And always there’s the Doctor. Always I’m running to save the Doctor; again and again and again. And he hardly ever hears me. But I’ve always been there, right from the very beginning, right from the day he started running

Testing out the new tumblr photoset feature. 

[thefrogman]

People were mentioning gifsets.

Did you know… I made the very first one?

Tumblr announced a new “photoset” feature and they mainly intended it as a way to post a bunch of still images.

And I was like, does it work with GIFs?

I made this and then it inspired a ton of other people to do creative things with multiple GIFs.

My favorite was this one.

How can you post a gif set without a link to the movie? It’s on YouTube.

Is it supposed to be only thirty minutes long?

yes and it will be the greatest half hour of your life

One of the best movies I have ever had the pleasure of watching

[radicalmuscle-deactivated-2019]

This movie is like a combination of Scott Pilgrim, Tron, and Quentin Tarantino.

[thetallblacknerd]

An unrivaled cinematic masterpiece

is this like the new version of Kung Pow! Enter the Fist (2002)?

it exists to divide the working class. All labour is skilled labour. Yes including that one. Yes, including that one too.

Do you know what's unskilled labour? Owning capital. There's no labour involved, thus requires no skill. And you can tell because people can be born into owning capital.

Gen Z men twice as likely as boomers to say wives should "always obey"

“It is troubling to see that attitudes towards gender equality are not more positive," said Julia Gillard of King’s College London.

[innerchildabortionclinic]

>Particularly among Gen Z, our data shows an interesting duality: they are both the group most likely to agree that women who have a successful career are more attractive to men but are simultaneously most likely to agree that a wife should always obey her husband and that a woman should never appear too self-sufficient or independent.

Incredibly stupid things are happening

[cryptiddies]

I know these two things seem contradictory, but there’s nothing a conservative man loves more than to tear off an angel’s wings. There are plenty of women that would willingly choose the obedient SAHM lifestyle, but these kinds of men always seem to go for the opposite. Why? Because it’s a power play. There’s no need to break a horse that’s already broken, and that would do nothing to validate that man, his ego, and his place in a world he sees as designed for him.

not to be captain obvious here but they literally just knowingly lied about this for a decade & ruined our lives. there was never any evidence to support trans women having an advantage over cis women it was always just made up to further transmisogyny & sexism.

also notice how the telegraph is really trying to avoid using the word trans women, even referring to a trans women as a women is a crime in the uk.

New Study Once Again Shows Trans Women Have No Physical Advantage Over Cis Athletes

Researchers analyzed data from almost 3,000 trans women.

Body composition and physical fitness in transgender versus cisgender individuals: a systematic review with meta-analysis

Objective

To compare body composition and physical fitness between transgender and cisgender individuals.

Design

Systematic review with meta-analysis.

Data sources

PubMed, Web of Science, Embase and SportDiscus.

Eligibility criteria

Inclusion criteria comprised studies of transgender individuals comparing body composition or physical fitness pre-to-post gender-affirming hormone therapy (GAHT) or versus cisgender controls.

Results

52 studies (n=6485) were included. Transgender women had similar relative fat mass (standardised mean difference (SMD) −0.33, 95% CI −0.72 to 0.05, Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development and Evaluation (GRADE): very low), relative lean mass (SMD 0.19, 95% CI −0.14 to 0.53, GRADE: low), upper-body strength (SMD 0.54, 95% CI −0.95 to 2.02, GRADE: very low), lower-body strength (SMD 0.05, 95% CI −1.31 to 1.40, GRADE: very low) and maximal oxygen consumption (SMD −0.28, 95% CI −0.81 to 0.25, GRADE: very low) in comparison to cisgender women. Transgender men exhibited higher relative fat mass (SMD 0.96, 95% CI 0.28 to 1.64, GRADE: moderate), lower relative lean mass (SMD −6.42, 95% CI −12.26 to −0.58, GRADE: moderate) and lower upper-body strength (SMD −1.46, 95% CI −2.52 to −0.40, GRADE: moderate) than cisgender men. In transgender women, GAHT was associated with increased fat mass and reduced lean mass and upper-body strength over 1–3 years. Transgender men demonstrated reduced fat mass and increased lean mass and strength following GAHT.

Conclusion

While transgender women exhibited higher lean mass than cisgender women, their physical fitness was comparable. Current evidence is mostly low certainty and has heterogenous quality but does not support theories of inherent athletic advantages for transgender women over cisgender.

[official-megumin]

I think we should add this little addendum from the study:

"In fact, when height-normalised, transgender women and cisgender women appear to show comparable appendicular lean mass/height² or lean mass/height²."

Basically the difference in absolute lean mass (the study makes it clear that relative lean mass between cis and trans women is essentially the same) comes from trans women on average being taller than cis women.

From this study, showing that cis and trans women are pretty much entirely comparable. Yet according to this trans men are "somewhat in between" in terms of strength and body composition, makes me wonder if on a structural level transmascs aren't given enough testosterone to have actual similar levels to cis men. We see this with estradiol in transfems, so I don't think it's out of the question, especially given how testosterone is generally viewed in the public eye.

Of course it's nothing but a hunch, but probably worth looking into really

[official-megumin]

also

This is like the third or fourth time a big landmark study has been published that pretty definitively proves that trans women don't have physical advantages over cis women. Not even the first to go through and fact check other studies and confidently concluded that pretty much all of them hyper focused on specifics, like absolute lean mass here, without pointing out how height or hand size for an example accounts for it (and also is present in cis women, it's all based on averages after all)

Or straight up conducted studies without having the trans women be on estradiol or testosterone suppressants and just didn't disclose that.

Every single study showing trans women having advantages was like that. As OP said.

All of the bans and discourse has been based on lies and deceit from the very start.

Sadly this probably won't change anything, because governments and agencies do not care for facts, they care about excluding.

But at least if you come across people either willfully or ignorantly perpetuating lies, you can show them this to get them on the right track, or to shut them the fuck up

Fun fact: many public libraries now have 3D printers that you can pay to use! We charge per gram of filament so something like this would probably be less than $10! Just a thought for anyone who wants 3D printed stuff w/o having to buy a several hundred dollar machine

In 2012 I painted the top image: Rise

In 2026 I am saddened to have to repaint this update: Fall

[bedbyninethirty]

I started following Yuumei back in 2011-2012 when I was in high school. Her painting "Rise" was such a huge inspiration for me. Now, to see "Fall", I cannot help but feel that this is an important, tragic, and monumental moment in our history as Americans - as a world.

Thank you for painting "Fall", Yuumei. I think it's really important and powerful, even if it breaks my heart to see such an important painting I've loved for over a decade update in such a way.
