*very serious gender and sexuality studies academic who just published a 300pg book on trans people in oceania without running it by a single one of them voice* the real colonialism is thinking you, a filthy white transsexual, have anything in common with the noble [local word meaning trannyfaggot]

Nicole DeWitt @catastro-v.bsky.social · 1d

its wild how across time, space, and culture we keep finding trans people describing having nearly the exact same experiences trans people have today and academics will bend over backwards to explain why they cannot be trans and how its actually offensive and degrading to even suggest that

I'd have not consented to having sex with a few ppl had I known what a prick they were behind lies and deception.

If I or any other woman took this to the cops we would be laughed at and called a slag for not being careful who we open our legs to.

Ciara Watkin is in prison for being transgender.

I think I assumed that no one was listening to anything besides the couple big hits that I'd be safe 😅 it was liking pop music that was actually popular that made everything problematic

Olivia Rodrigo's "lacy" isn't exactly this premise but it's super homoerotic; same album, "obsessed" def fits

"Weird Al" Pastor @emilyadler.bsky.social · 1h

I somehow accepted those no problem, but it was Ed Sheeran (the first album; I have taste) and, like, MARINA I couldn't admit to

not sure I believe in confidence being a factor there but I get what you're saying. could very well be right

"Weird Al" Pastor @emilyadler.bsky.social · 1d

eh, it's mostly been attacking closeouts and hitting 3s (a lot of them contested), so I don't think the primary matchup is the issue

"Weird Al" Pastor @emilyadler.bsky.social · 1d

wild that the entire Finals has basically been decided by Dana Evans having the hot shooting streak of her life

Senator Addabbo and the MTA are asking for Queens CB 5 residents to chime in with their views on the IBX. Not a lot of pick-up so far and I always worry the NIMBYs will flood the zone on this kind of stuff, particularly since Queens CB5 is home to a bunch of vehement NIMBYs.

IBX Constituent Survey

Share your thoughts on the IBX with Senator Addabbo, the MTA and Community Board 5! See our e-flyer for information about the project. Please do not fill out this form unless you are a constituent.
