@saddestrobots@jorts.horsei should probably tell youtube not to recommend me this thing but i'm kinda happy to just have it sit there in my side bar so i can look at it and think, "sucks to suck, lmao"
@saddestrobots [jorts.horse] I keep seeing this go round and I'm constantly "yes, maybe you should have been good at stuff"
Academia sucks, but her failing is the greatest endorsement of it
@saddestrobots@silverwizard @hypolite

"once you terf-post you can never post normal again" theory wins again :o
@saddestrobots@hypolite @silverwizard
she makes a bunch of ok science videos but also tried to both-sides transphobia with a bunch of dumbass handwringing about trans women's advantages in sports or whatever
@saddestrobots@silverwizard @hypolite

and clearly out-of-left-field / out-of-your-depth type shit, like why would you make yourself the arbiter of this shit you clearly don't understand
@Wildheart_Baby@saddestrobots I failed and why its not my fault.

@saddestrobots@Wildheart_Baby

(her 30-minute summary of how palestine was colonized is very good even if you don't want to learn anything about the politics of astronomy, imo)
@Wildheart_Baby@saddestrobots that section about Palestine was interesting, and the bit about sending Jewish ppl back to Germany in 1943 was sickening, it feels like the same ppl were probably later using the holocaust as justification for atrocities against Palestinians.
