i think more robots should be disabled actually. robots whose bodies keep falling apart and need much more consistent repairs. robots whose bodily upkeep is hard and laborious and exhausting. robots who physically cant do things without help from another individual. robots who are imperfect and dont fit the bill of a flawless machine. i want more of this waiter please bring me more disabled robots

adulthood notes:

The Rodeo Rule: you only have to do it for the first time once.

The Rohan Rule: if you are at a social function full of new people and you want to be liked, find someone doing important work like setup or food prep and offer to help.

The Tutorial Mode Rule: to navigate an unfamiliar situation where you fear you will mess up an interaction, preface the interaction by mentioning that you've never done this before, and let them know if you have a specific concern or question.

The Rocket Science Rule: most new things you want to try seem very complicated but are simple when taken step by step.

The [X] Will Remember That Rule: if you need to make small talk with the same person on a regular basis, try to save one fact or current event in their life from a given conversation and bring it up next time you talk.

The Cool Binder Rule: by wearing clothes and accessories that are to your taste instead of trying to blend in, people will be more likely to compliment you and show interest in you as a person.

affirmations they will not kill me at work today. it is not in my job description to get killed. if they did kill me at work that would be weird and probably not worth it for them

It can be fun to feel exceptional—to be the loophole woman, to have a whole power thing, to be an honorary man. But if you are the exception that proves the rule, and the rule is that women are inferior, you haven’t made any progress.

"You know what's harder than Getting Better? Living Like That" is just the thesis for my whole shit going on right now honestly. You know what's harder than doing my physical therapy? Hurting All The Time. You know what's harder than addressing my gender dysphoria? Hurting All The Time

I'm Doing The Hard Thing and it's *easier* than how I was living before. If you make yourself feel better you will have more energy to spend on Getting Better. Nice inch nails - the upward spiral. Crawl out of your grave Thursday

I know this is meant to be funny but it actually makes such a good point about how ADHD and executive dysfunction can impact people in really major ways, including financially

Hear that guys: there is not a single justifiable reason for women and girls to have any private space away from males, even in their own home. Oh an also, the comfort of women should not be prioritized over the dignity and liberation of males who want to be women. Apparently male dignity and liberation can be accessed via public restroom, and splitting rent on a 2 bedroom apartment. Incredible.

“Comfort” as if trans women aren’t going into bathrooms and assaulting women. We aren’t mad because we’re uncomfortable, we’re mad because we’re unsafe.

i think this is a great post showcasing how men abuse fancy language to do what they want.

notice in the second screenshot: the key words are “dignity,” “liberation,” and “fundamental.”

these words would be considered tier two words (general academic words.) these are not words that are typically used in everyday speech (tier one.)

since these are not tier one words, let’s define them:

dignity: the state or quality of being worthy of honor or respect.

liberation: the act of setting someone free from imprisonment, slavery, or oppression; release.

(oppression: prolonged cruel or unjust punishment.)

fundamental: forming a necessary base or core; of central importance.

now that we have these definitions on hand, it’s easy to see that these words were used incorrectly.

“AFAB-only spaces and bathroom bills” were not formed (fundamental point) on women’s comfort. women fighting to keep their own sex-segregated spaces does not mean trans-women are being dishonored or disrespected (dignity.) no one has taken their sex-segregated bathroom/space away (liberation/oppression.)

but do you see how much thinking this takes? most people don’t have the time nor the means to do a deep dive like this. that’s why it works so well.

anyway. this is your reminder to think for yourself.
