the problem with "isn't a queerplatonic partnership just being friends?" isn't the "friends" part, it's the "just" part.
many defenses of the queerplatonic relationship label miss the entire point: the QUEERING of a PLATONIC relationship. it is not "more than friendship but less than romance", it is a friendship that breaks the boundaries of what's expected of one, to the point that "friend" may not feel like a strong enough word in a society that treats certain types of affection and levels of commitment as "above" friendship.

praying for everyone Black in Belfast rn. hella Black ppl lost they homes as a result of this antiblack terrorism.
like ok allegedly the white people in Northern Ireland terrorizing mainly Black people and poc are British loyalists and not “real Irish” but that video stating that is showing more concern for the white Irish people currently hiding in their homes “in fear” of harm, while real life Black people are actively being harmed lmao like??? get up! if you say you’re not like these white supremacists than show up in defense for the Black people currently being mobbed by people who look like you!
paying liberal lip service does nothing but make sure history doesn’t remember you as the “actual bad guys”, just the cowardly bystanders & it damn sure doesn’t make any moves to protect anyone Black!
crazy how any broad conversation about racism somehow always circles back to centering whiteness. building off of the post above, if your knee-jerk reaction to Black people getting burned out of their houses is to get defensive for people who look like you, maybe that's something you should pick apart more.
are you defending (in this instance) Irish Catholics as a proxy to give yourself grace, to lump yourself in with "the good ones?"
what you're actually doing is absolving yourself of action and self-reflection. that discomfort you feel about white people perpetrating racism is asking you to do something to bring your actions into alignment with your values. instead, you're discarding this feeling by doing some feel-good mental gymnastics to ensure that there is a narrative that gives you an escape hatch, an assurance that there are good white people in the world (ones with whom you identify).
instead, let your discomfort guide you to do something real because if you're not actively standing up against fascism and its children, you're laying down to get stepped on. here are some real things to do:
donate to support the people who have been attacked, displaced and traumatized in racist attacks in Belfast:

don't have money to spare? find local organizers, join them, triage immediate needs in your community, then play the long game to move the Overton Window towards inclusive values. i do not want to hear any wailing about how nothing you do matters, no one will do anything, etcetera, etcetera; these are more mental gymnastics that allow you to give yourself permission to to do nothing

don't have time, money, or energy to spare? go to your local library and pick up a book to educate yourself and build empathy:

no access to a library? do the internal work and pick apart your own internal biases about race (i'll give a starter question for reflection: why did you feel compelled to respond to a post about violence against Black people and immigrant communities by centering white people?)
Self-reflection helps you challenge your assumptions and fill gaps in your understanding about racism. Here's how to do the work.
I’m so tired of the “why do people hate aspecs, they aren’t doing anything?” argument. I know that it is an attempt to support us, but it fails so spectacularly to understand aromanticism, asexuality, and any other aspec identity that it’s actively frustrating.
We are doing something. We’re rejecting allonormative ideals and that’s a massive thing to do. We’re actively fighting not just to help other aspecs, but to help everyone, because amatonormativity (and allonormativity as a whole) hurt everyone. Single people who want to find a partner but can’t also deserve to be able to exist.
There are so many issues with the expectation of marriage, including:
A single income isn't enough to get by anymore
Having a spouse is almost necessary under the current medical system
Society shames and pressures people who are single to get into relationships constantly
Rejecting allonormativity means fighting against these things that hurt everyone.
So, no, aces and aros and other aspecs aren't "doing nothing." We're doing quite a lot.
forever and in all ways

hello instagram artist. your challenge is to do a portrait study of a woman but you’re not allowed to stylize them so their eyes are really big and more cat eyed than the reference photo. You’re also not allowed to make their noses more of a button nose or their lips full and pouty or their faces heart shaped with no double chin. Also you have to draw a fat woman. one thats actually fat and not just slightly curvier than the kpop demon hunters body type. good luck
never not thinking abt this
fun fact - I took this screenshot back in 2018 so it's not that, the guy's name is Ross Draws and he's sucked for a lot longer than that
thank youuuuuu I’ve been seeing a lot of people lately confidently claim art is ai when it was very clearly drawn by a person.
yes, all the changes to the reference were intentional and deliberate and I think that’s important context here
there should be an emoji of a guy trying to strangle themself
to be honest im really sick of the fact that fat people are supposed to suck it up when other peoples worst fear is looking like them
Every so often I still see discourse about which demographics are "really queer" so just to clarify. In our society there is a pervasive expectation that everyone will:
Fall into one of 2 (out of many) sexual variations from birth
Identify as the gender associated with whichever of the 2 variations you're in
Conform with the norms and traditional expressions for that gender
Experience sexual and romantic attraction, exclusively towards the opposite gender
Enter into de jure monogamous relationships with partners you feel sexual and romantic attraction towards
Deviation from this list is frequently punished with social stigma, bigotry, denial of certain legal rights or protections, and often violation of bodily autonomy
If you are someone who deviates from this list in some way, you are one of us and there should be a place for you in the queer community. Up to you if you actually want to take that place, but if you choose to do so, none of us should be making you feel unwelcome for being "not really queer"
in what world is this a cleaner ui than what it was before

My local library had a days since James Patterson last published counter.

I need non-librarians to understand that this is not a celebratory counter. It's a plea for help.
