Influencers have started floating 'normalize ephebophilia' trial balloons. We have to do everything we can to call this sick sh1t out. Remember what they were able to do with all things LGBTQ+ because we kept our mouths shut. Don't let it happen again. Shut these kid-fvkers down.

Bro.

@benryanwriter I just look at people, and my brain tells me if it's a man or a woman, same as when I walk into a kitchen, and my brain tells me what's a microwave and what's a refrigerator.

ACLU litigator Chase Strangio in a 2021 Medium essay: "The assumption behind the anti-trans rhetoric is that there is a single biological characteristic that one can locate and name that demarcates the so-called biological line between the binary of maleness and femaleness." Actually, there is: the gametes. There is no spectrum. They do not come in size medium. There is only large or small.

@benryanwriter The Groups are the biggest national cancer nobody has the courage to talk about.

I once had an editor at a major MSM outlet tell me that they couldn’t run my article on the trans kids stuff because they were afraid of the GLAAD truck.

How GLAAD Changed Under Sarah Kate Ellis: Hernon Graddick, the former head of @GLAAD on gender transitions for kids: "I think we need to correct what's wrong...particularly the medicalization of children...Teenagers and kids should not be given the power to make these life-altering decisions that medicalization causes." Sarah Kate Ellis @SarahKateEllis, the current head of GLAAD: "In terms of trans kids and gender-affirming care. The American Medical Association has confirmed that these are safe procedures. This is finished business. It's politicians and junk science who's creating some kind of debate or argument about this." These quotes and so much more are in @BenKawaller's new podcast series for Andy Mills' Reflector, "Strange Bedfellows," which tracks how the LGBs merged with the Ts, got queered by the Qs, and may be facing a divorce.

@designmom As a mother and devout Christian, do you consider Katie Porter's domestic and workplace abuse to be Godly?

I’m a mother of six, and a Mormon. I have a good understanding of arguments surrounding abortion, religious and otherwise. I've been listening to men grandstand about women's reproductive rights, and I'm convinced men actually have zero interest in stopping abortion. Here's why…

@katieporterca Here is your regular reminder that Katie Porter is a piece of sh1t with a publicly documented history of abusing both her family members and employees.

I’m not just running to be California’s first woman governor. I’m fighting for things that the other candidates in this race haven’t even mentioned—from passing free universal childcare to abolishing ICE and protecting immigrant families.

Yet another strong showing from the Palestinians! Why don't we see Israel anywhere on this chart?

I like the way the artist put a male upper body on a female lower body just to fvck with the viewer. Nice bit of propaganda.

@DrJosefWD If we as a society had the stones to properly prosecute criminals, none of this would matter. For some reason, half the population feels compelled to make excuses for the 5% committing all the crimes.

If you smoked weed in the 70s and think you know what cannabis does to the brain, you need to update your information. That was 3% THC. What's being sold today is 15-20% in flower and up to 90% in concentrates. That is not the same drug. It is not even close to the same drug. The conversation has to change.

Americans haven’t at all absorbed the moral awfulness involved in killing animals for food — especially, but not only, via factory farming.

@harriepw So, they're turning it into Buzzfeed, basically.

NEW: LGBTQ+ publisher PinkNews is making its remaining reporters redundant, saying it wants to “move away from having a reporter-led newsroom” to a model where there “isn’t a need for the reporter role”

@DesireeAmerica4 It's always happened, and always will happen. The best way to keep the vermin from reproducing is to impose birth licensing, on the one hand, and impose extreme consequences for abnegation of parental duties, on the other.

A mother and OnlyFans creator chose to abandon her kids for a weekend trip that ended in tragedy. ​Police arrested 20-year-old Kyleah Tolle at a McDonald's days after she left her 2-year-old and 7-month-old completely alone in their home. She drove to the Tri-Cities to hang out with a man, ignoring her children entirely. ​The baby was found deceased in a crib, and the toddler was starving. Interviews later revealed a horrifying history of alleged drug use and neglect while friends stated the baby "never made a sound" because she knew her mother wouldn't come. ​As stories of extreme parental neglect continue to surface across the country, what is the actual solution to stop this from happening again?

@iFightForKids I think your buddy C.R.A.S.H. there needs a hard drive check, Alex.

I mean he admitted to molesting 2 children and possessing hundreds of images of child porn so..

@harryjsisson How about this one, Harry?

Joe Biden was right about everything.

@mmpadellan @elonmusk You must be new here. It's been tougher to get a driver's license than a passport ever since RealID went into effect.

There is a HUGE difference between having a valid photo ID (like a drivers license or military ID) and a passport. I wonder how much the poll results change if you phrase the question: "Do you favor having to present a passport instead of a drivers' license or your present ID in order to cast your vote?" Most people have a drivers license, military ID, college ID, etc. But those will not be acceptable under the GOP's proposed voter suppression bill. AND YOU KNOW THAT. Why won't you admit it?

We don’t live in a democracy if our elected leaders fail to implement the will of the people

Trump is in office because the Democratic Party surrendered to its own lunatic fringe, e.g., Ilhan Omar and co.

Being right wing and high in openness (me) is being able to fully enjoy art while easily thinking “but I do not want these people to be in change of serious things” like Law, Borders, Military, Education, etc.

@JessicaLBurbank I am.

why is the right wing not celebrating the victory of free speech leader and musical artist Afroman

@AGJamesUthmeier Why not work WITH Discord and honeypot the chomos? I seriously doubt the Discord execs are sitting around discussing ways to pad their quarterly earnings by facilitating preds. It's not Bsky, right?

Child predators should have no safe haven, which is why we launched an investigation into Discord.

@DrJosefWD To those of us who believe in free will, contingencies like that are wholly irrelevant.

Two hits. That's all it took. Bryn Spejcher tried cannabis for the first time, took two hits of a high potency product, and within minutes believed she was in hell and had to kill someone to escape. She stabbed her boyfriend 108 times and remembers none of it. The court called it cannabis-induced psychotic disorder. The judge said she had no control. This is not hypothetical. This happened. Cannabis doubles your risk of violence in the general population. In psychiatric patients it's 2.5 times higher. That's not my opinion. That's a systematic review of 51 studies covering 200,000 people. The data exists. We just aren't talking about it.

@AlfredAlfer77 @MeinGottNiles To be fair, some Alfred Alfer piece someone shared was one of the best pieces of animation I've ever seen - ever - so his complaint isn't without some merit.

I just got another comment like this which brings to mind @MeinGottNiles latest post about his process of AI animation. These posts always make me laugh because it insinuates that Directing, Editing, Storyboarding, Writing, etc. are not talents; Scorsese didn't have talent because he didn't sculpt every element of the film by himself and *only* directed. Editors in post-production who cut the film together are not talented because they are *only* editing. Paul Schrader did not have talent because he *only* wrote the screenplay of Taxi Driver. All of these skills and talents are still required to make a quality AI animated film, and all are usually done by a single person. The person commenting is claiming I am not using my talents anymore because I didn't animate every single frame of this animation by hand - which I am capable of and have done for 20 years. But these people never seem to understand that the 55 minutes of Will Stancil Show animation that I've done in 4 months would traditionally have taken me nearly 4 years, lmao. As I always say, Independent Animators are the only artists who are expected to do the jobs of hundreds of people. And when one finds an incredible tool that radically shortens the back-breaking labor while still allowing one to have full creative control (the equivalent of getting a studio of Korean animators) they then claim you are not an artist, or your new films do not require talent. Really the only way to rationalize how someone could make such an absurd conclusion as this is that a) they never have seriously attempted to animate or make a film in their life and b) they have <90 IQ.
