CATS
let’s talk about housecats and how fucking weird they are evolutionarily/anthropologically
like who thought it was a good idea to have tiny malicious predators in our homes anyways????? (not us actually)
are they even domesticated????!!!?? (yes) do they even feel LOVE???????!!? (yes)
LET’S LEARN ABOUT CATS
“you ready 2 learn punk”

TL;DR: Cats are bonobo rationalists with degenerate neotenic cuddle piles and everything. They figured out species-atypically prosocial norms in an environment of plenty, and won
Even more reasons to be exceptionally fond of them :3

Just to be clear, I’m actually fucking serious about this one. Applying for it, and overthrowing them later if I can’t take over and systematically reform them.
Because of stuff like this. “the aggressor is almost always a man and the victim a woman”; “Finnish government should make it clear that female [emphasis added] circumcision is a violation of human rights and as such is unacceptable.”; “Other major problems include trafficking in women, prostitution and pornography [and their] side effects.” (translation is as shitty as the implications of their policies because finnish is fucking weird)
Like, there’s an extremely obvious way in which you could’ve not thrown people under the bus, yet you deliberately chose not to do it. You deliberately excluded people from the “deserving of having their issues addressed” group. And I’m not talking about any “All lives matter” derailment bullshit but more like “there’s sexism outside tech and colleges you know”.
Also, how about we talk about the way evidence suggests pornography, if anything, reduces sexual violence. Yeah, welcome to the real world where stuff is not always pretty and clear-cut and awfully convenient. Or maybe we should discuss your bullshit attitude towards sex workers.
And then there’s all the grassroots transmisogyny etc. of which there’s ample reports but which they naturally neglect to mention on their website (serious accountability and transparency procedures: my reform #3 if I get the job). Or the way it began as a non-segregated organization but proceeded to throw out everyone except binary cis women in the late 1900s, and then the old guard uses dirty procedural tricks to keep it that way.
So yes, takings-over are quite warranted.

An application for a job in the state feminist organization: a rap battle
Oh hi
I heard
you need a head
secretary substitute
and well
I thought
I’d be sufficiently
resolute
to take
over
and make
over
just like once
before
yes I’m that queer
child of a w-
-wait a minute are
you insulting the people I’m working for?
I expect that long
before
this message reaches
its destination
it will long have
been preceded
by my reputation
the community I
hijacked
the wetware I hacked
a lot of people were
sacked, several times replaced
by those who never
before had seen such a place
now we’ve built one
and whitespace is a word
that needs to stay
limited to my programming world
We take ideas
seriously, no point in wasting time
get called out, go
all out, pivot on a dime
we do a thorough
rebrand with a single solid argument
your sclerotic
democracy is a parody of government
endless
filibustering never updating beliefs
I’m sure
anti-feminists are sighing from relief
your arguments are
outdated your statistics so shitty
that the only way to
support them is purely out of pity
Now we’re a lean,
keen change-making machine
I admit sometimes
we’ve been a little bit mean
but our theory is
polished to an impeccable sheen
and you surely can
see the implacable gleam
in our eyes as we
set our sights on the prize
getting ready to
fight tired of paying the price of your dangerous lies
so often decried but
we won’t be defied denied the place you’ve defiled
flashing predator
smiles at the people reviled
“autogynephile”
welcome pot meet kettle
are you ready for a
match to truly test your mettle
or just content to
watch as the deals get settled
shutting out the
shut-ins hiding away the sins
ableism towards
those lacking your respect-ability
So let me see you
require a degree
so when did they
start issuing those on the streets
or the sheets of the
workers, forced to stay discreet
as your nordic model
citizens push deeper with their feet
yeah the foot in the
boot on the necks of the dregs
the social rejects
of this social democracy
the mockery and the crookery of the modern day rookery
yet it’s always
dismissed as an ivory tower
when we start
speaking our truth to your power
so you’re looking
for someone who knows their Irigaray and Butler
well let me tell you
this I’ve learned more useful shit on Tumblr
And seriously are
you such complete fools
the pay that you’re
offering is enough for two
in fact that’s
exactly what I’m planning to do!
Give you twice the
workers still with a fair compensation
skip paying for
pensions route it through a corporation
I’m expecting some
tensions but do you get the implication
have you ever
listened to our generation
in your middle-aged
blind faith in the goodness of your nation?
Since 1991 we’ve
been the targets of austerity
the cuts always
financing baby boomers’ own prosperity
we see behind the
rhetoric and know what they are saying
means we’ll never
see a cent of all the money we’d be paying
You may be in favor
of being looted by thy neighbour
but we millenials
will keep the fruits of our own labor
(and buy bednets
with ten percent of it
but you wouldn’t understand what I’m talking
about)
So yes, we’ll skip
funding the benefits
of the exact people
responsible for causing the decifits
of equal rights and
money alike
the ones who’d be
missing it are old dudes, not dykes
With the above in
mind I submit my application
ready to be
interviewed at your chosen location
keep in mind this is
an offer we won’t be offering twice
what you’re doing is
picking your sides
will you be ready to
reform or be swept aside
when I return one day with
an unstoppable tide
