I don’t vet blogs before I reblog things from them. I don’t look at urls or dnis or caards unless I am actually planning on interacting with a blog beyond a reblog or like. I am here to add 20 posts in a row to my queue, then disappear to my adult life with my adult problems.
as far as I’m concerned, I’m the only person on this hellsite, and the rest of you are faceless, nameless, jesters dancing for my amusement, the same way I am a jester dancing for your amusement with no face or name
unfortunately I’m watching supernatural and someone on screen said ‘there are No Wolves in pennsylvania’ and I was like. what a bold incorrect statement. where did they possibly get that idea from. so I googled it…google is insisting there are no wild wolves in pa?? except I’ve Seen wolves here?? there used to be a wolf that would hang out in my backyard and roam around the neighborhood?? like Everyone knew about this wolf we assumed he lived on the golf course and would come to our yards if he got spooked by golfers (very quiet block). like we all thought he just lost his pack or whatever so people just gave him a wide space and let him chill, he didn’t try to break into any houses or attack any pets but this was definitely. a wild wolf. where. where did he come from what do you MEAN there aren’t wolves in pennsylvania I’m literally spiraling right now
still feeling so gut-punched over this
To be fair, PA also said “we did not reintroduce mountain lions, they are not there, you’re seeing really big house cats, please keep coming to the parks and camp sites and ignore that video, that was totally not a mountain lion, someone took last week”
okay I’m sorry but this came up on pinterest and I Screamed
you are the state of Pennsylvania (allegedly)
i just showed this to a friend from pennsylvania and 1. theyre losing their mind bc theyve seen mountain lions which prompted them to look it up which leads me to 2. this fucking bonkers article
[caption: “We’ve been here 45 years and I’ve probably been told by people at least 100 t imes that they’ve seen a cougar or mountain lion,” said owner Vince Hall. “I kind of doubt they saw a cougar, but I’m not God.”]
PA: I can’t believe we’ve lost all our native apex predators Citizens of PA: there’s a mountain lion right there PA: sometimes we can still hear the sound of them scaring away tourists
…PA has fucking EMUS and you want me to believe we have no wolves or mountain lions?
As a regretful born and raised Pennsylvanian, we have wolves, coywolves, mountain lions, lynx, and coyotes. Not a single person in authority will admit to there being anything but coyotes and lynx. If you see a cougar, they will tell you you saw a lynx. If you see a wolf, they will tell you you saw a coyote. Ignore the massive differences in sizes. No one knows what a coywolf is but we have them. I have seen a cougar with my own two goddamned eyes. There is an entire nature park whose main attractions are the cougars and wolves (and bison but we’re not talking about them) - it’s called Penn’s Cave, it’s been there forever. Everyone I know has seen a cougar or wolf at least once in the woods.
So what I’m getting at is don’t trust the government.
“the state of Pennsylvania is gaslighting its citizens about the native wildlife”
My spouse was born in PA (Bethlehem, Mt Sinai) and he is enjoying this entire thread, which we might show his cousins who live in Philly and have seen the These Aren’t Cougars.
Woman: *explains how the female reproductive system is structured*
Fragile man: “Transphobe!!! You’re lucky I’m not reporting you!!!! Apologise!!!!”
What?? He responded to her, and now he’s like “apologise or I have no desire to speak to you”? Ok, bye.
But the heavily implied corollary is that he is going to mass flag her entire account to try to get her banned for stating a fact. Kind of weird coming from the “words are violence and censorship is bad!” crowd.
“you’re trying to hurt people”
How is this hurtful? Not only is it true, but it is very body positive for women. We aren’t just holes or incomplete males! The vagina is not the absence of a penis!
This male acting as the authority! Here’s your options! Listen to me! Choose! I’m giving you a chance before I seek revenge! Take it back or I don’t desire to speak to you! Literally no one fucking wanted to hear you speak no one cares about you you are a cash cow for the pharmaceutical industry, a cash cow for plastic surgeons. Like men really think they’re so highly valued instead of it simply being that everyone is afraid of how violent they are.
This man has never had a vagina.
