thougts

generally just my opinions on things / not really a discourse account anymore / 16 / she.her / maybe bisexual

[dogethoughts]

my opinions/introduction

hey fucknuts my name is quela, im a 13 year old cis girl and i looove drama/discourse lmao

some of my friends in this community are @hewwo-truwuscum and @samuelthethot and theyre both Cool Dudes

my opinions are:

1. you can only be trans if you experience some dysphoria at some point in your life 2. just bc you dont want to date a trans person That Doesn’t Mean You’re Transphobic 3. mogai shit is stupid and makes the lgbt community look like a joke 4. pedophiles are disgusting UNLESS they are actively seeking out/getting help and DO NOT SUPPORT PEDOPHILIA. 5. he/him lesbians arent,,, real?????? He/Him is for MALE. PEOPLE. IT IS FOR MEN. a lesbian is a woman who loves women how hard is it for u people jesus fuck 6. im neutral on the ace discourse 7. non binary (agender, genderfluid maybe) are valid as long as you experience a form of dysphoria 8. ddlg and ddlb is pretty gross but im fine with someone having like, a daddy kink i guess idfk 9. drag,, isnt,,,, transphobic,, what th,e, f,,uc k,, 10. cringe culture isnt good imo but you shouldnt use that as an excuse to not accept criticism about something you like/something youve made 11. genderbends arent transphobic. shutt the fuck up w/ that shit i guess thats all? these might change honestly but im a pretty stubborn person lmao

[dogethoughts]

heres some…. fucking… updates on my opinions fuckers… also im a 14 year old now >8) im an ace exclusionist

i only believe in agender as a nonbinary gender mogai doesnt only make the lgbt community look like a joke, but also endangers young lgbt people into taking on identities that they actually arent and can make the questioning period last longer than it has to. it can also make young cishet people who have been convinced into thinking that being cis/het inherently makes you a ba d person into identifying as something they arent either.

[dogethoughts]

aight I’m 16 now let’s seeeee I don’t give a shit about most stuff anymore but some opinions I feel strongly about are that pansexual is a dangerous biphobic label that has erased decades of bisexual history, cishet aces arent lgbt, he/him lesbians are ehhhhhh, neopronouns and shit don’t matter I’ll respect you whateva uhhhh that’s it rlly I still think dysphoria is required for trans people to medically transition but if you’re going to just socially transition then idgaf live your life bro also I’m bisexual LOL

[bloglikeanegyptian]

hearing officials and public figures criticize biden openly on talk shows and seeing newspaper headlines sharply decry israel killing aid workers is making me feel kind of crazy. like it could've been like this the whole time. before 40,000 palestinians were killed and the infrastructure of gaza destroyed. it could've been like this when people gathered their children in plastic bags at al-ahli hospital, when a poet and his family were assassinated for a joke, when journalists buried their families on air, when children were targeted by drones on camera, when a little boy holding his grandmother's hand in one hand and a white flag in another watched her get shot and die in front of him, when a cameraman was left to bleed out with a live counter for hours while his rescuers were shot, when patients were bulldozed in their tents in the courtyard of a hospital, when four babies were left die and decompose alone in their hospital beds, when six year old hind rajab was crying for help trapped in a car with the corpses of her family on the phone with the red crescent for hours until she and the rescuers sent to get her were killed too.

[dogethoughts]

Why does someone have to have dysphoria? Why can't they just patiently wait to change?

i have no idea what this ask means i am not a transmed anymore and i stay out of trans discourse as a cis person

[stimman4000]

worst trend of 2020 is instagram influencers with a large audience starting an onlyfans for bikini pics or whatever, making 10-20k their first week, and then posting about how easy it is to an audience that includes tens of thousands of young girls, who are going to start one at 18, end up having to do much more hardcore stuff to make any money, still not make nearly as much as those people do because they aren’t famous to begin with, and then be stuck with nudes of them online for the rest of their lives. i’m not anti sex work but people talking about it like it’s a quick and easy way to make money with no negative impact on you at all is... deeply irresponsible

[stimman4000]

like i know several people, both online and irl, who’ve done this and quit because they had their pictures sent to parents/friends, felt pressured to do things they were uncomfortable with, found themselves in bad situations with other models/ “photographers”, or were worn out and emotionally exhausted by being seen as a sex object/product instead of a person-all for 300-400 dollars overall. if it’s something you’re considering please be aware it’s not how these people portray it

[how-to-tucute]

Long time no see. This blog has been dead for a very long time but don't get your hopes up, I have no plans to resurrect it.

