I don't often make personal posts but two weeks ago I was harassed by a stranger on the street who started following me making rude and homophobic comments when I was already having a particulaly terrible week and it has come to my attention it was filmed and posted on TikTok without my knowledge or consent. Only today was I made aware of it because another stranger told me about it.

For the record, as many people who follow me know, as of now I do not post my face online and try to remain as private as possible. I doubt TikTok would do anything about this bullshit the same way Ebay won't do anything about someone using pictures of me to scam others, but if you see this or any in any other similar matter, please let me know and/or report it if you're able to. I am not a very online person and am generally happier for it but unfortunately online spaces increasing encroach on our normal lives. Even if it likely wouldn't do any good to report especially as many of these companies want to condone transphobia.

I am sorry to ask this again but I need some assistance with the cost of the hotel room close to the hospital Tuesday night before my surgery on Wednesday. I booked it and paid already so it’s not dire but I need help to recover at least some of it. $225 is the total.

I am still taking commissions (I have 3 currently waiting) with the caveat being it’ll take me a while to get to any new ones. Otherwise help via ko-fi is appreciated.

yeah actually we removed the big bad wolf from the little red riding hood story because portraying violence against minors is really messed up. yeah. yeah also the wolf narrative was really predatory and had had some icky grooming vibes and a fable meant for literal children shouldn’t have implied p*do shit and grape so now little red riding hood goes into the woods and nothing happens and she goes to grandma’s house. don’t worry our kids will still stick to the path and know not to follow to wolves implicitly because we told them to and children should always do as their told. just like little red riding hood does now.

Ok the US Attorney General says that she will remove ICE if MN drops all our sanctuary laws, complies with ICE, hands over all our SNAP, Medicaid and voter rolls. They demand control over our voter registration so they can "ensure free and fair elections".

They want to control our elections.

I am dead serious people call your representatives. Get volunteering. Get protesting. Get LOUD.

They released a letter full of straight up lies. Spread the truth. MAKE NOISE.

THIS IS NOT GOOD!!!

Jack Dorsey funded this with his nonprofit AndOtherStuff. The home page for the organization explicitly lists AI as one of its pillars, saying a goal is "making NOSTR the best social protocol for open source AI development and implementation"

A collaborative Nostr funding initiative to develop strategic pillars for the Nostr ecosystem

What is open source AI?

It's a program that publicly shares its code for free online, so that anyone can use it for themselves. This means that anything this AI is trained on could eventually make its way into any business, social media site, etc. That uses this code. Or, if not, it'll have the ability to harvest content as well as this.

Even since the app doesn't allow AI openly on the videos themselves, the app is likely to use our original content to train its AI. You might have seen that some AI have experienced a positive feedback loop of declining quality, training itself on other AI slop until anything it produces is unintelligible.

This is likely an attempt to prevent that in video format

Then, any other company that wants to use the code can use this better trained AI to make it even harder to recognize AI across the board.

You can read about the connection to AndOtherStuff, as well as the developers' reasons for the project here:

Jack Dorsey backs diVine, a Vine reboot that includes Vine's video archive of six-second, looping videos. A new app called diVine will give

TLDR; do not give Jack Dorsey any credit for this, do not download the app, and tell others not to either. It's a nostalgia-bait attempt at fueling another AI model

Misogyny.

[skyptical-deactivated20251018]

You experience misogyny because YOU’RE A WOMAN.

Also, thank you for demonstrating the point that trans “men” transition in an attempt to escape womanhood because of the misogyny that they experience and internalize from a young age.

Like really, this comic shows a girl being mocked and sexualized by boys because of her breasts, and then later we see her with her breasts cut off. but we’re expected to believe that these two things have nothing to do with each other? You don’t even realize your own comic is making OUR point, not yours.

Why is this movement placing the responsibility on women who experience misogyny to mutilate their female bodies to avoid being disrespected? Why aren’t female bodies worthy of respect?

