“why can’t lesbians have one thing” no one is saying you cannot be butch. if a bisexual woman or a gay man being butch ruins it for you, because their “proximity to maleness” “taints” it, then that is your problem. not theirs. and that is your issue to deal with on your own. not an issue to take out on them. nothing has been taken from you. no one is stopping you from being butch. you are free to have this “one thing”. congrats. you’ve got it.

Capitalism is fucking evil.
Capitalism mandates that the resources of the many should stay in an increasingly shrinking hands of the few. It places a priority on every business within it that their focus MUST forever be to maximize profits. You sell weapons? Cool, you better figure out what you gotta do to make weapons sales happen. You sell plastic? Cool, you gotta make sure that single use plastic becomes the norm.
Capitalism contains no provisions for an assessment of if that profit extraction comes at the cost of lives, environment, etc. Corporations rarely seek to limit their direct harm and then, through “philanthropy” programs, seek to slap bandaids on the true damage they cause in a way that does nothing except create “aren’t we SO GENEROUS” self-celebratory jerk off fests. Every corporation that sets up “”“”“CSR”“”“ programs within it will show you the minute the profits of the business look in anyway not favorable, their social responsibilities are the first on the chopping block, defunded. The corporate structures only protect the well-being and wealth of those at the very very very top of them.
Capitalism isn’t incidentally evil. Capitalism isn’t accidentally bad. Capitalism has intended harm for the wider experience of humanity baked in it.
Anyone who tries to tell you capitalism is good for you is either a billionaire or a fool. Which are you?
And either pointed ears like Hylians or dog ears like InuYasha… And fangs…

Mana-sama (the one modeling these shots) is indeed a cis man for those unfamiliar. That is exactly how he would look with he/him in his bio.
why do people never include recent photos. hes in his fifties now and still serves (these r all from the mdm twitter)
I think it’s worth mentioning from an autistic perspective that Mana is almost entirely non-verbal in every public appearance he’s ever made and people around him tend to respect that and work with him to communicate. Whether it’s a quirk he chooses or a facet of neurodiversity is unclear but it’s been an ongoing trait of his since the 90s.

I slept in and just woke up, so here’s what I’ve been able to figure out while sipping coffee:
- Twitter has officially rebranded to X just a day or two after the move was announced.
- The official branding is that a tweet is now called “an X”, for which there are too many jokes to make.
- The official account is still @twitter because someone else owns @X and they didn’t reclaim the username first.
- The logo is 𝕏 which is the Unicode character Unicode U+1D54F so the logo cannot be copyrighted and it is highly likely that it cannot be protected as a trademark.
- Outside the visual logo, the trademark for the use of the name “X” in social media is held by Meta/Facebook, while the trademark for “X” in finance/commerce is owned by Microsoft.
- The rebranding has been stopped in Japan as the term “X Japan” is trademarked by the band X JAPAN.
- Elon had workers taking down the “Twitter” name from the side of the building. He did not have any permits to do this. The building owner called the cops who stopped the crew midway through so the sign just says “er”.
- He still plans to call his streaming and media hosting branch of the company as “Xvideo”. Nobody tell him.
This man wants you to give him control over all of your financial information.
not that i didn’t want to believe you op, but i had to check that er thing out for myself, bc that just seemed too cartoonishly stupid to be real
but holy shit
