when someone tells you they might be trans, or that they want to try out different pronouns or a different name, the only thing anyone should be doing (especially cis people) is being supportive

it can be very, very difficult to accept something is off with your gender, but it can be extremely rewarding. and having someone list off the risks/problems with it right off the bat isn't concern for one's safety, it's bigotry.

1970s: gay teachers? they'll molest kids!

1980s: gays in your home? they'll molest kids!

1990s: gays adopting? they'll molest kids!

2000s: gay marriage? they'll molest kids!

2010s: transfolk using restrooms? they'll molest kids!

2017: What's the big deal with politicians molesting kids

I like this shitposting about what a hacker is because we need to acknowledge that we live in the future, and hacking is something everybody can and should do

if we act like old nerds did and make Nerd stuff For Nerds, and talk about how cool we are for being nerds that fucking sucks, let farmers be hackers, let grandmothers be hackers, let union leaders be hackers

Parents! Look out for slang your teens might be using to talk about the new republican tax plan:

LOL: lots of layoffs
LMAO: launder my assets offshore
FFS: fiscally feudal society
BTW: buttress the wealthy
TFW: tax foolish workers
BRB: buy roubles, bitch

It's not just you. You're not alone.

it's annoying when buses and malls and stuff are so heavily heated in winter because ya know, I'm wearing all my winter clothes, I'm melting into a puddle in here.
and unlike in summer, the sweat is gonna make me way too cold later once I'm in a normally heated place/take my coat off, and then I'll be freezing even inside.

I posted to facebook today:

Today is a day where remember those we've lost. There is no definitive list, no complete count, no way to even contemplate how many of our trans siblings have passed away over the past year without being overwhelmed by grief.

Behind every name is a story, intricate and beautiful, but the stories ended too soon. We cannot bring back them back, but we can remember them, and let their names live on as reminders of what we are fighting for.

We are fighting to live.

brushing your teeth has a really terrible UX. no feedback whatsoever. you just have to follow the instructions and hope you're doing it right. the really satisfying sound design that everyone's familiar with is actually NOT present when you're brushing properly. totally counter-intuitive. the sound design for proper brushing is almost non-existent. the visuals are mundane at best and horrifying at worst. the whole concept needs to be re-imagined imo
