Friendly reminder that, during this pride month, asexuals are not, in fact, on thin ice

And are homies

HAPPY PRIDE EVERYONE

Every time you see a luxury SUV, remember you're likely helping pay for that. Same goes for elite country club golf courses and extravagant houses

A note I'd like to make:

I live in a place with a not-small far right presence. I've seen them put up "I won't vote for Genocide Joe" stickers.

While, of course, it's not unfair to point out that the Biden Whitehouse is enabling genocide, the far more interesting note here is this:

The far right, it seems, sees it as a worthwhile cause to fake support for the anti-genocide cause, given the stakes of the election. Food for thought.

FINALLY, some action is being taken
It only took decades

PLEASE join in and sign this. Banks have been overreaching for decades and it needs to stop. Sex work is going to happen either way, it should at least be safer and easier to transact.
Porn and other adult projects also need to be protected from censorial puritanical bullshit that banks and payment processors should have NO right to do.

So Chomsky might have died?

Information unclear atm

I think this rhetoric is common because it genuinely is powerful, and while it may not always be applicable in a straightforward way, there is some truth to the idea that the way nature does things is often more efficient, or has some less-than-obvious motivation.

The issue, to me, is that conservatives are on the wrong side of this argument. Same sex intercourse is incredibly common throughout the animal kingdom. Animals are occasionally observed engaging in clearly gendered behavior that *does not* match their sex. Phenotypical differences between human racial groups are statistically less significant than between individuals within the same race, on average.

Why should we let them have this argument? If it is a dog whistle, it's a shitty one, because it actually exposes a weak point in their logic.

Forwarding because it's a good comment
