Trans women protesting outside Scottish Parliament.

I love it when trans women protest topless. If they're arrested, the state must admit they're women. If they aren't, it shows the glaring contradictions of labeling trans women as legally male. It helps their cause either way.

Divorce 🤝 gender transition = a big costly life decision with too much paperwork that conservatives say will cause the end of civilization & ruin your life but if you actually ask people who chose to do it, they'll tell you their only regret is that they didn't do it sooner

They’re not even related. Jays are a type of corvid, like crows and magpies, and Cardinals are a grosbeak.

my mum has severe knee problems and needs a replacement. Today she was told she's too fat to be operated on and the knee specialist suggested she gets a gastric band - which also involves surgery. So my mum was like first of all you didn't read my file because it explains that I'm not fat because I eat too much second of all you said it's impossible for me to get surgery and then suggested I get a surgery about it? He then asked her her weight and height, didn't believe her answer, and made her prove it to him because she "looks fatter than that". So she was like so you also just entirely based this on looks instead of actual numbers?

My mom went through something similar. She needed a knee replacement and her doctor wouldn’t okay it until she lost weight, which was difficult given the whole knee problem preventing her from walking thing. He told her she was too dangerous to operate on and that there were just too many risks.

My mom tried to lose weight in vain for months before she finally gave into my begging her to get a second opinion. The first doctor she saw next scheduled her for surgery the same day she met him. When my mom asked about the risk of operating on her he told her that there was some minor risks for complication and that all she would need to do to alleviate the risk was spend an extra night in the hospital so that they could keep a look out for any complications.

There were zero. There were also zero complications when she had her other knee done, her hip replaced and her gallbladder removed.

Almost like the first doctor was entirely full of shit and just trying to coerce his patient to lose weight by scaring her for fucking nothing, even when she was living day to day in excruciating pain and desperately needed a surgery.

it's a historic townhouse! new orleans famously floods and its gravesites suffer all kinds of turbulence! they literally did a whole documentary about this; they carbon dated the remains and they'd been there since at least the nineteen twenties, if not earlier. the running theory was that the neighborhood was built on an existing unmarked gravesite, or perhaps that the original owner ran a mortuary (because of the cremation oven). the vampire thing is a shtick. you don't have to like him or his music or his annoying habit of roping respected journalists into his over-the-top antics (although personally i think it's all delicious and his cover of concrete blonde's 'bloodletting' that they used in the doc is a must listen) but...you really think a man born in 1986 did this? be serious

"Immature people crave and demand moral certainty: This is bad, this is good. Kids and adolescents struggle to find a sure moral foothold in this bewildering world; they long to feel they’re on the winning side, or at least a member of the team. To them, heroic fantasy may offer a vision of moral clarity. Unfortunately, the pretended Battle Between (unquestioned) Good and (unexamined) Evil obscures instead of clarifying, serving as a mere excuse for violence — as brainless, useless, and base as aggressive war in the real world."

Ursula K Le Guin at it again, being right as always

hey sorry if this isnt true i forgot exactly where i read it but this person should be brutalised and subjected to some of the most horrific acts of cruelty humanity has ever seen. it might be nothing though i might have the people mixed up

wow i didn't know this. i always thought they should be unpersoned though. spreading this so that others can be informed + to protect minors

Damn, I already had a feeling about them since... I’m not sure when. Their fashion sense really threw me off and I hated their takes on video games. I’m glad that my impulse to find out their identity, uproot their career, and destroy their life was justified after all, at least based on what I can remember!

you want proof that it happened? well, check this out, after we filled their inbox with accusations, they didn't immediately roll out a full PR statement on why they're sorry for doing the things I said they did and how they'll do better in the future. they acted as though they had never even heard of any of the people or events involved, and they even got angry once I insisted they were actually the scum of the earth and deserved to be hunted down and shot for the rumours I kinda half heard about them. why would they double down like that if they WEREN'T guilty?

They turned off anonymous asks after posting responses to fifteen anons, which is good enough evidence for me that they know they have done indefensible things and are facilitating crime. If they were innocent they would take the abuse and respond to every accusation with a unique acknowledgement of every bad thought they have ever had and abject apologies for ever having dared to be on the internet, where countless people have been harmed by their 1,000-follower blog.

never heard of this person before, but all the previous posts must be right! people wouldn't try to mislead others on the internet, especially knowing how easy it is to start a dogpile!
