since dawn, israel has killed at least 64 people in strikes targeting overcrowded homes and displacement tents — one of the deadliest mornings in Gaza since the genoc/de resumed last month.

In other horrifying news, the Supreme Court will be hearing a case to decide if conversion therapy will be allowed to be used on queer and trans individuals, including minors.

The case comes from Colorado, from Christian therapist who states that the ban on conversion therapy restricts free speech.

The case will not be heard until late 2025, but this is one of those times to spread the word that this is happening now.

As always, remember to protect our queer and trans community members. They need more support now more than ever.

Edit: I made a more detailed post with some more info about the case if anyone is interested

Looking more like a checklist these days. I want off this ride. 😭

i think i really do hate “man who drives big shiny pickup truck” more than literally any other genre of person. like i already hate men but when i see one in a pickup truck i literally start killing him in my mind like i scare myself sometimes with how deeply and violently i hate them

I feel like ppl get bogged down in semantics so let me make it real simple for you. A zionist is someone who supports the state of Israel. Zionism is the belief that a Jewish ethnostate called Israel should be developed in the Levant region (Palestine and Lebanon and Syria) regardless of the existence of Palestine, Syria and Lebanon and their people. When any pro-Palestine person says someone is a Zionist, that's not a synonym for Jewish, nor is another word for "person I don't like". When we call someone a zionist it's because they support the existence of Israel as a colony. And just so we're clear: it does not matter if a zionist says they're sad about Palestinian suffering or they want to "live in peace" with Palestinians because as long as they support the existence of a colonial ethnostate called Israel then they're still doing Zionism. If I came to your house and just started living there and tried to starve you out and torture you so you would leave your house, it wouldn't matter that I felt "sorry" for you because I'm the reason you're suffering at all. That's why when you try and say "well, Neil Druckman says he wants the war to stop" that doesn't matter. He's still a zionist. He still wants Israel to exist as a colonial state which will always be at the expense of Palestinians. Do not fall for liberal Zionists. Get it in your fucking head that there's no "progressive" Zionism because there's no "progressive" way to support a state that necessitates the elimination of whole peoples.

Reminder: you can always just stop hating and being an asshole. You'll probably even feel better about yourself.

it’s just this recent wave of “all sexual expression is good even the problematic ones!” is crazy to me like we used to be mad about the song Blurred Lines and call it blatant expression of misogyny and rape apologia, even though it’s art. like i think it’s fine to call shallow misogynist art shallow and misogynist and i think it’s fine to deplatform it

i think it’s extremely telling how terfs & radfems immediately jump to sexual degradation when they try to insult me for supporting trans women, it’s always something about how i’m sucking dick or letting men control me w some sexual euphemism. like that’s such an extremely abnormal thing to jump to that it says SO MUCH MORE about that person’s weird psychosexual obsession with trans women than it does about me. it also shows how they’ve internalized how women are degraded by men and they employ it against trans women and cis women they dislike, which makes it so so apparent that they don’t have any principles besides wanting to be the one punching down and oppressing rather than on the receiving end of it, so they take it out on “traitors” and “infiltrators” instead of identifying and thinking about why sexual degradation is such a potent tool of oppression in basically any form. monkey see monkey do. they want to be the oppressor so they gladly take up the language of the oppressor to use it to oppress and shame
