This emerging Feminism v. Trans civil war on the Left is getting interesting. I better be careful or I will become obese from eating too much popcorn.

Deeply disturbed, profoundly unhappy people. Totally insane.

If vegans started eating transgender fish (tilapia - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tilapia read bottom of ‘Commercial Species’ section) would they be forgiven?

I’ve been loving this homemade popcorn recipe. There’s more cleanup than bagged microwaved popcorn, but the taste is superior (I use Old Thompson’s Garlic Salt Grinder to season butter)

Cook’s Country Homemade Buttered Popcorn Recipe

To make stovetop popcorn that’s just as easy as the microwave kind, we start by heating three “test” kernels with vegetable oil in a saucepan until the kernels pop—that means the oil’s hot enough. We add the rest of the kernels off the burner, letting them heat up for 30 seconds to ensure even cooking. After that, it takes just a few minutes over medium-high heat with the lid slightly ajar for all the corn to pop. A few choice seasonings and you’re ready for movie night.

MAKES 14 CUPS

You don’t need to shake the pan as the corn pops.

INGREDIENTS

3 tablespoons vegetable oil
1/2 cup popcorn kernels
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
1/4 teaspoon salt

INSTRUCTIONS

1. Heat oil and 3 kernels in large saucepan over medium-high heat until kernels pop. Remove pan from heat, add remaining kernels, cover, and let sit for 30 seconds.

2. Return pan to medium-high heat. Continue to cook with lid slightly ajar until popping slows to about 2 seconds between pops. Transfer popcorn to large bowl. Add melted butter and toss to coat popcorn. Add salt and toss to combine. Serve.

TEST KITCHEN TECHNIQUE: LEAVE LID AJAR

With our method, you don’t have to shake the pan steadily—or at all—while the corn pops. But do keep the lid slightly ajar so the steam, but not the popping kernels, can escape, guaranteeing crispy, light popcorn.

"super trans-exclusionary"

I am getting the point that the LEFT is in danger of running out of expressive adjectives. This danger is not sufficiently expressed by 'trans-exclusionary' but has to be raised to the ultimate by using 'super!' The Modern Language Association (MLA), a militantly LEFT academic polemical group, has much to answer for, especially in the failure to do their basic job of teaching rather than indoctrinating!

The fact that these folks are idiots is obvious.

The fact that we put up with them by not laughing them out of the room makes it obvious that we also are idiots.

I’m confused, WTF? Am I so far out of transism that I didn’t know XX females are fighting XY females? Then again, I have more important things with life.

You mean there is a reason to actually like Vegans?

This is what happens when you have too much time on your hands, and don’t know what to do with it.

I clicked through to the source document. There is hope.

The author, Mahealani Joy "is a Contributing Writer for Everyday Feminism and kanaka maoli queer woman currently living in the Midwest. They (sic? Maybe? I dunno?) are involved in organizing to end sexual violence against Native women and finding ways to strengthen Indigenous communities."

But THEN I see a banner asking for contributions as the website -everydayfeminism - is about to go out of business. I click through.

We’re facing scary financial trouble that’s threatening to put a halt to our work – maybe even as soon as the end of May.

We’ve realized that we’re just not going to be able to continue without some support from our community.

We’re not the only site struggling like this, and there’s a reason for that. It’s quite a challenge, to say the least, to create independent, intersectional feminist media in a financially sustainable way, especially in a world that doesn’t value what we do. (Emphasis added)

They are about halfway toward their $50k goal

It is not unusual for the underdog to thrive - look at Fox's ascent during the Obama years and the flipped fortunes of Fox and MSNBC with the Trump Presidency. But if this website won't make it - and I don't wish unemployment on anyone - then there is GREAT hope that this kind of nonsense may evaporate in good time.

I must remember to stock up on popcorn. This will be a lovely fight.

Gosh, it can be hard reconciling one irrationality with another. It’s like crazy people in an asylum trying to hold a lucid conversation.

It wont be long before Liberal gatherings feature no one saying a word for fear of offending someone.

The nice thing about all these left-wing bizarros is that they’re all so sure of their own particular superiority and rectitude that eventually they can’t help but turn on each other and devour themselves - Republicans of course have the opposite problem - they’re so unsure of themselves that they defensively and precipitously attack anyone who seems to disagree with them to try to convince themselves that they’re correct - I’m hoping eventually the left will catch up with them in self-destructiveness......
