“The trannies should be able to piss in whatever toilet they want and change their bodies however they want. Why is it my business if some chick has a dick or a guy has a pie? I’m not a trannie or a fag so I don’t care, just give ‘em the medicine they need.”
“This is an LGBT safe space. Of COURSE I fully support individuals who identify as transgender and their right to self-determination! I just think that transitioning is a very serious choice and should be heavily regulated. And there could be a lot of harm in exposing cis children to such topics, so we should be really careful about when it is appropriate to mention trans issues or have too much trans visibility.”
One of the above statements is Problematic and the other is slightly annoying. If we disagree on which is which then working together for a better future is going to get really fucking difficult.
Someone who says they don’t care if dudes wear dresses and makeup is a better ally than someone who says they’re a safe space for women and non-binary people. I am not joking.

funniest thing about my orpheus and euydice post is that i’ve seen multiple people now respond to it as if gideon is orpheus, when gideon is very obviously eurydice.
that’s the thing about gideon. she’s eurydice and she’s sleeping beauty and she’s the prince(ss) in the tower and she’s also a butch with a sword. when she has any degree of agency she loves to be the hero but when she’s trapped by outside forces she always ends up playing the damsel.
the obvious flip-side to this is that harrow has almost never really needed to be protected. she’s been victimized plenty, but she’s been very proactive in dealing with situations. she looks frail and bleeds from interesting places more than she really should, but she plays the hero. she’s orpheus walking into hell. she’s the prince discovering the glass coffin. and she might’ve been, but wasn’t, the hero come to save gideon from the tower.
this is very cool and interesting and should be incorporated into fantasy aus more often.

Fortnight should be two nights. Fortweek should be two weeks. You agree.
Thus would allow us to disambiguate “bimonthly” into “twice monthly” and “fortmonthly”.
#but fort- doesn’t mean two#fort- means FOURTEEN#fourteen nights. two weeks. fortnight
Hmm. Proposal withdrawn. Sorry bimonthly meeting schedulers.
#once again fighting the good fight by pointing out that SEMIannual means twice a year#making biannual every other year#and thus the right term should be semimonthly
Excellent point. Here you go bimonthly meeting schedulers.

Cannot believe I am seeing people getting their tits bent out of joint about a man taking his daughter into a women’s room. That shit was like, completely normal when I was a kid. We really have taken a flying leap backwards as a society into the Cootie Zone
“Men don’t belong in the women’s room” is in fact a subordinate social imperative to “children should be kept an eye on so they don’t get hurt” and especially when you’re talking about a toddler, most men’s rooms don’t have changing stations or suchlike. Morons
It should really not go without comment that afaik this is a black man taking care of his daughter, racism is a factor in people making a big stink about this and I’m not really gonna let the ~daughters of the witches you couldn’t burn~ forget that their actual grandmothers probably got pissy about integrated washrooms
