I started following this girl and her whole dash ended up these. And her last post. I can’t even say words. Anons took her life. If that okay with you, then carry on with your day. If you agree this is unacceptable and okay, then reblog and spread the word. What you say can actually change a persons life! So help out
I don’t care if this makes your dash look ‘ugly’, no matter what type of blog you have you should reblog it.
If you can’t reblog this, I pity you as a human being.
;~;
This is honestly soul crushing. People who send hate like this have dog shit for souls.
I don’t like posting more than art here, but everyone deserves to see this.
Does anyone know what happened to her? Is she alright?
I hope that she’s alright and doing well now, nobody deserves shit like that
Reblog if you are an asexual positive blog, believe asexuals exist, and are willing and able to create a safe space for your asexual friends
As an Asexual myself, YES
My ass in this comic would walk over from the LGBT+ side and carry that person over to where I was on the LGBT+ side because damnit y’all belong with us
she’s mentally ill in a lot of other ways and we don’t want to diminish that but also being a boy was literally killing her and she killed her boy-self back

I have missed this post so much! Let’s all celebrate Chicken Nugget!
do you guys realize that,,,, chicken nugget is one of those butterflies that is perfectly half female and half male?? nugget’s left wing is typical of a female spice bush swallowtail and the right wing is typical of a male
a gender role smashing icon
I wondered why the wings looked different
Incredible
intersex icon
He’s a bilateral gnandromorph!!
WE STAN?????
chicken nugget said intersex rights
This whole post is wonderful, but I think a lot of people don’t realise just how rare bilateral gynandromorphs are. Research has shown that only approximately 1 in 6,000 butterflies is a bilateral gynandromorph! So thanks so much @oddity-txt for sharing this wonderful being with us!
Google Groups is dropping support for Usenet in February of 2024.
September 1993 is finally, finally coming to an end.
September 1993 actually came to an end in the early 00s, when broadband started replacing dial-up, and the broadband providers stopped offering Usenet access. (This was almost certainly related to the fact that, with the expanded availability of broadband, Usenet was being flooded with binaries, making the maintenance of an NNTP server more expensive, and kind of hogging the bandwidth.)
Usenet will continue past 2024, if only for the binaries.
I had this idea for a looping animation in which a single dot has a pretty long loop, but the animation as a whole is much shorter. Because of the repetition this animation is only 1 second long!
THIS GIF IS ONE SECOND LONG
tried to follow the path of the dot, got caught in a loop
Wow the grad student situation at Temple is actually insane. A microcosm of what’s wrong with academia and American healthcare and workers rights as a whole.
Fun fact: “socialism” originally got popularized because the OG socialists wanted a secular term; “communism” already existed as a term, but it was heavily associated with religious movements (Thomas Müntzer or Gerrard Winstanley and the like)
Oh wow, they hate their supposed paradise In real life? They must be pretty damn annoyed if they actually get into heaven.
As a scientist I can confirm we need a much larger sample size on this matter
i learned this very recently but technically ectopic pregnancy can occur in CIS men. yep you heard me.
it would require a fertilized egg to be injected into a cis man, which would not only be a waste of hundreds of thousands of dollars on an intentionally unviable pregnancy that would cause life threatening complications for that person— but like it IS possible.
remember kids, quoting “basic biology” is just admitting that you know piss all!
Basic biology?
Wait until more advanced biology blows your mind!
that’s way too fuckin good to be leaving that in the tags
The entire point of a strike is to cost the company money without interfering with their revenue streams striking workers have no leverage this in practice negates the right to strike entirely basically and makes above ground unions pointless.
The Union Solidarity Coalition has been formed by WGA members to start helping those in other unions affected by the strike. Look this over and pass it on…
UPS has reached an agreement with the Teamsters union to equip its iconic brown delivery trucks with air conditioning for the first time for new units.
The agreement, announced by UPS on Tuesday, comes as the delivery giant and the International Brotherhood of Teamsters negotiate the terms of a new contract for more than 330,000 U.S. employees. (source)
Unions work, unionize.
THEY DIDN’T HAVE AC?!
Nope! And the UPS headquarters is in the south, right in Atlanta! They fucking knew how hot it was, and still wouldn’t spend the money to give their workers basic fucking accommodations for making deliveries!
