges last for thousands of print jobs.
have they invented a consumer printer that doesn't suck yet
the Baileys but they're Haitian trans women who live in Springfield, Ohio
I do not have policy preferences beyond “Republicans delenda est” anymore. I will resume caring about policy specifics when the crisis caused by the existence of the Republican Party abates.
This is going to make me sound old and maybe a little nostalgic but it’s really striking how in the Trump era, no one even pretends to debate about policy anymore.
i like how i made a grand total of three replies when my account was new and then forgot this place existed until the TikTok ban the vibes must have been off back then
No one on this site has been able to give me a coherent answer why my rights as an undocumented immigrant are worth throwing overboard for trans rights. I thought we were all in this together, but talking to a lot of people on this site has been like talking to someone holding a gun to their head.
you see the challenge implicit in this comic, right? what if we could be good at writing software rather than bad? perhaps, and I know 99% of all engineers will be mad at me for this, we could write proofs? proofs are expensive? if only there was a technology that made proving things cheap
People like to point at the xkcd comic with the block tower held up by a tiny project maintained by one guy but I actually think this one explains far more about the state of digital infrastructure
ken paxton asked texas for a list of everyone who changed the sex on their driver's license. james talarico said sports should be "safe and fair." the best thing for trans rights this year is beating paxton
Saw somebody claiming that Talarico isn't lying like Obama did on marriage equality because sports participation is rolling back rights, and just, does everyone have amnesia and forgot that Texas forced Mack Beggs to wrestle girls even though he was on testosterone?
"there's no point trying for a Dem governor when the GOP will likely have a veto-proof majority in the legislature" and "there's no point trying for more Dem legislators under a Republican governor" are about equally asinine imo Trying and failing > giving up ahead of time That's why we're alive
And who will maintain those majorities regardless of who wins the governors race? Nothing substantive changes for trans people with a dem governor.
who the heck decided to call it "fatal wet-bulb thermometer reading" and not "psychro killer"

Approximating the Lorenz attractor with a chaotic leaky water wheel. The orange dot is the centre of mass of the water. It traces (a projection of) the familiar attractor as the wheel spins seemingly randomly left and right.
this is just true a tiny minority of extreme densely connected nodes direct both the attention and the reactions of the majority of the social network
I swear maybe five to ten people here on bsky set the entire discourse in motion perpetually, and that doesn't feel like an exaggeration
lmao what the hell, can't believe David Sacks made an S-tier tweet
Anything i learn about a Dem nominee after they won their primary but before the general election is against my will The time for figuring shit out about the candidates and fighting about it is during the primary. After that, their job is to win over the marks, and what they say isn't for my ears.
are my fellow elder emos in a headspace to receive information that will hurt them welcome to the black parade released 20yr ago today
yeah so I viscerally hate a lot of the people being referred to in this post for reasons that are specifically related to me being trans. and also if you're cisgender don't fucking say this shit. just fucking don't.
sprinkling in a few "thankfully they wont 😇"s doesn't remove the sentiment between the lines iunno. i don't think he's probably bigoted judging by previous posts. this isn't meant as a character indictment as much as a "hey i don't like this"
