I Mean, Why Not?

Small sea creatures want to kill you.  Respect their space, please.

They need to be better known!  And if they’re predators, can we train them to hunt creationists?  (I don’t mean for them to HURT anybody.  Just track them down, and skim in front of them holding up signs that say “I got your transitional form RIGHT HERE BUDDY”)

THDI IS FUCKING KILLING MEEEE

Seriously. Why do we idolize people who suck the money up from the poor?

YES THAT WORD RIGHT THERE

Seriously. I'm a manager. I have to deal with people. For, like, just HALF of that conversation, it would be "...we'll mail your last check to you. Don't come by the store again."

New trainee!

Yeah, it’s honestly crazy.  I know maybe one other couple of my generation that’s been married anywhere near as long as we have.

“what if people transition and then regret it?” ok. let’s do that with everything. no more straight marriages until the heterosexual divorce rate is below the detransition rates

Yeah, this is me. Current events? DAMNIT BLUE RINGS TIME

Reading about current events ;3

Yeah, it was always obvious where they were going.  This is why unity matters in opposing bigotry; the leopards will always eat your face, too.

There's a reason the state starts by going after the people you refuse to respect

Hear hear!

Could you maybe reblog this post if you think respecting trans peoples' names and identities is a basic right and not a political opinion?

No pressure. Just seeking some validation of my sentiment. Due to some. people

Good lord. I've seen this elsewhere, and it has to be stopped.

I have to say it does make me really depressed and even more worried for the future that any human being is actually capable of thinking we should eliminate all forms of violence from all wild animal species. The first time I saw someone saying this I thought they were satirizing PETA or something, inventing an extreme conclusion to animal rights as a joke. Now I know it's a real philosophical movement increasingly popular with a bunch of rich tech people who go around giving speeches at universities about how we should just flood the natural world with GMO's to try and "herbivorize predators," wipe out all parasites, cure all disease, eliminate aging and remove just all forms of pain or even competition from all ecosystems. "But that will just DESTROY those ecosystems" you say. Yeah they know and they want that too. They call nature things like "The Darwinian House of Horrors" and dream of a future where the entire planet is a tightly controlled, deathless biotech zoo. "But we shouldn't worry because that's impossible anyway" yes, yes it is, but it's entirely possible to release genetically altered organisms into the wild and these people already talk about "starting small" with CRISPR experimentation. There's already corporations testing GM mosquitoes that can't bite anymore. As soon as any of these fuckoffs get access to enough money and backing they're going to attempt that with an eagle or a shark or a big cat, and they're probably going to find out the hard way that their idea won't work the way they want it to but in the meantime they'll quite possibly cause an extinction or two, and then they're going to just keep trying it again. This is in their little ted talks and thinkpieces. They think everything's already doomed anyway and that if they accidentally wipe out a species it just won't matter because extinctions are natural and at least that species is no longer suffering. They call their movement things like "compassionate biology" and "effective altruism," in case you're wondering what to look out for. They've got all sorts of web communities for it, like this one. but before you go thinking they're just animal rights fanatics, DON'T WORRY! They do in fact include humans in their plans! They think gene editing should also be put towards the eradication of all disability, neurodivergence, or maybe even "capacity for cruelty" in humans! They sit around wanking all day about their eugenicist dream zombie utopia :) :) :) did I mention lots of them are actually rich with actual corporate and academic connections lololol
