the statement: "a legal theory was proposed in which trans women could be targeted without violating the Constitution because other women and other trans people are excluded from our specific oppression, which suggests that transmisogyny is real and that transmisogyny affected and exempted are meaningful categories for analysis of our material conditions."

the response: "you are sowing divisions in our community by saying this. everyone has to get on board to fix things, which will only happen if you stop bringing this up. you are crazy, paranoid, and confused and the more you talk about your problems, the more we'll blame you for the violence that's done to you."

free use is kind of a funny kink bc it relies on the idea that everybody wants to touch you and have sex with you but what if they don't. what if you tell everybody at the party you're free use but they all ignore you and mind their own business

reblog to get collared, muzzled, and grind up against me

txttletale

if you've followed me for a while, you've probably seen me mention Underside, my dark cape TTRPG inspired by deconstructive superhero stories like Worm, Astro City, Watchmen, and the first season of Gen V.

it's a project i've spent a lot of time on, trying to build a system that tells the kind of superhero stories i like; the shit that treats them as a subculture with a body count, that digs into the dissociative tension of the secret identity, that asks what it means to feel so completely ejected from regular society that you can only go out in a mask and costume.

for a while now, a playtest edition of Underside has been available on my patreon; now, as it's slowly become more and more complete over the course of a year, i'm putting the most recent one up on itch.io

i want to be clear: while this playtest edition is enough to play a full campaign and contains all the mechanics that are going to be in the finished book, it's still a playtest. there's no fancy layout and an entire section (guidance for the Administrator, the game's GM-equivalent role) hasn't been written yet. but for a while, every time i talk about Underside i get the question: "where can i get my hands on it?". so here's an answer to that question; right now, while it's still in beta--if you want to support the project and help me get it over the finish line, or you just can't wait until it's out For Real, you can get it here.

"AI as a public good" can be broken down into subcomponents, like "electricity as a public good" is already real: you can build your own generator for special needs or install solar panels to supplement your usage but the electrical grid is a public good that provides great benefit to society at large, much like the water and sewerage networks.

one could imagine "data centres as a public good" but that's a bit more complicated than electricity, given that the tech is changing so fast and is so dependent on a few chip design and manufacturing companies that it's not really commodified yet.

however the CHIPS act in the US and the big push for silicon self-reliance in China are very much "silicon as a public good", along with all the public funding for academic research and training of course that flows into high tech industries.

"open weight models as a public good" is an interesting aspect as it limits the ability of companies to bottleneck and rent seek, but it also requires governments to give up some control and I think they're often more comfortable negotiating cozy relationships with a few big players than opening things up to the public at large.

argumate

(following discussion with @youzicha in the notes) I'm not using "public good" correctly here, given that electricity in the sense of kWh is a quasi-public good at best (you pay for it and there's a limited amount of it) and the most you could say of the electrical grid is that its synchronisation to 50/60Hz is a public good, although not a particularly meaningful one unless you're a cheap clock.

not sure if there's a better term for infrastructure like the electrical grid that is heavily regulated and supplemented by tax funding (especially during the early stages of electrification) such that it can be considered universal even though it's also user pays; in some ways it seems more similar to banking?

argumate

torschlusspanikattack said: utility, no?

yes I guess so! for a service considered essential, can be privately owned or publicly owned but is always heavily regulated, and "AI as a public utility" was where this conversation started anyway.

