I always thought of if wildlife and other nature photographers as a sort of nonviolent trophy hunter. They can spend weeks and even years waiting and searching for the perfect moment.
It’s heroic at times. And not a single shot fired. (Usually)

CW: Genocide
This thread reminds me that I learned earlier this year that the genocide of Indigenous peoples of the Americas by European Colonisers quite likely caused the worst of the Little Ice Age periods by causing farmed land to lay disused:

As a child with undiagnosed ADHD, I was Calvin through and through.
The older I get, my now-diagnosed and Non-binary ass turns more and more into a combination of Calvin’s parents.
@JoeBudden
How do you listen back to yourself in this video and think “Yeah, I really made some good points here. This is gonna tell ‘em.”
You said nothing. All you did was shout over her that she hates men over and over again.
@DailyMirror
Thank you
@Always
for listening to the gentle suggestions from members of the trans community.
There are many loud, angry voices out there who don’t understand what’s happening, but even big corporations sometimes listen to the voices of individuals who need to be heard.

I have never met a fellow trans/ NB person who wouldn’t cut people some slack. All the misgendering I’ve seen in person has gone by mostly unchallenged by the recipient, myself included.
Never seen anyone shout or get aggressive outside of videos, which often obscure context.
Hi! If you found me through watching a Stream of
#AtDeadOfNight
, especially if they revealed the ending of the game, please support the dev by buying it on Steam if you can.
It was entirely self-financed and deserves the sales.

If corrected, just say “sorry” and make the adjustment. It takes time to get it right, we all understand this, and we don’t need a long explanation of how difficult it is to get it right.
It’s hard to get used to for you, but please make the effort, we really appreciate it. 💖
@Akheyre76
There’s something about all the people saying she’s not being racist. All the people saying good on her and why do you have to be so rude.
Something they have in common. I can’t qwhite put my finger on it.
@Dixta
@RadioFreeSkaro
😂😂😂😂 I have some shocking news for you. People who have sex with men... they masturbate too. And Tennant/ Smith/ Eccleston/ Capaldi? Hot.
Just a peek back in to say that I had a meeting with Tim about the At Dead of Night sequel among other things, and you should be very, very excited because it's going to be amazing!

I have ADHD, I have to ask as soon as I remember to, otherwise it’ll take me another month.
If it’s outside your office hours, don’t fucking answer the text, it’s not like it’s a phone call! 🙄

right now. It’s surprisingly busy with people walking, but no one sitting down, bbq’ing, playing sports, anything.
If you don’t live here, you might not understand how weird this sight is on a sunny day.

Pratchett was a great example of someone who doesn't always "get the words right" but has always been on the side of progressing his viewpoint and art to championing the marginalised.
He somehow managed to make an entire series of stories about cops that I still love to this day

Six tomatoes, a small tin of kidney beans, a head of broccoli, one of lettuce... oh heck, I’ll even throw in the packet of four jacket potatoes even though they don’t count as your five a day.
Does this feel appropriate for a family of four to you? Healthy, is it?

I highly doubt she stepped one foot outside the most heavily trafficked tourist spots in each city, but even then the food is clearly better as a standard than the UK/ US.
Less sugar in the sauce/ base/ meat though...

Okay, buddy. It’s worth listening to people sometimes instead of putting up a wall. Let go of some of that bravado and try to really look at yourself sometimes and how you affect those around you. Ask your girlfriend if she honestly thinks your joke here was funny.
@TheMadHatterRVA
@dannynett
If someone misgenders me (which is near constant no matter how femme presenting I am) I either let it pass because I don’t want the argument, simply correct the pronoun, or I jovially correct it to seem as unthreatening as possible.

He was bit hundreds and hundreds of times in his career, but never to my knowledge by something that could genuinely harm him. He had a close one with a Komodo once, but this sort of stuff was routine for him.
100% a legend.

I’ll do you the same kindness someone did me when I made similar jokes as a 20-year-old cultured-Male:
It doesn’t matter that you were joking, it wasn’t funny. Making “ironic” jokes, especially on the web, really doesn’t work in these situations and are not appreciated.
@TheReal_JPMason
@explicitlyksj
@_SJPeace_
I used to think that I was being clever, making jokes “about misogyny”, but really what I was doing was parroting anti-women speech in a mocking tone, and it wasn’t funny. At all. And it did nothing to undermine those I thought I was making fun of.
@EpilepsyTeacher
@anne_theriault
Good news is you can be a feminist and work toward demolishing patriarchal systems without inserting yourself into women’s spaces.
Example: Call out your Male Friends when they’re saying shitty things or making shitty jokes about women.

