Cis people, as a trans person, you can do me two favours: 1) When you see someone being anti-trans, don't debate them; laugh at them, insult them, and tell them to shut the fuck up 2) If they say anything which makes you stop and think, ask a trans person about it

"It's certainly weighed down by technical issues, a lackluster main story, and some poor enemy variety"

Cool how trans people are denied transition even though it has a 95%+ success rate and fat people are prescribed weight loss even though it has a 95%+ failure rate. Sure would like to be treated less like shit by the medical profession!

Quick reminder that Hogwarts Legacy's main plot involves a goblin-led faction who abduct kids and want to use the (child) main character's blood for a ritual to destroy their enemies. When people said it was Blood Libel: The Game they weren't exaggerating! At all!!

Like the fact that the dogs could have moved into the no shock zone is irrelevant because there was no sensible way they could have reached that conclusion. Conscious entities capable of knowledge know only what *they* know, they don't know what *you* know!

So I have sensory processing issues, which means if a kid starts screaming I feel it. Most of the time it's on trains. You know what I do on trains? Fuckin' nothing. I don't look at them, I don't react to them, I don't give any sign that they're there. It's not their fault

Like slice it any way you want but Rita in particular and (I assume) Rowling's female villains in general are being demeaned by saying "this is a woman who looks like a man". I feel like the most straightforward reading of that is transmisogyny in every case!

@AndromedaPip @Tankgorl You are absolutely right. Trans people are thousands of years old and were very often accepted as their genders in their societies Transphobia, on the other hand, is a modern invention designed to defend a gender structure which is advantageous to the current power structure

Like I'm not saying dogs are rational actors but the concept of learned helplessness initially derived from dogs has now been applied to humans so I feel pretty comfortable turning the tables. They don't *think*, they don't *reason*. But they *learn*.

A thing about debating trans rights "on the basis of science" is that pro-trans papers generally actually passed pretty stringent and hostile peer review, whereas anti-trans papers are published by a small circle of journals whose EICs all have 1 degree of separation from TERFs

Hi @BHLexington ! Apparently you silently cancelled an appointment already booked by a friend of mine who has a rare and extremely dangerous genetic disease because "we don't see transgender cases". Explain immediately

I realised a while that pathological "black-and-white thinking" isn't actually something autistics do β€” it's a hostile way of describing autistics correctly identifying things as simple that allistics would like to pretend are very complex indeed That feels of a piece with this

The absolute funniest shit here is that Cassandra is canonically a trans woman so she could very well be calling Rose clocky
