No, that wasn’t my intention. Basically I’m just saying I don’t support any practice classifiable as infantile circumcision and none of it has anything to do with autism at all

I liked this episode. I’m not even a frequent Babish viewer (I am subscribed though). There were some really great ideas in this one, though.

I was really entertained by the one where he was all “I CANNOT in good conscience give this monstrosity more than a 7 but the crew and I DESTROYED IT”

Well, you see, a person might admit to taking cognitive exams if their cognition is, in fact, in decline

centrist politics was never actually alive, it was right wing policy in the nicey nicey shirt and well ironed jeans of the middle classes, it was a nod to the facade of caring as long as I'm alright Jack.
centrism is the notion of giving to charity instead of eradicating poverty, it's a scam.

Centrist politics is dead in the UK

It's

Green Party - left wing progressive, caring society, equality, inclusion

Vs

Reform UK - far-right, ultra nationist, promotes selfishness avarice, war, inequality, discrimination, persecution of minorities, misogyny, cronyism, xenophobia/extreme racism

Greenwood has profited more than enough from his one hit. It’s literally mandatory to play at citizenship exams. Pretty ridiculous imo

Reminder that not every Autistic person comes equipped with a penis. But also, clitoral circumcision or female gen mutilation (FGM) is incredibly dangerous and can shorten the life expectancy of those affected.

It always amazes me how low media literacy is allowed to be, even for grad-level arts students. My bio family has two MFAs in creative writing and not a shred of understanding why all the books and movies they threw at me, made me leftist. Hello?

Where’s the rest of the novel OP

Lex Fractal [they/them] @its-lex-actually.bsky.social · 2d

It never is. One of the last things my so-called father said to me in person was “I WILL NOT BE WALKED ON.”

You know, for being asked to take a genuine interest in his kid’s life beyond how he personally benefits.

The zombie genre is also white supremacist fanfic. some people are less than human and acceptable targets of violence… this is not always the intent, but once you start looking for racism in these stories, you’re not going to run out of ways the genre is uncomfortable.

It’s wild to me that people either don’t know pr don’t care that the U.S. is tyrannical. That this “my way or the highway“ attitude is emblematic of tyranny. Embarrassing.
