some of yall need to go back to like preschool level 'girls can do anything boys can do' feminism bc we are regressing into feminine = frivolous = weak = nurturing and masculine = power = force = competence at the speed of fucking light

bath salt. That's the post. Reblog if bath salt.

I love her hair

Everything is fine and normal! especially this guy called Joel who has a very nice and normal farm where all of the animals are all alive and happy and normal!!

good use for those coins judas was paid with maybe

if I hear one more person call reproductive care "women's health" I'm gonna riot. trans men, nonbinary people, and intersex people fucking exist.

doubly funny that I saw a compilation of all the corporate accounts like "aw thanks elmo, we're doing well" meanwhile all the flesh and blood real human people are extremely not okay

Okay but Elmo had actually the best and sweetest response to all this trauma dumping:

And then all the other Sesame Street character accounts joined in:

And now I’m thinking maybe we’re gonna be okay… 💗

(Comment compilation from this Twitter)

I kinda feel for the poor person running Elmo's Twitter.

"So, boss... I may have messed up."

"What did you do, Ray?"

"Well, I made a post for Elmo saying 'Hi, how's everybody doing?'"

"I mean, that's kind of what we pay you for."

"Yeah, but.... <sigh> it turns out pretty much everyone is hanging on by a thread, badly enough that they needed to tell Elmo."

"Oh."

"God help me, boss, I think Elmo needs to be there for them."

"Get the others."

this is the energy that jim henson would be proud of.

and important addition

a trans guy: points out how whenever he wants to dress feminine he knows that he wouldnt pass and will be misgendered by strangers

every second comment:

the user is @ newtisafag on tiktok, he had to make another post with context how he usually doesnt dress hyper feminine but knows that when he does and goes out with his friends, he will be misgendered by people who dont know that he is trans. which is a very valid critic on how we judge gender of strangers based only on appearance but sadly some people decided to act disgusting in the comments

can tboys just complain without everyone acting like we want the workd to grovel at our feet. i wanna be a lil femme dude but ppl take it to heavy on the femme and thats upsetting. people are allowed to express their upset if you dont care or dont like that theyre upset just mive on. its the internet you can so easily just remove that from your sight and mind. but people wont do that bc all they wanna do is victim blame trans people over stupid shit.

recently my friend's comics professor told her that it's acceptable to use gen AI for script-writing but not for art, since a machine can't generate meaningful artistic work. meanwhile, my sister's screenwriting professor said that they can use gen AI for concept art and visualization, but that it won't be able to generate a script that's any good. and at my job, it seems like each department says that AI can be useful in every field except the one that they know best.

It's only ever the jobs we're unfamiliar with that we assume can be replaced with automation. The more attuned we are with certain processes, crafts, and occupations, the more we realize that gen AI will never be able to provide a suitable replacement. The case for its existence lies on our ignorance of the work and skill required to do everything we don't.

You know, as the concept of “zombifying fungi” becomes more and more popular, I notice it still referred to everywhere as like a “brain parasite.” So I guess a lot of people overlooked or forgot how in 2019 it was discovered that cordyceps and other similar fungal parasites leave the brain and nervous system completely untouched. They only control the muscles. They use chemical signals to make the muscles flex in real time where they want to go :)

It’s funny how many people are replying “but that’s worse!” like you didn’t know that’s exactly why I put a smiley

"gender is a social construct": fairly easy for leftists to understand

"race is a social construct": a bit harder to swallow for some but still reasonable

"mental illness is a social construct": this one gets you hate mail in your inbox

the effects and symptoms of mental illness do in fact have material consequences but "disorders" as clinical categories are not real in any metaphysical sense; they are terms created for the purpose of describing lived experiences. you can't see or hold onto a person's depression any more than you can hold their gender in your hands. western psychology may have legal definitions of and ramifications for being diagnosed with illnesses but they do not physically exist outside of that context. any opposition to behaviors like self-diagnosis is therefore invalid when viewed in this structural context

I HATE THE PSYCHIATRY SYSTEM!!!!

"Mental asylums" are prisons for those who dare to be different

The psychiatry system is the conforming police of capitalist and statist society

"Mental disorders" are labels for those who don't conform to society's moralism, people who the state thinks shouldn't be seen or heard, those who get put into God awful conditions, drugged, and beaten for being different, those who the state and capitalism left behind, left behind and give no resources or makes those resources so hard to obtain there's no point in trying

if we wish for a more egalitarian and equal society we must provide mental health care (THAT ACTUALLY CARES ABOUT HELPING PEOPLE) freely, that is how we prevent harm, that is how we make the quality of life better, that is how we we can stop moralistic imprisonment

“No homo” cries the team at the dig site. The head archaeologist sinks to his knees, sobbing. He has dedicated his entire career to the pursuit of homo habilis, an important part of the hominid evolutionary line. All his work led up to this archaeological dig site. But now, his whole life has been for nothing. There is no homo….there is only Australopithecus.

I read this to a group of archaeologists and they completely lost their shit
