Whatttt is with the tendency of Tumblr users to seek absolution from every single person who offhandedly posts about disagreeing with something they do

[setulose]

I say this not unkindly, but firmly: to function as a member of a social species, you have to get comfortable with the idea that not everyone will like you

Annoying: Being completely neutral on a ship based on its presentation in canon and evolving to dislike it just because people will not shut the fuck up about it and you just think it's kind of mid. Mildly Infuriating: Disliking a ship because you think both characters involved get better arcs/character development from being with different characters, but the ship with the lesser writing is either canon/more popular and the frustration is born of no one seeing your superior vision. Extremely Frustrating: Disliking a ship because it legitimately makes you uncomfortable for one reason or another--and while you don't really want to yuck other peoples' yums, you do still just fucking hate seeing it everywhere. Sometimes this discomfort is capable of being vocalized based on your own experiences or preferences, other times it is impossible because it is simply A Bad Vibe--and that's why describing it as an ick or a squick is all the more frustrating. Deep-Seated Loathing of a Thousand Suns: A ship that, by all accounts, is one of the archetypes you really love and ship a lot of other ships that are, superficially, like this ship--however, because its writing in canon is so absolutely terrible it does a disservice to both characters involved and its fans have no reading comprehension, so it is, instead, an affront to your interests and you have at least 20 video essays and 40 100k word tumblr essays about why this ship sucks and you will not shut the fuck up about it. If anyone even breathes the suggestion of this ship in your direction you will just mcfucking lose it.

I am begging people to please learn anything about religions that aren't Catholicism before engaging in online discourse about fictional religions

[comtesseadaar]

Before you're allowed to participate in online religion discourse you have to give me an essay about the differences between Judaism and Christianity that never uses the terms "Jesus" or "Messiah" and then also be able to tell me the difference between Apocalyptic and Cyclical Theology

and also I'll need you to explain the Bhavacakra

I would actually go as far as to say that MOST abuse is unintentional. I think most people will go through their lives without ever experiencing intentional abuse. People are abusive because they're selfish, because they're stressed, because they care more about what society thinks they should do than the impacts of their actions on their children and partners, because they think what they're doing is correct, because they've made it make sense in their own heads, because they think they can fix their victims, they think they can fix their relationships, they think they can stop you from leaving, they think they can make you a better partner to them, they think that means you need to do what they want. We've sort of constructed mental illness in a way that doing this shit to other people counts as a form of mental illness because it is anti social behavior in the literal sense— it is behavior that causes social harm.

I don't say any of this to excuse it. I think everyone needs to be more aware of this because if you think abuse has to be intentional you will never realize you are capable of abusive behavior. You will never realize you are being shitty to the people you love, because YOU know what you mean, YOU know you don't mean any harm. But you're doing harm. You need to pay attention to the impact you have on other people, and you need to do it all the time, Especially when you feel least capable of doing so. Sorry! You live in a society. Get your head out of your ass.

I hate when customers at work say my name. I get I'm wearing a name tag that has my name printed on it in big letters but every time someone says my name I'm like. Woah, woah, I don't know you like that. Who the fuck are you. Do I know you??? Why aren't you wearing a name tag so I know what your name is???

[clonehub]

I hate you epitome of innocence being represented with blonde hair I hate you lightness representing goodness I hate you "angelic features" automatically being read as blonde hair and blue eyed with pale skin I hate you whiteness as the default for morality I HATE YOU I HATE YOU

[clonehub]

Guess who's being the most annoying on this post

[clonehub]

this post isnt about blondes and how its so unfair to them that theyre always viewed as good healthy holy morally upright outstanding people no matter what this post is about racism its about colorism its about white supremacy making people with dark features and skin literally feel evil. this is not about your stupid disney princesses or achilles or your fave anime boys being allowed to be unhinged feral shitty awful people and this sure as hell is not an opportunity for blonde people themselves to show their entire pasty flat asses and beg praise for "breaking the stereotype" by being shitty unhinged people. fandom people you are 192% of the problem. white people in general you are 1,000% the origin of the problem. this site is so unbearably white my GOD

why is there an upgrade button on gmail. why does twitter want me to scan my palm to get into my account. why is google a chatbot. why does the transit app make a transit app wrapped for me. why does youtube keep shoving its infinitely scrollable shortform content down my throat. why do free trials want my credit card number. why are most scholarship websites just data brokers. how do i make capitalone stop sending me mail. why is my school making its own special chat gpt powered chatbot. why is every third video on instagram an undisclosed ad. why is nothing online real anymore. why is everything so FUCKING STUPID

i love the part of making art where you feel like you need to go missing

[morganaspendragonss]

will you guys cancel me if i say that queer tragedy has a place in the creative arts and shouldn’t immediately be dismissed as bury your gays

[rubynye]

adding @glorious-spoon 's astute tags:

#bury your gays and women in refrigerators and the black guy dies first are all about treating marginalized people like props#to further the story of the (white straight male) protagonist#that's not the same thing as a tragedy! some stories are tragedies! whose story has weight and meaning - that's the question
