AND: Since I'm seeing a lot of comments of incomprehension, let me front page what I wrote in the comments:
First, I'm sick of feeling that I need to click on the names of celebrities I care about when they are listed as trending.
It's so irritating to waste time clicking only to find out it's that person's birthday again. Ugh! That isn't news. That's a boring thing that happens every year for everyone.
But I click on Dylan because if there is one celebrity I dearly care about, who it brings me to tears just to think one day I may read that he's died, it is Bob Dylan.
"Dylan," standing alone, means Bob Dylan. No one else.
If it's anyone other than Bob Dylan, they need to use the full name. It's downright abusive to those of us who care about Bob to say "Dylan" is trending when it's just this upstart TikTok personality.
And now that I think of it, I think Twitter does this on purpose, to get credit for clicks that would not be clicked if there were more information. It's a con. I'm going to stop clicking on the links in the sidebar. If I see a name I care about, I'm going to google the person's name to see if there's any real news about them.

The musician Billy Bragg must love that someone else has a blue check with his name and is desperate for online attention.
I can’t make heads nor tails out of this post.
Bill Bragg. Culture hero. I'd like to be friends with...whatever Billy Bragg is.
Somewhere. A circus has lost their bearded lady.
Is that really Billy Bragg? And what conversation was he responding to? It looked like two doctors got in a spat over transgenderism, but I could only see one doctor’s words.
"I've got mixed-up confusion, man and it's a-killin' me"
What a bore.
The message has still been lost, under the weight of all this shrill insistence that we care.
We don't care, and we ain't gonna care. Nobody's going to be made to cheer your parade.
The backlash is not because we hate this Hot Mess in a Dress. The backlash is because we are not going to be compelled, and are offended that you think normal people are that weak, that they would be so compelled - that they would put themselves and their kids in danger. It's not going to work, because across human history, it hasn't worked - and people are much more empowered today, more than they ever have been. Especially since the COVID public policy follies.
Get help - or not.
Can we just talk about Bob(by Dan) Dillon? Would that alienate anyone? Would it be an aggression, either micro- or macro-?
A "gynecologist" is calling Americans "BIGOTS" because they don't believe a man is a woman. She should lose her license. How does she give him a pap smear when he has a penis??
The ideologues who call others bigots for "FOLLOWING the SCIENCE" are a joke, and should be shunned. Of course she is a baby killer too.
We live in an upside down world where they want us to believe THEIR science which is always bogus.
Alienated from what? The reality-denying lounge of academia?
There are two biological sexes, male and female. Dylan Mulvaney has XY chromosomes and is therefore male. Everything else is sophistry.
2 + 2 does not equal 5, no matter how much the Party insists that it is so.
It is always a dominance play when one is coerced into saying things they know to be untrue.
Dylan Mulvaney is a male, and essentially everyone does know it.
Seems like it's missing statements to make it comprehensible.
thread following is so tedious.
yeah yeah - we get it... If we re not on board allowing and cheering on fake-women who are actually biological men ruining women's sports - we are bigots.
If we are not on board with the corrupt left/corrupt teacher's unions destroying childhood with their sexualization propaganda directed at children - we are all bigots.
My law school’s athletics board has a political board that is far leftist and still defends this clown. Just look of The YouTube of him on Price is Right
I have a nephew name Dylan, there is zero problem keeping the several Dylans separate if you just remember that one is a beer spokesperson.
Femimasculinists, Forward! and don't spare the fet... feminists. Karmic irony.
The women and girls are collateral damage in the woke of social progress.
2 + 2 does not equal 5
2 + 2 "=" (politically congruent) 5
“What Is a Gynecologist? - WebMD
A gynecologist is a doctor who specializes in female reproductive health. They diagnose and treat issues related to the female reproductive tract“
If you don’t need to be female to be a woman what is the point of “gender affirming” medical care, doctor? At some point you have to admit the connection between sex and gender. That doesn’t make one a bigot.

