What is the appendage to the right of the baby’s head (in the still photo)? It’s too large to be a finger, too awkward to be an arm. It’s honestly throwing me off completely. Anybody know?
(Also, why is a neo-natal nurse able to have those talons?)

Can i be not a fan of suggesting she can get another partner without his consent? That shit happened to me after 4 years and my polyamorous friends were like “that’s not cool. People who cheat with the excuse of being polyamorous just give us a bad name.” If you’re dead set on that and it’s been discussed just end the…

Yeah, that was kinda gratuitous.

There is not enough education as well about passing things down. People needs to get explicit trusts/wills etc so the wealth passes down if you are one of the few who have managed to attain a home and keep it. First thing folks want to do as soon as big mama dies is sell the house bc all they can think of is money or…

I have a weird fear of corn

Exactly! I didn’t realize we were ok with the police facilitating suicide by cop these days, when the person is holding a multi tool and is clearly in distress.

So you fixed the gender issue without, might I add, noting the change. But you still think people shouldn’t be upset that the cops shot them, just because they were suicidal? So now where ok, with cops shooting the mentally ill?

Reading about it doesn’t even come close to actually watching it. It’s a super effective piece of film making, but your reward is two hours of straight anxiety and this knot of dread and hatred that slowly grows inside of you until it unspools and you realize that things are hopeless, we’re all fucked, and we deserve…

There’s definitely that aspect of it, and I have no doubt that white folks are more engaged because a white person was killed. But it continuously misgenders them, specifically mentions that white folks are riled because of Michael’s mistaken assumption about their identity, and minimizes the tragedy of their killing.…

I keep re-reading that part of Michael’s article and it doesn’t read the same way to me. It struck me as “now that a white person was killed, folks in the area are finally noticing that cops are inadequately trained for their job.”

I might be able to say misgendering them to be a mistake. I’ve made dumb Kinja mistakes before. But including them in this article in the first place and making fun of them was no mistake...

Yeah, of all the things to knock white peoople for. Being mad a trans kid was murdered by police while holding a multi-tool seems like a strange hill to chose.

I mean, he’s making fun of someone who died at the hands of the police. It comes off as pretty cold already, and when you add in the fact that he couldn’t bother to do the basic amount of work necessary to find out what their gender was, that’s what puts it over the top for me. And, not to put too fine a point on it,…

Is it a bit of a stretch for me to say that the inclusion of Scout’s incidence in this installment of ““White Tears Bingo.” (*Patent pending, trademark applied for.)“

In 99% of rapes, the person doesn’t think they are doing something that society is okay with. 

Which doesn’t contradict OP. Those people are going to continue to rape. Educating them just gives them more circumstances to justify why what they did wasn’t rape even though it fits the definition.

It originally seemed to me that it would be a lot easier to teach men (preferably when they’re children) basic human empathy and consent practices instead of requiring women to constantly be on guard and use defensive products like these, but then I typed that thought out, remembered how the world is, and made myself…
