This is such an easily checkable obvious lie. Come on, stop believing everything you read.

Falling for obvious click bait makes you sound like a boomer.

Gawwwd, the scene where mid fight there are unsecured wrenches floating around was so beautifully tense.

Nooooooo! The free market hates regulation.

But, loves… banning? Wait, that can’t be right…

Well the answer is a deceptively simple “it all depends on the person”. The line for when it crosses over into dysphoria isn’t a universal one. Really the only way you would know if you upset him is if he told you. So if he hasn’t ever said anything to this effect, don’t overthink it. It’s a common idiom.

The good rule of thumb is “would I be making a genitals comment to a cis person in this same situation?”. Lots of guys will make dick jokes, but how often do those same guys ask each other the medical history of their junk? Not often I’d imagine, and the times that would happen would be for a specific reason.

Might be safe to err on not making references to the genitals they were born with, but everyone different. As a trans woman I will happily use my vestigial teeny tiny penis as a punchline if I know I am among friends. I’d just never presume to make that joke about another trans woman.

It’s all hypocritical anyways, Trump has a whole goddamn military parade for his stupid BS birthday. There are no consequences or standards, just shitty people being shit to each other.

Woke up next to my wife.

Tbh, I do that a lot but it’s still the best!

He says there’s “convincing “ evidence for its existence.

Big if true. He should send that to you instead of making memes.

Ty for this.

As a negative control, they also prepared an identical sealed tray containing only a wet sponge and the biosensor, but no meat. They observed that the biosensors in the pork and mutton trays turned bright yellow after 24 hours, while the one in the beef tray took 36 hours. In contrast, the control biosensor showed no detectable change.

That’s so cool, meat is still gross, but this is unambiguously a fantastic thing for humanity. If it’s actually used, I’d have to imagine the less reliable yet ass covering legal expiration date sticker will always be cheaper. Hope this becomes the new mandated standard, innovations are meaningless in the face of uncaring capitalistism.

Orson is so frustrating. Speaker for the Dead is a wonderful book about not judging other cultures, their practices or desires. Things that may seem shocking to you personally, are normal and celebrated by others.

And it’s written by a bigot. Like dude, have you even read your own book?

It’s a far better Ghostbusters movie than the last two garbage ones that were put out

💯

As a fan of the books, I was initially pretty upset with some of the changes, but I’m glad I stuck with it. The show is it’s own thing that goes to some fascinating places.

I near exclusively take bubble baths. Some nice epsom salt, soft music, chamomile tea. It’s the best!

You should try it, maybe you’d be less of a judgey sour puss.

Perhaps in a purely academic limbo of examining the writing techniques, but that’s not the world any of us actually live our lives. “Death of the Author” is a cop out, especially when the author still lives.

Fundamentally I won’t ever be able to pick up my teenage favorite Sandman again without seeing the parallels between Neil and Morpheus rape, entrapment and abuse of women in their lives. My own personal emotional connection to any of his character, worlds or stories is irrevocably shattered. It sucks but that’s just where we are now.

Neil fuckin Gaiman.

The man monster went from my favorite author to a name that elicits rage and disgust.

Idk, I’m kinda pissed to find out that apparently there was 12 of em.

😒

I’m deeply sorry you had that experience. That has got to be deeply traumatic and I wouldn’t wish that on anyone. Thank you for what you do. Be gentle with your self.

Kid Rock is the least surprising headliner. Everything about this is trashy, racist BS.

So I’m going to come at this from a different perspective because I’ve put a lot of thought in to this topic in other ways. I’m vegan, meaning I do not buy, consume or use any animal products, which obviously includes leather or fur. However since I am not financially supporting those industries by paying for those products and the perpetuation of animal abuse practices, I consider it moral for me to buy those items 2nd hand.

However I do not, for two big reasons:

1. Ew. It’s literally skin. That’s so gross. I don’t want to touch leather, let alone wear it.
2. The perception of those viewing me, I don’t want to be seen as a person that pays for fur and leather. Wearing an item is tacit endorsement of the item to everyone who views you, strangers included.

So to bring it back around, yes you can thrift fast fashion ethically. So long as you understand that anyone who recognize it as fast fashion, will reasonably think you buy fast fashion and support the industry. Up to you if that’s something you are comfortable with it.
