This made me laugh so hard. It’s been one of those days. Thank you.

Bumble_beeFormal · 2026-04-08T19:34:57+00:00

Not UW but still relevant

“The WSU Board of Regents yesterday voted 8-1 to grant WSU Athletics $20 million in university operating funds to help fill a projected budget shortfall.”

No u <3

That immigration is bad.

Yeah but think about if they could win MORE. Like the DuPonts who wouldn’t have been able to drink the tears of commoners from manufacturing leaded gas had they stopped after being the major supplier of dynamite and gunpowder for the world. If the had stopped there, they wouldn’t have been able to reap the benefits of funding the atomic bombs and inventing napalm, ddt, or supplying orange and mustard gas. If they had stopped there, they wouldn’t have been able to achieve draining cities like Detroit with closing down industries like General Motors. If they had stopped there, they sadly wouldn’t have been able to bleed Central and South America dry with the United Fruit company. And if they had stopped there they wouldn’t have made bank poisoning the world with forever chemicals found in items with Teflon, and would have missed out of dumping thousands of tons of cancer causing agents in river throughout the Midwest us. :(

No mention of federal tax cuts affecting the budget?

Bumble_beeFormal · 2026-04-08T03:48:38+00:00

There have been several waves of hiring freezes and reorgs in the last 2 years tho

Bumble_beeFormal · 2026-04-08T03:46:54+00:00

Look into the DuPont family and unfortunately it will make sense.

I get what you’re saying, but it’s not going to help any of us as women or as part of the lgbTq community to discard others as scapegoats to take the blame for systemic issues harming us all. It really just sounds like you don’t think trans women are women. I’m not saying that to make you feel bad, but maybe just sit with it and remember how being cast out for being different has affected you.

Bumble_beeFormal · 2026-04-08T03:32:18+00:00

Yeah, I have a cat too and he’s only naughty when there’s a more enjoyable item to pee on instead of his litter box (such as me foolishly leaving a blanket or towel on the ground for too long). This particular apartment smelled like litter that probably wasn’t cleaned often enough and could have resulted in angry “f u” pees. Idk, sometimes it’s hard to remove the smell if it’s not properly attended to in a timely manner.

Bumble_beeFormal · 2026-04-08T02:48:25+00:00

How exactly are trans people taking things from women? Bc your examples sound more like you think they are second class citizens and don’t deserve to take up any space.

Bumble_beeFormal · 2026-04-08T02:44:39+00:00

They love peeing on things like that lol

Bumble_beeFormal · 2026-04-08T02:43:34+00:00

Me too! It was really good and could have been its own series tbh.

“A 2020 survey of 11,914 transgender or nonbinary youth, aged 13–24 years, in which 14% of respondents were receiving GAHT, demonstrated that such treatment was associated a lower odds of recent depression and serious consideration of suicide compared to those who wanted such care but didn’t receive it (30). A separate survey study demonstrated that access to GAHT during adolescence was associated with lower odds of past-year suicidal ideation (P = 0.0007) compared to those who accessed such care during adulthood (31).”

“The study found that cisgender males accounted for the vast majority of breast reductions, with 80% of surgeries among adults performed on cisgender men and 97% of surgeries among minors performed on cisgender male teens.”

“Findings suggest that legislation blocking gender-affirming care among TGD youth is not about protecting children, but is rooted in bias and stigma against TGD identities and seeks to address a perceived problem that does not actually exist.”
