people fr seem to assume that regardless of anything, people who were coercively assigned male and aren't men have like, the exact same lived experiences as cis men up until the moment they come out. like there wasn't anything at all whatsoever that prevented them from coming out or something
like this is what "male socialization" is ultimately about, i think. it's all about denying any oppression happening before a transfeminine person comes out, as if they weren't and could not have been subject to transmisogyny before then. it's about making the femininity and womanhood of trans women foreign to them, it's about denying them expertise on their own lived experiences as women.
i think this is what "female socialization" really highlights as a complementary term. my glorious learned innate intuitive and deep understanding of What It's Like To Be A Real Woman vs. your shallow vapid and tragically Male understanding of womanhood (you would never understand)
'minion' -too closely associated with those yellow things
'goon' -linguistic drift gave her a new meaning. i hope her new life is good for her. i miss her.
'henchman' -too gendered. can be shortened to 'hench' in a pinch, but lacks punch.
'servant' -too domestic to apply to all those who serve evil.
'underling, subordinate' -this one only works if they get off on being beneath you and/or you don't properly pay your workers.
'associate' -this one's good for grizzled mercenaries or lone agents but doesn't work good for broad swathes of an organization.
'slave' -same as underling but more intense. really fun for some of the group. unsavory for others in a way that limits the scope of the thing.
'thrall' -only really applies if you're brainwashing them and that's not something i've learned how to do en masse yet
'flunky, toady, stooge, lackey' -these are just insulting, and that isn't conducive to a healthy work environment. imagine going to work and your job title is 'stooge'.
'acolyte' -works for those that worship you, but again. lacks the scope.
'supporter, follower' -unspecific and vague
'assistant, helper, aide' -not sinister at all. just means you're doing things for me. swagless in this manner. could be good if used to describe someone who's so clearly more that as a way to emphasize their obedience via understatement, but that's only useful for a few members of the organization. and even then, 'associate' works better.
'cohort' -untested in the field. suggests an equal footing in the affair, ideal for post-structuralist evil organizations with a bottom-up power structure that's held in the hands of the evil workers themselves. perhaps we'll explore it together?
may I suggest: 'grunt' â time-tested by crime bosses with a variety of goals and organizational mandates. implies a subservient position with none of the innate baggage of lackey et al.

T-shirt that says "I'M SORRY FOR THE PERSON I BECOME WHEN I'M OVERHEATED"
iâve said it before but anglo lesbians are so so racist about yuri itâs actually absurd how bad it is
feel the need to mention that this post was inspired by a bechdel-wannabe comic artist making a strip about how all yuri is incestuous and dirty art lmfao
White lesbians in Seattle when the yuri has competent writing, themes, and fleshed out characters who act like people and not a bunch of trite archetypes with sex jokes presented with the tact of a Disney XD cartoon:
Good job boys keep up the good work
anyone gonna do anything though? or are we all just waiting for a magical day that won't come? is anyone doing anything besides making playlists?
I know what youâre insinuating but it is much funnier to imagine that Trump is some sort of Immortal who wonât leave office unless we behead him with a sword. Now I want to know who the other Immortal is. The only person I know who refuses to age is Paul Rudd and I donât think heâs capable of that
watched a sheep-shearing demo yesterday and the sheep do this thing. where they kick and struggle and bleat as the farmer drags them into place for clipping and wrestles them onto their back. the sheep hate it so much because they don't know what's happening.
and then the farmer gets two or three clips in, and the sheep just sort of chills out, and realizes it feels kind of nice. and their coat comes off and five minutes later they're released, shorn and naked, and they go run around with the other freshly-shorn sheep. they rub their skin against the hay and the barn walls and each other, and get startled by the new textures. sometimes they get cold, so they huddle up together or get a under a blanket.
and they will get sheared this time again, next year, and they will kick and struggle and bleat again, because they won't remember how it felt. they will remember a year of being an animal that everything wants to kill, and they won't be ready for someone to try to help them.

The only difference between a chud religion and a woke religion is whether or not said religion has the weight of the government or other powerful institutions behind it. No matter how beautiful and egalitarian and morally aspirational the original texts of a religion are, there is absolutely nothing stopping institutional actors from twisting those words to defend the powerful and demonize the powerless. Bitches in the U.S. will be like "Buddhism is such a peaceful religion, you never hear about Buddhist extremists" yeah of course YOU haven't heard of Buddhist extremists you couldn't find Myanmar on a map if your life depended on ir
i was talking about this on my server earlier but i really think "cozy" is one of the worst genre labels out there in the gaming space. like people dunk on the terms "metroidvania" and "first person shooter" a lot for being uncreative or limiting but at least those are like... falsifiable descriptors. you can look at a game and go "yeah this game's mechanics and core gameplay loop generally operate like metroid/castlevania" or "yeah this game primarily uses a first person camera paired with some sort of projectile weapon" so i don't think they're completely useless. but "cozy" is just nonsense. fully subjective. i see a lot of games popularly labeled as "cozy" that share almost zero mechanical features between them and don't even always match in tone or aesthetic. hearing a game described as "cozy" doesn't tell you anything about what to expect as a player beyond maybe giving you a sort of forewarning about the fanbase and their discomfort tolerance. "cozy" is not a quantifiable metric. like imagine if someone offered to buy you takeout and asked you what kind of food you'd like and you told them fully unironically, and with no further elaboration, "i want to get yummy food." that's what hearing "cozy games" sounds like to me
itâs genuinely fucking absurd that cis people have any goddamn say at all on trans healthcare
âoh yeah i mean im not diabetic but i dont really know how insulin works and i think its kinda freaky that you gotta poke your finger all the time so im gonna go ahead and say insulin is illegalâ
thats how it sounds.

Gonna talk about the U.S. like Wikipedia talks about China:
"The situation of human rights in the United States has attracted significant criticism from foreign governments, foreign press agencies, and non-governmental organizations, alleging widespread civil rights violations such as detention without trial, forced confessions, torture, restrictions of fundamental rights, and excessive use of the death penalty."
"The American constitution states that the "fundamental rights" of citizens include freedom of speech, freedom of the press, the right to a fair trial, freedom of religion, universal suffrage, and property rights. However, in practice, these provisions do not afford significant protection against criminal prosecution by the state. The U.S. has limited protections regarding LGBT rights."
"Although some criticisms of government policies and the ruling party are tolerated, censorship of political speech and information are amongst the harshest in the world and routinely used to prevent collective action. The U.S. also has the most comprehensive and sophisticated Internet censorship regime in the world, with numerous popular social media apps and websites being controlled and censored by state policy. The government suppresses popular protests and demonstrations that it considers a potential threat to "social stability". The U.S. additionally uses a massive espionage network of cameras, facial recognition software, sensors, and surveillance of personal technology as a means of social control of persons living in the country"
"Under US economic policy, thousands of private corporations use sensitive personal information to assign individuals a 'credit score,' a legal form of discrimination which incentivizes citizens to make housing, banking and other consumer decisions optimized for maximal profit extraction by financial middlemen"
I'm adapting to life down here.
