  • Had a sitting US congresswoman on my stream to discuss Donkey Kong strategy recently. Here's the clip!
    I want to thank everyone who worked behind the scenes to make this stream happen, Pio, Dogstrong, Shaun, Foldable Human, Shannon Strucci, Rhods, Casey, everyone I didn't even know about, and in particular Chelsea Manning for everything that led up to this - this wouldn't have happened without all of your work and I love you for it

      I really don't care who uses which bathroom, personally. It's not like you're arrested for going into the girl's bathroom in the first place.
      But for others, it is a concern that the new transgenderism movement has yet to address in full. There are a lot of social and cultural aspects to a civilized society that cannot be solved by vaguely saying "just be more accepting".
      These are real factors that should be debated when making policy for trans rights, if they even need the policy-making.

      @Glühfunke it's interesting that you took "stop making issues" as "mind your own business." That's not what I was saying at all. Either way, cis people need to fix their own shit. It's not my, or any trans person's, job to convince cis people to "be more accepting" (which isn't what I was saying either, but whatever).

      ​@@manuelsputnik I feel like you're missing the point, full woosh. There's bigger concerns than what bathroom a person uses and I know if I can I'd just as soon always wait til I'm home. The inflation of the issue means fighting for the small things like bathrooms starts to get in the way of even starting to talk about bigger things like trans servicemembers openly serving and transitioning just by way of Continuing to Address something that's actually really simple, especially if it keeps getting dragged up because the republican party keeps attempting to infringe on trans rights (as well as damn near everybody but white rich cishet males) so things we'd already gone over get rolled back and we all waste time putting things as they were again.

      I mean the bathroom debt is valid I personally am perfectly fine with trans people but wouldn’t feel great if a women who was previously a guy used the same bathroom as me. You never know people around you are like and it is quite possible for this person to be as much of a creep as a regular creep except she has access to something she didn’t have before because she would be considered male.

    • @grimsage5809
      @grimsage5809 Před 5 lety +59

      @@birdsocks9083 That's pretty transphobic, actually, very yerdad "I don't mind gay people as long as they aren't being gay near me".. honestly there's as much room for a cis woman to "be a creep" as any transwoman and stigmatizing someone based solely on their having transitioned/transitioning.. well, yeah. Maybe ask yourself why you feel that way if you're "perfectly fine with trans people"?
      Public bathrooms in general are on the nasty side tbh (worst case scenario I've come across, a portajohn at a campsite, my grandma discovered a camera in the toilet :T) and I think all of us can recognize the peace and tranquility of just doing your business in your own, but we can't always and it'd be more harmful to force a female presenting trans woman to use a men's bathroom than to simply coexist in women's spaces. TLDR Trans Women Are Women, and making trans persons use their birth sex to determine the bathroom they use is not only transphobic but puts them in the direct line of harm to not only out themselves but also to very potentially trigger dysphoria (I mean, think about what you'd feel like if you were forced to use the men's room, even though you know you're a woman).

    I've seen several news articles on this in big papers (or rather the online version, idk if it was print published)
    The guardian ran an article that popped up in my feed exactly about Alexiandria poping in to say hi.
    You have managed to have such a widespread publicity hype from this, and as a UK trans person who always feels like I'm misrepresented, belittled or ignored in the media this is incredibly important.
    Not only that, but the article ended with a quote from you. "Don't just speak to me. Go out there, find trans people, talk to them". The fact they included that as their final note was just perfect.

      It makes the cold waves and the heat waves more extreme which also creates more insane tornadoes and tsunamis, which have gotten pretty crazy over the last few years. *As you can imagine, Global Temperature Inbalance is a fucking mouthful and Global Temperature Extremism sounds like some sort of terrorist plot so people tend to just say **_Global Warming._* As you know, that's fucking inaccurate too.

