I am outraged my rep isn't on the list of cosponsors, so I gave her a call. You should call your rep too. It doesn't matter if it doesn't pass.

looking back, i tried to do the best with the gender i was dealt because i legit didnā€™t know i had any other options. i was such a depressed little kid & teenager though. i was extremely dysphoric & had no way to understand what was happening. forcing any child to experience that pain is evil.

The one downside of not having a proper computer science education is you learn about things like condition variables existing *way* too late

Apropos of nothing Iā€™m reminded of that supernatural episode: Dean: How many people die in the crossfire, huh? A million? Five? Ten? Zachariah: Probably more. If Lucifer goes unchecked, you know how many will die? All of them. He will roast the planet alive.

Not sure how you would even do it the other way around? Like, if a function blocks it blocks. How do you teach it to not block from your async shell?

I canā€™t believe that I have to explain that not liking it when people attack his speech impediment isnā€™t the same as supporting every single thing he has ever done.

As someone with a speech impediment: I love the way people are constantly attacking every little mistake Biden makes when talking. Makes me feel real good about something Iā€™ve had my entire life.

Fuck this. Fuck everything. You can have super-duper Democratic president and Senate, and it doesn't matter a bit, because last century someone appointed asshole judges for lifetime positions.

Keeping Trump out of the White House isnā€™t the only thing that needs doing and it isnā€™t enough to solve all problems facing the country & world but if it isnā€™t done then all those problems get exponentially worse in ways I donā€™t even know how to express and it scares me when people pretend otherwise

Also also: people should be upset whenever an authority figure attempts to exert control over them without good reason. Itā€™s not about the smut, itā€™s about the principle of the matter.

The thing with asking people to be patient for a few decades while Good Guys try to fix the past 24+ years is that it means asking people to be ok w/ there being people who spend their life as, at best, second class citizens. I _know_ that everyone knows that, but it deserves to be called out.

He even switched mid-sentence! Then switched back to misgendering me! No apology, no acknowledgment, just flagrant disrespect.

Is it worth reporting my doctor who stood there and misgendered me a dozen+ times, in front of me, while talking to his MA? The more I think about it the worse it makes me feel.

Queer people: please stop assigning value to yourself or others based on the amount and severity of oppression received. Do you not understand how much power that gives our oppressors and how it incentivizes division?

What do you think about automatically expiring permissions? I.e, you get special privilege (limited in scope) for X minutes and must renew it to continue using it (with justification)?
