Knowing that trans women of color started the movement in the united states and were literally immediately erased and excluded from what they started is the most deeply jading knowledge.
It is the original sin of the so-called queer community and it damns it from the cradle.
Without Stonewall, without the efforts of Marsha P. Johnson and Sylvia Rivera, the LGBTQ Community wouldnāt be where it is today. Donāt forget the roots, donāt forget the catalyst.
and then TERFs wanna be like, āhmm well the LGBT community existed before Stonewall!ā
but likeā¦Becky, of course LGBTQ+ people existed before Stonewall. Weāve all existed since the beginning of time. But the movement got a shock to its senses, a jump-start, a rocket-into-space when that glass shattered via Marsha P. Johnson, and when Sylvia Rivera was up on-stage protesting guess who was on the sidelines heckling her?
The same fuckers who wonāt ever reblog or acknowledge this
My apologies to the original poster as I photo captured this post to add to the thread-I reposted this last year for pride and expect to repost it every year I have left-itās our history people.
Marsha P. Johnson allegedly died of suicide in 1992, and her death was never investigated. Even I, a mere prole, could catch theĀ āshe was murderedā vibes from the circumstances surrounding the discovery of her body.
Without a trans black woman, LGBT+ rights would not exist. Never forget. NeverĀ āpay it no mindā.
The Unofficial Homestuck Collection Has Not Been Taken Down.
Here is a link to Gio's version of the app, which was never removed from Github.
Here is a link to the Homestuck-controlled fork of the app, which was also never removed from Github.
Here is a link to a list of all forks from Gio's version of the app.
Here you will find a link to the asset pack, which is compatible with all forks of the app. There are also active torrents if you know where to look.
Stop spreading misinformation.
I can only speculate as to why Gio chose to headline his callout post with the factually untrue, eye-catching and bombastic statement "Unofficial Homestuck Collection Taken Down", but as a direct result, many people across the web are taking that as The Story, The Thing That Happened, despite being verifiably false. The only thing that was taken down was the link to the repository from Gio's own personal website.
Whatever else you may feel about Homestuck, the HICU, Andrew Hussie, Gio, or any of the other players involved, I implore all of you to, at the very least, stop spreading the lie that the Unofficial Homestuck Collection has been taken down.

The danger of piracy has become clear to even the Five Elder Stars, leaders of the World Government. So following the execution of the Pirate King, Kintobor Julian, an act was put in place known as the Seven Warlords of the Sea. The idea was simple. The Government would freeze a reputable pirate captain and their crewās bounties, while giving them the power to keep their territories and continue their operations. However, if they want to keep these powers, these pirates must take down other pirates and give the Government a cut of their profits, as well as helping the Government in the case of a war. Neither the Marines nor the public, nor do even pirates hold a particularly glowing review of the Warlords. The pirates call them āgovernment dogsā, the public consider them tools of war and the Marines think of them as a liability. Even so, they are held up as one of the Three Great Powers of the world, along with the Marines and the Four Emperors.
āWandering Warriorā Segata Sanshiro:
The worldās greatest martial artist who travels the world, searching for a worthy opponent to sate his boredom and succeed him. He was notorious for his ferocious nature back when he was young, hunting Marines for the satisfaction of an ultimate battle. He has no known Devil Fruit powers, merely a mastery of all known martial arts.
Former Bounty: 1,257,000,000
āMaster of Chaosā Zavok:
A powerful rookie who traveled to the New World, before being defeated by one of the Four Emperors, now he sits and plots in the nation known as Knothole. He leads the Deadly Six of the Zeti Pirates, and uses a powerful Devil Fruit known as the Huge Huge Fruit allowing him to increase his size.
Former Bounty: 76,000,000
āBlackā Dadevil Doom:
A former scientist for the World Government said to be on the level of the genius Robotnik Gerald, after the mysterious disappearance of Geraldās granddaughter, Maria, he started a pirate group that ravaged the New World known as the Black Arms Pirates. Doomās said to have modified his Lineage Factor, giving him multiple powers as well as having a Devil Fruit known as the Fuse Fuse Fruit, allowing him to fuse both himself and other people with other organic beings.
Former Bounty: 351,115,000
āStar Soldierā Gemerl:
A secret member of the Freedom Fighters, he was sent in as a mole for unknown reasons. He used to be notorious for his bloodthirsty nature and sadistic tendencies, but seems to have mellowed out in recent years. His primary fighting ability comes from his cyborg body, him being the prototype of the Emerl Project, named after him. The Emerl Projectās technology enables him to imitate any fighting style to the best of his ability, as well as mimicking the Robotnik familyās genetic research.
Former Bounty: 273,000,000
āIron Queenā Ferrum Regina and āIron Kingā Jun Kun:
As these two are co-captains, they both serve as one Warlord. These two are the rulers of the traveling technological wonder nation known as the Iron Dominion, made using Reginaās Devil Fruit power, the Steel Steel Fruit, allowing her to create and manipulate any metal within her range, while Jun Kun serves as itās chief enforcer using the power of the mythical Ox Ox Fruit: Model Minotaur, giving him incredible power and durability. Despite their incredible power, they both lost in their attempts in conquering the New World, being utterly devastated by the Emperor, Naugus.
Former Bounties:
Regina: 320,700,000
Jun Kun: 320,200,000
āSetting Dawnā Abyss:
A powerful squid fishwoman, sheās been a popular advocate for fishman supremacy. However, this is all just front. Abyss doesnāt care at all for her own race, let alone any lofty ideals like the subjugation of humankind, all she wants is treasure and cash. She fights using her species' natural electricity, and her own form of Fishman Judo.
