Stuff + Junk

Just a lot of different stuff & junk. 🏳️‍🌈 Trans/Ace/Bi/Aro/Pan/Poly-phobes (and all others) Do Not Interact. I don't have time for your bigoted one-sided foolishness. If you are open to new information, I am more than happy to have a discussion with you. If you just want to screech about how right you are and everyone else is wrong, throw yourself off a cliff. :) With love, this gay af aro/ace agender person

Hey guys

I'm gonna be leaving Tumblr. Because tumblr rather sucks. And I'm leaving like...right after I post this.

Bye. Good luck to y'all.

Do you realize that statistically this is not true, and that woman are claiming “sexual assault/harassment/abuse” at nothing?

[asekuwhale]

Do you realize your bullshit ass opinion is just fucking wrong?

Look out guys, we have a rape apologist over here.

[the-only-conservative-here]

This is not an opinion. Based on recent events and how our society is functioning today this is simply fact. I am not condoning rape, but saying that, for example, being whistled at is somehow sexual assault is insulting to those who have experienced that horror.

[asekuwhale]

You are just manipulating an idea to fit your own narrative.

Also, you dont even know what assault is.

Being whistled, catcalled, etc, is harassment.

Being touched in any inappropriate or sexual manner without penetration is assault.

Penetration (whether with genitals, mouth, hands, etc) is rape.

You are insulting to people who have experienced any of these things.

[the-only-conservative-here]

I have never said that. You are using a StrawMan argument, meaning you’re arguing against a point I did not make. I never denied that any of your latter arguments were sexual assault. However, treating being whistled at in the same caliber as being touched or penetrated just isn’t right. And that is what most of these “me too” people are saying. Saying that MOST people are sexually assaulted, over 50%, I absolutely ridiculous and just feeding the fear narrative which is being put on girls to make them think they should be afraid.

[asekuwhale]

I literally spelled it out for you and yet you still completely missed the point.

Lets try again.

Being whistled, catcalled, etc, is *harassment*.

Being touched in any inappropriate or sexual manner without penetration is *assault*.

And You said

"..Being whilsted at is somehow sexual assault..."

And I corrected you, by stating that whistling is Not considered assault By Anyone, it is Harassment.

And Yes. Most women Have been Assaulted. Not all have been raped. Maybe not even most have been raped. But most Have been ASSAULTED (which I clearly defined for you, again.)

And yes, girls do need to be wary. They do need to be cautious. Cause idiots like you exist who want to gaslight women on the problems they face. (Gaslight means to turn legitimate concerns onto the individual who has them and make Them feel bad for having those concerns.)

And the fact is, You are using the strawman argument. Not me. And yes, I already fucking know what that means. Thanks for mansplaining.

(And I hope you get the sarcasm of me defining gaslighting like you defined strawman, because if not god help you..)

Here’s a hot take

campaigning for people to stop saying things like “stupid” and “dumb” and other words that have been distanced from their ableist roots by literally hundreds of years is a semantic waste of time and also trivializes the effort to get people to stop using actual diagnoses as insults

[butterflyinthewell]

Okay, but words like idiot, moron, imbecile and even cretin were the r-slur of times past, and now those insults are used against peoples’ intelligence. “Oh, what a moronic idea.” “That guy ran a red light! What an imbecile!” “Look at this idiot singing onstage!” “Ignore the cretin who can’t figure out a simple game.” All those phrases that insult intelligence throws intellectually disabled under the bus. You can throw the r-slur into any of those sentences and they mean the same thing, that you think the person isn’t intelligent and thus a joke or somebody to ignore. The r-slur used to be a medical term like idiot, moron, imbecile and cretin were. And now all those words have become insults, because ID people are stereotyped as having zero intelligence. So please remember who you’re slamming under the bus when you think about those words. They aren’t distanced very far at all if you can switch them with the r-slur and still mean the same thing.

