Is your stance that cars can’t be weaponized?
I think a car can certainly kill someone, and they do every day!
(as a side note I think "weaponise" is usually dumb cop speak, like you can technically weaponise a piano by dropping it on someone or weaponise words by uh saying mean stuff about someone or whatever, but it's unnecessary to talk in this stilted way and it is typically applied to suggest that someone was "armed" when they would normally be considered unarmed, much like expansively vague references to "violence", so I would discourage that usage for clarity).
most "car-involved deaths" are accidental, the result of carelessness and poor design, speeding, intoxication, bad weather, and the sheer risk factor inherent to humans directing large vehicles at speed.
it's difficult to hit a specific person with a car and so deliberate car attacks usually involve driving into a crowd of people, or rigging the vehicle with explosives (an actual example of a truly "weaponised car").
a car is more often a means of escape, but a risky chase or ramming another vehicle may result in injuries or deaths that cross the line from accident to negligence to manslaughter to homicide depending on exactly how it plays out on the scene and later in court; driving into a crowd to evade the police would be a horrifying car attack even if the driver had no particular intention of committing murder that day.
(a friend of mine was killed along with several other people in the 2017 Bourke St car attack; the perpetrator was technically fleeing police but was so mentally disturbed at the time that it's difficult to say anything definitive about his intentions or state of mind, he is serving a life sentence and Melbourne now has dozens of additional protective bollards as a result).
I think Homeland Security is far too quick to speak of "weaponised vehicles" and even "domestic terrorism" (!) in cases where people are clearly trying to escape or evade detention by ICE, or in some cases where they are attempting to obstruct ICE operations but clearly without murderous intent.
this rhetorical escalation is unhelpful as it contributes to exactly the kind of hostile interactions and trigger-happy outcomes that we are seeing, and it just doesn't seem necessary: there are already established procedures for law enforcement and the hasty ICE upsizing feels like a rushed botch job for political reasons where the chaos is desired as it shows that Something Is Being Done and reinforces the narrative that justifies applying a heavy hand.
Theophite over on Bluesky actually went to the trouble of looking it up: the last time a CPB officer was killed by a car in the line of duty was 1960. Three times, ever, in the history of the agency. An ICE officer never has been. On the flip side, ten years ago DHS had to start training their agents not to stand in front of cars because they were doing it deliberately to give themselves an excuse to shoot. They are currently (allegedly) trained never to do that. One of the more parsimonious explanations here is that the guy stood in front of the car deliberately in order to give himself an excuse to murder that woman. Defending this shit as good faith “he was afraid for his life” stuff, given what we know about how these guys are trained, ultimately just paints the picture of somebody who was terrible at their job and on a paranoid hair trigger, which still amounts to something morally indistinguishable from murder.
Given the rancid takes used to defend this shooting, like people arguing on TV that federal agents have the right to kill anyone who disobeys their orders (remember: law enforcement frequently yells contradictory orders at people on purpose!), I cannot come to any conclusion other than most people defending this just think it’s good when liberals get shot.
ive said it before and ill say it again, self harm is an incredibly valuable grounding technique and without it i almost certainly would have done far more harm to myself than any cutting or burning could have. We need to stop framing self harm as this ultimate horror indication of damage, why is this form of self harm any different than another?
We should be teaching people harm reduction not that self harm means you're broken. I'm sorry if anyone has ever made you feel that way. If self harm makes you feel better, even for a moment, why shouldn't you be allowed to do that? people do shit that harms their body all the fucking time but this one thing is off limits?
I'm edging around the topic because it's almost certainly ban worthy but like, if it helps fucking do it, id much rather you use a "less than ideal" grounding technique (which im already rolling my eyes just typing that) than have no way to help yourself.
I hope this makes sense and helps at least one person, i love you <3
THEY KILLED AMITY???????
you're not allowed to tell girls who are in a terrible place that they're not broken. it's a bannable offense on tumblr.
Honestly, fuck @staff. This post helped save my life and @staff banned her. Fuck you @staff, when ya'll are *anywhere* close to the level of harm reduction that this post provided, maybe then you'll be a real blogging site again
THEY KILLED ESTROGEN BLOOD CHALK TOOO?????
they cannot kill me in any way that matters. Thanks for being here, lovely.
they've been very clear with us on this point: you're not allowed to tell girls who are in a terrible place that they're not broken. it's a bannable offense on tumblr.
I'll do it again.
Do you remember when Amity risked her blog to give love and paid the price? I haven't forgotten.
Let me settle the 'is it fetishism and is it bad?' debate once and for all:
Being attracted to any kind of body is normal. Fat bodies. Trans bodies. Disabled bodies. All normal. Being extra attracted to a specific kind of body is normal too. Totally normal to have a type.
Not unlearning the societal stigma attached to those kinds of bodies, the people who inhabit those bodies, and the people who fuck them, to the point where you do any of the following:
Only want to date/fuck the person in secret.
