Didja know? I'm always watching!

[galliumgummysharks]

the masculine feminine and frankly universal urge to become a massive fucking dragon

[elf-hollow]

I'm tired of pretending it's not literally fucking fine to read a character as transfem because they are feminine. why are transfem headcanons the only ones that require a burden of proof to you? don't worry, you don't have to tell me. I already know why.

[tarragonthedragon]

i just got the "see where your blood has gone!" email from giving blood but it glitched and just showed me my current location. which. theyre not wrong. that is where most of my blood is

[tarragonthedragon]

idk i just feel like "it is more acceptable and in fact encouraged to mock anything enjoyed primarily by women" and "being enjoyed primarily by women does not make thing feminist and righteous" are thoughts that can and should coexist

[tarragonthedragon]

oh and also "even if the thing is bad your criticism of it can come from a place of patronising misogyny"

putting everyone in time out until they can stop responding to increasingly transmisogynistic public bathroom laws with "and this is extra bad because it will impact cis women who don't fit traditional standards of femininity too!!"

[morganitism]

*swings a pendulum in front of you* oooooh you wanna stop using psycho/psychotic as insults so badly. and psychopath. and sociopath. and antisocial. and homebound. and schizo. and narcissist(ic). and braindead. and mouthbreather. and delusional. and

[grfygrf]

It's occurred to me that the core of pretty much any name-calling is going to be some level of ableism, racism, sexism, etc. so maybe we all would benefit from being more direct in the criticisms we have for people we don't like. Like, say what you actually mean instead of using disabilities as a proxy for the word "bad"

[flareonfloof]

you're not gonna believe the origins of the word "bad"

"It was just a joke!"

Sure. It also wasn't very funny and it bombed. And now you have to deal with that.

[myfootyrthroat]

"You can't even tell a joke anymore!?"

You can and you did. And people can react to it. Here we are.

[cis-yphus]

“I’m being SILENCED”

Damn I wish you were but here I am, still hearing you

[myfootyrthroat]

Having a national platform but not being unanimously adored == censorship.

[anticurses]

literally what is up with this

[sailatina3]

Oh also, perhaps you should give some thought into the production of those funko pops and other consumer goods. Who's making it? What is their pay? What are the conditions? How does that production affect the price? Does it affect the price?

It's like some king of.... commodity fetishism.

But nah im sure consumer goods are completely neutral things that we shouldn't worry about. Im sure nobody has written anything about this topic for decades.... or centuries....

[thwrangis]

the littlest het slop

[communistkenobi]

everyone rightfully complains about how the r word is back in vogue now but I think the people talking about how using ChatGPT makes you a small brained lazy degenerate are getting off way too easy

[txttletale]

it is--if not really surprising--so frustrating how extremely elementary, like literally "race in media 101" type criticisms of the racism in video games is received by white liberals with pronouns the exact same way that anita sarkeesian was received by neogaf chuds

as a tme person with a transfeminine sister it is extremely clear to me that we absolutely do not have an equivalent experience.

she did not experience "male socialization." when i look back on our childhood, it is easy to understand that there was no privilege to that concept. she was forced to try and shrink herself into the shape of a man, and was abused when she didn't succeed at playing the part. being "raised as a boy" only highlighted the stark incongruity between what was expected of her and what she was. this repeatedly led to her facing violence.

and to be clear i genuinely don't care if you think a rude comment from an exasperated trans woman online is as equally bad as the literal risk of her being murdered when she walks outside. this is not a competition, being the most visible is not a prize. i genuinely fear for my sister's life.
