How to Disable and Remove All AI Features in Mozilla Firefox

*deep, calming breath* On the plus side, the steps at that link were very clear and easy to follow.

Important note: Definitely do Method Two. Method One will make the chat feature invisible, but it may pop up again; Method Two will make it go away entirely.

The more and more days that go on, I realize that the queer community has not unpacked its hatred of masculinity which means trans men, transmascs, masculine lesbians, masculine nonbinary people, etc always end up suffering.

Masculinity is not evil!!!!! Or bad!!!!!!! Free yourself from the radfem in your head I’m begging on behalf of all of us. Treating masculinity like it’s evil led me to suppress my tranness and perform femininity to a damaging degree I’m still trying to heal from.

It’s made me feel like I don’t belong in this community. I’m sick of being treated like I suck for being a man when the general population won’t even refer to me as a man. The only time I get “affirmed” is malgendering and it SUCKS. I swear to god we’re on binary 4.0 at this point where any genders on the feminine side are seen as good where any on the masculine side are evil. Too many of yall take out your frustrations about cishet men on queer and trans men. I’m not your fucking punching bag.

Cishet men have traumatized me. I have my own frustrations towards them. And I’ve talked about this before but that trauma led me down an unhealthy radfem path I had to free myself when I learned they were using my trauma as a way to get me to believe in their ideology. This is a huge reason I didn’t realize I was a trans guy. I didn’t want to identify with the “evil oppressors” who traumatized me. Do you see what I mean? Stop preaching that all men are evil. You’re hurting (especially) young trans men and trans mascs.

Hey so that pic is AI (you can tell because, among other things, the paw prints make no sense)

It's also based of a real pic, so here's the original

Genuinely why would someone waste AI when the original is already perfect

if you're in Europe PLEASE consider signing the Stop Destroying Games initiative. the deadline is July 31st 2025. i've posted about it before; it aims to create legislation for publishers to stop killing the games you pay for and to provide an end-of-life plan for live-service products. thank you!!!

European Citizens' Initiative

Give your support !

the baby gays are trying to dictate identities again and I am Tired. why does it matter? why does anyone having contradictory identities matter to you? you're happily pushing a transphobic rewrite of history in order to dictate how people are allowed to identify now and I am so tired.

let me be the one to break it to you: it does not matter how other people identify. the people in power who want to erase us are not working from a checklist of "good" vs "bad" queers. we are all filthy degenerates in their eyes. it does not matter if you have a label that "makes sense" - if you're not cishet, you've got a target on your back too. it won't save you to tape an extra one to the backs of your community. you will still be punished for deviating from the norm. so stop helping your oppressor. stop doing their work for them.

and for the love of all things good and queer in this world: educate yourselves. read up on your history. speak to queer elders. log the fuck off social media and go and immerse yourself in queer spaces if you're safe to do so. you need to be educated. this political climate relies on you being uneducated and easily manipulated. do not give them the satisfaction.

stand with your community, not against us. we want you to survive.

record turnout for sure. here's some pics i stole from facebook:

the tail end of the crowd only started marching around the time the first part got to the end goal. i can't stress how fucking massive the crowd was. the perfect example of "they can't arrest all of us"; the police didn't even try. no incidents, but we all had an awesome day. 🥰🥰🥰

hate when I'm reading a post that I agree with and is making good points but then they use the terms TME/TMA and I can't in good conscience reblog it because :/

like sometimes the terms won't even be being used in an exclusionary way but it's just...you could've used any other term to communicate the same thing. If you mean "anybody who isn't a trans woman/transfem" then just say that. Stop using exclusionary and intersexist language that doesn't even completely accurately describe the thing you're using it for.

[moved-to-void-cat001]

Since a semi-recent conversation with a friend I've been trying to be a bit less pedantic about the exact phrasing of posts and not overthink every single word or phrase and to keep in mind that a lot of people will reblog a post because it makes important points even if they don't necessarily agree with the language being used. So I have been trying to hear out posts that use the TME/TMA framework (even if I'm still not comfortable sharing them) because sometimes the actual point is solid and something that I take to heart and keep in mind. But I still can't understand why these good posts use those terms.

Why not just say "non-transfems"? Because from what I personally have seen, the people who use the TME/TMA framework are also the people who view transmisogyny as a 100% transfem exclusive experience (because the term doesn't really work otherwise), in which case why not just say "non-transfem" instead? If the issue is something that exclusively cis women do wrong then just say "cis women", if it's about transmascs then just say as much. If it's about people being transmisogynistic then just call them transmisogynists. Why choose to use language that at this point is more often than not (at least from what I've seen) used to hurt non-transfems when you could get your point across just as clearly (if not more clearly) by saying what group of people you're actually referring to? I mean I'm sure some folks just aren't aware of how TME/TMA have been weaponised but it's just, I don't know, I don't have anywhere I'm going with this it's just something that baffles me sometimes even if I am trying to give more benefit of the doubt these days

[moved-to-void-cat001]

I mean don't get me wrong I understand the importance of having the language to talk about experiences and I don't wanna devalue that or anything, I just don't understand what TME/TMA does (in a perfect world where it's solely used in productive and non-hateful ways) that other words don't. From an outside perspective it looks like the only thing those words have that others don't is that it can be used to silence, talk over, belittle or otherwise attack anybody who falls under the 'TME' umbrella

the podcast If Books Could Kill has a really great episode on the original book and its legacy! just a bunch of misogynist evangelical bullshit really

[cherishedproperty]

I want to clarify something kind of important because this kinda used to be my field. The concept that people express and feel love in different ways, and that this might lead to misunderstandings, IS something with scientific merit. The idea that there are just five and we know what they are is NOT. The idea that people have a primary love language is NOT.

In science, we have a saying. All models are wrong, but some are useful. That’s how I see the love languages framework. It is inherently flawed, but some of its concepts are useful. Communicate with your partner what makes you feel loved and understand what makes them feel loved. Understand how your partner shows love. There is immense value in that. But don’t over-index on which one of the five you are. That part doesn’t matter.

sucks that "incel" is just like a generic insult now synonymous with "virgin" bc if people had much of an idea of what incel ideology actually entails, we could have a conversation about radical feminism being quite literally, beat for beat, incel shit for girls

radfems 🤝 incels:

basic, inescapable biology dooms me to be a perpetual victim of the Other (Evil) Sex

me and my ingroup are the primary victims of a society that is fundamentally and irreparably broken

99% of people cannot be trusted and will only hurt and disappoint me, so i need to stay sequestered in insular online communities where people won't try to gaslight me into questioning these truths

the outside world becomes harder and harder to bear as people won't accept my reality, and even my once-closest friends reveal themselves to be of the Enemy

eventually i have to accept the fact that nothing will ever, ever change, and i will die alone and deeply unhappy

[cumdumpstiel]

like radfems also get blackpilled. they fall down pipelines into the deepest darkest extremes of their ideology, and it's increasingly harder to get these people to reengage with the world specifically because their ideology posits that the world is corrupted and divided into Us and Them, and that the ingroup's victim status is biological and innate. it's a system that lends itself naturally to doomerism and blackpilling due partially to the social isolation that comes with it. and it's equally difficult as with incels to "break through" the isolation because these people do not want help whatsoever. they have been thoroughly conditioned to see attempts at helping as Active Victimization and further proof of the rightness of their beliefs
