Is Trump making yet another big brained move or is he retarted.

Is Gavin Newsom totally owning MAGA or has he always been a dick.

Do the Democrats have some trick up their sleeve they're waiting to play or have they always rolled over to fascism.

This is the mindest you get in when you worship celebrities. Imagine just some average person you know. Now saddle them with immense responsibility and not enough time or information. They probably won't be able to do it.

Now ask yourself what kind of person gravitates towards that position.

Now that you've thought about that, maybe you can understand a bit better how world leaders make decisions.

You're doing a lot of the heavy lifting for their image.

"why are there so few historical trans men? why is transmasc history so sparse compared to other trans peoples' histories?"

yeah, I wonder why.

I wonder why we "see so few historical trans men contributing to society's history, inventions, and innovations". I wonder why.

(In before someone claims ur calling trans men women)

Gee I wonder why the systematically erased group, both currently and from history has so few historical examples and records. It's almost as if people forced into womanhood (based on observed and presumed genetalia) were treated the same as pericis women and lacked rights just as pericis women did. /Sarcasm

and if they were stealth and lived and died as men, they were disrespected post mortem.

(may I remind everyone of Dr James Barry. Literally erasing his gender in lieu of having a "feminist icon" which is strange. sex variant people shouldn't have their genders erased to be feminist icons.)

Skip Google for Research

As Google has worked to overtake the internet, its search algorithm has not just gotten worse.  It has been designed to prioritize advertisers and popular pages often times excluding pages and content that better matches your search terms 

As a writer in need of information for my stories, I find this unacceptable.  As a proponent of availability of information so the populace can actually educate itself, it is unforgivable.

Below is a concise list of useful research sites compiled by Edward Clark over on Facebook. I was familiar with some, but not all of these.

⁂

Google is so powerful that it “hides” other search systems from us. We just don’t know the existence of most of them. Meanwhile, there are still a huge number of excellent searchers in the world who specialize in books, science, other smart information. Keep a list of sites you never heard of.

www.refseek.com - Academic Resource Search. More than a billion sources: encyclopedia, monographies, magazines.

www.worldcat.org - a search for the contents of 20 thousand worldwide libraries. Find out where lies the nearest rare book you need.

https://link.springer.com - access to more than 10 million scientific documents: books, articles, research protocols.

www.bioline.org.br is a library of scientific bioscience journals published in developing countries.

http://repec.org - volunteers from 102 countries have collected almost 4 million publications on economics and related science.

www.science.gov is an American state search engine on 2200+ scientific sites. More than 200 million articles are indexed.

www.pdfdrive.com is the largest website for free download of books in PDF format. Claiming over 225 million names.

www.base-search.net is one of the most powerful researches on academic studies texts. More than 100 million scientific documents, 70% of them are free

fuck "peace and love" in the rq community or whatever. your passivity is insulting. this community is and has always been full of dangerous people.

if you treat discourse as being equally bad as harassment, you're not a safe person.

if you preach that everyone should just get along, you're not a safe person.

if you think the worst part of the rq community is the infighting, you're not a safe person.

if you force everyone to respect the opinions of others, you're not a safe person.

if you emphasize making yourself seem safe rather than doing anything to make the community safe, you're not a safe person.

if you think benefit of the doubt is the way to go, you're not a safe person.

if you disrespect people for not wanting to be around those who shake hands with their oppressors and abusers, you're not a safe person.

if you're a centrist, you're not a safe person.

xenosatanists, abuse apologists, pro-genocide individuals, and anyone similar should not feel welcome in the community. you need to prioritize protecting people from them because they are capable of harm. you cannot accept living alongside them. baring your teeth when the danger comes is how you become a safe person for those who actually need it.

The Merry Melodies cartoon "Greetings, Bait" about a worm vs. a crab dd SUCH an imaginative abstract gag here that really only works with a stalk-eyed character design. It's too bad they never used the crab in anything else.

I don't know who needs to hear this but you've probably got vegetables in your fridge that are starting to go a little off so you should probably plan on making a frittata or a pot of soup in the next couple days.

[ms-demeanor]

I don't know who needs to hear this but almost every bit of fresh produce you've got that might be about to go off can likely be safely frozen for use later if you want to keep it, and that the amount of waste generated by consumers is a tiny portion of food waste generally and you're not a bad or wasteful person if you forgot your veggies or you weren't feeling well enough to cook.

[ms-demeanor]

I don't know who needs to hear this but if you have literally any vegetable that is on the cusp of going bad and it won't survive freezing and thawing well, you can put it in a bag in the freezer that you fill with other iffy vegetables and the ends of onions and the tops of carrots and potato peels and when that bag is full you can dump it into a stock pot and fill the stock pot with water and add a bay leaf and some garlic and salt and bring it to a boil then reduce to a simmer for three hours then strain out the solids and you will have a vegetable broth that is immeasurably better than the stuff you buy at the store and you can then freeze that broth (I use cleaned plastic food containers for this purpose, I like 16oz sour cream containers so it's pre-measured into 2-cup increments for cooking) and use it to make soups and roasts and foods so good that everyone will think you're a brilliant cook when really you just needed something to do with the cucumber that was getting squishy.

And pretty much any fruit that's going bad can be diced up and stuck in a freezer bag for later use in a smoothie.
