@stefisgirlnow @SLAYYY0NCE @zipxicomoro @irlgregorsamsa But an essay written by a 25 year old, who is not a trans woman, in the year 2000, before she started doing serious activism, is maybe better left as a historical artifact

@stefisgirlnow @SLAYYY0NCE @zipxicomoro @irlgregorsamsa Quick wiki shows she appears to be a good person with good activism and correct opinions ...but she's not a trans woman No disrespect, I'm sure her advocacy for intersex and sex work issues is great,

@inquisitrix @Teases_and_Such Idk if I've seen anyone more fiercely pro-abortion than trans women

@Teases_and_Such Literally... many trans women are very committed to feminism and even intersectional causes that don't affect them directly!

"trans women are above critique"? what imaginary world are you living in? trans women are the world's punching bag. we all know what you're doing saying shit like this.

@archer_uwu Last Jedi did so many cool things, I wish they'd made a sequel

as much as these movies sucked the way they had kylo fight was an incredible way to show his personality as much as possible, kylo was a good character stuck in a bad trilogy

@girlsbian_ Found this directly below a he man trailer making a similar argument

you know a movie is ass when people start resorting to the "why can't movies just be fun anymore" defense

@LyleShelton Is that illegal? Did she get arrested for having an opinion about soccer? Or did she maybe do some other illegal thing and go to court for that perhaps?

Kirralie is fighting in Court today because she called out biological men playing in women's soccer. She was ordered to pay $95,000 in damages. Her appeal is being heard today and tomorrow. End 🏳️‍🌈 madness, Vote 🗳️ 1 Family First. #IStandWithKirralieSmith

@TrishCosmicBard (and I met at least one of those women naked at a play party, so)

@TrishCosmicBard I'm really glad you made this choice. Congratulations, it took some time to get to where you are, but after everything, you're finally you

I don't feel I was lied to about transitioning necessarily but definitely now know there's zero focus for people at my age. Younger people want to see us transition but don't understand the fallout. A 26 year old saying "it's not too late" isn't taking to me, at 42 years old.

@robintran04 Please, there are children present - it's called "grape"

Lots of people in the culture war can’t fathom the possibility that some people like bad words but also hate rape

@DiscussingFish Robert Pattinson, kicking several empty tubes of gorilla glue under a dresser: yeah the heat I guess

Robert Pattinson's skin has reportedly "Permanently Fused" with his Bat-suit on the Glasgow set of 'THE BATMAN: PART 2'. Likely due to the historic heatwave currently hitting the UK. (Source: nytimes.com/2026/05/25/wea…)

@SZedkitty I recommend a professional therapist

i feel like something happened to me when i was younger that seriously messed me up, but i literally have no clue what it was.

@goblinodds @HaltsSpider @owenbroadcast Yeah, it varies. I spent a lot more time worried about quicksand than I needed to. Still, I don't think complete sanitization is the answer, though perhaps you sometimes skip a poem at bedtime

@emphabet @HaltsSpider @owenbroadcast alas this did not work that way for me at all haha, i've definitely felt like i was dying from grief and fiction about grief didnt help but it did give me a load of stress in the years and years before i ever experienced grief

when i was getting children’s poetry together for my last book, i think i looked through over 2000 pages of kid’s poetry books. along the way, i noticed something interesting. occasionally, i’d hit a poem like a speed bump, and ask myself - why is this in a children’s poetry book? several times i actually caught myself going back and checking the title of the book, going over each word, to make sure i hadn’t accidentally misread it and picked up a book intended for adults. the poems i’m thinking of fell far outside of what is typically debated as being “for children” or “good for children”. one example that stands out is a poem about an air force fighter mourning his dead friend who died after being shot down over the ocean. whether a kid should see this or not is subjective, but these were just objectively not poems intended for children. further than that, it was impossible to imagine a human being who would see this poem and think that a kid would relate to it. i became so interested in why this kept happening (not many books, but enough to notice - obviously, modern collections) that i read some of the introductions, wherein another pattern emerged: the same words and phrases, often something circling around the editors desire to “challenge children”. i would often find, in these introductions, the editor gleefully and cryptically addressing these types of poems, saying something like “there are some poems in here that you probably wouldn’t choose for a kid, but it’s important that kids see this stuff”. without assessing this as good or bad (i have my own opinions, as i imagine anyone would), i think you could split people involved in children’s media, of any kind (books, shows, cartoons, movies), along this line: on one side, people who think it’s important to, somewhat openly, trojan horse adult themes into kid’s media - that this is a noble, virtuous thing that ultimately serves the child and is an essential part of their development. then, on the other side, people who would would take issue with inserting a blatantly “adult world” theme into something that presents as being “for children”, for a variety of reasons. since hitting this, it feels like a clean way to delineate people’s various models of childhood and child development. it’s a pretty firm break with people easily able to sort themselves and almost any media they encounter onto either side.

@russelt4tdavies @hi_im_envy The character isn't a man in a dress because of masculine features, the character is a man in a dress because the illustrator decided to draw a man with a dress on. This was not a thoughtful, nuanced depiction of the variety of the gendered experience, there was intent

@hi_im_envy I agree with this, majority of trans rep should be in line with cis rep. my issue is the way ppl were calling the illustration a "man in a dress" purely cos of 'masculine features', that I also have as a woman. I was then told I'm not trans enough and fetishist bc I don't shave

that isnt what this is about at all

@deerfulaverage Are women just not allowed to be submissive housewives? Are redheads just not allowed to be hotheaded? Are gay men just not allowed to be slutty? Are [minority group] just not allowed to be [stereotype that's so ubiquitous everyone else just thinks they're like that]?

Are. Trans women just not allowed to be hairy. What is this

@TheIshikawaRin Because every time you see a tweet like this you pause to read it, and maybe check the comments, and the algorithm says "ah, this tweet is high engagement for Rin!"

Twitter keeps showing me incredibly annoying tweets using this one slur and I don't know why; it's a shockingly popular derogatory term on here these days for some reason.

@goblinodds @HaltsSpider @owenbroadcast Having a concept of grief and what it feels like and what it does inoculates you so that when you actually experience grief it doesn't just feel like you're dying. Makes you more hesitant to inflict it, too, I'd expect

@goblinodds @HaltsSpider @owenbroadcast That's true for going to the dentist, yeah, but when my dad died it was definitely worse than it was before he died. Having a lot of relevant stories, quotes, poems etc already in my head helped me deal with it, even if I'd never really understood them before

@goblinodds @HaltsSpider @owenbroadcast It's not "don't do war ever," it's "remember that war isn't glorious, it's messy and a lot of people get hurt, so when you're voting or enlisting or whatever, know what it is you're actually signing up for"

@goblinodds @HaltsSpider @owenbroadcast "remember that even the most necessary wars, even the rare wars where the lines of good and evil are clear and clean, end with a lot of people dead, a lot of people crippled, and a lot of orphans, widows and grieving parents"