I have just returned to tumblr fully for the first time in over a year to find that there's recent asks begging for the blog to come back, asking where we've been, etc. I can't speak for the other mods, I havent spoken to them in a very long time and none of them are even assigned as admins to this blog anymore, but I can speak for myself.

I never posted here much and tried to remain as neutral as possible when I did because even then I didn't agree with many of the things being posted here, the hostile nature of this blog, and the drama that spawned from it. Not that I was any sort of saint, I was still a mod on this blog, reblogged false information (some of which I even knew was false or misleading but knew that it would get people riled up and that people wanted to see it), and fellow supporter the other mods and defended them when they did something shitty.

I eventually ended up leaving the transmed and anti-SJW community because I accidentally deleted my old discourse blog (which had, at the time of deletion, over 4000 followers that I constantly spewed more shitty opinions and drama and bad information to) and when I remade it I barely got more than 200 after months which discouraged me. I jumped ship after the NSFW ban, thank fuck for that because it gave me a taste of the real world away this echo chamber of a community and helped me pull my head out of my ass.

Now I log in and I see tons of notifications showing me that incredibly toxic, ill informed, and all around nasty posts from this blog are still being reblogged daily. Just today there were 12 and one some days there are more than 30.

I don't think it takes a genius at this point to realize that I am appaled and disgusted by the stuff that was on this blog, even the posts typed out by my own two hands.

This blog built up an incredibly toxic community that devolved into redfem/TERF territory (and this is not my just using buzzwords, this was a label literally claimed by some of the mods on this blog and many of the folks that interacted with it). Scrolling through some of the old posts here I saw MANY trans folks, and yes even the dysphoric ones this community claims to care so much about, being harassed, mocked, invalidated, and misgendered simply because their opinion was different. I saw witchhunts and drama and mocking of peoples appearances and content from literal terfs being reblogged. There was even unironic uses of the word "troon", "tranny", etc. by mods and anons used to describe trans folks as a whole and even to mock individuals.

That said, you may notice that these posts and all others are gone. I found a script to delete all blog posts at once and I did just that. I know that these posts still exist as archives on other people's blogs as thats just how the site works, however I feel more comfortable knowing that they won't be left available here under the blog that I now have sole control over.

I don't care at all if people dislike me for this, think I'm an SJW or tucute or whatever else now (which I guess is sort of true tbh though I have left any and all discourse and drama in my past). I dont feel comfortable with those sorts of posts being up and available to continue the spread of misinformation, hate, harassment, and so on.

I have absolutely no ill will towards the other mods btw. If they are anything like me then they were well meaning people that got themselves wrapped up in a community that thrives on propaganda and blame shifting. Maybe they were lured in by the prospect of a community and friends. Maybe they, like me, subconciously felt that as minorities (as all of them were) the best way to gain acceptance from non-minorities was to be more palatable to them and be the "good" type of trans person or gay person or POC person or whatever else. Who even knows? Regardless, I know that at least a few of them have since moved entirely away from this ideology and put it in their past. I hope that them and the others are doing well. This post is getting long so I'll explain my own reasoning in another post.

I shall close this post by asking this: Do you think it would be better to be nonconfrontational, to focus only on yourself and your own identity, accept and support everyone knowing that there may be a chance some bad eggs will slip in and be supported too? Or would it be better to argue for your postion and call out others that don't fit within your margins knowing that some of the people you claim to be fighting for will be hurt?

