Halloween is coming up, and at the rate we go through these threads probably Thanksgiving and any other November holidays I’m forgetting about.
Here’s some Seasonal Raccoon Dogs while we talk about Twitter, Shit we Find on Twitter, the current events that are being talked about on twitter, and God’s Bestest Animal, the Tanuki:

Now, no one mess up the nice clean thread.
Does that mean we're all splurnzing? What was their word for posting, boofing?
Bloodwork came in from her vet appointment yesterday, the doc is pleased with how she is "aging with grace".
Sometimes I'll put pineapple on a hotdog sandwich while watching my favorite Christmas movie, Live Free or Die Hard
Okay, Jake Peralta.

I mean, depending on the orientation...
e: Pineapple on a hotdog, sure.
Hotdog in a pineapple?
Local grocer grinds their own natural casing sausages and one of them is a pork brat with Kona Big Wave ale and pineapple. They're fantastic.

Took me way too long here to realise your cat's name isn't Midbath.
Birds of a feather skeet together, or so I am told.
Good pho is really good, but there is a big gap between your average pho and good pho.
Banh mi does in fact fuck hard though.
the absolute worst shit is when people try to make their own cutesy words for their internet social media subculture
dogg i'm just trying to post where my friends post if you try to get me to say some sort of cute word other than post i'm gonna throw you in a hole
to some degree it's like when people say Xitter. what the fuck are you talking. it's twitter. shut up. we all know what it is.
Doc: That's right, twenty five years into the future. I've always dreamed on seeing the future, looking beyond my years, seeing the progress of mankind. I'll also be able to see who wins the next twenty-five world series.
That's the proper pronunciation. It's also popular because Musk hates it.
It was not obvious to me at the time that when Allred said "boys" he actually meant "trans girls," because trans girls are not boys. That was the root of this whole thing. I assumed the statement was a non-position meant to read as bigotry to bigots and allyship to everyone else, precisely because it can be read both ways (and politicians gonna politician).

That’s…
That’s literally how dog whistles work.
Like why they’re literally called “dog whistles.”
That’s why you had shit in the mid entire with Lee Atwater, racist Conservative fuck extradordinaire, explaining it as:
They don’t say “trans girls” because:
1) they don’t want voters like you to realize they’re up for sacrificing trans folks to right wing culture warriors
2) most of these fucks refuse to believe trans people are our identified gender. They believe, despite our insistence to the contrary, we are our assigned at birth gender.” They think trans women are women in the same way a cisgender male cross dresser is a drag “Queen”
That’s why I and others were fucking pissed at y’all: you’ll repeatedly tie yourselves into the fucking Gordian knot to believe the fucking cover story instead of seeing the truth behind it. In this comparison, yall are the folk thinking Atwater really cares about States Rights when what he wants to do is hurt black people
Then you get huffy and indignant when the people being targetted by this shit are telling you your own team is joining the firing squad, and half of you assholes excuse it because you think it’ll get you a new shiny blue seat, which seems to be the only thing yall care about, not what the fucks will use that blue seat for or whose safety you traded away to get it.
No, caring about not being your sacrificial lambs is “purity testing”
AKA a transphobic dog-whistle.
Ever tried. Ever failed. No matter. Try again. Fail again. Fail better

I feel like the open racism against blacks, asians, native americans doesn't really get a lot of discussion in this election cycle because of the latino-coded immigration racism (and Haitians now, but black immigrants vs black natural citizens has always been a divide)
But it's just full mask-off now

1. The damn thread ended, you had the perfect opportunity to stop digging, you didn't have to go back for seconds
2. When marginalized folks tell you that something was bigoted toward them, perhaps grant them the benefit of the doubt that they understand their own oppression more than you do

I'm still not a great ally, I wager, but I do my best to educate myself and listen to and respect and support minorities
A lot of my education and growth came from this getting outside of my little cis white male middle class rural wasp bubble, and meeting new people, but a lot of came from listening to minorities on this very message board
I'm just trying to say listen to and respect minorities, and stop trying to defend yourself and your views, not to just calica and heffling in particular, but it might come across that way
