@LakotaMan1 @WgarNews It was both. To Europeans, it
WAS a discovery. New knowledge to them of lands and peoples, the word discovery does apply. And they then… invaded. They didn’t have to do that. Literally they chose violence instead of doing diplomacy like decent humans. So yah definitely both

@RiordanLeigh @BumpstockBarbie @Amyisthebomb @AlyssaResister @arigsby19 @JoJoFromJerz Oh so that’s the hair you Americans are splitting now? I mean… If it saves lives, I’m all for it, but everywhere else they’re still called non-viable PREGNANCIES, and the treatment is called abortion

[Hlif @justaqueernerd]

@TommiLin @BumpstockBarbie @Amyisthebomb @AlyssaResister @arigsby19 @JoJoFromJerz I’m guessing they don’t have the facilities to do it safely? Idk, I’m Australian, we don’t have PP here. I do know not all PP sites have all services, and that ectopic pregnancy can only be treated with medication safely if the patient is stable. Those can go bad FAST.

[Hlif @justaqueernerd]

@BumpstockBarbie @Amyisthebomb @AlyssaResister @arigsby19 @JoJoFromJerz I do cope. You’re the one claiming ectopic pregnancy treatment isn’t an abortion. It is. And it’s still absolutely necessary.

[Hlif @justaqueernerd]

@BumpstockBarbie @Amyisthebomb @AlyssaResister @arigsby19 @JoJoFromJerz That “removal” IS a form of abortion dressed up to placate anti-abortionists and save lives. Miscarriages are, medically speaking, spontaneous abortions. But that wording scares people so they use a different one. It’s still all abortion, and the medics know it.

@phat3lvis @kimhasamigraine Please note that seeking enforcement is a related but separate, and very thorny, issue. If you don’t want this, tell her so and put some hard boundaries in place. If she belittles you over it or crosses boundaries, time for a breakup, a visit to cops and/or a DVO. I’m so sorry ❤️

[Hlif @justaqueernerd]

@phat3lvis @kimhasamigraine Your situation may not technically be rape (depending on the law where you are) but it IS ABSOLUTELY sexual assault UNLESS you have both discussed it prior AND you have given free and fully informed consent to her doing this. Sounds pretty fkn rapey though.

[Hlif @justaqueernerd]

@RickMiller1011 @WorldByWolf @EdKrassen Of course it’s not, but if you have one you’re 8x as likely to be the other. That science has been done. Also fyi not all trans folk experience dysphoria (thank goodness)

[Hlif @justaqueernerd]

@MFWitches Nah, I was only 8. Barely knew what month it was at any given time

[Hlif @justaqueernerd]

@jason_king72 @AmyRemeikis It’s not wage driven inflation though, it’s corporate profit driven inflation. I hate to say it, but we need essential goods price controls

[Hlif @justaqueernerd]

@those_this @WhatTheTrans And funnily enough it can take a lifetime to uncover one’s authentic self after the layered conditioning of decades of hatred, trauma and societal demands (voice of experience)

[Hlif @justaqueernerd]

@JohnOSullivan36 Never take it ad hominem, bro. Your argument is solid and I fully understand the anger, but don’t let that make you a dick about it. High ground, my man.

[Hlif @justaqueernerd]

@peaches_e78 @_Schrami_ @JohnOSullivan36 @DeVos1990 He absolutely did not imply that. What he *stated clearly* is that *boomers* are implying they had it tougher, which we all agree is bunkum. He’s here to hear that. He knows his own experience. No need to roast him because you misread his statements

[Hlif @justaqueernerd]

@_Schrami_ @JohnOSullivan36 @DeVos1990 @peaches_e78 Nah I remember the 80s here in Australia, he’s pretty much bang on. The exact figures may be different but the proportions are neatly parallel. And he’s not saying nobody has it tough, he’s saying it’s gotten way tougher. That’s not the same thing.

[Hlif @justaqueernerd]

@MFWitches Honestly? I think it’s because it’s so normal. Hard to get up that kinda motivation about things that are normal 😓

[Hlif @justaqueernerd]

@EdKrassen You kidding? I wouldn’t travel to Florida with my same-sex partner or my trans kids in a pink fit. Literally not even if you paid me. I do not consider it a safe destination, and I’m glad NAACP are taking due consideration of the issues.

[Hlif @justaqueernerd]

@Jeffa0 @tresantes @BenFordhamLive Funnily enough, the housing and food security that an increased stipend would secure goes a long way toward improving mental health, so yes, and he’s right to advocate for that on a population level. You taking the piss, or just full ignorant of how mental health works?

[Hlif @justaqueernerd]

@Jeffa0 @tresantes @BenFordhamLive Yes, we’re talking about one guy who’s been on a sub-poverty stipend for…years? He’s not going to to have the RESOURCES to do what I do, and you’re speaking in ignorance of both my job and his current situation. He is doing something. He’s serving his community as a volunteer.

[Hlif @justaqueernerd]

@Jeffa0 @tresantes @BenFordhamLive Great, Jeff. For Uber eats you “just” need to have a reliable vehicle, reliable late model phone, be ability to maintain focus for long periods, and no health issues physical or mental that get triggered by driving, high stress, abusive behaviour or dodgy sleep schedules. Next?
