Human (parody)

@gothicyogini <3

So, what's going on here... is this is a place we still hang out and talk shit? Or is everyone still angry and fighting?

I wasn’t built from millions of years of stardust to deal with this shit

I'm just here for the jokes

@knuf1985 🥰🥰🥰

@TheFancyBirb Welcome back, we missed you.

I often have my grade 10 classes participate in a carbon tax debate as part of their climate science unit, and without fail, 10th graders provide more rational and thoughtful discussion on both sides than the vast majority of adults online, including politicians.

@SnarkyLibruhl @kleavittnh @BidenHQ LOLOL

We call on Joe Biden’s failing campaign @BidenHQ and White House to issue an apology to the millions of Catholics and Christians across America who believe tomorrow is for one celebration only — the resurrection of Jesus Christ.

If even the MOST privileged and publicly known non-binary folks can't get their pronouns used correctly, how do you think life is for every other non-binary person? It's not a privilege to be told your gender is fake and worthy of disrespect.

LOTS of public non-binary figures have walked back their use of they/them pronouns not because they didn't want to use them but because it hurts too much to be told over and over that your autonomy doesn't matter IRT your own pronouns.

People misgender Lily Gladstone. Lots of people don't even KNOW Elliot Page identified as non-binary when he came out as having had top surgery. I heard Demi Lovato dropped they/them pronouns because people refused to use them. But it's a privilege to be erased when you're enby.

WHY I AM RESIGNING FROM THE U.S. STATE DEPARTMENT By Annelle Sheline, PhD. SINCE HAMAS’ ATTACK on October 7, Israel has used American bombs in its war in Gaza, which has killed more than 32,000 people — 13,000 of them children — with countless others buried under the rubble, according to the Gaza Ministry of Health. Israel is credibly accused of starving the 2 million people who remain, according to the UN special rapporteur on the right to food; a group of charity leaders warns that without adequate aid, hundreds of thousands more will soon likely join the dead. . . U.S. IMPLICATED IN GENOCIDE Yet Israel is still planning to invade Rafah, where the majority of people in Gaza have fled; UN officials have described the carnage that is expected to ensue as “beyond imagination.” In the West Bank, armed settlers and Israeli soldiers have killed Palestinians, including US citizens. These actions, which experts on genocide have testified meet the crime of genocide, are conducted with the diplomatic and military support of the US government. . . U.S. HUMAN RIGHTS CREDIBILITY VANISHED For the past year, I worked for the office devoted to promoting human rights in the Middle East. I believe strongly in the mission and in the important work of that office. However, as a representative of a government that is directly enabling what the International Court of Justice has said could plausibly be a genocide in Gaza, such work has become almost impossible. Unable to serve an administration that enables such atrocities, I have decided to resign from my position at the Department of State. Whatever credibility the United States had as an advocate for human rights has almost entirely vanished since the war began. Members of civil society have refused to respond to my efforts to contact them. Our office seeks to support journalists in the Middle East; yet when asked by NGOs if the US can help when Palestinian journalists are detained or killed in Gaza, I was disappointed that my government didn’t do more to protect them. Ninety Palestinian journalists in Gaza have been killed in the last five months, according to the Committee to Protect Journalists. That is the most recorded in any single conflictsince the CPJ started collecting data in 1992. . . I SPEAK FOR MANY By resigning publicly, I am saddened by the knowledge that I likely foreclose a future at the State Department. I had not initially planned a public resignation. Because my time at State had been so short — I was hired on a two-year contract — I did not think I mattered enough to announce my resignation publicly. However, when I started to tell colleagues of my decision to resign, the response I heard repeatedly was, “Please speak for us.” Across the federal government, employees like me have tried for months to influence policy, both internally and, when that failed, publicly. . . HORRIFIC DISREGARD FOR LAW My colleagues and I watched in horror as this administration delivered thousands of precision-guided munitions, bombs, small arms and other lethal aid to Israel and authorized thousands more, even bypassing Congress to do so. We are appalled by the administration’s flagrant disregard for American laws that prohibit the US from providing assistance to foreign militaries that engage in gross human rights violations or that restrict the delivery of humanitarian aid. The Biden administration’s own policy states, “The legitimacy of and public support for arms transfers among the populations of both the United States and recipient nations depends on the protection of civilians from harm, and the United States distinguishes itself from other potential sources of arms transfers by elevating the importance of protecting civilians.” Yet this noble statement of policy has been directly in contradiction with the actions of the president who promulgated it. . . OUR CLAIMS ARE A MOCKERY President Joe Biden himself indirectly admits that Israel is not protecting Palestinian civilians from harm. Under pressure from some congressional Democrats, the administration issued a new policy to ensure that foreign military transfers don’t violate relevant domestic and international laws. Yet just recently, the State Department ascertained that Israel is in compliance with international law in the conduct of the war and in providing humanitarian assistance. To say this when Israel is preventing the adequate entrance of humanitarian aid and the US is being forced to air drop food to starving Gazans, this finding makes a mockery of the administration’s claims to care about the law or about the fate of innocent Palestinians. . . WAR IS OUR WAR Some have argued that the US lacks influence over Israel. Yet Retired Israeli Maj. Gen. Yitzhak Brick noted in November that Israel’s missiles, bombs and airplanes all come from the US. “The minute they turn off the tap, you can’t keep fighting,” he said. “Everyone understands that we can’t fight this war without the United States. Period.” Even now, Israel is considering invading Lebanon, which brings a heightened risk of regional conflict that would be catastrophic. The US has sought to prevent this outcome but shows no appetite for withholding offensive weapons from Israel in order to compel greater restraint there or in Gaza. Biden’s support for Israel’s far-right government thus risks sparking a wider conflagration in the region, which could well put US troops in harm’s way. . . MY COUNTRY ‘COMMITTING GENOCIDE’ I am haunted by the final social media post of Aaron Bushnell, the 25-year-old US Air Force serviceman who self-immolated in front of the Israeli Embassy in Washington on February 25: “Many of us like to ask ourselves, ‘What would I do if I was alive during slavery? Or the Jim Crow South? Or apartheid?’ “’What would I do if my country was committing genocide?’ The answer is, you’re doing it. Right now.” I can no longer continue what I was doing. I hope that my resignation can contribute to the many efforts to push the administration to withdraw support for Israel’s war, for the sake of the 2 million Palestinians whose lives are at risk and for the sake of America’s moral standing in the world. . .

