The US government's looming shutdown hinges on anti-trans measures after Donald Trump refused to speak to Democrats unless they were passed.
A fallen aristocrat and a fortune-telling slave must both forge new lives from the ashes left behind by the collapse of a nation at war. But not everything in their pasts managed to burn⊠Uneven Keel is a mature slow-paced fantasy drama; exploring the complicated intersections between queer romance, friendship, mental illness, personal identity, class, and power. Help support the printing of the first volume on Kickstarter!
Not everything in the past managed to burn...

I don't post a lot anymore, but I made a Patreon for my Webcomic (that you can also read on one of its Other Mirrors), so that I can have Money to buy Food and pay Rent.
I vote we stop calling it inflation at all. Seize the language. It's price gouging, not inflation. Inflation is a nebulous concept that invokes feeling of being too complex for the layman, a struggle as old as economy itself against a beast no one has ever truly slain.
Price gouging is the truth of it. And it makes it very clear who is to blame, and what must be done to end it.
Can confirm this works wonders. Australia is in a cost of living crisis rn and the two major supermarkets are a big part of it, as they pretty much have a duopoly on not just the grocery shopping market, but a bunch of others considered to be essential (things like fuel). They are trying to blame their price rises on inflation, but the media recently started reporting it as price gouging (which it is), and it got the average person pretty worked up, better than blaming inflation did.
It's price gouging, not inflation.
#and it's punitive #one of the reasons they fired this up was because people were TALKING about raising the minimum wage #and the sudden jump in prices let them say âsee? we told you this would happen if you raised wages!â #even though wages only got raised in a couple of places
everyone post their fantrolls
if you dont have one make one idc if its canon compliant i just wanna see it
pretty cool, huh?
I can't keep having the same conversations about love languages, mbti, iq, bmi, "brain fully formed at 25" and shit over and over again...
these things exist on a spectrum from untrue to straightforwardly racist btw. so if we could retire them forever that'd be nice.
âLove Languagesâ are just common couples therapy techniques mangled and repackaged by an unqualified homophobe. Relationships generally need all 5 love languages to be fulfilled, which is to say, everybody needs to communicate with, spend time with, and do things for their partners, and thatâs got nothing to do with any special way you communicate affection.
MBTI has been proven completely ineffective at predicting anyoneâs success at a particular job, and half the people who take it twice will get different results. Reputable psychologists do not recognize it, and the company that owns the rights to it uses it to scam people. People donât adhere to strict binaries in basically anything. Very few people are going to be exclusively introverted or extroverted. Itâs just astrology repackaged as pseudoscience. Shockingly enough, you canât boil the complexity of the human experience down to a dozen Types of Guy.
The concept of IQ is flawed from the startâ âintelligenceâ is an abstract concept that encompasses many different skills, from social intelligence to emotional intelligence to the very narrow kind of problem solving intelligence IQ tests generally measure for. It cannot predict how fast you learn, how much you know, or how logical and well read you are. It mostly measures how good you are at solving puzzles. Coincidentally, itâs also a pretty good predictor of income and education level, take a guess why. Most peopleâs IQ will change throughout their lives, because itâs inconsistent bullshit weâve only held onto this long because weâre still kinda hoping we can breed the ubermensch. IQ tests and the way they attempt to categorize people are explicitly eugenicist and racist.
BMI was developed by a man known as the grandfather of eugenics, who first of all was a mathematician, not a doctor, and second never intended the formula to be used to categorize individuals. Itâs intended to give a rough estimate of obesity in populations, and itâs not even good at that. It hangs around because of fatphobia and insurance companies who want it as an excuse to charge fat people more.
The study which determined peopleâs prefrontal cortex was still developing at 25⊠stopped measuring at 25. Evidence suggests your brain probably never stops developing. Stop infantilizing grown adults. This is a branch off from the larger mess of misinformation surrounding fMRIs.
If you havenât put together what all these things have in common yet, hereâs the moral of the story: STOP TRYING TO CATEGORIZE PEOPLE. STOP TRYING TO PUT PEOPLE IN A GODDAMN BIOLOGICAL HIERARCHY. EUGENICS IS BAD, AND WILL ALWAYS BE BAD, NO MATTER WHOâS DOING IT.
This is Sarah Grimké.
She was born to a rich plantation family in the American South during the time of slavery. She owned a slave, Hetty, a girl her parents gave her when she was a child. She was absolutely the sort of person whose racism you could justify as being âof her timeâ and âjust the way she was raisedâ.
And she cited the injustices she saw growing up on the plantation as the motivation for her becoming an abolitionist as an adult.
When she was a kid, she tried to give bible lessons to the slaves on her Dadâs plantation, and taught her own slave to read and write. As an adult, she and her sister campaigned for the end of slavery. When she found out that one of her brothers had raped one of his own slaves and gotten her pregnant three times, she welcomed her nephews into the family and paid for education for the two that wanted it.
This was a woman who was raised in a culture of slavery, looked around her as a child and said âhey, wait a minute, weâre all assholes!â and spent the rest of her life trying to put things right.
It absolutely was a choice.
This is something Iâve been forced to learn in the past two years. The world around me is turning into something I was raised to believe could only happen in history books, or maybe in other parts of the world that sort of belonged in history books.
The more I see this happeningâand the more I learn about the past and how hard people did fight to stop Hitler from initially rising to power, or to point out the humanity of slavesâthe more apparent it becomes that we have always had these choices, and theyâve always been the same.
And weâre always going to have genuinely appealing opportunities to make the worst possible choices again, no matter how much more modern the world appears.
George Washington owned slaves right? Most of the founding fathers did, and in grade school, to smooth over that abuse of humanity by an American hero, we as children were told âYes, George Washington did own slaves but he freed them when he died.â And you infer that he didnât like slavery but it was an economic necessity.
And then youâre in your mid twenties watching a food show on Netflix and you learn that because Pennsylvania was a Quaker colony, they led the nation in emancipation and if an enslaved person was in Philadelphia for more than six months, they automatically became freed. And the young nationâs early capital was in Philadelphia, where Washington brought his household of enslaved people with him. And he took them back to Virginia every five months for a time so as to start that clock over and keep them enslaved.
Thereâs a trend with historians to want so badly to maintain the prestige of George Washington and an exceptional and morally pristine figure. And true, there are many instances in his writing where he sounds like his opinion on slavery as an institution is turning and that he knew slavery was wrong. But his actions. He literally had to do absolutely nothing to free his household staff, and took great pains to keep them enslaved.
Itâs important to remember that too. That there were people in positions of enormous power, who know what theyâre doing is wrong, and choose to do it anyway.
Do not let anyone tell you his teeth were made of wood.
hey netizens! i'm not sure how many people are aware, but youtube's been slowly rolling out a new anti-adblock policy that can't be bypassed with the usual software like uBlock Origin and Pi-Hole out of the gate

reblog to help keep the internet less annoying and to tell corporations that try shit like this to go fuck themselves <3
I reblogged this last month, tagged it, and said âmight as well see if it works.â I used this video as a reference to find all the forms that i needed (which is A LOT, especially if youâre a dependent) and sent them through the mail, not really allowing myself to hope.
dude.
$2,714 of medical debt from my top surgery - gone. im shaking this was such a weight on me for 2 years and it fucking worked. what the fuck.
This is huge. Sharing for my US friendos.
Hospitals like to hide these policies under a lot of successive links in obscure places, so if you don't see anything right away, keep looking! Get friends to help! Make it a scavenger hunt. A game where you're assassins sent to slit capitalism's throat
