Hi I reblog a lot of furry stuff and will provide occasional takes on whatever crosses my mind
Reblogs don't necessarily mean I fully endorse the reblogged artist and/or person, I can't fucking background check every single silly little fur creature and funny post that happens across my dashboard
That's it and if you are still ignoring my big question of "why are you here" then enjoy this mess
“If a society puts half its children into short skirts and warns them not to move in ways that reveal their panties, while putting the other half into jeans and overalls and encouraging them to climb trees, play ball, and participate in other vigorous outdoor games; if later, during adolescence, the children who have been wearing trousers are urged to “eat like growing boys,” while the children in skirts are warned to watch their weight and not get fat; if the half in jeans runs around in sneakers or boots, while the half in skirts totters about on spike heels, then these two groups of people will be biologically as well as socially different. Their muscles will be different, as will their reflexes, posture, arms, legs and feet, hand-eye coordination, and so on. Similarly, people who spend eight hours a day in an office working at a typewriter or a visual display terminal will be biologically different from those who work on construction jobs. There is no way to sort the biological and social components that produce these differences. We cannot sort nature from nurture when we confront group differences in societies in which people from different races, classes, and sexes do not have equal access to resources and power, and therefore live in different environments. Sex-typed generalizations, such as that men are heavier, taller, or stronger than women, obscure the diversity among women and among men and the extensive overlaps between them… Most women and men fall within the same range of heights, weights, and strengths, three variables that depend a great deal on how we have grown up and live. We all know that first-generation Americans, on average, are taller than their immigrant parents and that men who do physical labor, on average, are stronger than male college professors. But we forget to look for the obvious reasons for differences when confronted with assertions like ‘Men are stronger than women.’ We should be asking: ‘Which men?’ and ‘What do they do?’ There may be biologically based average differences between women and men, but these are interwoven with a host of social differences from which we cannot disentangle them.”

Yes.
Here, have a study (x) showing that mothers underestimate their daughter’s physical capacity from as young as 11 months old (though in reality it’s identical to that of their son’s at the same age). And if you think that parents acting on those expectations won’t alter their children’s development, then I have a sloped bridge to sell you.
reblog to kiss your friends cock, you know, like friends do
I've been iffy about posting this one, it's not at all like what I would prefer to make. So...obviously this isn't just a trans allegory. I mean I would love to be able to be a nightmarish eldritch creature of flesh and metal, but that's not the main point of these renderings.
I'm tired of insatiable greed dominating the world. I'm tired of being squeezed for more and more while making less and less. I'm tired of not even being able to help everyone I care about, let alone my broader community.
Imagine having an incomprehensible amount of wealth and choosing to increase it further instead of making lives better. I will never understand billionaires or our corporate overlords.
The machine will make this work.
We need real journalism and an independent press. Language matters.
I mean, this is the homepage of the English version of the "paper of record" in Spain:
And this is today's paper version headlines:
This is not a radical left paper, at all.
Mainstream media is already talking about the US like that.
creating a new OC. He's a doctor who treats weird kink furries. his bit is that every patient who comes into his office he has to figure out how to complete the checkup while working around some weird toon-logic contrivance. He's like the doctor house of kink because he's the only one in his field capable of getting results. He's massively overworked and he's been IP banned from the e621 forums.
His name is Doctor RJ Yiphman and he's one wrong move away from getting fired.
Doctor Yiphman treats more patients

"at least venezuela lost a dictator" "the good thing about trump's invasion" "maduro deserved it" oh my god some of you are dangerously susceptible to fascist propaganda.
unfriendly and honestly hostile reminder that trump isn't invading venezuela because maduro is a dictator, or because of drug cartels. he's doing it only and exclusively because they have desirable oil reserves and no other reason. reminder that venezuela is a comparatively poor country that will never financially recover from this. reminder that venezuelans are suffering with the bombing and the air strikes. reminder that trump did it to steal from them and no one did anything. reminder that this sets a dangerous precedent and now all trump has to do to invade another country is claim they're in a dictatorship. reminder that trump is a fascist dictator.
this will only be bad, for venezuelans and for all of latin america (and possibly the whole world) in the long run. trump did this not to help the venezuelans or their country, but to steal their petrol and get away with it. and he will. because that's what dictators do.
Also, let's remember that there is no proof he is a dictator at all.
Don't get me wrong, Maduro is a shit head. But there is no solid proof that he had actually tampered the last elections, the "proof" the venezuelan opposition pointed to was... weak at best. Which could be enough, I don't put tampering with elections below Maduro at all, but the fact the opposition have been crying wolf about pretty much every election him or Chavez have won, including a bunch of them where there was a strong presence of international observers (including US ex president Jimmy Carter at least once) that validated the elections as clean doesn't really help their case.
The best you can say is that Maduro had been accused of election tampering, but the fact his party actually lost the majority in the venezuelan parliament back in the 2015 parlamentarian elections doesn't seem to help the (continuous) claims of election tampering by the opposition.
I'm not sure if dictators lose elections like that.
A shit head? Terrible for Venezuela? Likely corrupt? Sure. A dictator? Citation needed
If you're in the US military or National Guard, and are given an illegal or unconstitutional order, the GI Rights hotline (1-877-447-4487) is there to help give you the support you need to do the right thing by refusing it. It would be good to think about this now before it becomes a live issue for you and it would be smart of you to memorize that number.
You can reblog this without your thoughts about the US Military, btw, that's allowed.
In fact: you SHOULD share it without your thoughts on the US Military. If someone in the military sees this number and is considering it, they already know. Just let them see the resource.

"Grok is undressing anyone, including minors"
Grok is the tool. X users are doing this. X users are requesting this and Grok engineers facilitated this. Both are liable for this.
Yes, precisely.
i’ve been crying laughing over this for the past 5 minutes
I know you’re not a guy anymore, but here’s a holiday gift of gym knowledge from the bros to the trans fellas
the half life of injectable testosterone in the body is between 1 and 4 days, depending on the ester form that it’s in.
this means that if a person is using test-based hormone therapy and they feel alternately hyped enough to smash their face through a wall and so depressed they want to dig a hole in the leaves and rot, it’s because the shots are too large and infrequent and it’s creating unnatural highs and intermittent crashes
bodybuilders who inject test do it, at minimum, on Monday-Wednesday-Friday, or just plain every other day (EOD). Some even recommend smaller doses on a daily schedule, although that means you’ve got to be very comfortable with needles.
I have no idea what a weekly dose for trans Test HRT is, but if someone is only injecting once a week it’s likely causing them unneeded turmoil. Splitting that weekly input into 3+ evenly spaced shots is going to result in a smoother experience.
I’m friends with an acute care mental health nurse, and she mentioned they’ve had a few trans guys come in talking about getting really low in between shots, so I asked how often it typically is, and she said weekly, which blew my mind.
The homies at the gym were all pretty shocked to hear that there are doctors dosing test at those intervals, so I thought I’d share the critical info.
YOOOO bro science in the service of transgendar DIY HRT! thanks for sharing. How interesting. This is what I loved about taking the gel -- you apply it every day, no random (and apparently unnecessary???) highs and lows!
