Wait. So the Trump administration really cut funding to the program that would research and respond to the spread of New World Screwworm past the Darién Gap because they blamed it on climate change, and left the joint international program to Mexico and the Central American Countries... And are panicking now that it's reached Texas, and only now that the flies have already made it all the way from Panama to Texas are they building New facilities to produce the sterile male flies needed to eradicate the pest?

I'm sorry to everyone who lives on the entire continent.

America is Trump's pump and dump scheme. If he's not getting a third term then he'll break the country for whatever poor soul has to clean up his mess.

[wyf-of-bathe]

New World screwworm had been eradicated from the US since the 1960s, Elon Musk brought it back in a year.

Notably, DOGE cut the funding a few days before the US resumed imports of cattle from Mexico... the imports that had been suspended because of the screwworm outbreak in Mexico. So we've had a year of importing cattle from Mexico during a screwworm outbreak without monitoring the outbreak that we already knew about. Mexico's outbreak is pretty bad btw, and cases have been found not just in cattle and dogs but also humans. I assume the rest of Central America too. Not that many people seem to give a fuck about them ig.

In exactly the same vein, the department meant to deal with things like bedbugs...is now infested with bedbugs.

This may be the best Pride merch I've seen from a major corporation.

Levi's said yes, actually. Assless chaps and a biker vest. Happy Pride.

And the assless chaps sold out on June 1.

They also specifically contacted members of the leather community, used them as models iirc, and donated $100k to Outright International. They talked the talk and walked the walk and put their money on it too. I don't really care that I can't afford and don't want this merch, I love to see my community getting the respect it deserves. Levi's said, "We make jeans which gays wear lots of jeans? Oh leather daddies? Let's call them."

[fandomsandfeminism]

I think Levi's donates to Outreach International every year too, as well as sponsoring pride events and other community support. They were offering Same Sex domestic partner benefits to employees in the 90s, and have been very public about their support for pro-lgbt legislation all through the 2000s.

So, you know, a giant corporation that walks the walk pretty consistently.

When the CEO of the company that didn't turn away Nazi business says "this isn't going to work" you know it's bad.

important that you never forgive ice agents, ever. even years after all this is over (and I do believe we will make it out on the other side, alive and for the better,) they live in shame and disgrace forever. no excuses, no forgiveness. they ruined their own lives when they decided that human freedom and liberty was an acceptable sacrifice for a paycheck

btw it's so fucking stupid you can be anxious physically in your body even after you've decided mentally you don't care. I'm supposed to be in charge here

[lazaruspiss]

People know that the whole "don't portray [harmful action] because viewers might recreate it" thing is a rule for children's shows right? It's supposed to be shit like "don't show peppa pig playing with fire so we don't get sued if a kid watches it and burns their house down." Not like, fanfiction for adults.

[lazaruspiss]

prev i hope u dont mind me sharing ur tags bc yeah this is an interesting add on

[wholeheartedsuggestions]

it’s scary but you have to

let people love you

accept help

do the hard thing and do it scared

let your growth be slow

[redstonedust]

idk how to explain it but im never truly comfortable with the way people insinuate that all older folks are inherently bigoted. it always feels like it kind of hand-waves away personal responsibility like ohhhh grandpa cant help homophobic, hes old. well ive met plenty of older folks who are normal about gay people. i think grandpa could be better. i think we should hold grandpa to higher standards.

I've told this story a lot of times, but my in-laws went from "my father-in-law told my wife 'it's better to marry than to burn' when she came out to them for the first time, as bi, in the late 90s" to "leaving their shitty regressive church, helping build their new church's Pride float, and then opening their home to act as sponsors and a landing space for two trans women fleeing persecution in Central America, who they call 'our girls' and who call them Mom and Dad and check in with them weekly from their new home together as a married couple on the East Coast with their paperwork all sorted."

And on the other hand, I wrote my biological father a letter a few months ago calling him out on the shit he was saying to family about the trans people who are his kids and grandkids, and he tried to lie to my face about it while saying "it's just my traditional ways."

My FIL is in frequent contact with all of his children and is visited by them regularly. My father's grandkids haven't spoken to him in years, and 2/3 of his children don't talk to him at all. My mom respects our names & pronouns, even if she doesn't "get it" or whatever,* and I text with her pretty much every day.

It's Granddad's choice whether or not he wants to be lonely.

*tbh, you can't make someone "get it". At my age, as long as someone treats me with respect, whatever goes on in their head and heart is between them and their God and is nothing to do with me.

My grandma is a dyed-in-the-wool Southern Baptist and I admit I was nervous about coming out to her as trans, so my auntie (who is more like a big sister to me) offered to tell her. And my grandma's response was "Well I don't understand it per se, but I'm proud of you for being who you are." And then she went to my auntie, who is a doctor, and was like "so clearly things have changed since I was last in biology class, explain me how this works because clearly there is a gap in my education here and I want to understand." (which my aunt did, s/o to my aunt who works at a children's hospital and has had trans patients). Like did I think my grandma would freak out? No. Was I still nervous? Yes. But her response was so awesome and heartening, and this is a woman in her late 80s.

FYI if you don't know there is a boycott against DC right now. DC hasn't had a mainline ongoing comic run for a black character in 1201 days. As a big DC fan this is unacceptable. Please pirate their comics, movies, shows etc

[padmestrilogy]

must be so frustrating to be luke skywalker and have pulled off the first successful “i can fix him” and you can’t even prove it bc the him dies 5 min later

[fudemushi]

If you met someone with the same last name as you, how surprised would you be?

Not at all, it's very common

A little surprised, but wouldn't immediately assume a connection

I would be surprised and assume there was some relation

I would be very surprised that I *hadn't* met this person, we must be related

Does anyone else with this last name even exist?
