[effemimaniac]

not very good at asking for things that I want

[effemimaniac]

"the worst they could say is no" not even true and also have you considered that kind of sucks

[honeydewcorporation]

"Thoughts on women?" Yeah pretty much constantly

[gothhabiba]

it's very clear from some communists' visions of future city-planning that they expect disabled people to just shut up and die, lmao

[gothhabiba]

some disabled people need door-to-door transportation. public transportation will never work for everyone, no matter how much you emphasise that it is "accessible" to some

if any part of your plan involves disabled people needing to "request" exceptions or "prove" that they are an exception or be questioned or tested or navigate any level of bureaucracy to become a Certified Exception, some people are going to be denied things they need & some of them are going to die

If you don’t mind me adding:

3. Some folks dream of the perfect commune where everyone contributes - specifically with labor. If a disabled person not contributing labor isn’t welcome in your community, you are just repackaging the capitalist “labor = worth” mindset

me sexting: i feel like something bad is going to happen to me. i feel like something bad has happened. it hasn't reached me yet but it's on its way.

Me rambling to you all about how since Community episode 21st Century Romanticism (S2E15) was actually written by a gay woman, the part about Annie maybe being a lesbian shouldn’t be viewed as surface level and may actually be grounded in some truth, and how if the show had actually delved deeper and not played it off as a joke Annie could (and would have been) canon lesbian, but because of either the plot device of JeffAnnie or simply a lack of queer people in the writers room we did not get this.

just saw someone reviewing the erin hunter books like, ‘they should publish the whole series at once, i don’t want to wait a whole year to read it’. like babe i hate to break it to you but,,,, go touch some grass and think about your relationship with consumerism okay, because it’s gotten really weird on you

[faelanvance]

I’ve heard these kinds of sentiments in regards to novels, as well as readers outright refusing to read fantasy series debuts because “they fear committing to something unfinished” (like refusing to read an incomplete fanfic on AO3…) in case the author dies, or isn’t able/doesn’t complete the work. The GRRM effect, if you will.

Regardless of how people feel towards the authors personally, I will continue to bleat, til the day I die, artists do not owe an audience anything. They are not in debt to you. They don’t owe their works to their readers, no exceptions, there is no “earned/lost trust” or “unspoken contracts.” Capitalism has got people treating artists and entertainers as though they should hop on their bicycles like a chained bear, the moment the audience cracks its whip.

[brynwrites]

There’s also this fun aspect of capitalism where your favorite (usually marginalized) author doesn’t get another book contract or have the rest of the series picked up or have the money to keep investing their time in that project because you refused to buy the thing until it was finished.

Not only do creators not owe their audience anything, but those who really truly want to give these things to their audience are directly prevented from doing so by this exact mentality!

[aristoteliancomplacency]

Very much blaming Netflix et al. For this one.

[astrodael]

the idea that your friends won't like you if you're too weird is wrong for example one time I told a friend whenever I was losing my mind I laid down on the floor under my desk and stared at it until I was better and next time she visited me she taped a bag of salami snacks to the underside of my desk with a message saying "going insane all by yourself, handsome?" which I only saw months later when I had a breakdown. that's friendship.
