When trans people engage with their bullshit "journalism," it doesn't help. It doesn't fix the entrenched transopbhia. So the policy should be: DO NOT ENGAGE WITH THE NEW YORK TIMES.

I'm thinking of this:

I understand why Strangio did the interview. But we see the end result: once again, NYT harmed trans communities by legitimizing and laundering transphobia.

NYT has been harming the trans community for YEARS and have never, not once, demonstrated awareness of this fact.

i make a lot of jokes about the male loneliness crisis and please believe me it's not because i dislike men on an individual or class basis it's just that i dislike revanchist social movements that exploit human compassion to reify gendered hierarchy, rape culture and transphobia

When somebody is road-raging me, I fervently wish that they suddenly have catastrophic diarrhea in their car, and that they're on the way to someplace really important like a job interview or meeting their girlfriend's parents for the first time.

It helps me cope while driving 😅

Let's make it a LAW that all congresspeople, including Mike-ass Johnson -- who also never sees or hears anything! -- and "Concerned" Collins WATCH THE NEWS DAILY. So they CANNOT say "I didn't see that" !! 🤬

God damn these motherf*ckers, I have a FULL TIME JOB but yet SOMEHOW I am able to consume the news, including watching Trump use the r-slur.

THIS IS COLLINS' JOB and yet "I didn't see that" WHAT THE F*CK?

"...coo of the birds..." "little baby bird..." "now I thought of the birds"

Does she know there is more than one word to describe little guys with beaks and feathers?

This is SUCH BAD WRITING 🤐

Yes because it's so hard to find patterns written for 48 or 50 sts, and it's not always possible to adjust patterns down, either.

Anyway that little shortie sock is TOO cute.

Oh that yarn!!!! So gorgeous.

And I'm with you with the mini feet -- or the fact that handknit socks are often big. I knit loose which doesn't help. I now knit sock-weight yarn with size 0 needles for socks. I can then knit patterns where the smallest size is 56 sts, and they'll be snug enough.

You've got some really big "we gotta ban trans people from bathrooms so that sexual-predator-men don't put on wigs and go rape girls in public toilets" energy 🙄

Oh TELL me about it.

I am sewing some cute messenger bags as gifts for Christmas. I'm literally scouring secondhand clothing stores looking for clothes I can take apart for fabric to sew the bags 😐

We have a fabric/crafts resale shop in my community (luckily!) but it didn't have what I needed.

The laughter after he says that is so disgusting. They're ghouls.

It's so crazy-making, watching them try to turn the US into a christian nation when all of them are this fucking evil 😐

You spent all your "complain about a president's mental decline" points on Joe Biden -- thereby enabling Trump's second term! -- so you need to shut the f*ck up forever 🤡

Within just a few hours of getting this feedback, the student *emailed the fucking governor*. Her mom is all over Xitter posting like mad. I mean, are you new here? This coordinated RW attack is a pattern, and if you aren't paying attention to this context, I can't take you seriously. Do better.

Ooooohhh

My project is fiction but I am an academic so ... YES!