All I had ever seen was a bunch of spin doctor platitudes, gutless compromises, and cringey attempts to appear "relevant".
      The typical machine candidates are so out of touch, so estranged from the common people as part of this political elite, that they are incapable of actually relating to the public on the most basic, organic level, and their behavior is this rehearsed artificial performance, a choreography created by some P.R./advertising firm.
      Comparing her behavior and candour with that of our traditional political elite, this wretched aristocracy that so obviously has nothing but contempt for us, you realize that they really are (figuratively) fucking lizards.
      I remember seeing that one clip where Alex Jones is harassing Bernie at the airport where from as I could tell, he was just travelling like an ordinary citizen, no private jet, no Secret Service detail, no shutting down the entire airport, and grounding the rest of us peons while His Majesty takes wing, no paramilitary style operation involved in shuttling some worthless old white asshole about who doesn't even know what century he's living in, yet wields the powers of a veritable prince. The negative phenomenon of not witnessing the usual bullshit in this regard was in itself a great thing to behold.
      All Bernie had was his bag, a boarding pass, and one out-of-shape looking body guard.

      The establishment dems and replaced republicans are just as bad if not worse than trump. The reason why it was so hectic is because the establishment pulled out all the tricks in their hat to get rid of trump. Seriously look at Biden’s coverage in the first year vs trump not even close, and the approval ratings are similar. The fact is we haven’t had a strong president in a long time, and he was murdered.

    I'm a trans 14 year old girl who just wants to say how great this was, and to wholeheartedly agree with Ocasio-Cortez about the healthcare issue. This has been a really rough week for me, I started trying for hormones in October 2017, the week of national coming out day. That December we made an appointment with an endocrinologist to discuss lupron (puberty blockers). I should note that lupron and other anti-androgyns exist as a pause button so families can discuss estrogen. That makes it all the worse that it took 8 months for my parents to consent for it. But that bit is out of the governments control, here's where things get really fucked. I got my prescription in June 2018. For roughly three months, the insurance company (and yes I know I'm lucky enough to even have healthcare in America) said no, each time saying we were missing one more random thing, at one point my therapist needed to write a note saying it was necessary, and they still said no and we had to appeal again and again. I should note, for some expensive medicines, insurance companies need to sign off on prescriptions as well as doctors, to determine those things as "medically necessary". The blatant transphobia of calling hormones not necessary aside, they eventually had to cave because at a certain point it was a literal crime. Upon them sending us a letter saying they had confirmed the prescription, I figured the medicine was shipping, until three more months had passed and we had to go through a web of beaurocratic nonsense, calling number after number because the one they first gave us was totally useless, until 8 calls later we found out that they were waiting for our confirmation to ship, but forgot to ask us for our confirmation. So here we are. This week, I had an appointment to get my first shot of lupron, but they had to do one quick exam before, and when they did, they found that my puberty was so far along that trying to stop it was pointless. So I didn't get that shot. So essentially, the insurance company made me wait so long for medicine that I lost the window to even use that medicine. It got me really down, but seeing that there is at least someone in charge of our government that isn't and orange neonazi made things a little better. She really is giving us hope, it's so great to see the people at the top saying trans rights are human rights, This was kind of an unhinged rant cause I'm still recovering, but the basic point is, this video is good and I love Ocasio-Cortez

    Dan & Casey (in particular that I know of) were absolute troopers organizing and keeping pretty much everything going on stream and especially behind the scenes. I was there from start to finish and it was simply a phenomenal feat. I still cannot believe how well it all came together. So many beautiful souls joined together to talk about important issues, do good and raise a huge amount of money for a great, great cause. I love each and everyone of you who were a part of it.

    This stream, the money raised for Mermaids, the guest appearances, was one of the most amazing things I have ever seen in the gaming community. Proof that the community isn't entirely filled with hateful fascist wankers.

Not very safe in an enviroment with loaded weapons around. Maybe you would not do anything wrong, but an organisation with such responsibility like the military can't accept people with mental illnesses.