"Whether someone understands it or not, these are the consequences of the political views they're espousing" is a pretty important analysis tool for online movements because quite honestly, over half of everyone engaging in politics online have no foundations for the stuff they're saying and are just saying whatever makes them feel like a member of an in-group.

tpwrtrmnky

If your in-group is "the left" you're very much not immune to this. In fact, trying to do left-wing politics without even trying to build a foundational political understanding is a great way to end up as a neo-nazi with a tumblr accent rather than an effective left-wing advocate.

no afab baby you don't have a "transfem headmate" words mean things

shehellonmyspawntilisister

counterpoint this does happen with fictives quite frequently

calamity-corner

counterpoint: still not what transfem means

shehellonmyspawntilisister

yeah lets not do pluralphobia in our transfeminism

calamity-corner

i'm plural, dumbass, i just know what words mean! being "bodily transfem" is the only way to be transfem because we all exist in a body! if a member of a system is a girl and the body they all share was afab then she's cis! because that's what the words mean. i don't care about vibes i care about material realities and there isn't one in which a headmate in an afab body has the lived experience of being transfem, and vice versa.

if she's not speaking "as a transfem", and she's not "bodily transfem", then what the fuck are we even doing here. "trans woman" isn't a different gender from "cis woman", they're both just women. you are very clearly misunderstanding that and that's transmisogyny my friend. there is no gotcha you can catch me in here, you're just wrong. it's okay to be wrong it's just an opportunity to learn. or you can dig your heels in and keep doing transmisogyny, your choice.

shehellonmyspawntilisister

you know being an asshole to someone is not a great way to get them to listen to you.

calamity-corner

lol. lmao even. tone police her after not listening the first two times, that tracks

shehellonmyspawntilisister

shit like this is why i hesitate to fully commit to transfeminism. some of yall are so assholish about such petty things that do not matter. were literally being systematically killed by a surveillance state but no lets go after headmates who have a different experience with something as complicated and nuanced as plurality.

i generally agree with the movement but jesus christ learn when to just leave it be.

calamity-corner

there it is! "a feminist was too much of a bitch to me so that's why i'm bot a feminist" give a big round of applause folks we got there

shehellonmyspawntilisister

i literally just said i agree with the movement but dislike the community but reading is hard ig :/

calamity-corner

what you said was "i hesitate to fully commit to feminism because some feminists are assholes" but reading your own words is hard ig :/

shehellonmyspawntilisister

i hesitate to fully commit to the transfeminism community because ive seen extremely widespread opinions on both plural people and mixed people that are fucking apalling.

calamity-corner

i just don't know how else to explain to you that someone who is a girl in a body that was afab is cis, definitionally. whether she's a headmate or not, it doesn't matter. "transgender woman" isn't a gender, it's a relationship to womanhood that is based in a lived experience, one that someone afab does not have. do you argue about letting white people talk about being "racialized" because they're plural too? do you hesitate to commit to antiracism because some people are just too mean about white people's headmates? i can't stress enough again that i am a plural transfem. but the headmates i have who are men are, shock horror, not trans men. because our body was not afab, and regardless if whether you're a fictive or a factive or an introject or what, you only have the lived experience of the body you live in. that's how being alive works. this doesn't have to be so hard.

folly-of-alexandria

Someone assigned female at birth cannot have a "transfem headmate" anymore than a white person can have a"black headmate"

When I say "transandrobro" people get mad at me for "singling out" trans men. One time I just said "androbro" and they said "why are you scared to say trans HMMM?"

Human: "Wow, so like, you finished mage training before my great-great-great-great grandmother was even born, isn't that crazy?"

Most normal elf MILF (hungrily): "Ccan I tie your shhoelaces?"

I'm really tired of people outside the UK claiming that JK Rowling's bigotry doesn't extend to trans men and non-binary people. I can't get an autism diagnosis, because I'm scared that it will be used against me to deny me the healthcare I need, as Rowling and her ilk have been spreading the rhetoric that transmascs are just confused autistic girls who are too stupid to know their own gender.

Introducing the hot new writing challenge, the Netflix Challenge, where you ensure your WIP obeys all of Netflix's rules for how shows have to be written for viewers who are distracted on their phone:

Make sure all of your characters are constantly referring to each other by what their relationship is, no matter how deep it gets into the story

Include a recap of the premise and events every 750 words

End abruptly after two chapters, but write a detailed plan for the entire book

doll-shell

it’s really problematic of you to maintain the harmful binary of “you” and “not-you”. literally just join the hive already.