Almost 200 people were murdered in Armenia in 3 days and y'all are still ignoring us.

This is not a war, this is a massacre Azerbaijan and Turkey are committing against the Armenian people.

Turkey's president literally admitted that he wants to finish what his ancestors started. He wants to commit another genocide, and this time he wants to kill us all.

Silence is violence

[fuck-you-hypocrites]

Update: it's been over a month. 2 thousand people were murdered so far. Please, I'm so scared, just reblog this. I'm not asking for a lot, if you can't donate that's fine, just share this.

[martian-martian-martian]

If anyone knows where TO donate please interact?!

[fuck-you-hypocrites]

If you're willing to donate, here is the link:

Established in 1994 in Los Angeles, California, Armenia Fund, Inc. is a 501(c)(3) tax-exempt, non-governmental, non-political corporation.

@rock-and-roll-and-rats Thank you so much, I'm so grateful

[cowardly-bisexual]

no offense but i think telling people who are trying to figure out their sexual orientation to “really think about it” and “analyse their feelings” is unhelpful and unhealthy

when i was trying to figure out if it was gay or bi or asexual or what sitting on the internet and obsessing over my feelings didn’t help me at all, it just drove me crazy

i needed to go out there, fall in love, experience things, hook up with people, give myself time. sitting at home and trying to figure out if what i felt for men/women/whoever is sexual attraction was useless. taking off the pressure to find my label and letting myself just be was so much more liberating and allowed me to actually experience things that made realising i was bi extremely easy.

figuring out your sexual orientation shouldn’t be this stressful intellectual puzzle, it should be a case of you living your life and then going from there

and when i say give yourself time i don’t mean like two months. some people don’t start experiencing falling for people and dating and having sex until they’re in their twenties. some people come out in their thirties or later. this shit takes time. be kind to yourself. don’t let internet checklists ruin your mental health. live your life and you’ll figure it out when the time is right.

[bookofjudith]

When I visited the United States Holocaust Museum for the first time, I was struck deeply by one wall with absolutely nothing on it, except for this quote: 

“Who, after all, speaks today of the annihilation of the Armenians?”

Hitler often used it to cite how history would forget about his “final solution”, as they didn’t remember the Armenian genocide, did they? 

My family is in America for the sole reason that the first Armenian genocide drove them out. My grandmother knows nothing of what happened to her cousins and aunts and uncles, and still, to this day, the Armenian genocide is not recognized by Turkey. 

It’s happening again. The Azerbaijan and Armenian conflict over Artsakh, an area that Azerbaijan claims is theirs, but is inhabited heavily by Armenians, has been restarted, and the people living there are in serious danger, as Turkey is now lending their military aid to Azerbaijan as well, while the rest of the world is turned the other way. 

I know we’re all so fatigued from the shitshow that has been 2020, and how difficult it can be to comprehend yet another tragedy, but if you have a moment, please just educate yourself on what’s happening in Armenia and Artsakh, educate a friend, and take a look at the some of the resources I’ll link below, I would be so grateful. Don’t let history annihilate my people again.

what is Artsakh?

My best friend is Armenian. I would not be able to live with myself to absentmindedly watch her go through the same thing her parents and grandparents went through.

[emeraldmercury]

Now that Biden has won, if you people think America is saved and justice is there, and keep dead silent about the issues you have been screaming about for so long I will have NO RESPECT FOR YOU.

You should be screaming about kids in cages whether red or blue is there

You should be screaming about sexism whether red or blue is there

You should be screaming about police brutality whether red or blue is there

These issues are not going to go away. Biden and Harris will perpetuate them in full force and the media will excuse them. And then... you will be silent.

If I hear ANY of you say that this is over, or worse, try to justify the same things you hated under Trump, it proves it -

You never cared about minorities or people in general. You just wanted to hate Trump.

