It’s quite amazing how these people show their asses on LinkedIn and think it makes them look smart, instead of proving that they completely lost touch with reality. It fits the picture that one the very same day they laid of thousands, Microsoft also send out an invitation to hear them pitch genAI at GamesCom. That’s corpo brain on late stage capitalism.

I was once a fan of Nina Paley, because of her activism against copyright and even bought some of her merch. Then I found out that she is a capital-letters TERF.

You can find a “TERFy Archive” with all her transphobic writing on her website, she hosts a transphobic podcast with the subtitle “A TERF and a t-slur walk into a podcast studio” which she uses to promote the “autogynephilia” conspiracy theory, among so, so much more transphobia.

Paley would consider this comment of mine to be “censorship”. As usual with her type she wants to dish out, but doesn’t want to be criticized for it.

Fair point. I remember seeing some tweet or similar with said something in the vein of: “ChatGPT sounds like a middle manager on LinkedIn. No wonder, middle managers think that ChatGPT is intelligent.”

Your submission in “Sharks need no Air” was removed for Hello!

I removed this submission. Yes, we love Blahaj around here, but nonetheless Blahaj isn’t really specific to Femcel Memes. It’d make more sense over on Trans Memes

Thanks for your understanding!.

Worse, LinkedIn.

I am relieved.

I am sorry, I can only squeak.

How gender dysphoria manifests differs from individual to individual, people experience it in different way, particularly in regards to what someone struggles with: Someone may feel more dysphoric in regards to their face; others in regards to their chest;… And yeah, yearning for different genitals is definitely something that meets the criteria for gender dysphoria.

Does that make you trans, nonbinary, something else? That’s something nobody can tell you, because we do not know how strong your feelings are, how much they define you and what you make out of them. That’s why the trans community usually avoids telling other people if they are trans or not - or deny anyone that label who claims it.

If you wish to be trans nonbinary, then you are. If you think, these terms do not fit you, then you are not.

Personally I struggled with similar feelings when I was younger. Fast forward and I am now fully transitioning, because I realized it was “not just that.” I wanted it all. But that’s my way to deal with my feelings. You may chose whatever path suits you and on that path you can try out what this thing or that and cast them off again if they do not feel right. It’s a journey of self-discovery and - for better or worse - it’s all up to you to discover.

Also Mustelids, because Mustelids are hella cute and who can blame nature for wanting to create more cute things?!

For those who want some context: Theosophy has always been a huge part of the New Age movement and the founder of Theosophy, Madame Blavatsky, was a white supremacist. She taught her followers about a “Great White Brotherhood” (aka The Masters) who were racially superior to others. She was also convinced of the existence of superior “root races” (one of them being the Aryans) and various “sub-races”…

Unsurprisingly Theosophy would (for example) merge with the Völkisch movement in Germany (the precursor of the nazi party).

Theosophy with its belief in a secret underground realms, ancient high cultures, lost continents, superior alien races and so on and so forth, was one of the big influences on the late 20th century New Age movement.

Ah, well, better skip “Strange Days”, “12 Monkeys” and “Gattaca” then…

That is a very cute story and you are a good parent.
