Here is how the "biological definitions only!" crowd define "mom". Just sayin'.

"trans people are trans" trans people: "ok" "cis people are cis" cis people:

Maybe we should call them atransgender, atrans for short. Except my phone keeps autocorrecting with a space. (They're not objecting to cis specifically, they're objecting to being anything other than the unstated default.)

Meanwhile, while we're spending obscene amounts of money to save one foolhardy billionaire and four acquaintances, this is happening.

As I was saying: This is two of them showing what they're REALLY upset about. Spoiler alert: It's not "cis" specifically, it's ANY TERM AT ALL. (And yes, they're both Blue Checks.)

My son is cisgender. My spouse is cisgender. Almost everyone in my life is cisgender. In my experience, the people who wants to consider cisgender a slur are the people who want the right to dehumanize trans people with impunity. I have slurs for them, but it's not "cisgender."

The oft-repeated claim that "unlike trans, cis is used as a slur" seems to be oblivious to the fact that trans IS actively used as a slur, and has been used in that way for decades. But then, ANY word can be used as a slur. We can't ban all the words.

I don't think this is ruined. It sounds like a Queercore PF cover band. If Scissor Sisters can cover Comfortably Numb, we can make Pink Flood happen.

Imagine in 400 years schoolchildren reading movie scripts like "Citizen Kane" without seeing the film. It's not a matter of Shakespeare being a bad writer, it's a matter of why Shakespeare was writing in the first place.

PSA: Social contagion is NOT realizing who you are because you meet someone similar. Seeing yourself in the world often saves lives. This applies to being gay, being trans, being neurodivergent... The people who want to erase these from public dialogue would erase people.

This is what the rich and their Pick Mes think is... Funny, I presume. Anyway, this is why some of us were good with two billionaires getting crushed by the ocean. This is full out class warfare.

Even more than usual, Shapiro looks like a malfunctioning animatronic in this. I think it might be time for a service call.

Ahhh.. helpful, thanks guys. (You forgot the porn bots tho🫤)

Wait... women's toilets were designed "to keep men out"? What? I thought they were just designed so men and women didn't pee in the same place. And if we're so culturally focused on keeping men out of certain spaces, why do we mock cultures that do it much more consistently?

Disney is remaking a movie about an adult man who kisses a dead teenager when he comes across her funeral, but by all means, get worked up because you think Peter Dinklage's comment ruined the casting.

Autistic people may initially be extra quiet upon entering new environments. We often like to observe and assess places before speaking. This enables us to discern the key rules and etiquette most people intuit upon arrival but we do not. It helps us to put our best foot forward.

"Country music fans can't be racist because half a century ago there was one Black country music star." isn't a compelling argument.
