I might be gay but at least I’m not straight

While it's true all work is reduced to simple human labor etc it's pretty ridiculous to pretend that the ability for some people working made-up bullshit jobs to sit in the comfort of their homes during a pandemic while other people have to collect garbage or work as farm labor with basically no protections whatsoever, has no political effects on each groups political goals and outlooks and has no effect on organizing is ridiculous

@velexiraptor Gotta make that paninis

ah yes the two genders, binary and nonbinary

[BOOSTS: yes plz]

re-boosting but also re-posting the above cos i originally had “3.5"” and not “2.5"”

if you don’t have an old enclosure, but *do* have the means during these lean times to spare a coffee or two,

it can get me closer to affording this new enclosure, possibly the last one still being made/sold with FW800:

Quarantine's making people really grapple with themselves. By 2021 there's gonna be no cis left.

I have a simple flowchart to understand American politics and government. it is entirely linear, so it should be easy to understand

there exists a social problem
⬇️
it gets ignored by anyone with power
⬇️
it gets worse
⬇️
someone figures out how to make money from making the problem worse
⬇️
a brain genius figures out a way to fuck the numbers so that it looks like the problem isn't as bad as it is. this is adopted as the official measure. people still lie and say that this number is better than it is.
⬇️
someone in power passes a law that makes the entrepreneur above even more filthy rich
⬇️
people's lives are miserable and many of them die due to this completely fucking preventable problem
⬇️
news breaks that this is somehow even fucking worse than anyone thought
⬇️
loop back to step 1

democratic socialism is when its socialism but with the american flag and also everyone is white

and it's not that they try to assimilate us, it's that they try to make us internalise our oppression, make us erase ourselves and accept the patriarchy's — which requires an internal enemy to constantly stomp on to keep existing — evaluation of us. this is violence for the continuation of violence. it's to prevent us from having words to describe it and from having a flag to rally behind

every one of us goes thru a phase, or multiple phases, of thinking we're the only one like us in the entire world. how many people don't make it thru that, and how deeply the ones who do are scarred by it. every single trutrans and biphobic gay and w/e else can be traced back to being unable to cope with the intense othering of being robbed of your roots, of your history & resolving that by turning into an agent of heteronormativity
