the funniest consequence of that halimede rp twitter account breaking containment to the point that most people don't know she's a fictional character from a visual novel is that nobody knows that her joker origin story is fumbling this bad bitch
6'1 btw
One like nitpick thing that drives me crazy is when people call Blue Whales the largest whales or the largest living mammals or some shit like that
Because yes that is true. But when you frame it like that you are completely disregarding the absolutely batshit reality that Blue Whales are the largest animals that have ever existed on earth through the entire history of the planet and they are alive right now today
going to start using this for every dipshit post i see on here
behold: the extended edition
i added 24 fucking squares and i COULD HAVE KEPT GOING
actually i kind of dont care how anatomically identical post-op women are to cisfems i do not see how any of that is even slightly relevant to any values I consider worth appealing to
when terves call a trans woman's neovagina a wound they are calling trans women an unnatural aberration, and by extension reifying medical ideas around biological sex (and the grotesque practices used to enforce them on unconsenting infants, which terves seem to fail to object to). It is simply not effective to argue that the results of the surgery are adequately similar to a "biological womans" "natural" state of affairs.
The current mood today
if I see one more "why age verification is bad" post that doesn't even bother to mention that locking young people out of huge sections of the public sphere - literally the stated goal and primary impact of this shit - is wrong in and of itself I will simply start hitting people with bricks
yes yes biometric data privacy blah blah adults can hypothetically by harmed by this too. what about the immediate and deliberate and not at all hypothetical harm to youth. why are you acting like a potential data leak about what your face looks like, which if it ever happened would at least be generally recognised as a problem, is a more serious issue than cutting millions of people off from information and community and public expression which is happening right now in the open with large scale support
it's got the stench of fucking "banned books week" on it. thousands of adults congratulating themselves for reading books literally no one is trying to stop them from reading while doing nothing to improve access for the young people who are the ones actually having those books made off-limits to them.
S. snuffleupagus, a newly described species of fish, is named after the beloved Sesame Street character, Mr. Snuffleupagus, to which it bear
SNUFFLEUPAGUS REAL
Fantastic article!! The guys looking for it were fish researchers who saw it one time, knew instantly it was an undescribed species, and then tried for nearly 20 years to find and document it!
It's a type of ghost pipefish, related to seahorses, and it floats around coral reefs looking like a piece of algae and hunting unsuspecting prey
They are, of course, named after Snuffleufagus from Sesame Street!
Later on it the project, they got citizen science involved, and people across the Pacific started reporting sightings of snuffy fish from all over!
Hooray for science and hooray for S. snuffleufagus !
Y'know, it really disgusts me when transandrodorks see posts about trans women being denied access to women's shelters and respond with, "Well, they could just go to a men's shelter. The real issue is that both trans men and trans women have to misgender ourselves to access shelter."
That completely misses the point.
Even in a world where people let people into shelters according to their gender identities-- as a trans man, I would not feel safe in a men's shelter. Cis men are responsible for a disproportionate amount of physical, emotional, and sexual violence against trans people, including trans men. Being correctly gendered does not magically make that environment safe.
If I absolutely had to seek emergency shelter, I at least have a place I could realistically go without being surrounded by the demographic most likely to target me: a women's shelter, even if that would require being misgendered.
Trans women don't have that option. A men's shelter is not simply "the equivalent in reverse." It's an environment where they're both women and trans in an environment surrounded by their worst oppressors, making them especially vulnerable to harassment and violence. And in many cases, they may not even be admitted.
People keep turning this into a conversation about misgendering when the issue is material safety. The difference is that trans men may have a safer emergency option, even if it's degrading and affirming neither our identity nor our dignity. Trans women are left with no safe option at all.
the thing about people who dismiss any kind of trans subtext about a character in favour of "what if [she's] just a feminine boy" is that not only is it vehemently transmisogynistic but it's also just fucking boring. you're just choosing to interpret the text in the most uninteresting way possible and Also you look like an idiot
there are ppl on bsky getting mad at this because i didn't specify Transfem Subtext and i didn't talk about men as well . the transmisogyny of it all
do people read before they add shit like this im just wondering
Trans men will see a post complaining about people refusing to engage with the idea that a character can be a trans woman and refuse to engage with the idea that a character can be a trans woman.
myellow everyone I know we're all poor but my schizophrenic, midfunctioning/relatively severely autistic tranny ass is moving countries to be with my Canadian tranny wife. my gf only makes disability which is getting reduced $200 CAD soon and I am too dysfunctional to work, so I need help covering food and transportation and getting all my things thousands of miles to our apartment and such. I would not like to have to resort to the Tim Hortons Dumpster™ for every meal.
I do art and poetry and fursuit parts and kandi and all that good stuff if you're interested: check my pinned post for any details
here's my kofi or $app or throne ( ◜‿◝ )♡

I feel that the Norwegian debate sphere's current discussion of the mass privacy violations committed by Oslo University Hospital's trans clinic is sort of missing the forest for the trees when they softball it like "Well, we can't do illegal research just because this is an important issue"
Cause like
I've read the publications that they committed these ethics violations for. I know what they "researched." They committed a large-scale hate crime, and their finding was that a lot of trans youth have mental health problems.
That's it.