[rottingcanvas]

He experienced misogyny because he had the appearance of a woman. Do you seriously think cis male drag queens don't get sexually harassed by men if they end up being read as women? Are you serious? You think that NEVER happens? Are you calling the cis male drag queen a woman now? Because if you really think through the logic of your statement, that's what you're saying. The person is a cis man in question, and yet, he is experiencing misogyny because a straight man has interpreted him as a woman in that scenario. ---

Also, I'm not expecting you to understand trans men's experience, since this shit's been on the internet for well over a decade and you've had time to listen. Trans people aren't 'putting responsibility on women to mutilate their bodies' . If me getting surgery on my own body makes you feel absolutely devastated, then you need to stop being so invested in other people's bodies. That's strangely possessive. Their bodies belong to them, and your body belongs to you. For me, I transitioned not because I 'hated my female body' but because I wanted to be a man. I wanted it. I was motivated by fulfillment, not pain. I wanted to be seen and feel man (in identity, not just on the street) and referred to as one, because it's ENJOYABLE. It makes me feel GOOD- something you probably could never relate to (assuming you're a cis woman).

There's a difference between being uncomfortable because people are objectifying your body, and being uncomfortable because you want a different body. Even if no men were around me, I couldn't STAND my breasts moving around. The mere sensation of them felt wrong. I hated feeling them whenever I washed, when I walked, when lifted. It was like an un-scratchable itch. When I first grew breasts, I wasn't like 'oh no, men are looking at me!' I wasn't even thinking about men. I thought 'wow these things are fucking annoying and I wish I was flat chested again'. Now that they're gone, it feels amazing. Cis women who are uncomfortable with being objectified still want to be women.

I didn't. Every day it becomes clearer and clearer that I made the right choice, even though other people in public treat me like crap now because they can't tell which gender I am- because I feel one with my body now.

[skyptical-deactivated20251018]

Your body is female. You were born female. You can’t change that about yourself. Why did you want to be a man so bad? Why didn’t you feel good in your female body? Maybe instead of deciding “I don’t feel good as a woman, therefore I’m a man” maybe you should ask yourself WHY you don’t feel good as a woman.

Why wasn’t your female body worthy of your respect, or the respect of others? This is internalized misogyny.

Also, men being sexually harassed by other men does not make them women. A woman isn’t a “person who is sexually harassed by men”. A woman is an adult human female. Which is what you are, no matter how much you try to change that.

[mr-gallows]

My body is female- yeah I know? You're not telling me anything I don't already know? Trans people aren't claiming their sex is different, they're talking about gender. I think it's hilarious that you think trans people don't put serious thought into their identity before transitioning. As if it isn't a big decision and we just go. I tried being a woman in every which way. Feminine, androgynous, tomboy- none of it felt right. It all sucked. I felt separate from my body, no matter what I did. I also remember YEARNING to be a man. I really recognized my dysphoria when I saw a picture of myself with a male filter on it, and I WISHED it really could have been me. That was over five years ago, and I just repressed that feeling and waited, deliberating. I even thought it could have been internalized misogyny, and I tried to sort out my feelings before transitioning. I decided to take a leap of faith and try it, because I didn't want to live my life going 'what if?'

It turned out to be the right decision for me, because I've never felt so complete. I feel connected to my body in a way that I never have before, and THAT is what you need to pay attention to. I didn't feel connected before. Now I do. I don't feel like I'm operating a foreign meat-machine anymore.

Does feeling like you're operating a machine sound like internalized misogyny to you? Because that sounds more like dissociation, if I were to pick anything. It wasn't about respect for me, it was about feeling one with myself. If you think I disrespected my body, that is your interpretation. Do you feel the same way about tattoos, then? But I'm sure that explanation isn't satisfying to you, because you'd rather pigeonhole a group of people you don't understand or relate to, just like the average homophobe, racist, and misogynist. You sound just like a homophobe saying "have you ever considered that it was being SA'd that made you gay? You're really just straight."
