I took a 35mg gummy once on accident. I had to call an Uber home, felt like absolute death the whole time, puked my guts out, then crashed asleep. There’s a point where it’s not enjoyable, and I agree that past 10mg is where you start to push that

I’ve been trans for over a decade and have been VERY active in various queer communities across that time. I don’t think I’ve ever met someone who actually uses neopronouns in that time. I’m not denying they exist but they’re certainly rare. The closest was someone who used plural pronouns (we/they), but only when talking in a safe space. Outside that space they use she/her.

What IS fun is using neopronouns in D&D as the DM :) For instance, I often give fey creatures fae/faer pronouns to make them feel otherworldly.

Even the gender/sex distinction isn’t a clear one. When you get into the details biological sex is a very complex topic, and most of the ways you can define someone’s sex are mutable (contrary to popular belief)

The split is also often used as a dogwhistle by conservatives who want to be transphobic in polite society, but that’s another topic altogether.

I consider the identity obsession of Gen Z

Having a non-cishet identity is not exclusively a Gen Z thing? 🧐 We’ve existed forever??? There are queer people of literally all ages

Back to the original topic, the various identities are similar to music genres. They’re useful when discussing queer topics in nuance. If you’re cishet and uninterested in being an ally, they’re not for you, just let it be.

To put it in perspective, someone who doesn’t listen to metal may just consider anything with distorted guitars “metal” and question why subgenres exist, but two metalheads will definitely care greatly about whether a new band is death metal or folk metal, and a metalhead musician might get even more granular in describing a particular style.

I hope when Nazis come from you, you happily step in front of their barrel with a smile on your face. Surely it’s the least selfish thing to do so we can move on to other issues, right? Or would you suddenly care when it’s your own skin in the game

Trans people want to blend into the woodwork. We don’t want to be front and center. The only reason there’s so much focus on us right now is because the Nazi right wants to exterminate us, but thanks for throwing us under the bus like a true neoliberal. Guess we’ll just die then.

They don’t. Republicans want us dead and Democrats don’t want to think about us.

It would probably have to spiral outwards around the Earth like the world’s greatest off-ramp

2S

It means two spirit, it’s an indigenous identity primarily found in Canada

The punisher would shoot them for that and not look back

Like the other person said, bumper stickers are likely to give it away. I used to have a policy that any time one got vandalized I would replace it with two, so I had 5-6 by the time that happened. I was also driving a beater car which I’m certain is the original reason they pulled me over

This is the same police force

My milkshake brings all the bulls to the yard

I eagerly await the day I read the headline we’re all waiting for.

Honestly, there’s multiple headlines we’re all waiting for.

SCPD (Long Island, NY) literally did this to me once. They pulled me over and “interrogated” me for 20-30m on the side of the road. I say “interrogated” because they were putting words in my mouth and making up a narrative, even implying that my sleeping dog was dangerous. Eventually they gave up and let me go without charge.

Another time the fuckers gave me 5 tickets for driving without insurance, while holding my valid insurance in their hand. That was a fun one to fight in court. Spoiler: I won.

I’m a queer Latina

Send them all to El Salvador and sort it out later

Just admit you were at the strip club. It’s less embarrassing. You can frame it as supporting local business.

Or you can trust what real trans people say about their (our) existence, you buttwaffle

You can also do that in TypeScript

readonly a!: Foo;
readonly b = bar.toFoo();

constructor(){
    a = bar.toFoo();
}

It’s only sparkling detention

That’s precisely why I left. I’m a naturalized citizen AND trans, among other protected classes. It’s not safe for me to merely exist.

At least if they do revoke my citizenship I won’t have to pay them shit in taxes
