Periodic reminder that I block TRAs who come to my posts. I'm not here for your nonsense and I certainly don't come to your posts to harass you.
I also don't tag my posts because I have no desire to hear from y'all. Respect women's boundaries for a change and fuck off into the sun.
Spring ‘Magnolia Blossoms’ Stained Glass Window.
This Doonesbury abortion cartoon was originally written by Gary Trudeau in 2012, in response to a Texas law requiring women to have an ultrasound before an abortion. It was banned from many major newspapers, and they ran syndicated cartoons in its place.
Now seems like an appropriate time to bring these cartoons back, with the passing of Texas’ new law requiring the burial or cremation of miscarried or aborted fetal remains. I guess we’ll have to wait and see if Trudeau decides to write the sequel.

God. You’ll have to excuse me openly weeping atm. I remember being horrified when that law hit the books here.
I had no idea how much worse it would get in 10 year’s time.

when people bemoan the "falling birth rate" all i hear is someone who has very likely made a large part of their personality their Desire To Kill All Pedophiles being sad about a 20-year global decrease in child rape. sorry but you are not serious people to me.
like do you know why the birth rates have plummeted GLOBALLY since 2007? aggressive intervention against grown men impregnating children. literally, that is what it is. the birth rate decrease is attributed to teen pregnancy rates falling dramatically all around the world in the past two decades, and statistically, over half of all births to teen mothers (particularly those under 15) are fathered by men over 20. the falling birth rate is quite literally a reflection of a worldwide decrease in children being forced to carry an adult rapist's fetus to term. you will never convince me that this is a negative thing.
i think you should be suspicious of anyone that can't seem to explain their arguments in plain language. Even the most complex topics can be broken down and explained in accessible language. If there is an argument that is always couched in 500 obscure pieces of jargon or turns of phrase and words dug out of the farthest corners of a thesaurus, and the people arguing it seem incapable of talking about it in any other way, it might be because the obfuscation is the point, and they want you to assume you are out of your depth and that you should just trust them as the expert. When really, any real expert can (and will) explain the same concept in different ways to different audiences and should have no problem doing so.
JK Rowling is back at it again 💞

there is absolutely no social problem to which forcing women to be pregnant against their will is an acceptable response. that's the line sorry
women should lift weights because it prevents osteoporosis in old age and makes you a more capable person in everyday life please shut up about butts and waists and hourglasses i'm going to fucking kill

genuine question from someone who would rather chew their arm off than go to a public gym, and also doesnt have a lot of money: how do you safely get into strength training? are there youtube channels, apps (android), etc anyone recommends that makes it approachable and don't lean into diet culture / body shaming?
also the biggest thing that keeps me from working out is that I already have joint and spinal issues and moving the wrong way can fuck up a knee or a shoulder or my spine for days. I really don't want to injure myself, and have unwittingly done so before. resources that are extremely clear on exactly how to move and offer gentler / alternative ways to move for people with limited range are vital.
Okay, so this may not technically be strength training, but muscles are dumber than bricks and cannot tell the difference between your own bodyweight and actual weights.
So, may I recommend:
Hey everyone! My name is Hampton and my brand is Hybrid Calisthenics. You can find me by that name pretty much everywhere on social media.
He runs a YouTube channel where he goes over how to work your way up to more complex exercises (for instance, his pull-ups videos start with using a door jamb and moving your weight back and forth) so it's good for easing yourself into things.
You also don't have to fork out for expensive weights and such if you don't want to/can't. Substitute with stuff you either already have at home or can get from the supermarket and build up the weight you can exercise with. 500 gram cans of butter beans then 750 gram bottles of pasta sauce. 1 litre drink bottle then your 1.5 litre milk bottle. 3 litre bulk-buy bottle of laundry detergent. Etc. One of my dogs weighs 13 kilos and I pick her up on the regular (to her delight). One weighs 16 kg and I pick him up too (to his consternation and mild disapproval). You don't have to fit out some fancy home gym before you can start strength training.
I second Hybrid Calisthenics, that's the program I use. It's run by one guy who's taken it upon himself to make exercising more accessible and it's completely free! Each exercise has different variations based on your ability and each variation is further divided into different levels of difficulty so you can work up to where you want to be. If you can't do a single push up for example then this program will help you work up to the point where you can, and if you're a master of push ups then there are more advanced body weight exercises you can tackle so you can keep moving forward in your training without stagnating. The routine offers a full body workout with absolutely no equipment required for the beginning levels. The only reason you would need to buy anything is if you want to work up to a full pull up, at which point you would need actual pull up rings
Here's his actual website which I feel is easier to navigate than the YouTube channel on its own and organizes things in a way that's easy to understand. He explains everything you need to know about the routine and each individual exercise has both a text description and a video tutorial

this is the kind of crashout you usually only see on love island
I think a lot of what pro-AI people are really wanting is stuff that already exists but they don't know it's out there like
can't format a work email? templates
don't know how to write a resume? templates
writing a thank you card or a condolences card or a wedding invitation? templates templates templates
not sure how to format your citations in MLA or whatever format? citationmachine.net
summary of something you're reading for school/work? cliffsnotes.com
recipe based on ingredients in your fridge? whatsintherefrigerator.com
there's a million more like, guys, we don't need AI, we never needed generative AI
literally everything ai* can do already exists out there you're just too lazy to fucking look for it. like why search for when can just ask for? sure at the cost of a half-gallon of water dumped out for every query and my electricity bill going up and a little bit of below-poverty-wage labor, fuck you.
[* eta obvs i mean bullshit emperor has no clothes generative ai like chatgpt and other slop generators, not the kind of ai we've been using for like 15 years]
Besides templates (which are great):
Practice! You might be scared about your first one or ten emails, but you won't reach that level of confidence unless you write that first ten!
Also people need to be more understanding about phrasing issues etc. okay. Not everyone is trained in everything. People need to let others know it's okay to sound a little weird and offer advice when something really is wrong. Human weird is so much better than ai.
