they gotta put all their eggs in the "male socialization" basket cause some trans women don't even have the body parts they fearmonger about but they still want to control them
like at this point in the like... 10+ years trans women have been a go-to wedge issue, everyone knows how chromosomes don't necessarily determine phenotype, everyone knows bottom surgery exists, everyone knows intersex people exist, everyone knows some people don't even produce gametes at all, everyone knows we don't stop calling cis women women after a hysterectomy or sterilization
the well of bioessentialist arguments is starting to run dry cause everyone knows the facts that disprove them. so they've had to greatly exaggerate how socialization works and how immutable it is cause what the hell else are they gonna do, lol

im posting this here despite the website being extremely white centered, I want people to understand how in this country it's basically ok to murder and victimize black people, especially women and children in the name of "self defense" and white America will reward you for your antiblackness.

anyway. I think the problem with a lot of "women's" spaces is that their logic of oppression is based in superstitious bioessentialism rather than the actual logic of how oppression works. so they exclude women who are incredibly more oppressed than them on the basis that something about a person's body makes them dangerous, rather than something about their position in society
so you have women's shelters, institutions based on the logic of protecting people who are oppressed by of the systemic and societal structures of sexgender, which exclude those who are most oppressed by the structures of sexgender, ignoring all data that shows just how vulnerable we are
this is TME privilege at work. to be TME is to either have access to male privilege, or to have access (if at times limited and conditional in the case of trans men) to the institutions and resources meant to protect those who don't. trans women have neither of these things
I understand the logic of including trans men in women's shelters, as the project of these shelters should really, in my opinion, be about protecting those oppressed by the structures of sexgender--aka, everyone who isn't a cis man--despite the naming. however, it's telling that a recent post I made about "afab only housing" was quickly derailed from "trans women are explicitly being discriminated against" to "hey, trans men are sometimes not allowed access to these spaces either!" to "trans men are afab, so they should be allowed into women's shelters, but trans women should have to remove their genitals or stay on the street"
the logic underpinning the inclusion of trans men in these spaces is often a bioessentialist logic that excludes trans women, which I think is part of why many of us are wary and combative about arguments on why trans men should be included in "women's" spaces. what these arguments should be based in is, in my opinion, exactly as I said: protecting those oppressed by the structures of sexgender
These orgs seem to have genuine difficulty reasoning about how risk factors in our society work in a material sense. Like it's always made about who is ontologically predisposed to do harm, rather than who has the opportunities and the incentives.
one of the "these can and should coexist" things to me is "there are numerous fat people who eat healthy and exercise and could beat the average skinny person in a hike" and "fat people who are fat and arent athletic and dont eat super healthy and do get winded walking up hills also are apart of fat liberation and deserve love too"
both of these are true and both deserve love and to be able to be accepted and get proper healthcare
You survive one of the most traumatizing things a child can go through and all you get in exchange is people telling you that your public existence is making it less fun for them to jerk it. To your trauma.
The cops very clearly planted evidence on him because they had to make an arrest because all eyes were on them and whoever actually did the deed was making them look stupid.
Why would the real killer hero have kept the weapon on his person and traveled two states over while carrying it and a manifesto in his bag, conveniently turning the crime into a federal matter? The same guy whose bag they found in a park, filled with monopoly money? Why did the police turn off their bodycams, take Luigi's stuff, drive a block away, turn their bodycams back on, go back into the restaurant, and then arrest him?
From the moment of his arrest, even left-of-center media has been presuming his guilt without examining anything (e.g. calling him "the killer" instead of "alleged" or "accused") and then when I say he didn't do it, the nearest person chimes in with some quip that tells me they think he did do it but should go free anyway. Don't get me wrong, I would have the same attitude if he had done it. But he didn't. It makes me feel like the only sane person in the world, even among my staunchly leftist friends.

