Trans guy anon: I'm so past tired of trans guys on tumblr derailing discussions about feminism and male privilege. If you don't pass, you're obviously still dealing with transphobia and misogyny. If you do pass, you have conditional male privilege and you're a misogynist for pretending you don't. I'm sorry that some of you guys out there struggle with being seen as indistinguishable from cis guys, but instead of derailing every single discussion about male privilege, why don't you just learn to accept that you now have some responsibility to making the women around you comfortable? You don't even have to out yourself, just don't go off like an MRA about how you think misandry is real. And for those of you who don't pass, read a room and realize certain discussions aren't about you.
Sorry if that's mean, but I'm just done playing these stupid games and dancing around the point that so many of these discussions get derailed because we're focused on identity-first language instead of material reality. Trans guys who pass have male privilege (acknowledging that doesn't detract from the fact that if you're outed, you will be dealing with transphobia), trans guys who don't pass deal with transphobia and misogyny; and no, transmisandry isn't a real thing.

Something about this post broke something in me
What hits harder?
When the pious and pure begin to sin?
Or when the irreverent begin to pray?
as a Regular Guy who happens to read ~300 books a year i feel the particular responsibility to refuse the bookfluencer industrial complex and remind people that identity as a reader is based solely on whether or not you happen to enjoy pleasure reading, not achieving some numerical goal or having the hottest take
I'm not certain what a "mature adult" necessarily is, but I think it at least part of it involves...
Being confident that your understanding of your world is complete enough to make big life choices
That you understand "enough" of the world, see the general shape of it, and can resolve your own role in it.
A sense of internal stability. Of purpose. Of what one can, must, and/or will accomplish or at least attempt.
When the sense of "I need to know more and learn more before I can make such big choices" finally fades, or breaks against some powerful compulsion to act, to strive for a great, deep purpose.
Is it just me, or does that not seem to be happening for a whole lot of people? Did it actually used to happen?
y’all need to read this book of poetry by long dead Buddhist nuns
The coffins were laid down, opened, arranged in a line on the icy earth. The crowd made room for the press respectfully. It knew that without the journalists and photographers the massacre would be erased and the dead would truly die. So the bodies were offered to them, in hope and anger. A banquet of death. Mourning relatives who had backed away were asked to return into frame. Their sorrow was to be archived. In the years to come, when the war became a way of life, there would be books and films and photo exhibitions curated around the theme of Kashmir's grief and loss.

I need more news like this
You have to admit it's funny
Generative AI is not capable of thinking or panicking.
GENERATIVE AI IS NOT CAPABLE OF THINKING OR PANICKING.
This chatbot received negative feedback after it wrongly predicted, based on its training data, the correct action to take.
It did what chatbots do when they get negative feedback, which is to generate a response (derived from lots of real human apologies) that will satisfy the user.
There are semantics involved in how we use the word "think." We say computers are "thinking" all the time when no computer has ever had a "thought" in any way that resembles a human mind—a thing that remains more or less of a black box, philosophically, that we can affect and observe but whose fundamental workings are deeply unknown.
But there are no semantics involved in "panic." "Panic" is an emotional state. The AI didn't "panic," it followed the same decision-making process it always uses and got the answer wrong. It wasn't stressed out. It wasn't surprised. That's all absurd.
It's lying—with the sole caveat that it isn't even capable of knowing that it's lying, because it is just a fancy, fancy chatbot.
But the people building and selling them and convincing people to entrust them with the power to destroy huge amounts of real human work?
Those people are ABSOLUTELY lying.
