The wording of this statement suggests that someone put their foot down and prevented these kids from calling it Skibidi Gantry

Each class submitted an entry and a short description of the name they chose. Goudy Room 202 second graders explained their choice: "We chose this name because Windy City is a nickname for Chicago. The other names we thought of didn't have as much to do with Chicago as the Windy City. Chicago is kind of windy--it's windy almost every day. We think people all over Chicago will understand the name when it's put on the Gantry. AND this is the best name we ever heard of!" The winning name will be displayed on the gantry for the duration of the bridge segment installation work, which is expected to be completed in 2025.

Some time ago @rooster made a post along the lines of “there comes a time in every divorced person's life when they realize they forgot to buy a plunger". And while my divorce hasn't quite gone through yet I did just buy a plunger for my new house so she may have helped me dodge a bullet.

Oh lord, apparently Hillary Cass has bought into the conspiracy theory that "sissy hypno porn is turning the kids trans!" It's absolutely infuriating and naked bigotry that anyone pretends she is a neutral, honest, or scientific researcher. I am going to bet within the year that she will blame either George Soros or Bill Gates for the transes, or come out as an anti-vaxxer.

I need a muppet remake of The Blair Witch Project mostly to see a panicked Kermit yelling “Fozzie!” into the dark woods as he hears a distant pained “wocka wocka!”

This is a fun short paper where we looked at our method for performing triaxial Schwarzschild modeling to see if there are obvious inherent biases in our results. Here's a short #science and #astronomy thread! 1/5

There are so many characters whose entire persona is the source of comedy, who are there because their very existence is what's funny.

Men with the characteristics of women.

Them being women-like or identified as such is what makes them gross, ridiculous, laughable. Characters like John Dorian from Scrubs and Lt. Boyle from Brooklyn 99.

The wild thing—the telling thing—is that most of them, perhaps all of them, could be played straight.

If the audience saw the characters as genuine closeted Trans femmes, the entire presentation would be a stark and very painful commentary on how hard it is to survive as a Trans femme. How every natural inclination we have is ridiculed and condemned.

Every time, the writing still works. And the whole series would become a way to show fucking horrible society is to us just for existing.

Cis people: Just sit for a while with that.

I have never before in my life read or felt seen as deeply by a feminism like that from A Short History of Trans Misogyny, and this week on #StainedGlassWoman, we're diving deep into mujerísima to understand exactly why Jules Gill-Peterson's work truly is A Love Letter To The Dolls unlike anything I've ever encountered before.
