Hey Readers

Trans people were always part of the conversation on abortion. Saying “people who can get pregnant” isn’t political correctness gone awry. It’s just being more accurate.

The fact that thousands of Jewish families across the United States are being forced to decide whether to send their children to their first day of school or observe their religious practices is just more proof that antisemitism is culturally Ingrained and that westerners never cared about diversity or considering religious and ethnic minorities. Having one of the most important school days on one of the most important Jewish holidays (Rosh Hashanah) is so tone deaf, especially with the increasing amount of antisemitism and violence against America’s Jewish community this year.

I’m sorry, so you can bargain with thunder, the moon, and death, but not the night, of all things.

Well yeah. Night happens every night, whether you want it to or not. It's regularity was seen more as a fundamental element of the universe rather than a phenomenon that could be influenced.

And Nyx wasn't just the goddess of night. She was the goddess of everything hidden, unknown, and taboo. Oftentimes when cult practices for existing gods formed they were referred to as "Baccus Nox" or "Venus Nox" as in "The esoteric or taboo form of this god."

Nyx was almost a representation of everything humans did not or could not understand about the world. Its hard to make a deal with the personification of incomprehensibility.

I think she would like a galaxy cake

idk if anyone needs to hear this today, but: if you are a trans dude, the fact that you are a man is a good thing and your existence as a trans man makes the world a better place. it is not a bad thing that you are a man and it’s especially not bad that you are a trans man. the fact that you exist as a man is a great thing and you are amazing. sleep well tonight

HELL ya. housekeeping is how the hospital stays clean enough to heal people. it’s endless, thankless, backbreaking, and disgusting. they deserve more pay, more benefits, and more appreciation.

In the N95, paper mask on top, full face shield, gown, gloves, shoe covers, in the COVID wards right along with medical staff. Watched them do it for ten months. Absolutely indispensable people.

The shoulder

the articulation of hubris

God really went nuts, just said “go wild, you funky little monkeys!” and gave us a spheroid joint that can move in all directions and do  e v e r y t h i n g !~, except stay in its fucking place when hit by a light breeze

A fucking mess:

“Looks complicated, how does it work?” It doesn’t

big fan of God, but this was a rookie mistake

God: hmm…I’m not sure about this one human joint, can you review it?

Pre-callout Satan: looks great fam 👌

Wow, I’ve just had my first articular injury and you guys will never guess in which joint it was!!

It’s been done before but you know how it is

For your listening pleasure

I dreamt that I found a therapist but her therapy consisted of sending me on a bunch of weird chivalric side quests to prove myself, which I sort of think is the opposite of therapy?

Meh, if it builds confidence it builds confidence. Can’t argue with success
