It’s really sinister to bully a group aggressively and then point when their mental health falters to justify the bullying.

It was intentional. WCK coordinated with the IDF on the route plan.

Not surprised the state responsible for Mitch McConnell is really good at voting counter to its best interests.

Really hope there will be follow-up call to action and education on civic engagement and organizing. But not counting on it.

I used to be a researcher in hypoxia and wanted to clarify this for folks.

The way your brain and body detect low oxygen is indirectly via the drop in pH, or increase in acidity, that high carbon dioxide causes. They call this hypercapnia. Without hypercapnia, there’s none of the pain or distress of asphyxiation because your body can’t actually detect oxygen or its displacement directly.

At 78%, nitrogen is the overwhelming majority of air you breathe.

After 1-2 breaths of 100% nitrogen, humans lose consciousness.

This is why working with inert gases is so dangerous - you’ll asphyxiate without even knowing you entered a room without enough oxygen to sustain life. Had to do a whole training to get our liquid nitrogen tank into a smaller animal isolation room for our study for this exact reason.

If I had to choose a way to die, I’d choose nitrogen displacement without question.

How is existing as a transgender person pornographic or obscene? Is it not well-known that trans people are generally more private about their bodies and sex lives than the general population?

There isn’t even a cogent reason provided for what problem is being caused by trans folks. Presumably it’s the threat to the patriarchy gender variance poses, but idk why they don’t say that part out loud.

This really shouldn’t be grounds for termination. What people do off the clock is their business.

This really is the trajectory for most unwanted children.

No heritable resources, a fuck ton of trauma, and unaffordable healthcare leads to lifelong difficulties finding and retaining work with no hope of mental health care to fix the central issue.

Oh I’m sure you would have warm, fuzzy feelings if your government decimated your city and you had no agency to leave. Lack of clean water, food, and medical aid amidst ongoing death and destruction would only endear them to you further, but of course!

The only silver lining I can find is a bit selfish, but it’s really nice that the trans population of MN is growing explosively. Can’t even leave the house in the metro without seeing other GNC folks.

Yeah I get nauseated any time I see that fucking URL - I won’t touch the content on principle. The only reasons to be concerned about population decline are sociopathic (I.e. economic power or imperialism). Like if you actually fucking cared about the longevity of humanity or biodiversity, you’d be advocating for human depopulation.

In your expert opinion, which boots are the tastiest?

This isn’t a wealth tax, it’s a tweak to income tax.

The rich don’t gain wealth through income.

Capital gains should be taxed at least as hard as income.

I really wish workers had enough organizing power to yeet these duplicitous assholes. Why can’t we have candidates who actually fucking care about bettering our circumstances?