People straight up do not realize that part of the reason manufacturing is not returning to the United States in massive waves is because we have things like “OSHA” and “environmental laws” and “minimum wages.”
It’s not even just about fair wages. It’s literally about the fact that you can’t dump industrial waste in a river here anymore.
Our cheap goods are so cheap because South American and Asians environments are being destroyed so you can buy a $40 pair of shoes every 3 months.
Cutting granite countertops has lead to a rapid increase in silicosis in the lungs out in California. All the working men and women in my family have died from pulmonary fibrosis. They were carpet layers, Post office workers, floor tilers. Staying safe in manufacturing jobs is annoying but also very, very expensive. Real manufacturing factories belch smoke and dust and grime that causes asthma and birth defects in surrounding communities. Everyone wants their manufacturing jobs back until they realize their kids are living directly under the Asthma Plant.
There will come a time when the workers in these countries rise up and demand better and things will start to even out, but if you want to honestly “do your part,” you gotta stop buying cheap shit for no reason.
Not every event needs to be celebrate with a baseball cap or a coozie or a t shirt or a keychain. Not every wall in the house has to have a picture or a cute phrase on it. The knickknacks are killing people.
people reacting to that post being like 'omg i need to buy slay the spire 2 and leave it a good review' are also making me a bit insane. the game is fine guys. megacrit can weather this one. slay the spire 2 itself is completely incidental to the story here. please spend two fucking seconds of your life thinking about the women who are the subject of misogynist hate campaigns for a second and why people are so quick to focus on any element to this situation other than that one.
like its unreal how often you can point to an explicit example of blatant misogyny and have the reaction be "heres why anything But misogyny is actually the realer/more correct/more relevant/more sympathetic reason to be interested in this situation." and once you notice it it will make you want to set yourself on fire all of the time
for anyone who watches this show and is unware, neil gaiman has been credibly accused of sexual assault by multiple women. there are several articles and interviews on this if you need more details. for the lazy, i have screenshotted everything listed on his wikipedia page at the time of writing this post.
i would strongly urge any and all of you who are engaging with this show to disengage because it is financially and socially supporting a man who is (credibly) alleged to have victimized multiple women and will use all proceeding financial gains and clout to put them through even more legal hell than he already has.
i genuinely encourage non black people to engage with this, who might be worried they can't because of the word "nigga" because they feel like it's overstepping. the only way it would be overstepping is saying it to me when ur not black, but please don't be afraid to engage with black art.
i kinda get annoyed when non black people police other non blacks on how to engage with black culture because it creates a problem where non black people avoid us all together which can be extremely isolating and create even MORE tension and overall being uneducated.
#the fact that 'can prove access to an online account at least 12 years old' or even 'account to be verified is itself fully 18 years old'#AREN'T accepted methods of age verification is such a telling sign of what the real purpose of age-gating laws is:#data harvesting and deanonymization and the buildout of state-controllable ways to restrict both content and internet access itself en masse (via @shinelikethunder )

do you want to play tomodachi life but don't have a switch, $60, or just don't want to pay nintendo $60?
here's an all-in-one site where you can download everything you need to emulate it!
Floralith beta — downloads and setup.
also, with an emulator, you can directly screenshot and record your game, and even mod it! add custom hair parts! import photos directly! remove region locks! emulate it!!
edit: the creator of the site, @blorblegoop, has created their own post about it, explaining who they are, addressing security concerns, and helping out with some common problems from the notes! please see their post if you have any further questions :)
everything?
everything! this site will walk you through downloading the ryujinx switch emulator, the firmware and keys needed, and the nsp game file for tomodachi life ltd.
is this safe?
the files are all directly downloaded from this site, so there's no third party to worry about. i didn't make this site - it was created by @blorblegoop , who recently contacted me with this post on their blog addressing security concerns. they scan all the files themself before hosting. i scanned my own pc after downloading as well, and it all came up clean! but it’s good to be aware of pc safety, especially when pirating. it can’t hurt to do your own scan to be sure!
how much pc knowledge do i need for this?
you should know how to download files, how to make and manage folders in file explorer, and how to navigate a program's settings menu.
any settings i should change in ryujinx?
here's some i recommend checking before starting the game:
for tomodachi life specifically, make sure you set a timezone in settings! you can have it match your pc's time for simplicity.
there are ostensibly keyboard controls, but they're a little wonky to figure out. if you can, plugging in any controller should work just fine. just make sure to select it in ryujinx's input settings! (you should also still be able to use your mouse for things like drawing facepaint!)
graphics settings will be on a per-pc basis, depending on your pc's strength. it's worth it to experiment with them and see what gives you the best performance. ryujinx will explain what each setting does if you hover over it!
the game crashed?
that's very likely to happen! on first time loading a scene, the emulator can sometimes struggle. it happened to me the first time i opened the mii editor, and the first time i opened the news station. you should be able to relaunch and everything will be fine. if it's happening super frequently, though, you may need to adjust your graphics or cpu settings!
a sixth thing i didn't think of?
check out this post by the site’s creator, where they go into some common issues from the notes and provide some solutions!
if you still have issues, feel free to leave a reblog with comment or send me an ask! if you need more specific guidance, i'll be happy to help! i'm not an expert on emulation, but if nothing else, i can try to point you towards a reddit thread that is more competent than i am
i hope you have fun playing the game! i did not create this site, but i found the creator in a single reddit thread asking people to spread the word, so i figured i'd do what i can and make this post. if it works for you, please help out and spread the word even further, and support the original creator of floralith! thank you!!
