I love stories where nobody is evil or even strictly wrong, they're just driven into conflict over conflicting perspectives on how to solve pressing problems, and their occasionally-drastic solutions

this is one of several reasons I'm writing Unlimited Combat Dolls :3

The Senate has just passed the military NDAA containing 2 anti-trans provisions: a surgery ban using federal funds (dependents too), and a sports ban on military academy spaces.

This will be the STARTING point for negotiations with the House, which has even worse provisions.

Only 20 Dems opposed.

It methodically goes through each problem in the review.

You either defend trans people and people of color now, or you go out alone when it's your turn. Just like Niemoller thought the Nazis would leave him alone if he was a good German. You're as wrong as he was. You'll find out.

Y'all told these motherfuckers it was OK to let trans people lose their rights. Now they're banking on people letting them abandon everyone who looks vaguely Latino as well as actual immigrants. Who are y'all advocating for moderation gonna abandon next?

1. In a devastating new Pew Research Survey, only 3 in 10 transgender adults report being accepted by their parents.

And only 1 in 10 say they are accepted by their extended family.

This is the lowest number ever found in surveys asking similar questions.

Photo of a vintage book cover featuring Dracula dropping gold coins onto his pile of gold coins, he’s smiling as he clearly is a greedy individual. A full skeleton lays on the pile of gold, perhaps it is one of his girlfriends. A naked woman looms in the background for some reason. Copy and title read:

"An English degree is a rip off" said by the people who are currently ripping everyone off. They don't want you to be literate, to understand the context, the references or the rhetoric they are using to scam you.

A rip off for THEM. If you can read, write and parse meaning, you're harder to fool.

some ppl who said this to me later asked me to help them write their cover letter, resume, edit their answers for applications.

Ppl who feel the same now are stealing the books and stories I wrote, which I used my knowledge of English lit to write, because cash.

Oh no we can't write email so hard!

Ian Dunt @iandunt.bsky.social · 2d

Calling English a 'rip-off degree' is one of the most blatant exhibitions of personal barbarism I've ever seen. You've demonstrated nothing but the poverty of your own mind.

Caught myself thinking that maybe I should delay some annual leave to help out because there's multiple crises at work and several people on long term sick.

But none of that is actually my problem, that's the company's problem.

Don't exhaust yourself because they don't employ enough people.
