Oh hey I think I remember her from the other site! Glad to see she’s here. Also part of the first handful of trans people I followed.

Yeah I didn’t transition so I can pretend to be something I’m not. For those who have other priorities and are able and willing to go stealth, Godspeed.

Yeah, even if I could hide, I wouldn’t. Being visibly trans is my purpose. If I can show even one other person that it’s possible, everything else is worth it.

From @parkermolloy.com: "Trans people built careers, communities, and advocacy on the promise that being seen was the first step to being accepted. But visibility, it turns out, can be a trap."
How trans visibility became a trap
People who have documented their lives online are discovering the dark side of digital permanence.

13,000 reps, if we’re being true to the original spirit of the Constitution. They can meet at Capital One Arena.

Geez, the video is so much worse than just reading the interview. Yeah, fuck Keira Knightley.

The thing that gets me about actors responding like this whenever they’re asking about JKR is that they always say “we need to learn to agree to disagree ^_^” as if trans people are the ones leading the campaign, when we’re just trying to live our lives while JKR posts about trans hate 24/7

The Day After Tomorrow is thoroughly mid, but this scene where it has become apparent the world is hosed and Bilbo delivers the line “Save as many as you can” is pretty perfect. I think about that line often these days. m.youtube.com/watch?v=_XFZ...

lets say a wizard has cursed you with a lot of money. you are going to become permanently brain damaged simply by being in possession of so much money. the only way out of it is to spend a lot of money on something ridiculous and not at all useful

what would you buy to break the curse?

liberalism has no solutions, only empty rhetoric and a policy of adopting the ways and means of their nominal opponents until they themselves are an ineffective shadow of the monsters currently stripping the american carcass. it will not save you. it will not save us.

OU should’ve held out for more money instead of complying immediately; if you’re going to sell me out at least make a better deal. My employer is run by fools AND bigots.
