i think fundamentally i'm gender-critical because i'm an athiest. i don't believe in souls. "i was Meant to be the opposite gender" wdym 'meant'? by whose design? gender theory is a set of beliefs i don't believe in. and that's why it's so frustrating that it's framed as being hateful and spiteful because like. no i just don't believe you are who you say you are. i don't believe you have a "woman soul" or whatever because i don't believe that's a thing. and in my mind, what you're doing is hateful, as my oppressor pretending to be a member of the oppressed class. i refuse to play by the rules of your ideology, just like i don't follow the bible because i'm not christian, or i don't follow a jain diet because i'm not jain, or i don't pray or fast on muslim holidays because i'm not muslim. ​and if you do believe in woman souls in male bodies, i don't think you should be thrown in jail for a thought crime or whatever, but i do think you're a misogynist, just like members of any other patriarchal religion

it’s a beautiful day to check out a book from the library

its a beautiful day to return a book to the library unread after it auto renews 3 times

The library says thank you for boosting our circulation stats and the book will still be here later if you want it another time <3

Multiple Prides being canceled because they didn't get corporate sponsorships is fucking crazy. How are you going to say, unabashed, that you are sponsored almost entirely by corporate money. I thought Pride was about homosexual people being out and proud. What do you need the money for? Why do you need money to walk down the street?

that one tweet that’s like “90% of posts online can simply be responded with I Don’t Think You Should Be Talking About Women Like That”

I learned two new words today and I’m sad

It’s not even a book. It’s a manifesto, an essay. It’s bite-sized.