Gender Dysphoria (GD) is real. GD folks identify as persons of the opposite biological sex. One treatment is gender reassignment surgery. And we are told that anyone who opposes that treatment for GD folks is a hater-bigot
Body Integrity Dysphoria (BID) is also real. BID folks are fully able-bodied folks who identify as either paraplegics or amputees. Treatment options include amputation of fully functioning limbs and surgical paralysis (for a dramatic portrayal, see the film "Quid Quo Pro"). Does it also follow that anyone who opposes the amputation of fully functioning limbs and/or surgical paralysis for BID folks a hater-bigot? Or do they just possess common sense?
Transgenderism is big right now because it incorporates sex and politics, two of the three topics that at one time, weren't considered acceptable in polite conversation (the third being religion). And there's a big national election on the horizon but unfortunately this time around gay marriage (which hit all three topics) has been put to bed, and so politically speaking it's sound asleep. And as such, the powers that be needed a replacement. And surprise, surprise, they've found one. But it's not quite the hot-button issue gay marriage was, which is why they had to included the children.

What the hell took you so long?
Hmmm. I think of Bobby Dillon, 4-time All-Pro defensive back for the Green Bay Packers in the 1950s.
Dillon played his entire career with a glass eye. According to one story, during a game in his professional career, Dillon's glass eye fell out onto the field. As he picked it up, a referee joked to Dillon, "What would you do if you lost your other eye?" Dillon responded, "I'd be a referee." (per our good friends at Wikipedia)
Colored association is front page, headline news.
A baby and fetus appear in the same womb. What's in a name.
“There are two biological sexes, male and female. Dylan Mulvaney has XY chromosomes and is therefore male.”
I’ve been watching YouTube videos that feature or are created by intersex people. They and science may disagree with you that there are only two biological sexes. Who cares what celebrities say, boring, science is much more interesting.
DSD also known as intersexed
"......somebody else says, “Where what is?”
And you say, “Oh my God
Am I here all alone?”
Old lady yells at clouds.
The bulk of social media are the young...27 years old and know nothing. Nothing much before yesterday, and certainly nothing before cell phones.
Agree. Its never anything interesting or important about the celebrity you're interested in.
""Dylan," standing alone, means Bob Dylan. No one else."
"He's so unhip that when you say Dylan
He thinks you're talking about Dylan Thomas
Whoever he was
The man ain't got no culture"
A Simple Desultory Philippic (Or How I Was Robert McNamara'd Into Submission)

"When you say Dylan, he thinks you're talking 'bout Dylan Thomas - whoever he was. The man ain't got no cultyah"
Never fret my dear, Bob may be the survivor.
What Mulvaney really is, is a drag queen. Except that he's putting on a show and wants us to take it seriously. Real drag queens want us to know it's a show, and everyone can have a good time. No kids, though.
Louanne: Because whoever wins the, uh, the-- the Dylan-Dylan contest...
Student 1: The what?
Louanne: goes there for dinner with me.
Student 2: Hey, what's the Dylan-Dylan contest about?
Louanne: Well. There's Bob Dylan, who we've been reading.
Louanne: And then... there's Dylan Thomas, who also wrote poems.
Louanne: lf you can find the poem written by Dylan Thomas... that is like a poem written by Bob Dylan, you win the Dylan-Dylan contest.
Is that really Billy Bragg?
No. The real BB became a TRA (if they say they're a woman, then they're a woman) and some women responded with "If I say I'm Billy Bragg, then I'm Billy Bragg" just to wind him up.
To be fair, he's easily wound up.
I was extremely confused for a long time when I saw a reference to LBJ only to realize that it wasn't in reference to the former president.
"Dylan," standing alone, means Bob Dylan. No one else.
You are not alone. When I see Dylan, it means Bob Dylan, and no one else. He is iconic. The most amazing thing to me is that Dylan is such a good writer and performer that his cemenet mixer voice is little more than a sidenote. Worst singing voice in a big star I can think of, and it detracts not at all when you watch him perform any of his signature songs.
This is why I don't immerse myself in this stuff. The algorithms will drag you to something trending that is irrelevant or the the subject of the programmers biases and I don't like the assumption of interest.
I think if Dylan Thomas.
