Nicht Mann zu sein, bedeutet in dieser Welt, dass vom Smartphone bis zum Sicherheitsgurt kein Gegenstand an deinen Körper angepasst ist, Medikamente nicht für deinen Körper getestet wurden, du für einen Teil deiner Arbeit kein und den anderen weniger Geld bekommst und am Ende ja nur "überreagierst".

weil die männers angeblich gerade zuhören. gewalt meint nicht nur brachiale physische. gewalt gegen frauen ist immer auch die unsichtbare, psychische, strukturelle.

'This Is Endometriosis’ just won a BAFTA - here's where to watch it - RUSSH ‘This Is Endometriosis’ has won a BAFTA, shining a global spotlight on the chronic condition. Here’s where to watch it in Australia.

A short film about endometriosis has won a BAFTA, bringing much needed visibility to the disabling condition.

Endometriosis and adenomyosis robbed me of years of my life.

Countless surgeries, blood transfusions and hospital stays.

Doctors saying it was “no big deal”.

It’s a very big deal:

"He wasn't actually arrested for--" WE KNOW. THEY ARE NEVER ARRESTED FOR SEX CRIMES. Society dngaf about protecting women, and women know that. We're just happy he was arrested at all

4 frame comic. A woman with a long purple scarf is waiting for the subway. a street journalist approaches her and asks :
miss! do you think
we're approaching a
moment when the public will
recognize that allowing
children to be transed
was a terrible idea?
She replies :
considering that with each
passing day, the public sees
how much of the anti-trans
movement was engineered by
the wealthy to fuel culture
war hate on the back of a
vulnerable community, I'd say
we owe massive apologies
to trans people.
just this week,
we learned that a decade ago,
epstein suggested using trans rights
as a wedge issue, and that jk
rowling's team was courting him.

we also learned that what we were
told about the closure of the tavi-
stock clinic, the only youth clinic
in the u.k. for gender-affirmative
care, was nothing but lies.
rowling's pal hilary cass
forced the clinic to close after
reports of 1000 complaints from
families. we learned this week
that it only received eight over
10 years, mostly about delays.

in the meantime, the health dep't
has been concealing trans
children suicide numbers, which
we now know rose dramatically
following the closure. 
The terrible idea was always to scapegoat trans kids.

A few days ago my friend lost his young daughter to a rare genetic condition. Because it’s uncommon capitalist research institutions don’t dedicate money or time to studying it even though a cure is possible

Please help honor her memory by voting for Batten Disease research to receive grant funding

4-panel Comic "Women in Science" by War and Peas. 1. Man in ancient clothes and wig enters the room. He says, "I've returned from my trip to the future!" 2. "Women are doing science!" 3. Another man answers, "But there's still structural inequality and sexism making it difficult for them?" 4. "YES!" "Thank God!"

H. Demanding to Take Down Words
As discussed above in part III.L, any member may demand to take down a member’s words on the grounds that the remarks are unparliamentary in violation of House Rule XVII clause 1, which establishes rules of decorum such as the requirement that remarks made by members in debate must be “confined to the question under debate” and avoid “personality.” This clause applies to personal remarks regarding the President, Vice President, and Members of Congress, but the Parliamentarians have not found it applicable to cabinet officials or other witnesses before committees. House Rules and Manual §§ 370-71. A demand to take down words is not in order if there has been intervening business between the allegedly offending remarks and the demand. House Practice, Consideration and Debate, § 28.

Fact Check: Did Karoline Leavitt say Trump ‘doesn’t care if you’re black, brown, yellow or normal’? Karoline Leavitt, known for forceful media exchanges, faced an online rumor claiming she said President Donald Trump is not racist

Wrong claim that already circulated once, back in December. news.meaww.com/fact-check-d...

I think often of the women in the Louis CK story—how they all left comedy and never went back, but he’s still going. It’s everywhere and it’s such a loss for them and for us—for things they’ll never make that we’ll never see.

*sigh* here we go again. Your phone is not listening to everything around you 24/7 for advertising purposes. *If* you have voice activation on for the assistant, the mic is listening for the activation phrase: the processing power for listening for a single specific phrase is much lower.

A black and white comic page. A person sits at the bottom of a whole, endlessly anxiety rambling to themself. A speech bubble yelling “HELP!” cuts through. The person stands up and peers out the hole, seeing a figure lying injured on the ground with people starting to gather around. The person says “Hold on, man! I got you!” Another person in the corner says “Y’all need water? Bandages?”

There are many reasons to help people. One that I think gets overlooked sometimes is: helping others often helps you. So if you feel like shit, don’t flagellate yourself in the dark. Leave your head a little. Extend some kindness. You can’t do everything, but you can do some things.

Hence some of the pitfalls of writing on the Internet, highly visible in e-mail, blogs, and responses to blogs. The mechanical ease and immediacy of electronic communication are deceptive. People write hurriedly, don't reread what they wrote, misread and are misread, get into quarrels, hurl insults, and use flame-throwers because they expect their writing to be understood as if they were talking.
It's childish to assume people will understand unexpressed meanings. It's dangerous to confuse self-expression with communication.

This is very good from @charalanahzard.bsky.social on X and how media have been reluctant to cover it. Mind boggling to me that the British government, MPs, councils,etc, still use the platform. Putting out policy announcements sandwiched between non-consensual porn imagery and racist abuse.

Menschen mit Depressionen können sich nicht „zusammenreißen“.

Wenn sie Dinge nicht erledigen, hat das nichts mit Faulheit zu tun.

„Melde dich, wenn du etwas brauchst!“ hilft ihnen nicht weiter. Sie werden sich nämlich nicht melden.

IN VALEN'S NAME, USE ALT TEXT FOR YOUR IMAGES.

You want to prove you're down for progressive causes? Do the most basic fucking thing ever and use alt-text. Also, use it to describe the image and provide context so that the people who rely on alt-text can experience your image as intended.
