Me to the people who follow me because of the anarcha-feminism and school abolition stuff: okay but you have to understand I also really love birds
Me to the people who follow me for the bird photography: okay but you have to understand I also hate all systems of domination

The child's value is the perceived value to their parent. Even the threat of a failed future isn't for the child's sake, but the parents.

What always gets to me about this is that the "threat" of a child having agency is never really about the safety or wellbeing of the child. It always comes back to what that child could supposedly take away from parents if they were given agency.

I knew this book hated trans kids but did not know just how overtly hateful it is towards children in general. Apparently, nothing could possibly be more threatening than a child having any agency.

'Irreversible Damage' is a fearmongering screed combined with a how-to child abuse guide aimed at the parents of young trans children. Emma and Talia are joined by Lucy Kartikasari to examine how this misbegotten suburban tantrum dehumanizes trans and detrans people alike.

Genuinely difficult to think of anything that has ever confirmed the essential unity of capitalist crisis and environmental destruction as clearly & undeniably as AI. The race for shares of a shrinking profit rate sends capital flowing to a largely fictitious sector that consumes the material world.
AI is a climate issue. AI is a climate crisis.
A few important points here
- Generative AI supercharged data centre growth: lobbyist and substacker lines pretending like this is just streaming are false
- Even when you consider much of the projected growth is speculative, the *likely* projects are still MASSIVE

The man in the recording of the trans woman receiving those disgusting questions released today is unmistakeably Paul Moran, lead psychiatrist at the NGS by the way, not just some random maverick clinician. The rot comes from the very top #SpéirGorm #Trans

If there is an accommodation so desirable that a problematic number of people are “faking” disability (doubt!!) to access it, that shows it’s an accommodation that could have wide social benefit is implemented in abundance. This is often the case with accommodations generally.

Having to identify oneself as disabled to access accommodations is, on its own, a huge barrier to getting many disabled people the accommodations they need.

This is the ethos behind universal design! Instead of patching things with accommodations, universal design posits that we create things that are accessible to as many people as possible from their conception. This is, as Lee mentions in the thread, ultimately beneficial to everyone, disabled or not
What if everything everywhere was designed with the intention of having many different people accessing it? People in wheelchairs, tall people, short people, fat people, elderly people, people with less than four limbs, blind and deaf people, people with chronic pain and illness, and on?

I don't care if a non-disabled person accesses a disability accommodation for the same reason I don't care if a child whose parents are rich gets free lunch at school. We don't need to means test being a kind person. I have better things to do with my time than be a cop over social services.

Repeatedly, charities have chosen to cooperate with the ongoing exclusion of trans people from public life rather than take a serious risk to defend us. They will survive this shit. We fucking won't. Girl guiding or the People's History Museum or whatever get to do on. We die alone.

It rocks to tell people their shit rocks. Every single person who has ever been nice about my work has been appreciated for doing so. I take time to say I love stuff and it’s always the right time to remind somebody you value their work! You don’t need to get into detail either. Just say it rocks
I’ve sometimes fallen into the trap of thinking that complementing a creative person for their work is less sophisticated or desired than discussion or debate about it but very often the best thing you can say to them is hell yeah and that doesn’t make you dumb it just makes you nice

On behalf of trans men everywhere: This blows. It is much worse to be included as women than excluded from women-only things. None of us want this.
I'm sure it's all well intentioned by Girl Guides, but it's transphobic to say "if someone's biologically female they can join".
