It’s wild to me to see transvestigator conspiracy theories online that could be so easily explained by natural human variation. That woman has a deep voice? Yeah, sometimes they do. A woman has broad shoulders?? Maybe she plays rugby or hits the gym a fuckton. There’s a “bulge” in her tight pants?? Maybe her vulva is just fat. All the “markers” of trans woman that transvestigators use to harass any woman aren’t even things unique to trans women.
Transphobes talk about women like they’re Barbies. Have you forgotten the existence of cameltoe? Tiny boobs? Narrow hips? Broad shoulders? Why do you think choirs have altos and not just sopranos? What do you think female athletes look like? Do you think a woman that lifts weights and plays contact sports will look like a 90s supermodel? At what point in history did we collectively forget that human bodies have natural variability???
I have been so utterly transfixed by this phrase lately.
I find myself saying this out lout whenever I feel stumped by any conversation. Any time a conversation gets kinda stupid and people start saying unnecessary things I immediately have a strong compulsion to say “uh… white person here. i jack off to goombas from the super mario bros games”
Look, I dont know a lot about saints and Catholicism, but I know St. Agatha is always depicted with her breasts on a plate, and that’s sure something
Just a few more. This is a big trend.
Things I learned from the comments
She’s a patron saint of rape and abuse victims
She took a vow a chastity
A low born guy demanded her to be with him and she turned him down
For this she was imprisoned and tortured. This is how she lost her breasts (details not required)
She was repeatedly raped.
The Catholic Church regards her as a virgin for her peity despite the rape. (No matter your views on virginity this is a pretty interesting statement)
She was sentenced to death to burn at the stake but was saved by an earthquake
In her holiday people make titty cupcakes
I didn’t know she existed and now I think she’s a pretty rad woman. I would hesitate calling her a protofeminist as some often do with amazing women in history but she is pretty cool. Also she’s still very relevant today as women are still treated the way she was.
other things i learned: damn historic artists drew a woman with her own tits on a plate with Cleavage and prominent nip nops???
When is titty cupcake day?
Today!
Get yourself a titty cupcake tomorrow
why did historic artists draw a woman with her own tits on a plate with Cleavage and prominent nip nops?
because boobs are cool, because bad women’s anatomy, or other?
The *fancy* reason is because she was healed by Saint Peter when she went to heaven/the art is meant to depict her soul, which would be unblemished by her torture.
But also probably because boobs are cool, at least for some of these.

genuinely fucked up that if i want to interact with someone online i have to say words and have a conversation instead of just mashing my face against them like a cat

Alright, i wanted to make a post about what’s going on. I wasn’t able to stay in Denmark (since it was over the 180 day period by the time they were deciding) and left February 1st
Luckily i was able to stay with @fishandchips321 and @icannotgetoverbirds in the UK so i didn’t have to go back to the US where there’s a nonzero chance that within the three months needed to reset the “90 days out of 180” rule for my stay that it would become impossible for me to come back due to the potential for my passport getting confiscated.
The trip itself cost over $1000 because of how short notice it was. Thanks to all of you for sending what you could so there was enough there between that and us needing to use my card for food and unexpected expenses at the end of the month.
We need to use my account to save up for the official residence permit because the cost of it exceeds what she is allowed to save (let alone the fact she STILL HASN’T BEEN PAID AS OF WRITING THIS).
After converting to the currency my gfm reads it it’s $1214. Which is a lot more than what i have left. Hopefully this time the dust will actually settle and i’ll be able to stay.
Another necessary expense is that i need to order my medicine. Luckily it’s something i can get without a prescription at the strength i need. I haven’t been able to get in touch with my GP since being out of the US since my cell service doesn’t usually work and their online portal seems to have wiped my login, which is another $83-$112 (depending on if i want to carry over a year’s supply or not). I like the reduced frequency of being spontaneously lightheadedvand dizzy it’s given, and considering all the stuff going on it would be less than ideal for that to repeat. It doesn’t have the same effect if i split the pills, i tried rationing them when i knew this was coming up while in the US and it didn’t work
I broke a nail. From it grew a little tree sap. I kept breaking my nails until I had grown a forest. I broke all of my nails into tiny pieces and then realized I was naked. I woke up, confused.
The dreamer is destined to create a great empire through conquest. Or do a lot of writing and/or coding.
My manager was in the break room with me and she said ‘I don’t ever remember oranges being THIS hard to peel’ and I just responded 'they’re making them harder to peel’ without thinking and she looked and me and said. Why?
americans pleeease. please kill elon musk 🙏🙏🥺😔😩🙏 americans! please. Please !!! kill elon musk. don’t you remember gun.. ? bang bang ? your favorite game..?

