I wish I could make white people(and not just white Americans) understand how diverse the pre-columbian Americas were. The history, religion, culture, politics was at least as complex as Europe's. There was the full gamut of religions, from monotheists to animists to ancestral religions. There were city building empires, village farmers, nomadic traders, and so many other ways to live. This is all just based on what we know, the fragments left behind and the stories of survivors of an apocalyptic plague. All this before the most extended campaign of genocide in history was waged in an attempt to wipe out those survivors.

Over 500 years spent trying to cut down a whole trunk of human culture.

Do you understand how much poorer our whole species is because of it? Can you imagine where art, religion, and science would be if we still had these vast bodies of knowledge? The stain of the colonial project will never be fully washed clean. We owe more than just the land to those we stole from. We owe them a whole future, a future that could have been brighter for all of us. If only greed and fear weren't allowed to rule this land.

The sooner the AI bubble pops, the better it will be for humanity. if every industry is using AI tools to keep records and fill out paperwork, and using AI tools to make decisions based on those records and paperwork, every industry is going to start caving in from the inside.

in the early 21st-century, the “small business” was a sort of small temple run by a local warlord. Patrons could purchase small trinkets and be granted absolution for the sins of their empire. This was called “ethical consumption.”

"... A common misconception about engaging in sex with or as trans, nonbinary⁠, or otherwise gender⁠-nonconforming people is that there is a “right” and a “wrong” way to touch each other. Some people may assume that the way you identify is a good enough signal about how you like to be treated and touched, a sentiment that could not be farther from the truth. Just like everyone you meet has their own interests and perspective on the world outside of sex, our sexual⁠ desires are something that, to know, we all need to be asked and ask others. Contrary to what many of us have heard from TV and movies about what makes “good sex,” there is actually no one right way to have it! For more information on what it actually means to be “good in bed,” I recommend Heather Corinna’s “What Makes Someone Good in Bed?”

I noticed that you specifically asked about non-dysphoria-risky activity. Unfortunately, when engaging sexually with others or even just ourselves, there’s really no way to get around the possibility of emotions coming up. Instead of trying to outrun dysphoria, think instead about nurturing trusting sexual environments. Allowing the intimacy of trust to act as a safety net helps to avoid discomfort, center pleasure, and prepare for dysphoria if it enters the room."

the christian veneration of the lamb has always been terrifying to me in ways i can’t explain

[rimonoroni2]

here’s this figure that is vulnerable and easily abused and what’s admirable about it is that it doesn’t fight back and it doesn’t try to defend itself and it’s suffering is noble because it just sits there and takes it. pain is beautiful when you surrender to pain, suffering is godly when you don’t question or try to protect yourself and survival is ugly… like it is just me or is anybody else’s fucking skin crawling rn!!

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.
