there is an employment crisis among trans women and there always has been, but good luck getting people to see it
Still living this life after almost 8 months. A professional I know who works almost exclusively with trans people said almost all of them are unemployed.

I'm basically off the political grid so to speak, but I've lost friends for my "vote Dems as triage" stance.
it is absolutely a thing that happens that if a trans person is trying to be a regular person who belongs to the normal political party that supports their rights, members of The Community will "call them in" and tell them that their insufficient radicalism should embarass them

Ya’ll had more angry words for Kanye West than all these monsters in the Epstein Files. Get angrier. The President and his elite cabal of friends are all pedophiles and taking all of our money and future without remorse or consequences.

"The Archspire looked over Palmer, Antarctica: the very model of a modern major capital city."

Why did it take me a week to write this?

this is comically evil. brazenly anti-social. just absolute black-pilled nihilism. we will not have a republic, we will not be free, until we regulate these companies to the point where — at a bare minimum — they're too afraid to put stuff like this down on paper.

Starbucks is bringing back tiers to its loyalty program as part of a bid to entice consumers to visit more often. That’s cool, but I wish they’d bring back brass tokens and a row of Skee-ball machines.

Drop MAGA. I hope the poison of the President's crimes soil everyone in power who supported him.

Their souls are already withered.

I know it's cliche but I'm proud that America has found the stupidest way to destroy itself.

We found a goal and we're all in with it!

I mean, America could have had a good society if we had kept our vision forward rather than back.

Thing is, at least, we still could. Humanity at large.

This Skeletor has been memed 100 times but not until I was replicating him did I notice that in a stroke of either incompetence or genius the original renderer of this image decided to make hiseye socket and nose hole just be the same hole. But it still reads right if you don’t think about it.

I have a community on Antarctica and the north slope of Alaska. It is cold but not as cold as now.

There's two main reasons there's a segment of society against UBI

1. THOSE people, CERTAIN people will get FREE THINGS!!!! THAT I AM PAYING FOR!!!!

This thinking is wrong and bad. If one truly believes that...more money is being spent on all the other bullshit that doesn't help.

2. Divorce.