A vagina is not a hole for sexual validation. It’s the birth canal. It’s lined with connective tissue, smooth muscle, rugae, vagina mucosa. It’s capable of pushing out a baby and contracting back to it’s original size. It balances it’s own PH in order to kill bacteria, it has its own micro biome of lactobacilli to keep you healthy and prevent infection, it’s self cleaning. A flap of skin forced in-between a man’s legs like a borehole is no more a vagina than punching another hole in your head would be creating a third ear.
People calling a surgical created wound that is purposefully made to never heal and call that a vagina is the offensive thing. Not the opposite
Black babies were buried in the ground and their heads kicked until it came off.They were used as alligator bait.
Black women were raped, and had dangerous surgeries and experiments preformed on them with no anesthesia because “they could not feel pain”.They were shoved into breeding farms and gave birth to children that were sold like property.
Both black men and women were tortured with devices pushed up the rectum. Half hanged. Boiled in water and sugar. Forced into labor until their bodies broke down. Beaten because the color of the cotton mattered more than their blood. Whipped in front of everybody. Made to whip each other. Bones were crushed as punishment. Had muzzles tied that suffocated them.
Punishment so damn painful they attempted suicide to escape it.
Mocked for their features. Even put in zoos.
Stereotypes that stem from slavery(black women being promiscious, black men being aggressive, black people being lazy or stupid) still persist and effect black people today. Generational trauma has taken a toll on black people’s health.
Black people weren’t even seen as people. Just female/male animals that resembled them.
Trans people face discrimination on the basis of their identity, but the treatment of enslaved black people was much, much, worse. Inhumane.
I’m sorry but being referred to as your deadname or not being let into single sex areas is not the same.
Truly what discrimination do they REALLY face? How are they oppressed? Who is their oppressor? No one ever seems to be able to point out the rights they’re denied because they’ve never been denied any rights they simply don’t have unwavering access to whatever they want.
What rights do trans people not have that everyone else does? They have the same access to jobs, housing, public spaces, voting, bank accounts, due process, you name it. Other people finding you attractive or likable isn’t a right no one has to be your friend or fuck you. Plastic surgery isn’t a right. Hormones aren’t a right. Doctors don’t have to give a patient whatever they deem is validating that’s not their job. If I said I needed a free face life, laser hair removal, lipo, a boob job, a nose job, etc, so I can look like a model my doctor wouldn’t call it “life saving female affirming health care” they’d laugh me out of their office and tell me to work on my self worth with a therapist. If anything it’s an advantage and a privilege trans people are given simply for being trans that other people are denied. Access to whatever space you feel entitled to is also not a right, I can’t walk into a space and demand access to it just because I said so. No one else is able to walk into the doctor and say yes I’d like this procedure and this drug because if you don’t give it to me I’ll kill myself I need to feel valid and walk out with whatever they want covered by insurance, typically that would be met with a psych ward stay, transness is not considered a mental illness or a disease or disability so why is it so medicalized when absolutely nothing else is. No one else is able to have laws changed because it “feels valid” other groups of people have laws changed when they’re actually being excluded and it took decades of fighting and slow progress. Trans people already have access to bathrooms and health care and sports teams and voting and housing and everything else, maybe it’s just not the spaces that validate them lol and if they’re denied entry because of their sex and try to manipulate the situation to make it be about their own little head cannon being a loophole it’s dishonest and an abuse of power to begin with, like men in women’s sports, they have everything that everyone else does it’s just not to the degree that they want. Is it a right for people to see you as you wan to be seen, to validate your feelings, nope.
It’s like people went well a black gay male sex worker was killed by a man so now all men who say they’re a she/her need to be in your lesbian bar because that’ll fix everything. It’s like none of this addresses male violence. The real issue.
Y’all love talking about supporting and listening to black women until black African women talk about genital mutilation,rape, and breast ironing and y’all call them terfs
and y'all LOVEEEE talking about supporting and listening to muslims and respecting their religious practises and traditions… until you find out that they cant take off their hijabs / change clothes / go to the same bathroom as transwomen bc islamic rules are based on sex and not the mysterious Gender TM
y'all love talking about supporting and listening to brown women until mexican feminists talk about sex trafficking, femicide, rape, forced sterilization at the border and abortion rights and you all call them terfs
