I wish I took a better pic of this writing in a bar bathroom in toronto bc I think of it so often. Be So Completely Yourself That No One Is Attracted To You Or Wants To Employ You

Really my media Crit hot take is that the fundamental myth tha action media writ large sells isn't even that violence and killing are good or righteous or heroic but that they are precise and discriminating.

Sorry but I genuinely don't have any sympathy for people who "supported" trans rights and then got swayed by basic moral panic 101 shit.

If all it takes to remove your "support" of an entire demographic is a few anecdotes about individuals allegedly from that demographic doing bad things, you're on the same level as... every single other reactionary hate movement, actually.

"Oh but trans people went after women and children" you incurious dipshit. This is what they say about gay people when they're going after gay people. It's what they say about immigrants when going after immigrants. It's what they say about religious minorities when going after religious minorities. You fell for the oldest trick in the fucking book.

I heard a cis person did a crime once so we should really be taking away all their rights already

Everything I read about recovering from burnout is like “it takes months or even years to fully recover” and it’s like okay…. I have a weekend before I gotta clock in on Monday

the way ppl talk about latinas is kind of very gross if I'm being honest

[xenasaur]

they're like reverse Asians bro they're all stacked and they're fiery mamacitas who you can break like a horse and make into domestic servants who love family

[xenasaur]

"bro I need a big booty latina" bro I need you to kill yourself

Why did we let getting paid every 2 weeks get normalized like how tf did that happen

i do think the negative interpretations of "im probably nonbinary but i have a job right now" are kind of reaching. it's obviously a waste of time to theorize the op's intended meaning, so instead i think it's better to recognize how the phrase can be a useful framing device to criticize how much of a fucking hassle it is to get gendered correctly. "but i have a job" e.g. will face discrimination that could threaten livelihood; e.g. don't have the mental bandwidth to explain gender to others; e.g. don't have the time and energy for the soul-searching necessary to confirm. all three of these are labor issues. yes you could interpret it as "but being nonbinary isn't important enough to worry about", despite that being a blatantly bad-faith read. it's more useful to interpret it as "but being publicly nonbinary requires a lot of social effort that, in many cultural contexts, will create more problems that you can't afford to deal with". like cmon it's a really good jumping off point for productive conversations about queer labor rights

people love the idea of the mean girl nurse pipeline because it problematises medical abuse as a personal perversion rather than understanding it as a product of broadly held ableist values and its like, if this was only about ontologically evil teenage girls choosing to enter a profession because of their unique sadism then you really wouldnt expect to see the exact same forms of abuse pervading all arrangements of paid, unpaid, formal, ad hoc, and familial caretaking as well -- its more comforting to believe the nurse was just a preexisting bad person than that most of the world broadly hates disabled people and will abuse, neglect, and gaslight them if given power over their care
