"lock in" is probably one of the most important phrases to enter the public lexicon in the 2020s

Today is the day to post this

Spent a ridiculous amount of time last night obsessively editing my hand written zines in Photoshop to take away any tiny blemishes so they were definitely readable.

Whatever. Understand or don't.

The issue of trans women being sent to men's prisons isn't brought up as being a monstrous thing because of the misgendering, it's monstrous because we're sent there to be legally sex trafficked.

That's what V-coding is. That is why they are so adamant about sending trans women to men's prisons, because sex trafficking trans women within the men's prison system is an essential part of that system. Being misgendered by this isn't even an issue that's on our radar!

A real page on the White House website

bogleech

In case people missed it, another real page on the white house website pretends to "reveal the truth about ALIENS" and once again means immigrants, which it calls "its."

4chan took over the country.

This is actually fucking insanely horrifying what the fuck

dumbpuppyfag

discussion about right wing radicalisation focuses near-exclusively on men becoming white nationalists but i wonder how it might manifest elsewhere. like, imagine a heavily online subculture of mostly women and they're dedicated to rooting out degeneracy, maintaining a rigid social order, refusing to acknowledge scientific consensus, being violently paranoid of a dehumanised other, adhering to exclusively eurocentric standards of beauty and politically dedicated to exterminating a minority group (possibly one that was already historically targeted for genocide). that'd be fuckin crazy lol

dumbpuppyfag

normal thing you say to complete strangers when your brain isn't cooked ^_^

whereserpentswalk

It's amazing how you made a post saying radfems are just like nazis, and then someone went into the comments to call you a slur to prove it.

allegedly-human

nonsense words such as "blorbo" and "skibidi" are outliers and a minuscule minority and thus do not invalidate that statement

minihood31770

Skibidi coming from scat, an art form pioneered by black people, is actually AAVE, and not an outlier.

The Dom should be praised too

drowsy-corpsegirl

Take care of your doms. Praise them. Make them feel cared for and loved. Or you don't deserve them.

This applies doubly, x10 tbh, to transfemme doms. You NEED to be nice to her, you NEED to let her know she is doing a good job. That transfemme dom might have a lot of issues with her self worth, she may have been used up and left a discarded husk so many times.

Sorry but I got sick of scrolling through the notes on this on desktop and seeing all the red usernames marked by shinigami eyes reblogging this.

I'm a transfemme dom and I'm proud of it. Take care of us. Love us.

And then no one reblogged this version

huge fan of the depth of a good purple but another area that draws me is definitely around aquamarine/turquoise/seafoam. you can not go wrong once the green starts getting just a tinge more blue. a gal could certainly do worse than to pull over there and stay a while

something earth shattering going on here

this is why one of my favorite all-time paintings is Ship in Stormy Seas by Ivan Aivazovsky... he was really onto something there

a close up to just... light shining through those waves, makes me feel faint with exhilaration every time

THERE IS A BOAT BY IVAN AIVAZOVSKY!!

clayandsorcery

Ivan Aivazovsky could paint glowing water. One of the GOATs for sure.

isuggesttakingestrogen

I feel like she has a fundamental misunderstanding of multiple things here

spaceysoupy

Ah yes, the privilege of being "disappeared" and your body never being recovered. The privilege of being poisoned by oil or radioactive waste or illegal dumping. The privilege of your ongoing genocide being ignored. The privilege of the only reason we are US citizens in the first place is so they could steal our land easier. Fucking anigalvtsi bitch revisionist bullshit. This is full on, mask off nazi shit.

At this point if you deny her racism around me, I'm considering you to harbor the same views and blocking on sight.

claimhte

I want to broaden the scope here, less because I want to draw attention away from this specific person and more because I am seeing a really concerning trend and this is no longer "singular person being racist"

there are currently a bunch of europeans and americans trying to say this same thing about indigenous people and disguising it as anti-American rhetoric. similar is happening wrt the rhetoric around black people being yankees etc

who benefits from drawing enemy lines between indigenous peoples of the world? who benefits from further dividing people of color in ways that are, instead of being an internal conversation (which happens constantly btw), simplified down into things white people feel comfortable taking stances on? who benefits from framing anti-American sentiment as being reactionary and racist? what do they gain by doing this? pitting different groups against each other has been a longstanding tactic of white supremacy re: pitting indigenous people against black people, creating the model minority myth surrounding asian people, pitting "good" immigrants against "bad" immigrants, etc. the goal has always been to prevent us from working together

@gendernewtral holy shit what??

an update to my insulin pump (a model which is highly recommended by doctors because it has software you can update, unlike other models) would allow my doctor to see more of my medical data because of the way my pump would now function.

i technically had the choice not to update it, but if i didn’t, my insurance company would not cover the cost of fixing or replacing it if something happened to it. they could say that the damage came from not updating the system, even if the damage was completely external.

some of the software updates have been beneficial, and have made my life easier. however, the choice to use these new system has always been made for me. i can’t afford to replace this $3000 device that allows me to live without injecting insulin upwards of five times a day.

disabled people already live in a world that is hypermanaged by people who have absolute control over our health and safety. anyone with a prosthetic, hearing aid, or pacemaker can face the same problem i did if the manufacturer decides they need to exert their presence in our lives more than they already do. the “cyberpunk dystopia” is already here, and if you want to change the ever-growing vice grip of “smart technology,” help disabled activists. we’ve been here all along.

(if you want a short primer on what it’s like to be disabled and rely on technology, read Jillian Weise’s personal essay in Alice Wong’s Disability Visibility).
