when someone posts an absolute dogshit, media literacy-lacking take and they turn off the comments
you know you're being stupid and/or an asshole
I feel like all I've been doing the past few days is yelling on main about things but honestly bare with me I'm irritated rn😭
Stop posting in ship tags how much you hate a ship, I don't care what "gotcha" you have for why it's a bad ship, I do not care stop fucking doing it.
Hot take (which is insane to me)
It bothers me so much when ppl make Dennis trans JUST to get him pregnant, wear girly clothes, have Robby like his chest, etc. it’s so obvious when the writer isn’t trans with how they talk about it.
There’s nothing wrong with trans people dressing any way they want or being comfortable in their body but it’s so easy to tell when it’s a cis girl or a non trans person that just wants to be included.
As a trans guy,I love the idea of Dennis being trans. I think it makes great sense for him and it can be a beautiful think to see/write about. But constantly talking about his curves, his tits, and other parts that almost no trans person really likes to be attended to is an immediate red flag. Just write Robby with a woman if you want something like that so bad.

flattening any conflict that Robby has with a woman to misogynistic assholery is missing about 95% of the nuance. first of fucking all, most of the characters on this cast are women. sometimes he's not an ass because it's a woman, sometimes it just happens to be a fucking woman.
there's some bias in the way he treats Baran, but again, not the main focus. Baran is a direct threat to Robby, on a professional and personal level. Administration is clearly trying to push him out, backing him into a corner, disrespecting him. much of this isn't Baran's fault, but she's the face of it, and part of it. professionally, he's fucking pissed for a few reasons, and has every right to be— not that he's handling it well.
on a personal level, Robby is vulnerable and insecure. Baran is laughing with Dana, conversing easy with Jack, and even Dennis is saying "she seems cool!" none of this is bad, but to Robby, it's devastating. he's not in a stable state, and his entire support system seems to agree that yes, we like the person who's supposed to take robby's place.
now, they don't mean it as a personal attack, and they don't mean it in a way that means they hate Robby or want her as replacement forever, but Robby is in crisis. everything about Baran is unintentionally reinforcing on both a professional and personal level that he is not needed, and he is a failure. and since he struggles with toxic masculinity and has been burying everything for so long, his emotions of hurt come out as anger instead.
Robby was starry-eyed after Baran saved that little boy's life, and told her to "take the win" before the alarming fall to undermining her and saying this department will fall to shit with her. he doesn't even necessarily hate baran, but she represents everything he's afraid of. that the department won't fall to shit. that they don't need him. that they probably don't even want him, wouldn't choose him. he's a cornered dog, and he's biting. when he insists people need him, it's another facet of his subtle begging for reassurance. (please tell me you need me.)
I've talked about the Robby and Samira dynamic at length, but it's not just because he's somehow an evil racist misogynist that he's harder on her. he sees himself in her, and since he hates himself so much, that's not a good thing. he does also believe in her, but is shit at showing it. he doesn't want her to turn into him. etc etc I could go on.
I saw someone say "it is misogyny. he would've NEVER yelled at a man like that." we are not watching the same show. frank langdon got yelled at three different times in season 1, one of those taking place before Robby knew about his addiction, and in front of others.
when you say Robby would give a white man so much more leeway, you're really just thinking of Dennis. he doesn't like ogilvie, either. "ogilvie, put your hand down." "keep your fucking mouth shut." neither of those are good mentorship or leadership moments, and he clearly favors Joy.
this isn't excusing his actions, but the point is that he's being a dick to EVERYONE. that is the WHOLE fucking point I fear. like. the point is to show the deterioration of Robby. that is. the point.
while it's important to call out bias, when it's every take I see, (and usually not a nuanced take in that discussion either, mostly just how Robby is the devil from the bible and he puts "hating women" on his calendar every day), it is so fucking tiring. you are flattening this fucking show. robby's flaws are a lot more complex and nuanced and compelling. yes, they are flaws, but no, he's not evil.
ok I haven't seen anybody (so far) point out the interaction with Shark and Whitaker beyond him making eyes...
that guy was so rude to him, like straight-up dickish. whitaker looked like it was common, though, which makes me wonder if this is an ex or a situationship or???
WHO ARE YOU AND WHAT ARE YOU DOING
I'm probably about to piss a lot of people off, either just because they feel called out or just because I'm being a little aggressive about it.
Yes, I do judge when people write a male character as trans in fanfic and only make them as the bottom, the twink, the sub, etc. I do judge when people only write them as trans to include feminine terms for genitalia and have them enjoy sexual, feminine things. Because what that tells me is you don't see trans men any other way, that they are only there to be a woman-adjacent fetish for you to enact.