Notes from a poll worker

Hey Tumbls, are you voting in person? Here’s some info for you

1) If you are in line before the polls close, even if it’s 6:59 and polls close at 7:00, you have the right to vote. Don’t let them turn you away.

2) Electioneering within 25 feet of your polling place isn’t permitted. Don’t wear candidate or party merch. It is considered electioneering and you may be asked to leave and come back in a different change of clothes.

3) If someone is pressuring you to vote a certain way within 25 feet of a polling place, tell the poll workers. THAT’S ILLEGAL.

3) If someone is intimidating you or trying to drive you away from the polls, tell the poll workers. THAT’S ILLEGAL.

4) If you forgot your ID and you’re in a state that requires it, ask for a provisional ballot. You can still vote, even without the ID. Once your provisional ballot is cast, you can go home and grab your ID to show them, bypassing the line and going straight to the managing table.

(Disclaimer: I am a poll worker in MO, which has some of the stricter election laws in the country. Some laws may vary depending on region.)

DON’T LET YOUR VOICE GO UNHEARD. VOTE VOTE VOTE!

TL;DR

“keeper’s of the law” is historical term for jewish people and inadvertently this sign can be used by anti-semites, this was a oversight by the church and they asking for you to not share those pics and use that phrase with that wording anymore

Non-Americans who escalate inter-nationality teasing immediately to “school shootings and trump” stop challenge 

[legsdemandias]

American’s Teasing England: Tea in the shower, u have a queen, other relatively benign stereotypes 

American’s Teasing Canada: u have moose and beavers, maple syrup u like it

American’s Teasing Australia: kangaroos and koalas, it’s hot there, summer time, toilets flush backward

Canada, England, and Australia retaliating from that teasing: school shootings, kill a child today hm? your police murder you, you’re gonna die from a preventable disease, everyone in the country is hopelessly poor and dying, everyone’s in debt, you can’t even afford to die. THAT’ll teach u to tease us about having ANIMALS in our country! 

[legsdemandias]

I mean, sure, it’s all fun and games to you. But I’ve had friends legitimately try to kill themselves just thinking about a future in this country. I have co-workers who cried on the first day of school because they were scared of dying. While I was working at a school there were three school shooting threats in 4 weeks. I had friends break out into tears after the massacre in 2018 talking about it in class, terrified that they were going to die while working–or watch students die. 

My high school history teacher was shot in the back on campus. Everyone here knows someone who’s been affected by gun violence. Everyone knows someone who’s been affected by healthcare, or lack thereof. Everyone knows someone whose life has been ruined by college debt. 

The day in, day out nightmare of living in America is not a fucking “GOTCHA” for when you’re trying to tease America. Why is this so hard to comprehend. 

[legsdemandias]

Non-Americans: Ugh americans are so entitled and mean and rude

Also Non-Americans: Oh you’re gonna make fun of me drinking tea? Well you’re gonna be violently murdered and then you’ll go into thousands upon thousands of dollars in debt from the act lol this is an equivalent comparison and doesn’t make me look like the asshole in the situation at all!! Americans are soooo rude!

[miyotesse]

Any examples of what we can tease you about then? Any universal Americanisms that cause the right amount of offense without stepping over the line?

[legsdemandias]

Imperial system

Shoes on in house

Smiling too much

High school football

Opossums, raccoons, deer, etc.

Carpet (I’ve heard other countries aren’t as obsessed with carpet as Americans)

Sales tax (how much will this cost? Nobody knows!)

Roadside tourist attractions (world’s biggest ball of yarn etc)

“it’s only a 6 hour drive”

Buying tea in a gallon jug

Being in the prairie states and there literally being nothing in any direction for miles not even trees

Tornadoes anything to do with tornado culture

Waffle house

The mere concept of semi trucks / 18 wheelers

Every state except California claiming they have the weirdest weather

[kawree]

People microwave their tea instead of boiling it

The white people half-jog-and-wave combo when crossing the street

Endless ads for pharmaceuticals

how about not having our laundry machines in any sensible places? mine’s in the fucking basement, so all of us have to haul our laundry up and down a flight of stairs. this is extremely common

[rizaoftheowls]

The difficulty is that all our Stupid Nonsense is so regional. For example, the appropriate wildlife joke here in the Northeast is bears. But my family in Florida has had to shoo alligators out of the backyard like a common nuisance.

