@elephant_ben "please stop hitting yourself with a big hammer" is not an attack from an ideological enemy. they would gladly let you keep doing it.

This kind of tweets baffle me.
Supposedly critical of republicans but really lib bashing.

AI agents deployed on ISP servers will be able to flag trans activists in KY, pro-choice activists in TX, etc. in real time as they organize, & digital ID on their devices will let states know where to send SWAT teams Liberals should be scared shitless about this but they're not

@treblewoe this is true, but the baseband is physically isolated hardware, it can only interface with the main OS in ways the main OS permits. no direct memory access shenanigans.
this means GrapheneOS is immune to any funny business. you can inspect its I/O yourself if you're curious.
English
Every smartphone has two entirely separate computers and OSes. The one you know about runs Android or iOS. The one you don't is called the baseband. It runs alongside the phone completely independently. Its job is to talk to the cellular networks and comply with laws.

@twinkhoncreole they aren't even "highly educated", despite stereotypes of rich privileged gay men. it's survivorship bias, the poor ones don't tend to come out or live very long.
being gay inverts the patriarchy's view of men, which is why they face hate crime rates second only to trans women
English
gay men are men so they have greater opportunities for reassimiation into patriarchal norms but you can clearly see most gay dudes did not do this because they're one of the most highly educated demographics in the United States so they end up being woker then cishet women
English
@YeshieSir i mean true but thats Not the kinda situation i'm talking about lol
this is genuine attraction to women, it's just really rare and specific to the point it doesn't fit well in either box. it's just awkwardly wobbling back and forth on the border every once in a while.
English
@refractivewave @happyroadkill Well, straight people like straight porn too despite not being attracted to half of the participants 🤷♂️
Sex can just look really fun
English
its kinda funny, I thought maybe I was repressing my bisexuality for a while because I always perked up when I saw a really sexy lady on screen despite not actually being that sexually attracted to them, but it turns out I just really wanted to steal their shit and do drag
English
@ChechenJesus there isn't any well known label for "mostly gay but into women like 2% of the time" tho
and there's a reason for that. there's no real point in telling people that info, since it could never turn into an actual relationship. it's just a weird detail that doesn't quite fit 'gay'
English
@refractivewave @happyroadkill It's not too complex to label
You just are saying all screws and bolts are just a fastener
Subdivide to a more granulated field and you know what you want
English
@TheRealDSandman yeah, it was nice seeing how well he responded to zooble genuinely including him. not only did he stop self-isolating but he didn't poke back or make fun of them at all
i think a hug from anyone would help him a ton, especially as he comes to terms with it all being real...
English
i know a lot of people want Jax and Pomni to hug it out, but I really think Jax needs to apologize to Gangle and they should hug it out. Gangle certainly doesn't owe Jax forgiveness, but I feel like it would be very healing for him to know that he's not irredeemable.

@porouscandle @rupturedpurity @tomoka_whwf @eunuch_fruit what IPL do you use? basically all the ones i've seen can't be used on the face or don't really work :/
English
@rupturedpurity @tomoka_whwf @eunuch_fruit Wait yeah this is true .. i do get ingrown hairs on my face from time to time so what you say here tracks with my experience. I guess this is my reminder to pick up my IPL and start working at the small amount of vellus hairs on my top lip slowly ..

@wybe_borne @possb0x beating the transphobia allegations by calling trans women whiny men who make everything about themselves
wow, why can't people see how much of an ally you are? smh my head
English
@refractivewave @possb0x All over the world, afab AND trans women will complain about anything at all- and there will always be someone going "what about men tho? what ab this group? this happens to them too!" Like yeah no shit, Im not a man tho, cant speak for them. Make ur own tweet then
English
As I get older, I understand why many afab artists just stick to minimal socializing and sfw stuff
English
@Jennieboopp it was intentional. many "afab" furries see the misogyny and "degeneracy" in that community as the fault of trans women and gay men, who they lump together and demonize while still insisting that they're allies
there's a post phrased just like this basically every week...
English
I dont think afab was nessacery here

almost every day i see another one of the coolest nicest best people in the world now wants to d//. and often there's nothing i can really do.
at least my anger about what our enemies are doing to them gives me a reason to live. if they want me dead they have to do it themselves
English
@ErasmusBelial they'd probably love to do that tbh, but the opposing insurance company has a financial incentive to fight it. also they have no way to know what modifications you did or didn't make to your car without a thorough inspection, which they never ever did to mine even when i got hit
English
@refractivewave also, im worried about any car lacking these features becoming uninsurable, or drastically more expensive to insure.
"you didnt brake soon enough because you didnt have a crash avoidance system. youve been found to be at fault" etc
English
how do you actually combat this without violating TOS? genuinely asking.

Starting in 2027, all new passenger vehicles will be required to have Infrared cameras, eye‑tracking, head‑position monitoring, and behavioral impairment detection. A biometric babysitter in every car. No vote. No opt‑out. Just mandatory. It’s control tech, plain and simple.

@madtranny the key difference is revolutions have actually happened
that inconvenient fact doesn't help you justify your personal brand of armchair incrementalism though, so feel free to carry on superficially comparing things based on vague conceptual similarities instead
English
"no you see one day there's gonna be this grand historical rupture called The Revolution where we dismantle every single system of oppression at once and after that it's utopia forever"
so the thing is i grew up evangelic and i've heard this story before
English
@poisonjr there's more variety than that, what about good ol' "they're a [person who performs gay sexual act]"
English
@wonder3mporium unfortunately, even in queer spaces if someone is vaguely masc there's no level of "looking queer" that stops people from he/him/man/sir/boy/mister/guy-ing us by default :/
English
kind of interesting how almost everybody interpreted he/him for the alt fox teenager, I thought they'd give off queer vibes

@valuedotfries unfortunately, going to parties and socializing and stuff is already more fulfillment than many people get
for us, replace that part with going to work to pay for college :/
