can you put that thing on a leash?
there's no fucking way
"trans women can just detransition to get male privilege" coming from transandrobros is honestly an incredible level of projection coming from guys who seem to think clinging to their agab grants them some kind of holy moral purity that absolves them of their own misogyny. like man I don't know about you but for me, my transition is permanent and it's based in respect for myself, it's not a decision I can walk back at any given moment when it's rhetorically convenient
learning not to perpetuate the internalized misogyny taught by our culture is an actual effort everyone have to make. you can't nepo baby into not being misogynistic
"aha! but I'm actually Fundamentally a woman unlike you freaks, which means when you try to criticize my misogyny, you're actually the one being misogynistic!"

A note from the Tumblr team
A few weeks ago, a small but higher-than-normal number of accounts were mistakenly suspended. The suspensions were quickly reversed, but our response wasn't good enough, and we want to say more.
We're sorry it took us this long to address this. Trust and safety issues are difficult to discuss publicly, and we can’t share details about specific individuals or how our systems work without exposing Tumblr to bad actors. But caution led us to say too little, too late.
We’ve heard from members of the trans community on Tumblr that they were disproportionately impacted, and that deserves a direct response. According to 3rd party researchers, Tumblr’s userbase has the highest proportion of LGBTQIA+ folks on social media, so it makes sense that when something goes wrong, those communities might feel that disproportionate impact.
One thing we want to emphasize is that we do not moderate people's identities. We moderate behavior. We know that identity shows up across a Tumblr profile in many ways, from followed topics to the flags people put in their bios, and more. However, these signals play no role in how our moderation systems make decisions. We monitor those systems for evidence of bias and take corrective action when we find it.
We understand that the communications sent to affected users, and our broader silence to the community, didn't meet the standard people expect from us. That feedback is fair, and we apologize. We've updated the messaging sent to people impacted by these incidents. We are also overhauling our process with a goal of responding to mistaken suspension appeals within 24 hours, and have instituted an ongoing internal review of how suspensions and appeals are handled.
Going forward, we're committed to finding a better balance: being more transparent with our community about issues that matter, even when we can't share everything.
Tumblr belongs to everyone. We take that seriously, and we intend to earn back your trust. We are not afraid to have tough discussions with you or make updates based on your feedback, though on occasion, it might take some time.
To the people whose accounts were affected, and to the members of our trans community who felt targeted: we are truly sorry.

Providing my own data on this issue, since i have had the pleasure of gathering a great amount of evidence on this event:
a small but higher-than-normal number of accounts were mistakenly suspended
Two hundred within five minutes.
The suspensions were quickly reversed
Some suspensions were reversed.
We’ve heard from members of the trans community on Tumblr that they were disproportionately impacted
Correction. All members harmed but one were trans women, specifically, not just "members of the trans community".
We moderate behavior.
All members terminated were terminated after following one specific blog, created a few hours before. The "behavior" you moderated was following a trans woman's new blog.
However, these signals play no role in how our moderation systems make decisions.
Then explain why trans women are disproportionately banned on false grounds. What happens if someone gets mass reported by transphobic userrs? Why have you chosen to restore the account of a kiwifarmer, known hate group, and ban yet more trans women? Explain your decisions.
We are also overhauling our process with a goal of responding to mistaken suspension appeals within 24 hours, and have instituted an ongoing internal review of how suspensions and appeals are handled.
Going forward, we're committed to finding a better balance: being more transparent with our community about issues that matter, even when we can't share everything.
Since this event, trans women have been terminated at greatly accelerated rates, on more and more openly false grounds. Their appeals have been denied often without any human oversight, recieving a denial within seconds, or not recieving any answer.
To the people whose accounts were affected, and to the members of our trans community who felt targeted: we are truly sorry.
I don't believe you.
If you could keep any animal as a pet, what would it be?
Now I'm talking about animals that you really cannot keep us a pet either because of legal reasons, ethics, danger… In our scenario, this animal is happy with you and it loves you.

Hate. Let me tell you how much I've come to hate golf since I began to live. There are roughly 2.25 million acres of land dedicated to golfing in the United States of America. If the word 'hate' was engraved on each blade of grass in those millions of acres, it would not equal one one-billionth of the hate I feel for golf courses at this micro-instant. For golf. Hate. Hate.
she's so epics,,,(WIP)
infofump:
Hitomi is standoffish and rather purposely takes up space because she prefers being open about her presentation around people she trusts. she expresses her transfemininity with a more tomboyish style, liking big pants, belts, chains etc that aligns with her alt taste.
personality wise besides being comfortably herself around friends, she's quiet and nervous around people she does know, stoic and shy. she carries a lot of trauma around being herself and her journey as a trans woman but she finds comfort soon. she will never stop being herself
also she's a big tech nerd in private, loves arts and crafts and using her paws to create stuff!
home girl also struggles with her racialized identity, being japanese/part Okinawan from Dad's side and polish from her mother's side.
she tries her hardest to indulge in her respective cultures, taking on a Japanese name and polish middle name, and even attempting (and somewhat failing) to learn Japanese because she's so Americanized.
she struggles to connect but meets friends (and Hitch) who all struggle in certain ways around their heritage.