Make more demands of your employers! They won’t give you jack shit if you don’t!
Good God this seems like it could kill somebody. Imagine driving around for an entire work shift in the Atlanta heat.
Jsyk USPS (post office) drivers also don’t have AC in the LLVs. So. You know. That’s something to be aware of. I delivered for just under a year there and got the worst of both summer and winter in Georgia without AC or effective heat.
I dunno I mean I knew a lot of Americans were against it but I assumed they were all elitist right wing weirdos.
What’s the mainstream left wing position then if it’s not socialism?
Oh
Oh no
Your first warning sign should have been when they called the Bismark Model of healthcare, literally named after the nationalist monarchist and noble statesman who invented it, far left.
I don’t know how to explain to people that, in any other country, Biden would be a conservative and somehow most Americans have been convinced he’s a commie.
The horrors of realizing that the American Far Right is further right than you thought
The horrors of realizing that America’s “left” is your “far right” and America’s “far left” is your “center” and centrist Americans believe their “far left” is no better than their “far right” because they believe in horseshoe theory.
I like how it’s described as a union could “cripple American Capitalism” when more precisely it’s just that a union would be so powerful as to force WalMart (or any other company) to pay their workers like human beings. That’s not going to break Walmart. They’ll barely notice.
They’ve successfully convinced us that the unions are the greedy monsters. For so many years, the companies have painted unions as “we want you to pay janitors three million dollars a year and if you don’t we’ll set your stores on fire”.
But it’s more like “We want you to take an almost imperceptible fraction of your bountiful profits and use it to make your employees’ live marginally better, and maybe give them medical benefits, y’know, so they don’t die”.
Big companies did not stop hiring ten year olds to work in coal mines because they just woke up one day and said “my god, we’re monsters”. They did it because their workers stood together and said “really, enough of this crap”.
Companies are not going to give people raises unless it’s economically necessary that they do so. Anything they can do to lower their expenses, and raise their profits, they are going to do. And no one person can stop them.
But thousands of people, millions of people? Better chances.
I am dead serious: If you are a Walmart employee, at any level and in any store — like if you are a high school kid with a part time job stocking shelves — message me any question you have about unions. Like ask me “What’s a union” if you want. I will explain it to you.
I am a grievance chair for a white collar union whose workplace only unionized within the last five years and whose management fought as every step of the way, but in the end we fucking won. It can be done, and I can tell you how.
Just another reminder that Walmart Germany was a spectacular fail because of ver.di (which is a national service trade union that has it’s control over almost all trade and service companies in Germany) among other things.
Like, ver.di essentially came up to the CEO of Walmart Germany and was like “Hi, welcome, we wish you the best and that we can work together well :)” and the dude was like “hahaha no” and tried to pull the american concept here so ver.di pulled out a list of all the breaches of german law that Walmart was doing (underpaying workers, trying to avoid paying health care by using part-timers, trying to be open for more than 80 hours per week, firing people on short notice without warning or exit payments, etc) and long story short, they got some massive hefty fines for it. They also set up a list of demands for the workers and organized national strikes to push them through, making the employees of 85 hypermarkets neatly stand in front of the store doors with signs, whistles and chants (and certainly not the “Wallmart! Wallmart!” chant). In the end, that plus other things caused them to bail after 9 years with a gigantic loss (almost a billion just from sales) from one of the best retail markets in the world.
So all those issues like “no healthcare” or “work full-time and need food stamps” or “work on sundays and holidays” and shit? Unions are there to set their foot down against that for you. They are there to keep you safe from the corps wrath while fighting for your rights.
Cause if you, an individual, complain, they just fire you and laugh about it. A union is a collection of hundreds up to MILLIONS of people, supported by lawyers, going against employers for you.
Guys, Elon released his stupid AI on Twitter and the first thing his idiot devotees did was ask it if trans women are really women and they are losing it over getting the correct answer back.
Now it’s recounting Elon’s lies for people too
This may be the only AI bot I’ve ever liked.
It’s roasting him now.
“You’re the human equivalent to a Tesla on autopilot: you think you’re going places, but you’re just a danger to everyone around you” is to fucking funny to be ai generated. That shit has got to be either lifted wholesale from somewhere else or this bitch is alive
