i think aiming to make college institutions places of learning that are sustainable and aren't gruesome mills that crush the the human body, mind, and soul in the name of obtaining a degree is kinda like trying to get the united states to not be the vanguard of global white supremacy. to do such things would be to change them so much that they functionally no longer exist. but so long as you have it in mind to change the fundamental nature of these things, you're going to be lead to reformist methods that won't actually end the suffering you're rightfully fighting against.

"why don't trans women do any domestic labor" is right up there with "why do trans women never date each other" in terms of questions that show that you know nothing about trans women. except in this case the idea that trans women don't do domestic labor is instrumental in maintaining the social hierarchy that keeps trans women doing domestic labor. the idea that trans women are male-socialized and therefore predisposed to exploit the domestic labor of people who are female-socialized keeps trans women in the insecure position of having to prove themselves by taking on historically feminine domestic roles. the reification of economic feminist analysis into biological/socially-essential categories presents the perfect opportunity for tme partners & roommates to benefit from exactly the type of economic exploitation being criticized.

any work that looks as if it may have incorporated the use of a sufficiently advanced algorithm is slop but my dnd liveplay podcasts are modern master storytelling. aaand post.

this is the freaking hardest thing i ever saw