@LibertyJamison @JustinTrudeau LOL

@JustinTrudeau Reasonable people assume others are reasonable as well. They have no idea the lengths your administration has gone to deliberately gaslight Canadians. But you're historically unpopular, and I assure you Canadians will wake up to your globalist deception soon enough.

The Canada Carbon Rebate puts hundreds of dollars back in Canadians’ pockets every quarter. Oddly, some Premiers are against that – and they want to scrap your rebates. Here’s what I had to say about that:

Reader, he was, in fact, my husband!! We’re getting married!!!!!!

@agrumpygremlin @TattooedTriumph In fact, the gender bearers of yore owe the gender queers some androgyny, really. I dunno, how the math maths but I'm pretty sure it's just straight science. Solid facts. Unimpeachable position.

idk why there's discourse again- but unfriendly reminder that nonbinary people do not fucking owe you androgyny

Dashcam footage of driving over the Baltimore Bridge truly reveals the scale of what has collapsed, and collapsed so quickly and completely.

@BradHFX Omg I love this hahahhaa kids are the best

I can see where he’s coming from though.

Liam: “Daddy, is this you?” Me: “Not quite.” @FightOwensFight

The biggest lesson I’ve learned from this Kate MIddleton stuff is that lots of non-royals in the UK are waiting 4 months or longer for cancer treatment.

I have never seen more of a direct demonstration of how much of a glaring failure US mainstream media is. This is insanity.
