This post is addressing a specific TERF. Iโm pretty sure she hate-reads me, and I think itโs important to note that, and I want to be very clear on this:
I still think youโre akin to a bedbug or a pubic louse.
You come at the queen or her friends, you better not miss, asshole.

Me: Good point. Pointing a gun at people is just how they say โhelloโ there.

I see your smirky sailor, and raise you a smirky stageworker / theater lighting tech.
It's definitely one of those skills when you see someone doing it wrong it's a hard fight not to fling yourself across the room and tackle them "NO NO NO NO NO! WRONG WRONG WRONG! GIMME THAT"

Reddit can be a useful knowledge base, but there are certain subject areas where the consensus voice will confidently, clearly, emphatically state something that is simply wrong.
My current irritation is r/sailing, which has a large number of people who have clearly never sailed beyond the yacht club bar, or maybe a small lake, and have precisely zero clue about the interplay between wind and current (because they never experience the latter), spouting off bullshit with authority.
And thereโs no point arguing with them, but my god, the extent to which they are smug about being wrong is irritating as fuck.
Just looked at M&S Per Una for the first time in a decade and, OMG you guys, itโs got really really gay.
Utterly, profoundly, homosexual.

@Maria Karlsen When I say none of it makes any difference, I'm specifically talking about the effect individual actions have on climate change. To a first approximation, this is zero, and has little scope for it to be any other number.
I agree that we can very definitely make a difference in how people feel, and this is the source of my complaint: the constant stream of "we are all going to die, because we are filthy eco-sinners" articles just make people feel like shit.
It's basically doom and gloom protestantism, but with the climate playing the role of their god.

To be honest it's such a simple marque it does not surprise me that it's already in use. I would have expected some social media business to have used it by now. Trying to find even complex names that are unique is very challenging.

@Pyroรฉaon ๐ณ๏ธโโง๏ธ @Essjay (she / her) ๐ณ๏ธโ๐ It was Ruth Hunt who made them openly advocate for trans people.
I think it took a very heavy toll on her. I have a great deal of respect for Ruth, and I think her force of will was maybe more important than any of us (her included) realised.

Apparently there are ongoing repercussions from a comparison I made some time ago between TERFs and pubic lice.
My only regret is that TERFsโ metabolisms keep going if you drench them in dimethicone.
reshared this
So the background here is that I referred to TERFs as pests that are particularly recalcitrant, like pubic lice or bedbugs.
And various people liked the post, including some who are members or a UK political party.
And some pubic louse with nothing better to do is complaining about them because they liked my post.
And said pubic louse got told to go piss into the wind by the complaints process.
So instead of taking the hint that everyone hates them and all their bullshit works, they set out to prove me right by just being UTTERLY FUCKING UNABLE TO JUST PISS OFF AND LEAVE PEOPLE IN PEACE.
Iโm sure the irony of this situation is lost on them. Silly fucker.
She must really hate it that I resigned from said party and then emigrated to get away from the likes of her and their bullshit, and as a result there is nothing they can do to get at me other than bother my friends.
I mean, I am annoyed on behalf of my friends, but I also appear to have triple residency now: Portugal, the UK, and rent-free in their heads.

Oh, this is funky! Reading a book with the multi focal contact lenses in. If I close one eye, the page has blurred and sharp bits in a chessboard type pattern. If I open both, the whole thing is sharp.
Clever brain.

@Rachel Lawson Yeah. Itโs different to glasses where you can look around to change which bit you get. With contacts, they move with your eye, so, looking around makes no difference. You get distance vision in some bits and close vision in others. After a while, the brain sorts this out.
Iโm still getting used to it.