Reduce the person to the feature that you desire and ignore the rest of who they are as a person.
Expect the person to be a walking porn fantasy instead of a real person with their own sexual preferences and boundaries.
Would no longer love the person if the stigmatized aspect of their body changed.
Consider yourself superior to the person, think the person should be 'grateful' that you love their body, etc.
See the person as a temporary adventure while planning to eventually settle down with someone whose body isn't stigmatized.
Is bad and harmful and you shouldn't be dating anyone until you've worked on your shit, because this makes you a very terrible partner. This doesn't mean you are a bad person with bad-fetishist-desires who can only desire people badly, it means you need to unlearn societal stigma so you can be a better partner to the people you desire.
Thank you for coming to me ted talk.
keep going you're almost hitting my squeaker

The Prairieland case is Federal case prosecuting 19 people with terrorism after a noise demo at an ICE detention facility in Praireland, Texas in July 2025. Most have been convicted and are currently awaiting sentencing after being found guilty on multiple federal charges. Towards the end of the noise demo an Alvarado police officer was grazed in the neck with a bullet. The Prosecutors claim this was a coordinated ambush by an “antifa cell”. In reality its a drag-net prosecution against loosely acquainted people. If the corrupt verdict of this case is not over turned it will set a precedent that participating in black a bloc is terrorism and can land you decades in jail. We support the non-cooperating defendants not because they are victims of a miscarriage of justice, but because we support all who fight back against domination. Punks have historically played an important roll in spreading and sharpening anarchy across the world. This tape aims to continue that legacy. We affirm that I.C.E. Prisons & Police must be destroyed. People, plants and animals must be freed from the claws of colonial civilization. Against the state, Against capitalism, Solidarity with anarchist prisoners now & forever.
Money raised from this compilation will go towards the legal fees of the Prairieland Defendants

After some years of HRT I've been left with this deep, low simmering rage. Because what do you mean it was always this easy to be happy
I take a shot once a week, and even if that was too much, I could do it as pills, and so many of my problems just evaporated overnight.
And not one person thought to bring it up.
When I was talking about how horrifying puberty felt. When I was cutting myself. When I was in inpatient care. When I attempted suicide. When I talked for YEARS in therapy about how dissociated and trapped I felt in my body. When I felt like I never truly fixed something that was deeply wrong about me that started at puberty.
Not one person said it was a possibility. No one thought "hey, maybe this kid should go to someone trained to identify dysphoria". No one mentioned that trans people weren't some weird other group of people. It didn't have to be pressure. It didn't have to be "forcing" me. Just mentioning that trans people exist and it could be me. That it was possible and it was easy. No pushing, just laying the option out there.
HRT is treated like this last ditch option. This horrific, mutilating thing that I GUESS we can give to you if you have NO OTHER options. Because did you know it's permanent? Did you know you'll be on it for the rest of your life? Did you know the health risks? Did you know it'll make you infertile? Did you know that it's deviant? Did you know that it's an alternative lifestyle for other people?
No one said it was okay to WANT it to be permanent. Or noted that most people are reliant on the medical system in one way or the other anyways (and it's not even necessary for HRT). Or that the health risks are the normal parts of having that hormone, even in cis people of your gender. Or said it was okay to not want kids, or mention that you can just freeze gametes. Or acknowledged that the "deviant" people are just people, living their lives, that have been violently pushed out of "normal" society.
I grew up in an area that Republicans mock for being a kind of "woke central". And even then it's just. Not treated as an easy option. It was never on the table if you don't specifically already know you're going through gender stuff, and no one will help you get to that point. At which point, it's still treated like the last ditch option. Did you know you can be a feminine man? Did you know you can slap a "she/her" in your twitter bio and be done with it? Did you know that you're oh-so-valid without it? Did you know that you shouldn't take HRT? Maybe don't take HRT? Don't take HRT? Don't take HRT? Don't ta-
When you've been in it a while, HRT is the easiest, most casual thing in the world. Just pop a shot on a Saturday as part of your "everything shower" routine and you're done.
Anyways. Support trans kids always and forever.
And if anyone comes swinging in here with "but Sierra you don't have to take HRT to be trans this is toxic" I'm going to fucking scream, because that is the status quo. "Just do this without doing this" has become a "give them an inch" refrain when making ourselves "acceptable" to the cis. Of COURSE you don't need to take HRT. I'm only reminded of it a dozen times a day.
The maddening thing is that recognizing I’m trans wasn’t the thing that finally helped me. It’s the fucking estrogen. I went from feeling like an empty husk to an actual living person before my tits started coming in. I’d sooner give up my antidepressants, because they’re not as important to my mental health.
I am once again begging you to get your hands on physical media and/or save your fave stuff OFFLINE.
More and more, I’m grateful for the past me who printed out my digital photos and saved all my music CDs over the years. Some of my favorite books I cherished as a teen are not even available to buy as an ebook, period.
