“You’re so brave for existing and being openly trans.”
No I’m not. I’m actually a conflict averse, lazy, coward.
I just seem brave to you because you are somehow even more pathetic than me.
programming language idea: you can only declare functions. actually calling one is an undefined operation
🧵 Emily Thornberry just named who pushed Labour into its anti-trans position: Morgan McSweeney.
But here's what she didn't say: McSweeney also drove the antisemitism campaign that sidelined Corbyn.
Same guy. Both agendas.
defending art's right to exist, especially nsfw art, inherenetly involves you having to allow art you don't like or even think is abhorrent or reprehensible to exist. you do not have to pretend to like it or engage with it, but you need to let it exist. you give fascists an inch they take a mile.
@annehealthcare.bsky.social have produced a very useful guide about what to do if your GP stops your hormones prescription or refuses care. Remember you have rights and options, and they have legal, ethical and professional obligations.
A good chunk of them are rebranding as transexual or becoming trans medicalist thinking that it will change anything. It's not going to work. They want you hating yourself and dividing the community so that were easier to oppress. It's the respectability trap all over again.
It's truly disturbing watching trans people, mostly trans women, who are still regularly on X get their brains cooked in real time and start internalizing anti trans positions and try to police the community or give into far right framings. You are not immune from the propaganda.

"With agents, does it become practical to have large codebases that can be read like a narrative, whose prose is kept in sync with changes to the code by tireless machines?"

NYT, WaPo, several others are gleefully wanting to see the trans death camps.
Because “if it bleeds it leads” and what a story it would be. Plus the senior editors at “the Grey Lady” and Bezos at WaPo don’t view trans people as humans anyway.
They push BS in the name of equality.
there was a new study published *today* in Nature showing that state-level anti-trans laws increase suicide among trans kids up to 72%.
when we say that the New York Times (and other rags of equal repute) is killing us, that's because *IT IS LITERALLY KILLING US*
This is cruel and unusual punishment.
bluesky being immediately negatively polarized into going with skeets because we were asked not to was the first sign that we were going to make it as a posting site
every true posting forum declares forever war against the mods
MIKU day!
Also, the main SXSW venue is the convention center which is also covered by the bathroom ban. Trans people cannot safely attend this conference or event. But because 20 states have done this, people stopped giving a shit. It's just normal for them, not even an afterthought.
So please, if you can, I’d love to have this thread list pro-Trans everything. Creators, craftspeople, writers, artists, activists…if you or someone you know deserves some celebrating, bring it the fuck on, okay?
Post links if you can.
Buy stuff if you can.
They hate when people stand up.
Thank you! ☺️
Anime illustrators, who is accepting commissions atm...
I think this might work. I was honest about my knowledge (zero) and goals (routine for mental health, improve strength for long-term physical viability) and they were very constructive about them.
Whoa. This is big. "The U.S. Navy has refused near-daily requests from the shipping industry for military escorts through the Strait of Hormuz since the start of the war on Iran, saying the risk of attacks is too high for now." www.reuters.com/world/middle...
Thrilled my article on the contributions of female writers to the #Wuxia genre (published recently in ArtReview's magagzine) is now on their website. The work of women writers and gender rep has been a major part of my research, which I hope to put in the upcoming book! artreview.com/there-is-no-...
Yes, totally. Water Margin's an important stage but it’s one branch, it'd say a lot of wuxia is like Robin Hood, social justice legends is what these stories are very much about!
Lyotard's "little girl Marx and old man Marx" as pugilistic anime characters travelling across a Victorian Europe that even JoJo fans would question the accuracy of as they fight alongside the proletariat with blades, mecha, and increasingly baroque typewriters.
Big thanks to my induction trainer for saying nice things about my "ok so I used to be fit..." condition lol.
A growing ecosystem of influencers, activists, and political operatives has discovered that attacking transgender people can be extremely profitable

I have just been to the gym for the first time in my life. Yay!
counterpoint: Karl Marx would have written 5000 words in praise of the fanciest coffee shit imaginable.
I kid you not after being pressed multiple times he eventually settles on "Holocaust documentaries are DEI because it's a gender based story"
