tumblr transmisogynists will literally reinvent arbitrary sex categories but based off of embryonic structures instead of chromosomes before they will acknowledge that sex is mutable and that trans women are female

is this about accepting people who want to get rid of trans people into the tent or something else

Folks demanding political / ideological purity fail to see that this is no longer a movement belonging to the left / liberals. This is an opposition against fascism. By definition it must be big tent. Failure to grasp this: see divided oppositions in Eastern Europe as your failed examples.

This person is paying OpenAI two hundred dollars a month to have a chatbot gaslight them about making an excel spreadsheet

Cannot generate simple excel files on pro version
Question
So I have used ChatGPT pro for a while now and recently I have been facing an issue while trying to collate data from pdfs and put it in an excel sheet where in my chat it keeps asking me questions when it finally gets down to generating an excel sheet it never gives me the me the link to download the file.
After multiple attempts when it does give me a lin k to download the excel file I rec an error which says file not found. Starting to grow frustrated with this now.
Look forward to any suggestions to tackle this #problem

Not sure about diy but as an acrylic marker lover I do think you can get a lot of way better quality markers for much less (I love posca for their shape and vibe but they suck for drawing on paper and dry out so so quickly)

Six years ago, Uganda announced a bill to legalize murdering gay people. The National Christian Organization paid a preacher to go to Uganda and help their lawmakers with the bill. Chick-fil-A funds The National Christian Org.

If you eat at Chick-fil-A, this is what your money goes to.

her crime is literally just that she's transgender and nothing else.

she has been sentenced to years is prison for being transgender in a a country which has, for about half of her entire life, been harassing and abusing transgender people daily in the press and politics.

That's the UK right now.

Felt. So much of manhood and masculinity itself imo is built around heterosexuality/gendered performance "for"/surrounding attraction to women. And I feel like a lot of people don't realize that trans people r still beholden to these pressures/forces

And then, similar to trans women and gay men, there's the cultural idea of trans men and lesbianism being linked - but (theorizing here) maybe because that link is less exploitable by patriarchy it isn't as present as the link between straight trans woman and gay man ?

Wrt the idea of legibility I feel like in a way trans men/transmascs have little to no cultural legibility and that's something we often struggle with (talks of transmasc invisibility)

It cannot be made clearer.

If you continue to support the Harry Potter franchise in any way, you are directly funding the removal of trans people's human rights in the UK.

I hate cis anthropologists I hate cis anthropologists I hate cis anthropologists I hate cis anthropologists

Muxes identify with lo femenino or
what is feminine and many dress in traditional female attire, but they are not gen-
erally seeking to be transgender, or to be accepted as women.

The gay men I interviewed were even more emphatic and quick to differentiate
themselves from muxes. Mario, an articulate twenty-four-year-old gay man, for
example, said that
For me a muxe is a man who identifies as a woman and likes to dress like a woman. I
am not muxe. I am gay because I have never wanted to dress like a woman or to be one.
They work in female trades. I know I am a man.
