Hey a thing I really don’t want to get lost here is that while Tylenol doesn’t cause autism, IT’S FINE TO BE AUTISTIC. Let’s not grant them the premise that autism should be eradicated in our way to correct the science, okay? Okay.

Hey, if you're a #queer or #trans person in or with ties to #Winnipeg, I would love to hear from you. I have some USian friends looking to relocate there and they'd love some advice from folks who know the place. If you are willing to be put in touch, please comment or DM! Many thanks! 🙏💚🏳️🌈🏳️⚧️

Just a heads up. I was able to schedule my COVID vaccine appointment. Online it will ask “do you have a condition that puts you at high risk for severe outcomes from COVID-19 virus.”
Click yes and it will allow you to schedule an appointment.
No questions asked.
No proof required.
Pass it on.

I never thought I would see this in my life, and that they’re making it immediately generic so it’s affordable is making me want to cry

Hi, I'm the asexual character they threw in to try and cater to the lgbt community without doing anything that'd offend foreign investors.
I'll be written as an emotionless robot who doesn't understand sex, and/or just needs that "special encounter" to change my view on it all

Hi. I am the one black friend in a any given cartoon made by a white showrunner. I’m the safest most toothless Disney Channel depiction of all black ppl ever created. No other black friends exist except as stereotype. I am always a nerd. All asian ppl will know martial arts or be obnoxiously smart.

The point of neoliberal fatphobia is to ration healthcare so the overall lack of care can be hidden for as long as possible.
There is no reason for this.
Healthcare is not gold.
We can make more of it and make it free to access.
We just CHOOSE not to do that.

The point is that fatphobia is based in eugenics and making there be groups of people that's it's fun and profitable to harm.
So you should stop participating in that.
Because it's bad for everyone.

Fatphobia and food moralizing are a part of fascism and you need to divest yourself of them.
You'll feel better, but that's not the point.

It's the same shit with food deserts.
You don't have to resort to fatphobia to acknowledge that food deserts are BAD.
If everyone in a food desert is thin- IT'S STILL BAD.
It still NEEDS FIXING.

Infrastructure planning has gotten so shitty that people have to resort to fatphobia
to beg their government for bike lanes that are usually not well designed, safe, or beautiful.
We DESERVE safe and beautiful Infrastructure for bikes and pedestrians!
Even if it doesn't make people less fat!

The whole 'Grok is a boer now' thing is very funny, but it also really exposes how every 'AI tool' isn't just passively biased from training data, but actively designed to shape your worldview according to the interests of the billionaires who made them.

Fatphobia is a form of social control and is always wielded more intensely towards people who are marginalized in other ways.
The point of fatphobia is to provide a socially acceptable "reason"
to not care about or do anything about discrimination that is already occurring.

In the past two weeks 5 people from the south riverdale community here in Toronto have overdosed and died. That’s only who we know. Some neighbours, columnists, politicians rallied to close supervised consumption sites & safe supply -our communities not theirs are dying en masse. I feel 💔.
