awww the like button turns into a rainbow when you press it! that's so cute...hey staff what's with all the trans women you keep nuking?

manuciruja

i think we should be ridiculing them more for this. you don't get to try and go all "queer website" when your staff likes to go on nuking sprees targeting the trans fem users

smadsel

would be remiss not to mention that the rainbow notably straight up just removed the trans flag colors from it. like they’re gone. it’s the progress flag minus the trans flag colors.

smadsel

that’s not the whole flag, now is it

Is it an “objectively funny crime”, or is it part of a campaign of stalking and psychological abuse designed from the outside to look trivial in order to discredit the victim who is experiencing real harm?

Learning this was an intentional genocide changed me.

fighterkimburgess

I know most of those following me know this, but just to make it super clear. An Gorta Mór (The Great Hunger/the Great Famine) was a deliberate genocide of the Irish people. There was enough food grown in Ireland to make sure everyone was alive and healthy and survived. Instead it was exported, sent to England and elsewhere for profit while men, women, and children starved in the streets. While the English landlords fucked off and evicted starving families who couldn’t afford rent. While babies were too weak to cry and died at the side of the road.

They tried to kill us, but they did not succeed. And we owe so much thanks to the other oppressed peoples, in particular the Choctaw Nation and the Masai, who sent money and grain to us.

Let me repeat that. The Choctaw Nation who had just gone through the Trail of Tears sent us money to try save Irish lives. It’s led to an understanding between Irish people and Native American tribes, most recently when we donated to the Navajo and Hopi fundraisers for COVID-19 relief, because while it may be a different tribe, Irish people will never forget those who helped us and we’ll help back.

The entire population of the island is less than seven million people. We’re still a million less on this island than pre famine. And it’s not that long ago. My grandmother’s grandparents lived through it. We’ve told the stories, it literally changed the DNA of the country. We have a national fear of renting, because so many people were evicted. People joke about Irish people always offering loads of food, but it’s because there’s that cultural memory of not being able to.

They tried to kill us, but they did not succeed. We will not let them take our lives, we will not let them take our language. We lost so much, but we will not lose it all.

This is why I get so angry when people say “it was the potato famine, it was because of monoculture/microbes.”

Nope. The potatoes were the only thing Irish people were allowed to fucking eat, because as pointed out, the rest of the crops they were growing were for their landlords to ship to England. So when the one “worthless” crop they were allowed to eat rotted in the field, the English crown, empire, landlords, all shrugged and carried on. People starved to death lying next to productive fields.

obvs it can be annoying for others when people don't understand something "obvious"

but I do wish people would hold more grace for people who are "stupid"

as my cognitive & memory symptoms get worse I'm seeing myself in these stories more and more

the woman who is visibly confused in public and doesn't see the sign right next to her and asks the same question multiple times because she doesn't understand the answer or is failing to communicate the question she actually means to ask.

the person who enters a building and has to ask if she's found the right place, because she's too overwhelmed to put together the "obvious"

the person who is polite and respectful but who still needs something explained three different ways before she gets it.

and I get the frustration, I really do.

but the next time you see a "total idiot" in public who clearly genuinely has no idea what's going on, please just try to remember that it sucks to be that person too.

and as someone who has no choice about being that person, it sucks to see post after post ripping into people for just being confused in public. Not rude or entitled, just confused.

Obvs I'm not saying people shouldn't vent or laugh online at anonymous strangers who will never see it. Especially when they ARE rude or entitled!

I just feel like I'm seeing a lot more posts about "stupid people" recently and half the time "being stupid" was the only thing they did to piss ppl off and...

Idk sometimes it just comes across as really mean.

If you knew that "stupid" person was confused bc they're disabled, would you be just as mean?

If not, please consider: why on earth would you expect to always know when a stranger in public is disabled?

People are generally trying their best. Even those who aren't disabled—u don't know what their day is like!

Do you think YOU could think clearly on the worst day of your life?

Have you ever been so upset you barely know what's going on? Ever had to run errands while coming off anaesthesia or while a loved one is dying or while your scary newly-ex is blowing up your phone with threats or god, even just when you'd been up all night and feel like shit?

Giving people grace when and how you can is an incredibly rewarding practice. I want us all to be given that grace when we most need it.

mephistopheles

um so quick question you do know that the world isn’t divided into People Blindly Accepting Of Gender Roles and Smart Trans Ppl. the world isn’t divided into People In Romantic Relationships and Single Aros. the world isn’t divided into People Who Socialize Easily and Oppressed Autistics. the world isn’t divided into Enlightened Queer People and Stupid Misogynists. like you are aware of this ? i hope you are aware of this

Hi happy pride!! 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍🌈 Last year I saw some art by @/alomaire-art that had bansheep in nonbinary colors and I loved it so much (since bansheep is my favorite cb monster and im nonbinary!) that I drew their enbysheep again for this year’s pride 💛🤍💜🖤

a lot of people have talked about how carelessly using race as a metaphor/allegory/analogy or whatever ends up at best being confusing and at worst being downright racist in and of itself but something I notice that doesn’t get discussed a lot is that those usages tend to like. assume there’s exactly two races and also there’s no one who’s mixed race. especially when it comes to Discourse (arguing which oppressed group is basically white people is so fundamentally obviously flawed I don’t think I even need to explain why) but its absolutely not exclusive to it. if you’re turning race into a binary value I don’t think you understand the concept enough to use it like this.

#the reason that lab safety regulations are the way they are is because literally all chemists are like this #as in 100% of them #no exceptions (via @prokopetz)

My uncle has a chemistry book from 1847 and it has a similarly entertaining observation about "fulminating powder".

"When a quantity of this mixture is placed on a shovel, and heated gradually, until the sulphur begins to inflame, it explodes, giving a loud and stunning report, and leaving the ears hardly in a state to hear any thing more for hours, or if the quantity be considerable, even for days. Not more than 15 or 20 grains of this powder should be exploded at once, unless in the open air."

(Looks like the Internet Archive also has a copy, from 1842!)

excessivesilverrings

y'all don't need to restrict this to chemistry. All scientists are like this in their chosen field.

Source: one of my professors, having received a mummified human arm (not in the pop culture sense) in less than enough time to find a place to store it before class, simply put it on my lab bench on the assumption I would be delighted.

He was correct and this is my favorite anecdote to share at networking events.

Surprisingly good way of finding people who want to talk to me and/or discouraging people who don't.

There's a post going around Tumblr about how if you're post-menopausal and have bleeding, you should get it checked by your doctor. I brought some minor bleeding I'd had up in a doctor visit earlier this year, prompted by that post, and this week, after a biopsy, I found out I have cancer. It's early stage and the survival odds at 5 years are 99%. I have an oncologist appointment and we may have caught it early enough that surgery alone will be sufficient treatment (no radiation/chemo).

So that post may have saved my life and it may have made my treatment a lot easier too.

If you get into menopause and then start bleeding again, really, get your reproductive innards checked out. The life you save may be your own.

Hi, I am a full spectrum family doctor (GP who does all the things, old school country doctor, jack of all trades, etc) and I endorse this message.

90% of postmenopausal people with endometrial cancer have vaginal bleeding as their first symptom. Stage 1 endometrial cancer is 95% curable, and most endometrial cancers are diagnosed at stage 1 or 2 because of the bleeding. If you have reached menopause (no bleeding for 1 year) and have any bleeding at all, please go see your doctor. This has been a PSA.
