even as a bi person i struggle with intermittent sex repulsion for my own reasons. sex repulsion doesnt need to make you hateful or dismissive or disgusted by people who have sex

pjackk really is like jesus man, gone again after rising for a beautiful moment... starting pjackk catholicism where you going to pjackk mass and having the pjackk eucharist (computer chip for wafer and golden chalices of mustard gravy)

So...how much of the bad discourse surrounding Steven Universe is just because people were really hoping that the Gems would beat up Andy DeMayo in "Gem Harvest"?

[quasi-normalcy]

I was astonished to learn that there was controversy around this episode, because I felt like it was just kind of a normal children's cartoon about getting along with difficult relatives; and then I looked it up and learned that it had the extremely inauspicious timing of airing right after Trump's 2016 victory, and, yeah, okay, I can understand why a children's fantasy about reconciling with your obnoxious conservative relatives and getting them to accept your alternate family structure would play rather poorly at the time.

[quasi-normalcy]

I think that Rebecca Sugar probably assumed, like most of the world that wasn't my specific flavour of extremely online in 2016, that Clinton would crush Trump and that this episode would maybe help to smooth over divisions; but of course what ended up happening is that an episode about how you should be empathetic towards your bigoted relatives ended up airing just as your bigoted relatives were going around victoriously hate-criming people in the street.

[quasi-normalcy]

Watching it now, though, it ends up feeling wistful more than anything. Like, yeah, sure, it doesn't work like that, and we all know that now...But wouldn't it be nice if it did? It feels like a pleasant dream.

[livingauthorssociety]

Steven Universe is fundamentally a power fantasy—but the fantasy is being able to get through to people and heal things. The power is love instead of strength.

[lilly-kittyeyes]

"Like, yeah, sure, it doesn't work like that, and we all know that now...But wouldn't it be nice if it did?" Yeah....

[dovewithscales]

That's it exactly. It was a power fantasy for someone whose fantasy is having the power to create a non-zero sum game scenario where everyone can be happy and anyone can be redeemed.

Which, is that naive? *shrug* Maybe. But it would be nice. There are people in this world who actually can't be redeemed, and some problems I'd rather solve with a molotov cocktail. But maybe we can have a little more redemption and a little more healing than we have right now, and is it really a bad thing to get kids to aspire to that?

I think in Resident Evil 4 and other such video games where you absolutely just blast your way thru your problems, every two hundred kills or so, Leon should remark to himself, “I have shot so many people in the head today.” Then go right back to blasting. Anyway I just got a scope for my beefy rifle that lets me snipe people from a billion feet away. Used it to one shot a guy who never knew I was in his zip code. The satisfaction I felt watching his head explode was so intense that it felt unethical. Then I took money from that guy’s dead body and took it to the merchant to make my gun even better.

[andhumanslovedstories]

I just wonder sometimes if Leon is ever like “I wade through an ocean of blood so deep I will never surface again,” while he spin kicks a guy to death.

How do you know you're not Asexual? Maybe you just haven't met the right nobody.

[aroaceenjolras]

This "allosexuality" thing is just a phase. You just need to have really bad sex, and then maybe you'll change your mind.

[beachcoma]

being into some bullshit that nobody cares about and also is stupid really changes you

[teddyrocker]

best feeling in the world is when you draw something and you’re so proud of it you have to stop and stare at it every few minutes to remind yourself of its beauty like narcissus with his reflection in the pond

when you say something awkward and stupid in a social situation that probably no one will remember except you for the rest of time

[vampirebeverage]

I am fucking BEGGING transmascs (and everyone else) to not let the animosity of a VERY SMALL GROUP of very online transfems impact how you interact with transfems or think about transfems.

please, please, please remember that this "hating transmascs" and "kill all TMEs" bullshit is just a few edgy weirdos on the internet who enjoy saying inflammatory things for shock value.

transfems are not your enemy, and YES, you do actually need to unlearn transmisogyny. Not because you're transmasc, but because we live in a transmisogynistic society.

transfems are not a hivemind, there's no broader transfem consensus that transmascs are Evil Privileged Abusers, but the small group of people who think that way WANT you to believe that they are representative of trans women everywhere. they're super not. they really are just a handful of angsty people online looking for someone to pick on.

all trans people have more commonalities than differences. there aren't two distinct species of trans people from two different planets, there are just trans people with a wide diversity of experiences and walks of life. we are all affected by the same systems of oppression.

find community and mutual support with transfems. build solidarity and have conversations about how we can help each other. the only way we all get through this shit is together.

[wholeheartedsuggestions]

no one is coming to save yo- wrong!! everyone who has ever shown you love and/or care is saving you a little bit.

[richerandmorepossible]

no one is comi - wrong!! someone always comes! the uber driver came to take me to my new apartment. my kindergarten teachers came to teach me how to count and read. all the people who researched, wrote and edited my favourite books came to share a new way of thinking about the world. enough of this individualist bullshit, someone always comes. fred rogers was right, we were all loved into being. someone always comes.

[pangur-and-grim]
