Alright, I watched it. And I'll bite:
What is a woman?
An adult human female — almost all of the time.
Almost invariably, but not invariably. When it comes to human beings... there's a lot of variance. Allowing for variance is the only viable option. The alternative—disallowing variance—will ultimately require constant terror and violence to enforce. Because variance is hardwired.

I've never understood why gun owners themselves don't want the bar for gun ownership set high. If owning a gun required rigorous training, background checks, and licensing, you would hear that someone owned a gun and think, "That's someone I want around in an emergency."
Then even people who didn't like guns would associate gun ownership with safety, and security. But in a society where literally any idiot can buy a gun—where teenagers can open carry—you don't hear that someone owns a gun and think, "That's someone I want around in an emergency."

It's not just that gay bars are supposed to be a safe space.
People who hate queer people want us to keep it private. Behind closed doors. Someplace they don't have to see it. And the doors of a gay bar are doors we keep it behind. A place we can go and be together and not bother *them* with the fact of our existence.

"For your own safety, and to spare you the horrors of this disease, you might wanna think about maybe dialing it back for a few weeks while we roll the vaccine out." That's not discrimination. That's not homophobia. That's treating adult gay men like... adults.
That's giving gay men the information we need to make informed choices. Any gay man who can't see that... isn't a grownup.

They think they're gonna drag us back to the days when the only thing a gay kid could find in school about homosexuality was a clinical definition in a dictionary. But kids have phones in their pockets. They carry them around. At school. Gay kids will find what they need.
So libs are pushing vaccine mandates in a reverse psychology triple backflip double secret probation effort to convince MAGA voters not to get vaccinated so that they'll all die and Texas will turn blue and we won't have to take their guns because they'll be too dead to use them.
Wish I was making it up:
I don't know if I have the ability to absorb another show where teenagers played by thirty year olds break out in song in a high school cafeteria.
I'm not sure what our reaction is supposed to be. "Oh, singing! In a high school cafeteria! And elaborately choreographed dancing! I didn't expect that! I am both surprised and charmed!"
This seems... potentially problematic. Apple will be scanning photos on your phone for "known" images of child porn. "It will also scan messages sent using Apple’s iMessage service for text and photos that are inappropriate for minors."

The story in the Washington Post suggests Apple will only be flagging/reporting inappropriate text messages that are sent to minors.
Oh hey look a social media influencer who wants to ride her husband's supposed/imaginary porn addiction to TikTok stardom — thinking this guy might have a public humiliation kink and he's playing a game of four-dimensional kink chess against his wife?
You are not enough. No one is. Even if you're successfully and effortlessly monogamous, even if you two never watch porn, pretending you're enough for your partner or that they're enough for you places an unnecessary strain on a relationship.

The big news here is that Anita Bryant is still alive.
We talk a lot about queer kids being bullied by their peers, by their classmates. But for queer kids with with homophobic or transphobic parents... the worst bullies they encounter are at home. For many queers kids school is a refuge from the bullies at home.
School is where some queer kids can let their guards down—even if just for a moment. They can find other queer kids to connect with. At school they don't have to police every gesture or inflection at all times. They can risk asking someone to use the right pronoun.

I want to say, "I challenge anyone to listen to this interview @jessesingal did with youth-gender clinician Dr. Erica Anderson and tell me he's transphobic," but I know people will continue to insist he's transphobic. But he isn't.

I went through this myself a decade ago—people insisting I was transphobic. I was assaulted by people who insisted I was transphobic. People who weirdly invested in me being transphobic. It was an article of faith. I'm not.
Weird that Chris Pine and Wonder Woman never thought, hey, where'd that other guy's soul go? The guy whose body Chris Pine was in? If it was me—if I was Chris Pine—I would've worried about where he went and whether I was inconveniencing him.
And Wonder Woman fucked Steve when she was in that other dude's body. And then she ran into that other dude near the end and smiled like, "I fucked you but you don't know because you were basically unconscious at the time since your body was possessed by my dead lover's soul."

If Anthony Fauci isn't allowed to do his job... what good is keeping it? It's time for him to resign and give a speech —in prime time—about what we need to do and why we're not doing it and the price we're paying for not doing it.
washingtonpost.com/world/2020/06/…
An argument could be made—an argument was made—for Fauci to stay in place and work around Trump. That's no longer possible. He's been silenced and sidelined. By failing to resign in protest Fauci has made himself complicit in the Trump administration's failures

Old enough to remember when rightwing Christian assholes accused gay men who were going to gay bars despite AIDS of being reckless, irresponsible, and immoral because we might get ourselves sick.
Now rightwing Christian assholes—some of the same ones—are insisting everyone has to go back to bars, restaurants, gyms, churches, etc., even though you might get yourself and everyone you know sick.

Conservatives attack and disparage women, queers, POC, immigrants, birth control users, non-Christians, liberals, football players, basketball players, singers, actors, Hollywood, people who live in cities and blue states... and then sit there wondering why no one likes them.

They bombard millions of Americans daily with disrespect and legislative attacks. Wins you elections, it seems, but doesn’t win you many friends.
