have you met many quants? a large number of them are like that, in much the same way that crypto currency people are (in fact, i think the crypto people are like that because they are poorly copying the quants).

usually the bits here are somewhat over the top, but this is a very modest proposal.

apologies for not memeing on this, but the parallel that immediately comes to mind is when Kavanaugh was getting confirmed, he said that Roe v Wade was “settled law”. she is absolutely going to enact some anti-trans bullshit.

here is a partial critique i read of whipping girl many years ago which has stuck with me Deconstructing Whipping Girl By b. binaohan

these issues that you highlight seem strongly tied to Serano’s bioessentialist understanding of gender, which (iirc) is whatever in-born tendencies that you have one way or another. once you start trying to find gender in biology, you quickly end up reproducing the biologization of gender that is the basis of modern era misogyny because gender was one of the driving ideologies that shaped the biological study in the first place.

once you make that connection, it becomes more clear where the “binary-phobia” stuff comes from. it’s literally just a reformulation of colonial era justification of eradicating native genders that the colonizers didn’t like. and to get out ahead of the obvious misreading, white non-binary people in the US/europe are not colonized. capital would just generally prefer to be able to easily sort everyone into 2 easily distinguishable categories with pre-defined social positions.

i’m so tired of libs (especially “leftists”) saying things like this are a win, or even that this is a “pretty significant shift in the status quo” (literally quoting one of them) because they might consider restricting arm transfers. another one i saw mentioned potential domestic military raids as a reason not to vote for Trump. the american left is fucking cooked. willing to vote for a genocide to save themselves is pure cowardice.

yeah, i do

this is how you get no-call/no-shows

clearly foreign adversaries are trying to sap and impurify our precious bodily fluids

i know at one point they were quite proud to have a federal (DHS i think?) cybersecurity department on there. like, there was an announcement. this was a couple years ago, so i guess stuff may have changed since then, but i don’t trust like that.
