Yet another new study debunked the basis for the anti-trans sports bans. It was never about sports but for creating legal avenues for exclusion and abjection. This is one of the largest analyses ever conducted, involving 52 studies and 6,485 trans people. Read the study here.
post so nice had to reblog it twice and force it down everyone's throats
At minimum about 4.5 thousand people liked this without reblogging it.
We gotta fix that.
Weird Fantasy (1950) #18 written by Al Feldstein and drawn by Joe Orlando, with editor Bill Gaines
So he said it can't be a Black. So I said, "For God's sakes, Judge Murphy, that's the whole point of the Goddamn story!" So he said, "No, it can't be a Black". Bill just called him up and raised the roof, and finally they said, "Well, you gotta take the perspiration off". I had the stars glistening in the perspiration on his Black skin. Bill said, "Fuck you", and he hung up.

Just to add context for those not aware of the impact of this story.
The reason it was so important for narrative purposes, was that the plot concerns the visit of the Astronaut, in his completely opaque spacesuit, to a planet populated entirely by self-aware robots (originally from Earth) who have built their own society and are petitioning to be allowed to interact with Earth again as equals.
They have a democratic government and free choice of careers etc. as the orange robot serving as guide tells the Astronaut.
The Astronaut notices that there are two different types of robot on this world; the orange ones, who are in charge, gifted access to all information and facilities. and the blue robots, who are seen as more limited in function, have less access to information and resources, and are not allowed positions of power or as wide a choice of employment opportunities. Even transportation is segregated.
The Astronaut investigates further and discovers that the blue and orange robots are actually structurally identical, there is absolutely no difference between their potential or capabilities, and it is only because the orange robots are instructed by their Educator system to consider themselves superior, that the difference exists.
The Astronaut tells the robots they are not ready for re-alignment with Earth, until they come to terms with their own unfairness, and how Earth had had to deal with this issue themselves. When that time comes, the robots will be able to ally with Earth.
Then he leaves in his spaceship, and it's only in that one final panel that we see the Astronaut is black.
Not subtle, nor should it be, but for 1950 this was a breathtakingly powerful statement, perhaps the first of it's kind in the genre.
The black character was not a caricature, or comedy relief, he was a main character in his own right, a human who "simply" was black.
Ok, but this story is sadly revolutionary even now. That is not just a human who happens to be black, as far as every other character in this story is concerned this is the most important, maybe even the only human they ever see, who happens to be black.
As depressing as that is, but a black person just casually representing the entirety of humanity is a breathtakingly powerfull statement even today, a quarter of a century later.
I don't trust anyone. I'm a bad ass lone wolf *eats food someone else grew* *crosses bridge someone else designed and trusts it not to fall* *crosses street in front of 70000lb vehicle cuz there's white lines on the ground telling it to yield*
Minding your own business and some fucking scarab just rolls a big ball of shit over you

This is how I feel about Joshua Trees. They and avocado trees produce fruit meant to be eaten and dispersed by giant ground sloths. Without them, the Joshua Trees' range has shrunk by 90%.
(my own photos)
Not only they, but the entire Mojave ecosystem is still struggling to adapt since the loss of ground sloth dung. their chief fertilizer.
Many, many trees and plants in the Americas have widely-spaced, extremely long thorns that do nothing to discourage deer eating their leaves, but would've penetrated the fur of ground sloths and mammoths. Likewise, if you've observed a tree that drops baseball or softball-sized fruit which lies on the ground and rots, like Osage Oranges, which were great for playing catch at my school, chances are they were ground sloth or mammoth chow.
You can read about various orphaned plants and trees missing their megafauna in this poignant post:
Trees that once depended on animals like the wooly mammoth for survival have managed to adapt and survive in the modern world.

First quote from the linked article. Found it poetic.
nothing will ever be funnier to me than the 30-50 feral hogs joke phase, I think about it at least once a week

oh, hello! i haven't seen anyone else in forever, are you lost? it's getting late, do you need somewhere to stay the night? i can show you to my house, we can be friends!
YESSS BOTH OF YOU GET ME. YES. i love love love love loveeee how people are noticing and mentioning the small details i feel like im getting a good grade in art because people are Understanding the symbolism and meanings holy fuckkk. yesssss. and the bow is newly selected too. the item name is onscreen. it was just selected. the blend of old terrain bugs despite new terrain gen features... .yesss
(^ from a previous reblog in a different chain)
good morning its the time where i point out more tags pointing out details in the piece! roses don't exist anymore and yet he's offering you one, and has another in his hand. the farlands are behind him and there's a sand pyramid in the water. and bingo! the farlands dont exist in the same version as salmon (or granite/diorite and geodes)!
( @leopardmask-ao3 and @candlenav for your tags)
and its also artist commentary time (which @silly-fox-and-its-stuffies wanted)! this piece has a lot of small things and details. there's a few very minor coloring errors, but they're intentional to reference the old bug where white lines sometimes poked through block edges (which were often mistaken for eyes and is where the white eyes myth (herobrine's origin) came from), herobrine is crouching, a universal sign of piece in the game, and he's offering the player a rose. a flower which doesn't exist in the version we're in - there's amethyst and dripstone, new coal ore and redstone torch textures, something roses never overlapped with. and speaking of version discreppencies, the farlands are right infront of the player and are where herobrine came from. in the fog and sky in the background, it evening and turning night quickly, so he's offering the player somewhere safe to stay for the night (because in the versions he came around the night was extremely hard to survive for players with no base to stay in). the hunger bar is shaking. the player has a bed, two enchanted tools (the iron pickaxe is supposed to have efficiency 2, and the bow is supposed to have power 3), some food, cobblestone and five diamonds in their hotbar. the bow is newly selected. the item text just popped up, the player is aiming at herobrine.
and also, there's a cat and a couriway reference in the sandstone as easter eggs :) and a cornflower in the background
i dont know how 2 make prints im sorry
Tumblr, I propose a battle of wits!
I have put Iocaine powder in one of these two goblets. You choose, then we both drink.
If you choose the more popular option you are poisoned, and must log off and do something you are putting off. If you choose otherwise, you may reblog and keep scrolling!
