This is so real. Conservatives act like theyd rather have GNC people be cis than transition but the reality is that they don't want cisgender GNC people to exist either. The gender binary as it exists today doesn't allow any middle ground between complete gender conformity and getting discriminated against. Tomboys just barely get to exist (but not without resistance) but any slightly GNC man will make the average conservative furious beyond belief.

No need to apologize you're entirely correct

Transphobes aren't attacking bathrooms randomly. It's not about protecting women and children, it's about preventing trans people from participating in public life.

Access to toilet facilities are essential to being able to participate in public life.

It's why society was so reluctant to introduce public bathrooms for women, because before that all public bathrooms were for men only.

It's why society was so reluctant to desegregate toilets for Black people.

It's why society was and is so reluctant to create disability-accessible bathroom stalls.

If a person can't access a toilet, then it's extremely difficult to impossible for them to participate in society.

So, the best way to exclude a group of people from society without putting up a literal sign saying "x group of people not allowed" is to prevent them from accessing the bathroom.

Once on IMDB I saw a “goof” which was that during a scene set in India(?), the light flicker was at the wrong frequency (in hertz). I wish I knew what movie it was to show you guys, I want to say it was some Marvel shit.

I always wondered how this person knew that. Was there an amazing Indian electrician who just instinctively felt the flicker rate was off? Did they go frame by frame and count the flickers per second?

I wanna say that was Tenet?

holy fuck

tfw you’re bothering a cat but not enough for it to MOVE so it just looks Disapprovingly at you

I would just like to point out. The ears are pointing forward. The cat’s sprawling out more as the bowl is shimmied as opposed to getting up to try and get out. That expression is hardly what i’d call disappointment. It’s actually enjoying being gently jostled! Can’t explain why, though. Could be the soothing jiggling motions, like how we sit in a vibrating massage chair sometimes. Or maybe it just sees this as an amusement part ride of sorts. Whatever it is, i can tell the cat is very relaxed and trusting of the person holding it in the bowl. I rate this VERY cute!

get jiggled, idiot!

have you seen the webcomic Girls With Horns by winonaparadise. I recommend it no reason

Huh I wonder if "girls with horns" is supposed to be some kind of metaphor for another subset of girls with specific physical features

GIRLS WITH HORNS IS ABOUT TRANS GIRLS?? I THOUGHT IT WAS JUST FUNNY DEMON COMIC

SCREAMING

I'm sorry to say this but you might actually be kind of dumb

Thought I might wanna post this series here too :D

I basically try to incorporate the charms equipped to the knight in this series :3

Tumblr reblog chains are in danger.

It seems that the staff is actually going to go forward with their decision to remove reblog chains, where reblogs will basically work like regular comments on other websites.

This doesn't just make the site completely unusable, it removes the soul of the community that has managed to build up here over the years, and that I'm so happy to have recently joined.

It makes impossible the creation of great posts where many people build up a single thing, until it is a gem of expressed human creativity.

There will be no more world heritage posts, no more messing around with your mutuals, no posts worth remembering.

There will be no more Tumblr, and the Tikblr or TumbTube or whatever monstrosity is born from its corpse will soon die, as is probably the best. And then there will never be another place like this on the internet, no place anymore to run to, no more fun, no more community.

I recommend a simple course of action. When these changes get imposed upon us, stop using Tumblr. Get your mutuals' discords, your favourite artists' websites, and leave. If the Tumblr we have once known returns, we well too. If not, better let it die quickly than suffer a long and painful decline.

I beg you to reblog this, for the more people see it, the higher chanses are for this to work.

And add something, so we can show them what Tumblr is really for.

Remember the time MatPat said that the Pyro was a gay man because he was schizophrenic and had a long index finger? Whenever someone brings up Game Theory I think of this. That was stupid in a funny way I think.

Avatar

now the Worst game theory (of the ones that he made before I stopped watching anyway) was, I'm not making this up, the one about why it's good actually when fighting games have hypersexualized female characters because it allows for a high level strat where you pick a sexy character and your opponent won't play as well because he has a boner

I think the one where he confidently and unironically concluded that Wario was 13ft tall because they had to scale Olimar up so he could be a functionable Smash fighter and taking the resulting scaling as word of god was the worst one actually

Avatar

oh I actually remember the exact chain of logic that was used to determine that Wario is ten feet tall:

  1. by some mysterious process, determine the height of princess peach (this number is cited as coming from the video about boobs, which I refuse to watch)
  2. use pixel measurements in mario 1 to determine the relative heights of peach and small mario
  3. double small mario's height to get the height of super mario
  4. use pixel measurements in super smash bros brawl to determine the relative heights of mario and wario, using the super mario height

like yes the final result is absurd. but this method of getting To that final result makes it even weirder!

however I maintain that this is not the worst game theory. this is bad analysis, sure, but it's harmless bad analysis. using bad analysis to say wario is ten feet tall so you can use that to calculate how powerful his farts are is just kinda silly. using bad analysis to say that those feminists claiming that your hobby is Problematic are all wrong and don't understand the intricate Boner Strategies at play on the other hand? indefensible

ah the astrology tango

"no one really takes it seriously, we're just having fun" -> "okay so people take it seriously but they're right to take it seriously because it's such a good tool for understanding yourself" -> "okay so it might cause you to make bad predictions about people based on the month they were born in and might foreclose on important life opportunities but it's not like it can cause structural harm" -> "okay so sometimes astrology leads to ungrounded discrimination in housing, dating, and employment but those people would be assholes anyway" -> "okay so i have no way of showing that and it does give people conceptual resources to justify certain forms of discrimination and more widespread cultural buy-in would make that problem worse but i like it" -> "shut the fuck up redditor and let people have fun"

The fucking hamburger mascot? Why do you guys keep asking me about corporate garbage? Don't you get enough of that from advertisements already? Are you getting paid for this? I hope they're paying you hundreds of thousands of dollars. Well, they ain't paying me, so I don't think about stuff like this if I can help it.

“I always remember having this fight with a random dude who claimed that ‘straight white men’ were the only true innovators. His prime example for this was the computer… the computer… THE COMPUTER!!! THE COM-PU-TER!!!

Alan Turing - Gay man and ‘father of computing’ Wren operating Bombe - The code cracking computers of the 2nd world war were entirely run by women Katherine Johnson - African American NASA mathematician and ‘Human computer’ Ada Lovelace - arguably the 1st computer programmer”

Also Margaret Hamilton - NASA computer scientist who put the first man on the moon - an as-yet-unmatched feet of software engineering, here pictured beside the full source of that computer programme. #myhero

Grace Hopper - the woman that coined the term “bug”  

Grace Hopper did more than coin the term “bug”. She invented the first program linker in the early 1950s, for the UNIVAC I. A program linker translates instructions from one language to another (for example, numerical codes that represent instructions translated to machine code that computers can read), which is the very foundation of how computer’s operate independently. she also pulled a steve rogers and tried to enlist in the military a bunch of times and was denied. then, an exception was made for her when she joined the navy reserves, and she ended up serving for over 40 years (half of which was active duty). she retired from the navy Rear Admiral Grace Hopper. she was born in NYC in 1906. Grace Hopper was a fucking badass.

also computing was typically a job for women (many of whom were black women that made incredible contributions) back in the day, so it’s absolutely fucking wild that straight white men think they are the foundation of computer innovation. men PUSHED women out and took the credit.

Also, just about every computerized device outside of desktops is running ARM chips now. Your phone, your keyboard, your car, your watch. Basically everything.

And ARM was primarily designed by Sophie Wilson, a trans woman.
