government people will be like "yeah it was cool before but now in our state we're gonna make it illegal to uncover female breast. or biological male breast that have been altered to look female. it's not against breastfeeding though we still want lots of babies" and TERFs will be like "yay feminism!" and the trans allies will be like "hooray you affirmed trans women's genders by no longer allowing them to continue to be shirtless post transition just like cis women even though they already elected to cover up because it's gender affirming and it's culturally taboo not to! trans rights have all been won except for how dare they include trans women in an anti-woman law boooooo!" and trans guys will be like "what about how they just redefined us as legally female so they're definitely talking about us, and then specifically in response to us uncovering our chests after top surgery, they made this law? and they only included cis women to misgender us further and they only included trans women to uphold the sexist and misogynistic idea that breast that have developed beyond a certain point (like ours were/are), or that don't exist on a body that belongs to a cis male (like us too), are inherently sexual? what about how we're the only significant demographic challenging cis men's monopoly over shirtlessness?" and everyone will be like "shhhhhhhhhhhh it's just a potential implication! clearly the only targets are female (cis or trans), they said so when they called you a female! you're definitely just collateral damage. it's definitely for sure totally not the other way around at all!"
if you can recognize when "male" is a dog whistle, you can figure out when "female" is too. it's the easiest one to figure out, especially when they're side by side.
Hello to goths and idiots only
Starting to notice that a lot of people complaining about lack of community around them are the same ones that talk of wanting baby-free airlines and other public areas, complain about houseless people, shame single mothers, and similar. Y’all are all for community until you actually have to help people or withstand a small inconvenience.
(Also just to clarify, not calling houseless people or single moms an inconvenience, the “inconvenience”is referring to hearing children crying/screaming/running in public areas)

LIKE WHAT DOES THIS MEAN. ITS KILLING ME NOT LISTENING TO IT 😭
The Magnus Protocol, episode 37
Can we stop using "still lives with their parents" or "unemployed" or "doesn't have a drivers license" or "didn't graduate high school" as an insult or evidence that someone is a bad person? Struggling with independence or meeting milestones is not a moral failing.
Hello reminder to all that today May 5th is Red Dress Day, or more formally known as National Day of Awareness for Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women, Girls and Two-Spirit People (MMIWG2S).
Today is always a harsh reminder that Canada is not the safe haven many in the world assume, and we still need to challenge racism, misogyny, genocide and generational trauma.
Many won't be able to attend events, but if you can, wear red today to commemorate all those who lost their lives and their futures in our broken system. Wear red today to show your solidarity to Indigenous people who continue to fight for equal treatment, reparations and visibility🌹
It’s sad that I even have to say this but please do not just say “Glad I never got diagnosed” and abandon the autistic community. Even though you are not put on the registry, you are still a part of the community and you can’t just “check out” because it will affect you either way. Even if hypothetically it somehow never affected you, just ignoring what is happening and potentially going to happen to autistic people is allowing fascism to continue. You know it’s eugenics, and standing by and watching them strip the privacy rights of people without doing anything, betraying your fellow autistics and allowing them to face eugenics while you do nothing for “comfort” will cause extreme harm. Staying silent is not being “neutral” or “staying out of it”, it’s death. We must stand with and fight with our diagnosed autistic siblings, especially those with high support needs. Now is not the time to ditch the community for “safety”, now is the time to fight.
One thing you can do right now is contact your representative and express your opposition for the registry and the taking of medical files from diagnosed autistics without their consent.
If you ever feel unrecognised, just know that Afghan Women keep getting further dehumanised each and every day and no one talks about it because it's not popular on social media