[autasticanna]

I totally get your point, but I feel like the context is what’s important here. Any insult directed at someone for acting in a way that’s consistent with a known disability is ableist by nature. Calling someone stupid for being a slow reader is different than calling Fox News stupid for the “3 Mexican Countries” graphic. It’s a different context and a different meaning. One means “you’re not intelligent because you read slower than other people” and the other means “you’re so blinded by racism that you think all of South America is Mexico and an entire newsroom full of grown adults couldn’t be bothered to look at a map.”

When I hear people say the r slur or call things “autistic” or “psycho” or “schizo,” they always have really specific meanings attached to those words, and meanings that are a direct comparison to people that have those actual disorders. People call others “psycho” if they’re acting erratically or unpredictably in a way they don’t like. People call others “autistic” if they’re emotional, upset or if they talk or move weird. 

Like you could sub the r slur for literally any negative adjective and it would become ableist, even if a different word wasn’t at all.

“It’s totally annoying that this red light lasts so long” vs

“It’s totally stupid that this red light lasts so long” vs

“it’s totally autistic that this red light lasts so long”

Calling the red light “stupid” isn’t comparing it to anybody, it’s just an expression of your dislike of the situation. A red light has no intelligence, it’s just a thing. Nothing ableist about it. Conversely, saying it’s “autistic” is attaching a negative connotation to a real, actual group of people that belong to that title. 

Insulting someone’s intelligence is technically always ableist. It’s just the nature of the beast. But it’s way more damaging to make direct, intentional and specific comparisons between something you don’t like and a current, widely known diagnosis.

I think it’s more productive to say “don’t use diagnoses as insults” and even “don’t insult people’s intelligence” than to say “don’t use words that might in some way be ableist if you squint really hard at them.” I’m not trying to be like confrontational or anything but does that make sense?

[asekuwhale]

Does anyone even say cretin anymore...

Also anyone who runs a red light Is stupid. When you make the decision to do something inherently wrong, that is stupid. That is what it means now.

Language changes. Like you said, idiot used to be a medical term. Then it was an insult. Now its just general dismay. Or when someone makes the decision to do something they shouldn't when they obviously know better.

Well I'm sold..

[silverhawk]

the fact that moray eels have a pharyngeal jaw that they can just…..move from the back of their throat is pretty fucking awesome but also terrifying. moray eels are filed under “sea creatures who i respect from a distance and that distance being on land from behind my computer screen”

[silverhawk]

crab: ah fuck im in a bit of a conundrum, maybe if i wiggle i can-

moray eels pharyngeal jaw: no

imagine a horror movie where all the characters are gen z and not particularly scared of dying

[grxnk1d]

killer on the phone with a character: i’m in your house and i will kill you

character: alright lit hurry up tho

[aconstellationofbruises]

The fakest part of this is a Gen Z kid answering the phone

[sambibomb]

killer via dm on ig: i’m in your house and i will kill you

character: alright queen👏🏼💖 hurry up🔥🔥💦💦

[srvfan17]

The only “adult” in the movie is a millennial who’s also not scared of dying, but is somewhat grumpier about the situation bc “if I die I don’t have to pay loans anymore but I just found a barber that doesn’t judge me for crying sometimes so idk what to do anymore” and is just like mildly inconvenienced by it

[asekuwhale]

Millenials would go after the killer with like a spoon and be all "Lets fucking do this then, you afraid to die? cause I ain't!" And the killer gonna be all confused and scared cause that fucker is just going all out with a spoon.

And thr Gen Z kids are gonna be live tweeting everything like an epic saga.

[spongebob-autisticquestions]

You know, I really don’t get the “Son of a *****” insult. Idk the “best” way to explain it, but I’ll try: Basically, why insult someone’s mother if they’re not the target of your (usually) rage, and especially if you know NOTHING about them?

(Submitted by @Shadowking2015)

My response: I think it’s supposed to just provoke an angry response from the person by insulting what is usually regarded as one of the closest people to them. I think it’s stupid, pointless, and basically just means, “I can’t insult you so I’ll insult someone else”

[asekuwhale]

Well it makes more sense if you went back to when it was first coined.

Back then, the family you came from had a good deal of importance in your life. Come from bad blood? You were viewed as worthless and equally bad, even if you'd done nothing.

