They are advertising Eugenics on the New York Subway

[queer-as-city-folk]

This is from a company called MyNucleus that sells specialized IVF to let parents know ahead of time what traits their baby will possess in order to pick and choose what traits their baby will have.

Advertised traits they show off in their website include Autism and IQ, as well as Eye and Hair color

They advertise this saying you could ensure your baby doesn't have a cancer gene,

But it's about making sure you don't have a disabled child

[queer-as-city-folk]

Oh, I just saw a different ad from this subway campaign, and it's way worse than I thought

THAT'S LITERAL NAZI SHIT

[queer-as-city-folk]

Like genuinely the New York MTA should never have allowed this blatantly ableist racist eugenics company to advertise on the subway, and I want to know how much the MTA was paid to harass disabled New Yorkers.

You haven't posted since 2024 so sorry to bother but I am also a dobro conceived baby and I wonder how do "you search for your DNA?"is there any ethical site where you can search up ?again sorry to bother and hope you make it through your journey !

Hello! No bother!

The best thing to do is put your dna on AncestryDNA. This is how I found my donor and a whole slew of half siblings. I definitely understand being wary of doing so— not everyone trusts dna sites— but honestly there really is no better way.

Whatever you do, don’t use the Donor Sibling Registry if you haven’t already. The creator of the site gets profit and barely helps DCP at all.

I’m always open to questions so don’t hesitate! Best of luck!

how many times do you think at chb that someone was dating an unclaimed kid/two unclaimed kids were dating and then got claimed and ending up being siblings bc it definitely happened before. this is the real reason percy made the gods claim their kids actually

The universally shared worst nightmare of the donor conceived.

[chthosis]

yes I am an only child. yes I have 14 siblings. yes two them are named Benjamin

[anniemartini]

[chthosis]

I am once again thinking about the parallell experiences I've had as a donor conceived person and demigods in percy jackson

[theowlseye-deactivated20240403]

As a 20-something woman, I get a lot of targeted ads for egg donation and my god do they really make something as serious as selling your genetic material to potentially make a human person who may one day grow up to want to meet you after years of feeling lost and without an identity seem like a fun thing to do for vacation money

[autisticarachnid]

anyways meeting my donor/biological father in person was such an absolutely amazing experience. he was just as kind and genuine as he has been in zoom calls, with a good sense of humor and such a genuine eagerness to learn about me, and all my half siblings too. i’ve dreamed of meeting him my whole life and it was well worth it ❤️

- i also got to meet two new half siblings, and see my sister kaely again in person. i went to the beach with them and i can hardly remember a happier day <33

ooomg do you remember me we were created in the same unethical lab! yeah i was like 2 green tubes down from you! i knew you looked familiar

[unknown-donation]

Bro where are all my half siblings taking DNA tests bc they’re bored in 2020?

[unknown-donation]

It’s been over 2 years and we STILL haven’t gotten any more in the sibs group. Bit of a bummer imo. I know I shouldn’t be rooting for hella halfs, but come onnnnn. I think it’d be neat to have more than 11.

“The less you eat, drink, buy books, go to the theatre or to balls, or to the pub, and the less you think, love, theorize, sing, paint, fence, etc., the more you will be able to save and the greater will become your treasure which neither moth nor rust will corrupt—your capital. The less you are, the less you express your life, the more you have, the greater is your alienated life and the greater is the saving of your alienated being.” ― Karl Marx

Weird that I just realized my cousin and a nephew I didn't know I had until 1.5 years ago are both graduating high school this year

[unknown-donation]

Sibs #8 and #9 have been found. There are now 10 of us and I officially have as many sibs as one of my moms. ✌🏼

[unknown-donation]

@spacelesbianne: I have around 9-10 siblings from what I gathered, but only in contact with 3!

We’re now up to 12. About 6-8 of us interact (two of the guys came to a meet up but they’re hardly active in the group chat). Do the 4 of you chat regularly? Me and 2 of my half sisters are have our own separate group chat and talk a bit more regularly lol.

This is the most useful thing I’ve ever reblogged.

[danwasonfireonce]

i used to think when people said my cousin twice removed that their cousin must’ve did some fucked up shit to get kicked out of the family twice

[emeraldmercury]

Oh so THAT’S what “twice removed” means…