We already fucking knew that. YOU COMMITTED A HATE CRIME WITH A QUAD-DIGIT NUMBER OF VICTIMS TO MAKE A COMPLETELY BANAL OBSERVATION THAT'S ALREADY STATED IN CLINICAL GUIDELINES. NEVER WORK IN HEALTHCARE AGAIN YOU SHITS.
You know that whatever character did those problematic things isn't like. Real, right?
You are aware that a fictional character is just a rhetorical construct designed to fulfill a narrative/thematic purpose right? That their actions are written by an author who wants to use them to explore complex ideas and moral gray areas within the safe confines of fiction right? That they aren't a real person who has killed real people right?
God I really hate that one post going around of that one "transfemmasc" who is "both a trans woman and trans man" being a huge transmisogynist.
I don't imagine anyone following me needs this to be explained to them, but I need to just make this post explaining this or I'm going to yell it directly at a stranger on the internet, and I'm trying to cut down on that. Not very successfully, I admit, but gotta start somewhere.
Trans woman is not a separate gender from women as a whole. Trans women and cis women are the same gender. Trans is an adjective that we use as shorthand for "my sexgender assignment differs from the gender with which I move through the world". This is why twerfs say "transwoman" as one word with no space- because they're trying to imply that we're actually a wholly separate thing from cis women. You can be a man and a woman simultaneously, but you can't be a trans man and trans woman simultaneously because that's simply not how transness, sexgender assignment, or transition work. I can imagine some well meaning people not understanding these things and thinking this describes them, but a tme person claiming that it is both of those things simultaneously and consequently trying to claim epistemic authority to shout down tma people kind of gives the game away on why this term and these ideas ACTUALLY exist
Now's the time to move
Okay so you need to:
go to discord support ( https://support.discord.com )
sign in or sign up (you do not, and imo should not, use the name and email you use for discord proper. this is a different account; if you've got Firefox, you can use an email relay mask very easily, and the email will end up in your inbox but the site won't know your email from it)
"Submit a request" (at the top)
fill all the dropdowns (I did "Help & Support" -> "Technical Support" -> "Account Settings" -> "[OS type"). it won't let you proceed until you do
Subject line: something about age verification
description box: keep it civil, but be clear. you don't like this, you're not participating, and you're not giving them your money anymore (whether you had nitro or not is irrelevant, remember that you didn't use your actual discord login to get here and they have no way to verify).
some reasons possibly worth mentioning: the insecurity of databases (Discord's had multiple leaks; databases being hacked isn't possible to prevent afaik, it's a matter of mitigation), the dangers of putting one's govt id on such a database, the technical problems people are already experiencing where it's already been established, how it will disrupt communities
be very clear that this is going to cost them money. "I won't use your service anymore" is a common threat ("I'm never shopping here again!") - you need to make them feel that they are losing money just by considering it, and it will get much worse if it's implemented.
If someone has a better method, please lmk.
Transgender woman faces two felony charges after drawing a firearm during an altercation.
A Wyoming transgender woman is facing two felony charges after drawing a firearm during an altercation she says began with anti-LGBTQ+ and a
Ríhanna Kelver, a bartender and trans rights advocate in Laramie, has been charged with aggravated assault and possession of a deadly weapon with unlawful intent after a 13 September 2025 confrontation outside the Crowbar & Grill, whereshe worked. Kelver could be sentenced to up to 15 years in prison if convicted on both charges.
Kelver says one man in a group of men across the street from her started shouting homophobic and transphobic insults at her before the man allegedly shoved her to the ground in a downtown crosswalk, as reported by The Laramie Reporter.
There's more, as it pertains to Black trans people's right to self-defence:
Despite Wyoming’s “Stand Your Ground” statute, which allows people to use reasonable force in moments of self defense, Kelver faces up to 15 years in prison for both charges, as well as up to $11,000 in fines, per Cowboy State Daily. Kelver faces an additional year and $1,000 fine for a charge of interference with a peace officer. [...]
As pointed out by Slate, self-defense laws are often put into question when people from marginalized communities, especially trans people, use them, including Cece McDonald, a Black trans woman who served time in a men’s prison for defending her friends during a racist and transphobic attack. Ky Peterson, a Black trans man from Georgia, was also arrested and imprisoned for killing his rapist in self-defense.
I wrote a short explanatory piece on how gun control (in the USA, specifically) has always been a tool of oppressors against marginalized folks. You can find it on Tumblr here. Kelver needs assistance with her legal fees fighting these charges. Her crowdfunding sites keep being removed so here's her Venmo:
Please help her.
When Scott Durham pushed Ríhanna Kelver to the ground, she drew a gun in response. Kelver, a trans woman now facing two felony charges, said
Hope you don't mind me adding to this, i live in laramie and ive known ríhanna personally for several years and this incident has been so difficult for her, and additionally the attack exacerbated health issues for her.
a local reporter posted this article this morning that delves into her attacker's affiliation with the fascist patriot front org and the fact that since he moved to laramie in 2023 there has been a significant uptick in hateful activity and propaganda being spread throughout the town. this man was prevented from walking at his high school graduation by his own admission due to his racist, queerphobic, and antisemetic behavior.
one of the things that has been infuriating to me is that her attacker is not the one pressing charges. not the literal man she pulled a gun on, it is the police who are threatening her with 15 years in prison.
please help ríhanna if you can, she doesn't deserve this and it is depicting the increasing danger for trans women and other queer people in this city and state as a whole.
