They act like kids are gonna be traumatized by learning about LGBT people but when I was 8-10 I heard some news story about a trans man and a trans woman that were expecting a baby and I thought “That’s kinda cool”
The gross way that these marital rape apologists think they’re being charitable by saying “Oh but you are entitled to sex from him if you want” like bro men in general are far more capable of sexual violence on women than vice versa
It’s just disgusting
“Your ratios only work because you get more likes than me”
Reminds me of a tweet I saw earlier of this guy who when accused of being a fascist said essentially “You’re only correct by reality coincidentally matching your claims”
Imagine time traveling to kill Hitler right after he got rejected from art school. He’d be like “This day just can’t get any worse” only for you to coolly round the corner with a laser-guided .45 Longslide like Arnie in The Terminator
I would agree that we need time to just be alone in our thoughts but let’s not pretend most of our parents’ generation didn’t have the news on at dinner or the radio on in the car
Everyone knows this by now but for the people in the back when conservatives say they’re being persecuted or “actively suppressed” they just mean they’re not getting as many views or likes as they wish they could have
Transphobes really think that trans athletes are like, “Finally, after months of hormone therapy I faked the need for, I have a solid chance at maybe possibly lettering this year in triple jump”
Really just goes to show you that there comes a point where being a centrist or proclaiming to “not have political opinions” is just code for being right-wing and too afraid to admit it
I can see this as a Golden Girls-esque sitcom where they have some Stonewall era lesbian to provide 20th century wisdom for our protagonists every so often
Being against imperialism but only when it’s done by countries that you don’t like is rhetorically identical to supporting genocides done in the name of countries you do like
People can type in proper English and then have their propriety break down in less formal contexts? Like do you think Southern PhDs don’t say “y’all” on Twitter just because they don’t use it in their monographs?
My favorite part of this is that the IG account just has a picture taken from a phone camera of a computer screen of your original tweet as if they’re some 80 year old who doesn’t know what a screenshot is
Not to be that guy but both R2 and 3PO had their memories wiped before the events of Episode IV. If they hadn’t it would’ve made things a lot easier though lol
Also it’s interesting he says “It’s not something you kill people over” which implies he sees through all the groomer bullshit and knows his son went in there to kill LGBT people
It wasn’t until I was older and I’d been taught pretty hardline evangelical conservative ideology for eleven years that I would even be bothered by it, which means the only people who ever “brainwashed” me to believe anything were conservatives
I’m gonna be honest I disassociate from whatever memories I have of watching hers and other conservatives’ content but I swear she mentioned at one point that she never got bottom surgery (then again that was like 5 or 6 years ago now)
It pisses me off as a bi boyfriend too, cuz in my opinion how do you know this “straight” couple isn’t just two queer people who happen to be the opposite sex of one another?
I’m just noticing now that he’s wearing the hat indoors. Trump is old as hell and he may not be the classiest guy in the world but does anyone else think it’s strange that a guy of his generation would wear a baseball cap indoors paired with a suit?
I’ve been saying “on accident” instead of “by accident”my entire life. I suppose this variant emerged to balance out its antonym, “on purpose.” I’ve also been regularly alternating between “anyway” and “anyways” my entire life.
Exactly. Either “taxation is theft” or “taxes should only go funding the police”, you can’t believe both and I think he only got away with expressing both here because he was talking to eight year olds
Am I too woke or is there a touch of bi erasure and anti-miscegenation implicit in the “yeah she’s bisexual and married to a busted white guy too” part of that drawing
In 5,000 years when alien archaeologists dig up a fragment of your jawbone they’ll say “Oh sweet collagen” and then place it on the ass of a horrifically inaccurate reconstruction of a human because the aliens didn’t know any better
By “per backshot” we’re talking “per singular strokes?” If so that’s the easiest way for me to gain generational wealth and have my grandkids tell the legend of how I got it
I mean at six weeks it’s only just closing off its neural tube into a rudimentary brain so I don’t know that a fetus at that stage can be considered conscious or sentient then
Next you’ll see them post something like “Hitler wasn’t even that bad he was influenced by lots of bad actors in his government and actually he didn’t know the Holocaust was happening and did you know there were no written orders for it anyway 6mil is way too high an estimate...”
That’s a great and straightforward reading of the original tweet. Maybe telling people—whose job it is to educate people about the Holocaust—that encouraging hard-right chuds to get vaccinated is anywhere close to the same ballpark as the Holocaust is a bad look
The strongman schtick of fascists is literally just hot air and projected insecurity, they’re almost always way too scared of social rejection to be open about their beliefs
It is the year 2040. Women and young girls are socialized to just accept being turned into AI porn against their will as a fact of life, like stubbing your toe or receiving unsolicited dick pics.
The dystopia Fahrenheit 451 burns books but only those that are outlawed/don’t fit the State’s fixed telling of history
The dystopia of 1984 not only destroys but often rewrites history itself because its telling is incoherent and constantly in flux
It says something about the current state of affairs that we sometimes find ourselves vainly appealing to the justice of beings we don’t even know exist
They're on a military plane, I don't think they can be easily hijacked by a wife, husband, and their eight-year-old. The shackles were just for humiliation and a sick power trip for the guards
It’s a prototype of the sorts of no doubt well-meaning but misguided people who will argue with conservatives over whether the Bible is anti-LGBT. Like whether it is or not is irrelevant, we should not refer to millennia-old texts to inform policy