At one point we said “only humans use tools!” And then apes showed us up for the fools we were.
Then it was “only humans MAKE tools! That’s what I MEANT to say!” then a goddamn BIRD went “hold my beer” and created a hook.

@linkedlibrary
By age 25 I knew at least three women who had been raped... those were the ones who had specifically told me. Then there are the ones who hadn’t.
That’s 11 years ago. That number is a lot higher now.
Boobs gone bye-bye!! 😱
Very weird feeling to now have to wear a binder to play the character I first played 7 years ago!

I always stay away from contributing to conversations with toxic masculinity as the topic. I just keep my mouth closed and listen
What do I look like tryna mansplain masculinity?
So this is me. Huld, she/ her (or any neo), playing age 30-40, 6 foot. Looking for work and representation.
I’ll have to get some proper headshots done.
If you know agents or casting directors looking for grown-ass trans-femmes, send them my way or let me know!

“Not sure that’s necessary, Loke.”
“Pish posh, happy to do it. For the Æsir!”

“How’d it go?”
“We fucked, it was GREAT! You’re welcome!”

Some trans men and non-binary people also have periods. A trans guy emailed Always to politely suggest that they take the symbol off (which they didn’t have on before anyway) and they agreed.
Simple.
@barstoolsports
You are absolute trash for this tweet.
I work as a PT, and half my job is just convincing people that they have a right to be in the gym at all, that they don’t need to feel self-conscious.
And here you are. Trash.
In the bin with you.
TW: fatphobia
This is heartbreaking (but also a wonderful example of being a counterpoint to fatphobia for children) and so, so common.
I have so many friends who’ve inherited their mother’s insecurities through a passing down of thinness pressure.
@WHOREiblePod
Three years ago, though. I’m glad you’ve changed and educated yourselves, but trans people were already being talked about, and loudly, in 2017. We were under constant public attack, as we are now.
You seemed to think you knew about us back then too the way you were going on.

@cottoncandaddy
Addendum: there is no Way To Go except being responsive to what gets your partner off. There is no “move” or specific “technique” that always works. Soz, fellas!
It reminded me that just being present and being out can make a big difference in the long run for ourselves and for others.
This young woman will now not only get very useful life skills, but she’ll go into adulthood knowing her grandmother supports and respects her.
Just gonna drop this here...

Someone recently called themselves an Estronaut, and I immediately took it for myself (or my future self, rather).
I need a similar word for a body fuelled by testosterone. T-bird? Testosterator?
I hate using “Male-bodied” about myself, but alternatives are often long & awk.

@VG247
I play video games and have done so for 33 years, and I care about Diversity.
AND good gameplay with a solid story.
Funny how the latter two are not hampered at all by the former.
This is an art installation, the whole point is to comment on hostile design and monetisation of public spaces.
It’s telling that most people are taking it seriously though, we really have come to a point where people will think this is real.
@kellydigges
How are so many people angry at you for saying "sportsball"?! Are they really that offended by a few geeks being jocular about not having any interest in one of the most popular sporting events of the year? 🙄
@JulieMarieRD
@DarkSecret_FnS
@ziyatong
I feel like that whole test is based on a fundamentally flawed premise. And I think it all stems from a need to put humans above other animals, to make us distinct.
@fromsarahlex
Oh, just wait. In another decade or two, you’re too old to worry about pain, because then you’re expected to be. “Natural Part of aging” they’ll say!
Yay medical care!

This will most likely happen!
This was a policy change that happened in literally a couple of days, with - as far as I can tell from our correspondence - a single day between “oh shit, we need to Change our policies” and this poster.
@pcgamer
Approachability does not equal accessibility. Completely misrepresenting the issue here!
Speeding up levelling etc is not an accessibility issue, come on.
@EpilepsyTeacher
@anne_theriault
You’ve made the first step, you’ve acknowledged that oppression happens. Well done! Just keep pushing the tough conversations with Male Friends. It’s hard to be a feminist ally, but it’s harder to be a woman, so...
Oh hi.

and here are two photos of me as a 13 year old with no idea what’s to come, one of me where I wish I was right now, and one recent one. (I made that scarf btw)