So the insult Son of a B**** is saying you come from a low/poor/bad mother/family. And saying such things was a pretty serious offense, because a persons entire life could be dictated by their family's status.

Now days it doesnt really mean anything.

[fried-egg-the-13th]

Reasonable person: I’m getting treatment for my mental illness because I hate what it has done to my life

Some cunt on tumblr: sounds ableist :/

[cock-munching-dva]

Cause it is ….

If you’re privileged enough to get treatment shut the fuck up about it or use your privilege to fund other people …

Also recovery as a concept is ableist ?? You can’t fully recover and expecting people to is horse shit

[fried-egg-the-13th]

[autasticanna]

“stop crying ableism as an excuse to shit on people 2kForever” 

[asekuwhale]

As a person with autism, that doesnt need any treatment, and someone with a fuckload of other mental problems that Do need treatment but its all treatment resistant..

My little overwatch universe can literally go fuck themselves for clearly having no idea what the hell theyre talking about.

Boosting this warning!

[chimaeracabra]

Oh, shit. Really?

[lokicolouredglasses]

If you’re nearby, especially if you’re white, you should stick around and have your camera out.

Snopes says the cops in the photo here claim it was a hot day, and they were trying to prevent the cars overheating, but 1) Cops can lie and 2) Even if these cops DID have a good reason, I wouldn’t be surprised if there are others out there with less honest intentions.

Keep an eye out, and be safe.

[wishful-thinkment]

snopes: we asked the cops if these cops were up to no good and they said that they weren’t so it turns out that everything’s fine and there’s nothing to see here

[gemstone-gynoid]

Oh absolutely

[ragemovement]

Yeah lemme just block the road with my hood up to cool down my car….

Fun fact: cop cars are performance machines that use high tech parts to maintain power and reliability (the cops are lying)

[asekuwhale]

I mean honestly those cars look old and are probably garbage at this point.

But the chances of two vehicles overheating to the point of hood popping at the same time in the same place is pretty ridiculous.

[positivityisntdiscourse]

y’all blatantly hate ace people regardless of whether they’re cis & straight, this isn’t news to us

[recalcitrant-itinerant]

Exclusies:

Also Exclusies:

But wait here’s the best one:

[zemathememequeen]

Apparently exclusionists really are this fucking clueless lmao.

[asekuwhale]

Well, as an ace and aro person

One of my purposes in life is to straight up piss off aphobes.

And no, I will not be dying, I am literally immortal. So sucks for y'all.

[valtsv]

u ever get really apathetic about your interests for no reason so u just start cycling through all your past hyperfixations in ur head out of an inexplicable need to feel passion for something

[valtsv]

me trying to be interested in anything in the middle of a Depressive Episode™:

[loughnesstwo-deactivated2021101]

are your grandparents “Braums for breakfast and Western Sizzler for dinner” grandparents

or “We Don’t Even Look At Grease, Fat, Crisco, Or Anything Of The Sort” grandparents

[asekuwhale]

My grandmom used to keep a large can of old bacon grease in the cabinet.

I have no idea why.

But maybe that answers your question.

[loughnesstwo-deactivated2021101]

Hey! I’m fucking pissed, so here’s a reminder!

LET YOUR FUCKING KIDS HAVE FUN! AND DO THINGS THEY WANT!

[asekuwhale]

Honestly what's even the point of having kids if you're not doing the fun things they want.

[vegannerdgirl]

[veganmemesyearly]

Ok but in 2019 its more like: Teenager sneaks outside to vape

[asekuwhale]

More like Teenager sneaks outside to get vaccinations.

[blackqueerblog]

straight men really are on something else

[illegitimatetenenbaum]

Does this guy think that…women don’t have knees?

[sodomymcscurvylegs]

[asekuwhale]

Ive had my knee skin ripped off twice. Once in concrete when the dog pulled me over (I was like 4 or 5 years old) and once when the motorcycle I was riding slide on sand and laid down. (had blood oozing down my leg snd pieces of road in my knee.)

Those were like wee little scratches compared to my periods.

Cishet guys should really shut up.
