Being a notorious robotlover in the current state of "AI" is the worst. I love robots discovering how they process their feelings in fiction, but when a chatbot pretends it knows how to love it feels like an insult to the craft

People still tend to lump JK Rowling in with the category of ~problematic artists~ and I need everyone to understand that is not the problem with her. She is not comparable to anyone who wrote a piece of fiction you hate, or someone who made rude comments in 2015 and has since learned better.

She is far more like Elon Musk. She is a radicalized person with an extreme amount of social and financial power, and for YEARS she has been using that power to try to influence her government into hurting vulnerable people, on purpose. And she has succeeded. THAT is the problem with her, and THAT is why spending money on her books is so dangerous, not because her books aged badly.

Critiquing her work is fine, of course (I personally was never a fan so I really don’t care) but you NEED to understand that fiction is not the main issue here. And I truly think acting like she’s the same as the rest of any giant list of ~problematic creators of the week~ waters down how dangerous she is.

i have to reblog this again because i go insane when people act like the problem with her is "its cringe for adults to like kids media" or like "the books sucked anyways" like those are completely irrelevant and try to shift the blame and focus from the active harm. even the fact the books also have bioessentialism and antisemitism is a whole different conversation

racists on twitter tend to have names like cunny_reich_88 but someone twice as racist on reddit will have a name like quirky_pizza_dude because he's too disconnected from reality to even gauge how racist he is

[emnesoi0]

and he publicly makes fun of cunny_reich_88 not because (as he would insist) he fundamentally disagrees with any of his positions but rather because he thinks anime is degenerate art

[emnesoi0]

racists on tumblr, on the other hand, will just state unabashedly that they believe anime is degenerate art because they think they're being feminist for it

Bocchi the Rock is partly a wish fulfilment story. Every socially anxious tgirl has at some point wished an extrovert would notice their shared hobby and adopt her into her lesbian polycule on that basis.

Woman who hasn't been held in a decade: oh I'm pretty low maintenance, yeah honestly I think I'd find that overwhelming or something, can I just hold your hand instead? If that's okay of course?

[alurkerlieshere]

Woman who feels ill at the notion of taking up space: yeah I can stand. Yeah honestly it's no biggie I like standing. Do you mind if I lean here? It's okay to say no.

[alurkerlieshere]

Woman who would rather die than be considered selfish: I'm really sorry to ask I'm probably just being annoying but could I ask for another pillow? Yeah there isn't one in the room. Yeah no worries I can just bunch up some towels if needed.

[alurkerlieshere]

Woman who's most outlandish and fantastical fantasies are a coffee date and seeing a movie with someone: oh I don't get out much. Yeah I don't really like being around people. I'm pretty much an introvert. Or something like that yeah.

[alurkerlieshere]

Woman who would break down screaming and crying if someone showed even a hint of affection in person, who would fall apart at the seams if you held her still and asked her if she was okay, woman who if allowed too would wrap herself around you and sob and weep until she became severely dehydrated: oh yeah sorry I spaced out for a second there. Yeah I'm doing alright.

To send a message, write a complaint and boycott the company behind Burger King and the other franchises it owns.

This includes Popeyes and Tim Hortons.

Very many white LGBT people understand the idea that the societal concept that CisHet is the ‘standard’ or ‘default’ state of a human, at best, is a flattened look at the human experience, and worse a dangerous idea that leads to discrimination. Yet not very many of them seem to grasp the similar concept that thinking white people are the ‘default’ or ‘standard’ version of a person also leads to the same thing.

[the-quasar-hero]

Allowing myself to be perfectly blunt, this post is about racism. Specifically about how y’all can analyze and identify bigotry under the lens of sexual orientation and gender identity; but CANNOT or WILL NOT hear the criticisms of race and racism in the same regard. Please don’t get it twisted.

the problem is that a lot of people think that the evil of eugenics is "playing with forces of nature man was not meant to meddle with" and not the whole cohercion and killing and mutilation of people

[milanesa42]

Yank citizens are evil because when their country bombs another one their first thought is "this is bad because it's costing taxpayers money". And they think like this because they simply do not see Iranians as human beings

[tamamita]

Yank citizens are also evil because when their country bombs another one their first thought is "this is bad, bc American soldiers will die". And they think like this because they simply do not see Iranians as human beings

[missstrogen]

There's a good amount of people that have come in anon to tell me that they'd simply be a good parent. And like, the thing is that no matter how right they are, there's no amount of individual peoples being a good parent that can do away with the system of youth opression. As long as being abusive is something that is unpunished, socially accepted and encouraged, and even easier than not, bad parents will be the norm.

Just like for cops, it's not matter of removing the bad ones.

the older i get the more it's terrifying to me how much child surveillance is normalized. scared for your child's mental health? here's more tools that will make them feel even more watched at all times. child is experimenting with their gender identity while away from you? we made it this other adult's job to surveil them for you. kid is "enjoying" their "free time" instead of doing homework? we've put parental controls on the things that they like so that you can monitor their private time. like can we fucking stop

[pocket-deer-belly]

it took me until 24 to realize that my parents don't deserve to just waltz into my room while i'm asleep and that me thinking this was fucking terrifying behavior wasn't actually unreasonable at all

I think the hardest part about addressing child abuse is getting people to acknowledge, not just intellectually but actually responding accordingly, is that the biggest threat to children, the biggest risk of abuse, is family and parents.

it is of course most often parents who are crowing about needing to protect children (often against far smaller threats than family), and pointing out that they are, statistically, the biggest threat to their kids is not gonna be received well.

[discoursedrome]

tbh I feel like most of society’s rhetoric around “protecting children” comes from the same place as deep-patriarchy rhetoric on “protecting women”, where the idea is that they’re sacred and valuable but also treated essentially as property, and the the desire to protect them is largely experienced as a desire to ensure that those property rights are sacrosanct

[lloydthevoid]

Wow thats it
