There is a Pope in the Cars universe. This means that there is Catholic Christianity, which means there was a Jesus car who was crucified. Jesus Chrysler was crucified by car Romans under Pontiac Pilot who washed his wheels. A car was nailed to a cross and ascended to Heaven.
Every time I see this “Jesus Chrysler” sends me into a blind rage so my eyes skip over “Pontiac Pilot” until the second take and I feel like a semi just backed up over my lifeless corpse

Let transmasculine people exist and access whatever aspect of transition they’d like, without telling them they have dirty man cooties and are magically not oppressed anymore because something something male privilege.
The way people treat trans guys under some pathetic “but men suck” defense is horrific tbqh. I’ve lost count of how many trans guys I know who either haven’t come out publicly or delayed coming out for years because they HATED themselves so much for wanting to be gross icky men. Most of them have been or are still actively suicidal. Every single one of them struggles to unpack and overcome the feeling that they’re “betraying” people by coming out as men.
It has also bled over to affect nonbinary people who present masculine at all, because y’all think they’re “too masculine” to be nonbinary, and treat them to exactly the same garbage.
Masculinity is not inherently toxic, men occupy numerous spheres of oppression that deserve compassion and support, and I’m tired of watching trans men and nonbinary people suffer because y’all can’t wrap your heads around the idea that not all men have the same level of privilege.

I know your first impulse is to despair. To say we’re fucked. To feel desperate and hopeless. I feel it. We all feel it.
But Notorious RBG would not have wanted us to lie down and accept defeat.
She’d have wanted us to fight like hell. And that’s what we’re going to do.
Call your house rep: Find them by Zipcode

I am calling to ask Congressperson ______ to go on the record saying they will respect Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg’s dying wishes as well as the precedent set in 2016 to not nominate a new Justice until after a new president is installed. Thanks for your time.”
Call your senator: (202) 224-3121 Capitol Switchboard

The ole run around

You’re able to call your parents “Mom” and “Dad”. They were not born with those names.
You’re able to call your teachers “Mr” or “Mrs” and their last name. You’d get in trouble if you addressed them by first name.
You’re able to call a celebrity by their chosen stage name.
You’re able to call your friends a shortened version of their name, their middle name instead of their first, or a completely random nickname.
You’re able to call a married woman by her husband’s last name, even though she was not born with that last name.
But when someone’s transgender, how does calling them by a name they were not born with somehow become a hassle?
