Hi Senator, excuse me for jumping in, but... while I agree with you that this is really damaging, I couldn't help but notice YOU VOTED FOR THE FREAKING BILL THAT GAVE TRUMP THIS POWER (which some of us warned you not to do).

To everyone saying just wear a sports bra, stop. A sports bra is not enough for the men with big naturals. If you aren't defending us you aren't an ally
In addition to this administration trying to kill kids, and they're also coming for our binders? OUR BINDERS.

Crazy how Trump is flailing, Epstein files are coming out, the economy is going to shit, and Republicans are defecting and the first thing his admin does is pivot to attacking trans people. It's all they know. Just distract everyone from what's important by attacking a vulnerable minority group.

Cis people really have no idea how it feels to watch a regime hold a press conference to admit, on camera, the pogrom against trans people they've been waging for 11 months is not only real, but they're going to double down on genocide and try to wipe out all the children first.

1. The federal government has just attempted to enact a national trans youth care ban.
A new HHS rule would shutter most gender-affirming care for trans youth nationwide.
It violates multiple laws and the constitution, and will likely go into effect in a few months.

this can't be overstated enough; every part of the creative process is so necessary and integral to not only the final work, but also many subsequent works. maybe you stumble across a cool fact about a place you were planning on just being a background, maybe you find a new artist to love
Been thinking on the use of GenAi for mood boards. Ethics and legal risks aside, I truly believe using GenAi as references deprives one of many pivotal things.

Meanwhile, I am still in therapy talking about the racism I witnessed in a hiring process and simply didn’t have the votes to stop
The way hiring is rigged against Black candidates is fucking wild, up to and including just saying completely racist shit to people’s faces during the interview.

The fact that it at least anecdotally seems to be a semi-regular practice to tell white people a minority got the job in order to soften the blow of rejection really should put the elite woke panic into perspective.
