Y'all understand that it is a patient's right to refuse treatment, yes? You understand that this extends to psychiatric treatment? That there is something deeply troubling about immediately dismissing a patient exercising their right to refusal as Symptoms™? It's very important to me that you understand this.

and you know what? i am REALLY sick of these ads that are openly mocking people for being concerned about the products they’re selling.

Amazon’s super bowl ad where the Alexa mocks Chris Hemsworth for being worried about giving spy software control over his entire life. Waymo’s ad with the intro “the robots are coming!” mocking people who are rightfully extremely concerned about sharing the road with, or riding in, self-driving cars.

i don’t know, it’s just genuinely insane to me. “Oh, you have legitimate concerns about our shitty product? sounds like you’re just lame!!!” like what kind of “quiet part out loud” marketing is that?

You're not really supposed to say it this way, because its considered crass, but here in the US children are culturally and legally considered essentially the property of their parents.

Note that its considered more crass to point this out than it is to treat children as property in the first place.

not sure how to explain this properly, but has anyone noticed some conservatives have a guilty conscience they're very clearly frustrated by? like, they'll complain about "performative empathy" or whatever in a way that's almost evident of envy.

zero patience for "irreversible damage" rhetoric because like... parents are allowed to do all kinds of other irreversible body modification to their kids and nobody gives a fuck. you can pierce your kid's ears, you can sign them up for a sport that will injure them for life, you can provide or withhold medical care like vaccines according to whatever whims you like. i've mentioned this before but my mom forced me to get laser hair removal done on my legs when i was a teenager because my body wasn't mine, the way i chose to upkeep it was a reflection on her. "irreversible damage" is very much part and parcel of the broader belief that parents own their children's bodies.

This Re: Societal dismissal of the threat covid presents to everyone. In less than five years, long covid has become the most common chronic illness in children, surpassing asthma. Somehow HRT is "irreversible damage" but giving millions of kids a poorly understood chronic illness is just "back to normal"

(P.S. Wear a respirator. Don't catch or spread covid.)

it does suck that the government defunded PBS but it's also so fucking funny that now that they don't take uncle sam's slavery dollars they're running videos like "How america's foundation was built on genocide"

no more being polite about it fuck the USA

caldwell tanner is so clearly made for game changer its crazy that they've only had him on the show for art. my man is out here winking at the camera, cheating in games for points, slamming himself on the floor for prompts, doing little bits with the cast in the phone booth.......I love his art but let my boy be on a podium for realsies😭🙏
