Ferris says trans* rights, y'all. #rustlang

/r/rust is currently overrun with a bunch of unkindly transphobic morons (I thought we had mods, maybe they're all busy at rustconf?)

apparently how I deal with this is I powerlift

and then when that's not enough I stay up too late and draw shit

Heya folks,

I was just curious, what makes for a good image description

The greatest grift the privileged ever ran was convincing everybody that "Anarchy" was another word for "Chaos", and not an ideology based in the dismantling of hierarchy to be replaced with a system founded in equity.

the neoliberal transformation of the education system into a worker-producing machine has turned the humanities into a societal embarrassment, a jumble of bizarre cultural detritus, and the last few generations of schoolchildren have internalised this distaste. the cultural forces which work to undervalue less-profitable pursuits such as art are then internalised by creators and consumers of art

"Do you like our owl?"
"It's magical?"
"Of course it is."
"Must be enchanted."
"Very. I'm McGonagall. It seems you feel that our syllabus is not of benefit to the public."
"Wizards are like any other student. They're either a benefit or a hazard. If they're a benefit... It's not my problem.'
"May I ask you a personal question, Mr Hagrid?"
"Sure."
"Have you ever retired a muggle by mistake?"

today BIPOC, queer, trans, and disabled comrades were on the front lines. like literally parked their chairs in front of the black bloc to the point the police tried to arrest them in order to get better access to arresting others. the man on the left was arrested. the bravery shown literally brought me to tears and has me reflecting on what it even means to hold the line
