And if he does, so what? There’s nothing I can do about that so why should I worry?

Something something broken clock

No-one said he doesn’t let the homies hit his ass, he’s just saying if he had a pussy they could hit that too

Remember kids, your granny has to freeze to death this winter but we can give millions to fascists

But it is in a sense all of those things - you are born with a set of genitals that define your sex, as a result your gender identity is also defined at birth based on the social roles that the society you exist in prescribes. There’s arguably a conversation to be had about the entire concept of gender abolition but that’s a hypothetical that we aren’t anywhere near, for the here and now we have genders and people define what that means for themselves

Not really? That depends on the culture one is growing up in. There’s nothing inherently male or female about any clothes, they are defined as male or female based on the society and its gender ideals. At no point did I define things as strictly male or female, and happily enough the lines on what are considered gendered are blurring, the point remains that gender is socially constructed whereas sex isn’t. You aren’t male because you don’t identify as male, someone who was assigned female at birth however could decide that they want to live their lives as a male and identify that way

I typed most of it up and then thought “I should’ve just gone with the tl;dr” but decided I was already committed 😅

Whatever = gender. Like, what else would it be? You are born with a sex - typically male or female - and then society in general decides what that means for you, girls wear dresses and boys don’t, for example. That is essentially gender, the roles we play given the sex we have, but roles aren’t ingrained - a girl isn’t biologically predisposed to wear a dress, she may be biologically predisposed in general to lean towards a female gender identity that includes dresses, and she also might not, and then might also not be predisposed to lean towards that female gender identity at all and instead be transgender.

A quick and dirty tl;dr would be that sex is between your legs and gender is between your ears.

(Disclaimer: I am also a dumbass who isn’t great at putting words down, doesn’t know as much as they think they do, and also hasn’t entirely woken up yet, somebody much more capable in one or more of these areas will likely explain it much better)

The future is Dumb and I Hate It

Is there to be no browser where I can be free of AI?

“It is with great pleasure to inform you” will never not annoy me. It should be “It is with great pleasure that I inform you” or “It is my great pleasure to inform you”

Unfortunately there are way too many people who not only refuse to accept that but who will also actively resist any attempts to control this or any future pandemic

It is mate, yeah

I think it’s an individual thing, and probably also dependent on said individuals state of mind. I dropped off TikTok ages ago because of its tendency to get me lost, with reddit I didn’t entirely know how bad it was until the blackout happened and I noticed how often I would just compulsively reach for my phone to open reddit when I wasn’t doing anything else

Fair, though to my mind that’s all social media, so I can’t get worked up about one particular one. The reason I’m glad I was pushed off reddit is because I’d end up in a doomscroll trance there too

Definitely, it’s not hard to just see shit you want to see on there if you’re using it, if someone is seeing enraging stuff I have to assume it’s their fault

It’s almost like we have different experiences of things ¯\(ツ)/¯

I get it to an extent for privacy reasons, but most of the people making that type of comment are just going “oh no, that’s what the kids are into so it’s Bad”. Personally I’m too apathetic about the privacy aspect to care too, bug companies are spying on us all and manipulating us all the time anyway and I just can’t be bothered to get worked up about one particular one