That’s because your country is 50 small countries in a trenchcoat

Yes! See! That’s funny! “50 small countries in a trenchcoat.” That’s hysterical!

School shootings and systemic racism aren’t. Go get good material.

To the list of things to make fun of Americans for:

Ten gallon cowboy hats are considered formal wear in Texas

[canibecandid]

Things to make fun of Americans for, Texas Edition:

- can’t drive

- sheer irreverence for hurricanes (hurricane parties)

- Homecoming Mums

- never ending road construction

- the high probability of pulling up to a four way stop and only having one car

- Houston vs Dallas vs Austin

- anything to do with Texas sports (the Spurs, Stars, Texans, and Cowboys all have notable and great players but can’t win shit for shit)

- too big???

- people treat moving to a different city like moving to a different country

[capitalism-is-a-disease]

Florida:

Walmart in every corner.

Soup air

Capitol was chosen because it was right in between the first two capitals but it’s really boring and kinda gross. 0/10. Not capital matrerial.

ALLIGATORS. I’ve found them in my swimming pool. I live in the middle of the city.

To many snakes.

Three or more churches on every street.

Camo is considered acceptable to wear.

Dressing like a cowboy unironically

Redoing all the repairs you have made to your house every year or two because the humidity already ruined it.

No one cares about hurricanes. We hardly bother to board up anymore unless it’s a category four or higher. Last year I was invited to a hurricane sleep over where we all decided to talk about how we’d die.

Florida men are real and they are everywhere.

Florida women are just as bad.

Someone told me no where else had Publix which is a tragedy cause they have good pay and employee benefits. I’d suggest it for a first job if you live someone that has them.

Did I mention the alligators??? We can’t swim anywhere unless we’re ready to run from a gator.

So many mosquitos. The air is 50% water and 50% mosquito.

Our capital building is shaped like a penis.

Miami as a whole.

The people here fear nothing. I watched a kid at my school pick a snake up out of a puddle and chuck it so we could get to class.

Most people don’t repair their roofs, even if they have the funds, instead they just put up tarps.

We have our own version of Bigfoot: The Skunk Ape.

[infinitimatti]

just a quick note- no trans person has ever said “did you just assume my gender.” trans people are very aware of how their gender and physical appearance differ and that visually one might assume that they are a man/woman when they are actually not. that’s kind of the whole idea of gender dysphoria. 

[infinitimatti]

and also you’ve beaten your “attack helicopter” joke into the fucking ground. cut that shit out.

[infinitimatti]

i wanted to add one more thing to this post that other people have pointed out: i know its an awkward question, but a lot of trans people are going to be 100% fine with you asking what their gender is, or with calmly correcting you if you get it wrong. and if they’re not, then they’re way more likely to keep it to themselves than get visibly angry with someone. this idea that trans people just go apeshit when people misgender them accidentally/when first meeting them is a complete fabrication for a stupid joke and that’s why i despise it so much. 

[petefoxshend-deactivated2018062]

I can’t afford to get visibly angry about people misgendering me because that puts me in danger of getting harmed. once a cis person finds out my gender, one of two things will happen: they either accept me to various degrees, or they reject me and potentially escalate the situation. politeness is the only way I can decrease the risk of the latter.

the “DID YOU ASSUME MY GENDER?!” trope only serves to make trans people look ridiculous/unreasonable in the eyes of cis people, and places in their minds preconceptions about us that makes it harder, ultimately, for us to come out safely. if all they know about trans people are shitty jokes, then we as a people become those jokes to them.

[gaylor-moon]

yeah cis people, seeing as you’re literally the only people that make these jokes I’m gonna need you to reblog this