This is not to say that people who do fit this type/sexual interests are bad or wrong. I am not going to police anyone's identity and preferences. But when it seems like 90% of transmale characters in fanfic are headcanoned as such to basically make them as close to a woman without just straight up gender-bending, it gets on my nerves.
I've seen it in Hucklerobby, in Sterek, in Hannigram, in all these other ships, and it's like if I don't TURN OFF THE TAG, then the fics are filled with this feminization and fetish content.
It's rarely ever the bigger, stronger, top character that's made trans. And it's like he's only there so he can fuck the trans male character.
I mean for fuck's sake I came across a fic where straight up TRANSPHOBIA was used as a kink in a MLM fic. Be SO fucking for real.
If you're curious about my qualifications, I am a trans man, I don't fit this stereotype, and I've witnessed it e-fucking-nough.
Trans men are men. We are not fetishes for your entertainment that you can use smut of to ignore the shitty things we go through in the real world.
I need y’all to realize that DIRECTING an episode does not equal WRITING an episode. I love that Shawn Hatosy directed Ep. 9 but people are crediting him on the written interactions between characters that SHOULD actually be credited to Cynthia Adarkwa, a Ghanaian American woman. Who wrote episode 9. And the interactions you’re all loving and feeling devastated over.
I think Shawn did an amazing job and helped pull great performances out of the actors, but once again, those performances and dialogues were created and written by Cynthia Adarkwa and the writing team.
Credit where credit is due.
Funds needed to support newborn baby!
Hello friends, I'm Sahar! Lia & I are friends of the Ashours & Shehabs, and we'll be helping them run this campaign. Both families have had
I'd like to ask you guys to give some support to the shared campaign of @amal-ashour-new and @danashehab's families. Amal recently gave birth to her baby, and as we approach the new year I would love to see if we could help her make sure her baby is as safe and comfortable as possible through the winter.
But of course, it's not just the baby. This fundraiser supports the food/medical/shelter needs of a dozen people. Please consider making a donation if you can - small amounts will add up and make a meaningful difference in these people's quality of life.
Please donate if you are able, it would be a big help if you did 🙏
Please help us. These are very harsh conditions; the winter is severe and the rain floods the tent every day. Your help means life to us
🔴A voice from Gaza: “Enter the caravans. The piece of cloth called a tent does not protect us from the cold of winter or the heat of summer.” Talk about us and support us, even if only by sharing.
Bad weather raises fears of flooding and further hardship for displaced Palestinians living in fragile, overcrowded shelters - Anadolu Ajans
Our tents were destroyed and became tattered pieces of cloth, unfit for anything.
I urge everyone to donate and participate; I desperately need your help now.
Every donation makes a difference in my life
I am now addressing the donor: When you donate, my friend, I want to tell you that with your donation we will buy
Winter clothes to protect us from the harsh winter cold
We will buy a tent to protect us from the heavy rain.
We will buy food so that you can survive.
I will buy milk and diapers for my daughter Mina, who is not yet a month old.
So please donate as much as you can, because your donation will save what's left of my family. Don't wait, my friend. I swear to you that my family and my sister Shihab's family deserve a donation or to live in safety.

Having BlueSky instead of Twitter (I know it's X, idgaf) can be both extremely freeing and extremely limiting.
Freeing in the sense that I don't have to see the intense alt-right bullshit that Twitter spews out despite my attempts to make my algorithm as blue as possible. I don't have to be on a platform that the Muskrat owns and potentially give him money. My feed has been so much less stressful after deleting that app and my account. Why would I get it back when I'm almost never going to use it?
Limiting in that I am often extremely out of the loop on situations. "This celebrity is being canceled for what they said." Oh, where can I find that? "Check their twitter" WELL I FUCKING CAN'T, SO NOW WHAT?
Or even if I dont need to check their Twitter, it's on somebody else's. I try and look it up on TikTok or Instagram, or even here, but all I get is shit about them but not the specific thing I'm looking for.
Like Noah Wyle is a raging zionist??? I read an article about how he signed a letter defending the state of Israel (or something) but then people were saying he was liking pro-palestine posts? But then it's that he and his wife went to a convention or dinner or whatever in support of Israel and the IDF? Which one is it?
"Check Twitter"
NO! WHY IS THAT THE MAIN SOURCE OF INFO FOR TRYING TO FIGURE OUT IF SOMEONE'S A CRAPPY PERSON??
Or if I want to see the non-censored version of someone's artwork, it's on Twitter. I'm not gonna sign back into my account and log out again just to see some ass.
