• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨ICE Supreme Commander spotted in Minneapolis⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Heinlein was a Cold Warrior who hated commies. I think that is the most important lens you need to see his work through.

  He got injured before he saw combat and had a Long convalescent period, so there definitely is a bit of a chip on his shoulder with respect to honor cultures and willingness to fight.

  I think he was also gender queer in some deep way. You don’t accidentally write a novel about an older writer who, through an absurd sequence of events, gets his brain transplanted into the body of an extremely attractive younger woman. There is a lot of criticism about his recurrent “Heinlein heroine”, and I think she might actually be a self insert.

  It’s just a variation on Christianity.

  Preachers prey on people like that all the time and it’s ok because it’s privileged superstition. Replace “trump” with “Jesus” and that’s the story of millions and millions of people.

  They’re not even trying. Schumer is doing it right in public and thinks it’s cute.

  AIPAC and a few dozen rich people tell the RNC, the DNC, the supreme court, and the president what to do.

  The reason it seems like the democrats are complicit is because, at the leadership level, they are.

  Schumer and Jeffries are pro genocide in Gaza and pro-ICE because their future plans for America also involve genocide.

  All other outcomes are a collaborative aesthetic exploration of a game tree subject to a variety of constraints.

  The joy of the game, and indeed the value of the game, does not consist simply of winning. Even in go.

  It’s always been that good. Good androgynous bone structure is good androgynous bone structure, she lucked out and would be pretty whichever hormones she ended up on.

  I’ve only done hrt and beard removall, don’t wear makeup or pluck my eyebrows. About year 4 my old drivers licenses no longer looked like me, they looked like my sad cousin.

  I happen to be built like a linebacker so people still “sir” me in person sometimes, particularly if I’m wearing a hoodie, but you would not know I was born with a nutsack from looking at my face (and I didn’t start hormones until I was in my mid 40s).

  I know staggeringly gorgeous trans girls in their twenties, you’d never even know. I guarantee you’ve turned your head at a trans girl (and/or ogled a trans dude) and had no idea.

  A lot of people come across way better in person than via text. Also, everybody takes their best photos and puts them up so when you meet them, they always look a little different than you expected, and that’s always a moment of awkwardness. If you meet someone in person they have no priors and it can just be you. Apps can work too, but the ghosting is a constant emotional drain.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Anon tells a true story⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Yup, me too. They’re so fucking intense compared to normies.

  All those laws are only enforced against disfavored groups.

  Rich people got to engage in all the Epstein stuff and are all still free.

  Elon can create an industrial child porn machine and all the governments are totally unbothered.

  Nah some birds sing. Chickens make the kinds of expressions you’re talking about, with a surprising range of emotional intensities, but they don’t sing.

  Many birds have artistic competitions before and during mate selection, so probably.

  I’m allowed to have eyes to see both that the president is a child rapist and that the democrats also suck.

  Just because I’m not on my knees genuflecting in front of Chuck Schumer doesn’t make me a child abuse denier.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨With how the republican party work in 10 years the presidential candidate will be an open pedophile and they will say they defeated wokeness.⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  This mass abuse would not have been covered up for 40 years if it was not inclusive of elite actors across the board.

  And “we have scientifically calibrated how to be exactly epsilon less horrible than the republicans” has been the Democratic strategy since the 1990s.

  Look at the UK; Labour is a preview of what the next “democratic” regime in the US will look like.

  A BIG thing about OCD is that LMFT’s (your standard therapist) can’t diagnose it! You need to see a psychiatrist to get a diagnosis.

  It’s made a huge difference for multiple people in my family once the first one of us got diagnosed.