does anyone have that reddit exchange screenshot where someone is like “what colour is this mouse??” and posts a mouse who is like in some sort of purple world with confetti around it and the top comment is like “it would be easier to tell if your mouse wasn’t at the club” . i keep thinking about & referencing mouse at the club and i cant find it
She actually did transition after being in the military and became a nurse
“As far back as I can remember I always felt like a girl”
This came out in the nov 1 of 1977. But apparently transgender-ism is a recent invention accord to conservatives. If you have a friend or relative that repeats this horse shit show them this article.
A proper money laundering scheme should be a business which is in no way profitable, run by the brother or cousin of a mass murderer who’s really passionate about making a specific kind of food or something but has no idea how prices or advertising work, frequented by folks who you should absolutely never make eye contact with!
I was a limbless body floating in the vacuum of space for what felt like years. All of a sudden, a rotting corpse with a black cat’s head called to me by the name Phobos.
It spoke to me in a language I didn’t understand, but I agreed to whatever it said.
I was then sealed within a planet and spent hundreds of years experiencing life through the eyes and ears of the inhabitants (namely one girl who I later found out looks suspiciously like Aphrodite) of this planet.
Years pass and a black shadow begins to envelop the whole planet, exposing me at the very center. It looked at me with sockets where eyes should be, and warned me that I’ll end up back where I started.
“porn brain” is a far right conspiracy theory, misogyny in porn is a result of structural societal misogyny and not the cause of it, the way to help sex workers is decriminalization and worker’s rights, banning sexual expression is fascist. i will not be taking questions at the time.
u just gonna admit u have erectile dysfunction like that
absolutely scalding insult from a person who gets into super mario shipping discourse
this probably hasn’t made the news in other countries - huge mining company Rio Tinto managed to lose this little capsule (8 x 6 mm) somewhere in West Australia:
it’s caesium-137, the stuff that has made Chernobyl uninhabitable, and you don’t want to be standing within 5-10 meters of it, because it’s blasting out beta and gamma rays. you REALLY don’t want to pick it up, because it’ll give you radiation burns.
what’s nuts is it seems to have somehow escaped from its “secure” container and fallen out of a bolt hole while being transported, and then nobody noticed for TWO WEEKS.
anyway there are fire fighters on their sixth day of scouring 1,400 km (!) of desert road right now, but it’s so small that it may never be found (I think the detection radius with the equipment they’re using is maybe 20m). it’s so small that it could have stuck in a car’s tire treads, or been picked up by an unfortunate bird or other wildlife. it has a half-life of 30 years, which means it’ll be dangerously radioactive for centuries.
Due to budget cuts, we are eliminating the benefit of the doubt. If it looks like a fascist dog whistle, then it just fucking is. We regret the delusions of normalcy that this may have removed for you, but believe this will lead to a stronger country.
I did not read these tags as “my road of good intentions end where roads always lead” the exclusion of the word “such” may not seem important, however it changed the answer from “hell” to “Rome”
Me and Greg talk about this in the newest episode of Red Connections but the reason nobody will ever “take one for the team” and do something that directly threatens capitalist hegemony is because the only thing that leftist organizing in America is doing is working on improving people’s quality of life and playing damage control. We all have too much to lose, union jobs to fight for, etc. — why would we throw that all away going to jail for sabotaging a weapons factory or something? I am by no means saying that purposefully making people’s lives worse on purpose so they have less to live for is a viable strategy either (that is where we’re headed regardless, though!). The left, the fucking DSA and PSL and SRA or whatever need to pool their resources together on SOME kind of a limited united front that provides legal defense and solidarity for everyone who takes actions that risks their careers by putting them at odds with capital. People need to be allowed to openly oppose the state and still have a LIFE to fall back on rather than just fucking dying alone in a blaze of glory. Housing, armed protection from fascists, shelter from the state, anything at all to give people an alternative way of having some semblance of a life after putting themselves at odds with the status quo. “Building power” and creating a parallel structure at odds with capitalist society is not this incrementalist getting socialists on the city council bullshit that we’ve already been trying to do for decades. Dual power means moving as a bloc capable of taking action and sheltering ourselves from retaliation by the state and capital - we can’t rely on the bravery of individuals who are willing to throw their lives away setting themselves on fire or assassinating a CEO, we need to provide people with a livable alternative to the system they put themselves in opposition to.
It makes no sense that “over the counter” refers to drugs that you DON’T need a prescription for. This has always tripped me up because…. prescriptions are kept behind the counter and the pharmacist has to hand them OVER the counter to you, you can’t just grab them. While non-prescription drugs you just take from the shelf. God I hate English expressions
‘Irredeemable media’ is such a funny concept to me because it’s never used for stuff like Birth of a Nation or A Serbian Film. It’s always The Owl House or My Hero Academia because these people only watch things for children and can’t stand any conflict more complex than Super Mario Brothers.

believe it or not some female characters don’t have to be mothers. some female characters shouldn’t be mothers. some female characters have a history of expressed disinterest in being mothers. some female characters would have to do a complete 180 in characterization in order to be mothers.
This is one of those works of art that sticks with you forever. My partner and I first saw this comic years ago and quote the “okay, but like…” in our dogs’ voice several times a week.
I do love that every dog owner who has ever seen this just immediately goes “using that forever”
i have a folder in my computer called “just in case” where i have important documents saved, like the constitution (since trump REMOVED IT from whitehouse.gov) and books that might get banned
im obviously going to add more, if anyone has any reccomendations please let me know. just wanted to share because i think its a good idea going into these next 4+ years.
EDIT i’ve also added a clip of elon doing the nazi salute because its taken down a lot of places and likely will be removed everywhere. as well as screenshots of what happened when you searched “presidents in order” (it did not show biden) and “president from 2020-2024” (it showed trump) but have since been fixed
surprised that the name truly has never charted in america. maybe it sounds too much like trudy (still very dated) but i think it has a nice sound to it and it’s basically one of those unorthodox virtue names that are surging lately
other miscellaneous Blank Name Takes: we’ve always thought theodora is a shockingly solid unorthodox gender neutral name in terms of giving it to a baby, inasmuch as they could pick out nicknames within any part of the spectrum when they grew up (theo, teddy, dora)
