Chiitan has a dream.
I hope that one day the term LGBT will become a thing of the past.
I will continue to spread my message until we live in a world where everyone can love freely and is free from persecution and discrimination.
Until then, let's all support each other🤍

How do I explain to offline people that my favorite Japanese mascot said "we can only be liberated from queer oppression if we are truly seen as human" and then started wielding fireworks like a rocket launcher on the side of a mountain without sounding like I've totally lost it?

David Simon, creator of ‘The Wire’, being interviewed by Ari Shapiro (NPR)

SHAPIRO: OK, so you've spent your career creating television without Al, and I could imagine today you thinking, boy, I wish I had had that tool to solve those thorny problems...
SIMON: What?
SHAPIRO: ...Or saying...
SIMON: You imagine that?
SHAPIRO: ...Boy, if that had existed, it would have screwed me over.
SIMON: I don't think Al can remotely challenge what writers do at a fundamentally creative level.
SHAPIRO: But if you're trying to transition from scene five to scene six, and you're stuck with that transition, you could imagine plugging that portion of the script into an Al and say, give me 10 ideas for how to transition this.
SIMON: I'd rather put a gun in my mouth.

YEAH I WAS BOUT TO SAY, I fired WP as my PCP for a lotta reasons, the weird chaser shit, the crackpot science, the racism & misogyny, the blatant clout chasing - but the fact that I NEVER saw any trans men in his practice & that whenever he discussed it he was always so fucking weird skeeved me out

not to dwell on the latest incoherent screed, but i look forward to the day in which trans women do not fawn over the transphobic ramblings of an outspoken eugenicist doctor as a speaker of truth and wisdom.

personally i think we deserve better than that. i think we should have higher self esteem.

Jordan Peterson has been hospitalized with

-CIRS, which gives you mood swings and emotional disregulation and bouts of mania

I... Literally cannot believe this

'We're not entirely sure what's going on': Jordan Peterson taken down by moldy room, daughter raises possibility of 'spiritual attack'

It's a crying shame.

progesterone, as we recall, has a modulating effect on GABA-A receptors, which potentiates their effects - which can make you very very sleepy if taken orally

we can’t empirically say it actually did anything for us; we went up a cup size within that year but they may not be related.

i don’t have any recent literature to offer you so this is not properly evidence based, but speaking personally, i noticed a SIGNIFICANT increase in my serum progesterone levels before and after. puncturing the capsule with a needle first also helps.

the fucked up thing is that boofing prog actually works and that it would go way harder if the recommendation came from an older, vaguely intimidating queer woman and not a mediocre white trans misogynistic man

The dominant conversation surrounding the release of Late Night With the Devil wasn't the movie's creative successes but the dipshit decision to use AI on a few titlecards lots of artists would have been ecstatic to draw, but sure, audiences don't care, Jason.

Culture Crave 🍿 @culturecrave.co · 1d

Jason Blum says Hollywood should 'embrace AI' and viewers 'don't care if what they’re looking at is AI"

"it’s here to stay. It’s very important to use it ethically and legally, and for studios and guilds to protect the copyright of the artists"