Former Bounty: 283,000,000
āDestruction Duoā Usagi Cream and Cheese:
Cream is a young girl whose mother, Vanilla, was a former member of the terrifying and infamous Lyric Pirates. Her pet rabbit, Cheese, ate the Arms Arms Fruit one day, a fruit that allows the user to transform into any weapon. Her pet, not understanding the incredible amount of power given to it, went on a rampage, almost destroying the forest they lived in. Using her power, the Whisper Whisper Fruit, allowing her to talk to animals, she helped calm down her pet and stop the rampage. However, this rampage brought the attention of the World Government, forcing a deal with Vanilla. Her daughter becomes one of the Warlords, effectively their weapon, and they donāt execute the two of them for being ācriminals.ā Not wanting her mama to die for no good reason, Cream took the Warlord offer.
Former Bounty: None
If a Warlord were to be defeated by any pirate not officially classified as an Emperor of the Sea, found to be conspiring against the World Government, or in any other way deemed unsuitable to continue their role as Warlord, their title may be revoked, and another pirate shall be scouted to fill their position. While this is a rare occurrence, it seems to be becoming more frequent as more and more powerful rookies begin sailing the seas.
āDr. Eggmanā Robotnik Ivo:
After Zavokās defeat at the hands of rookie pirate Hedgehog D. Sonic and subsequent arrest for his crimes against the kingdom of Knothole, a mysterious man by the name of Sleet suddenly appeared in the Holy Land, as the Fleet Admiral of the Marines and attending Warlords opened discussion on how to move forward. He came in with a simple recommendation. A little known pirate and underworld operator by the name of Eggman. Eggmanās bounty is a mirage formed by his heritage and insiders in the Marines, purposefully underselling him and how powerful he truly is. He holds the power of the Clang Clang Fruit, allowing him to disassemble any machinery he so desires and reassemble it into whatever form he likes, with this ability being the core factor that powers his primary business, his Badniks. Cyberized corpses and slaves, made into robotic soldiers through his fruitās ability. The Clang Clang Fruit is also the main factor to his shocking longevity, having long since transcended mankind through cybernetics.
Former Bounty: 3,660,000
Nack āthe Weasel:ā
The Paramount War would go down in history as one of the most devastating recent events in world history. The death of the Emperor Nights, and subsequent disbanding of the Nights Pirates, as the far more dastardly Davy D. Fiona and her Destructix Pirates quickly took their place. The defeat of the Marines shook the publicās trust in them, with the newly promoted Fleet Admiral Rosemary taking a far more ruthless approach on how to deal with pirates. And, most relevant to us, two new Warlord spots had been opened up, with Creamās resignation and the supposed deaths of the Iron Queen and King on the battlefield. And almost immediately as the battle ended, a messenger bat had invited a certain low tier pirate from the South Blue whose standing in the pirate world had skyrocketed to fill that role. While Nack is a decent sharpshooter, and does have the power of the Slow Slow Fruit, allowing him to fire a beam capable of slowing down anyone, he was not chosen for the role due to his actual strength. Instead, he was chosen for his perceived power as a former member of the Kintobor Pirates and the crew he had quickly formed around him through his sheer charisma alone, made up of dozens, if not hundreds of some of the most deadly prisoners freed from Prison Island.
Former Bounty: 15,000,000
Luke Custer āthe Altered Beast:ā
As the Iron Queen and Iron King were dismissed from the Warlords for their weakness, one has to wonder if the World Government overcompensated. Custer is a monster, notorious as the Demon of Foret, a child soldier who slaughtered thousands, not for any ideals such as his country or peace, but simply out of a love for bloodshed and battle, his strength bolstered by his Devil Fruit, the Munch Munch Fruit, which allowed him to gain the capabilities of whatever he consumed, with his personal favorite meals being live animals. He became a crewmate of Kintobor Julian, the Pirate King, purely to test his strength and kill the only man that had ever beaten him, where his notoriety only grew. After his captain was executed, Custer found himself listless, empty, as he decided to go on a rampage and burn the world down in an attempt to sate his ennui. He destroyed countless towns, razed dozens of islands to the ground, until he was finally stopped by a Buster Call, beaten in battle by a rising star in the Marines, Hedgehog D. Jules, and locked away in Prison Island for 22 years, as his fire slowly died out. After a few years, the man was practically a living corpse. Never moving, never speaking, and only barely eating, all he did was sit, waiting. Until Hedgehog D. Sonic kickstarted the worst incident in Prison Islandās history, and ran into the Altered Beast himself, who sensed the same ferocity and fire in the young man as he did his former captain, and he realized that his wait was over. As the World Government scrambled to find new Warlords following the War, a certain higher-upās synapses connected in just the right way to make the worst decision possible. Later that week, Custer left Prison Island with a demented smile on his face, a complete pardon for his crimes, and full government approval.
Former Bounty: 2,225,000,000
āUltimate Lifeformā Terios Shadow:
While Hedgehog D. Sonic and his crew spent the 2 years after the Paramount War training and growing stronger, their rivals and equals in the newly christened Worst Generation began their own machinations. While the Starline Pirates and the Diamond Cutters took a far safer route, allying themselves with the Four Emperors, and Fiona quickly slaughtered her own path straight to Emperor status in her own right, Sonicās foremost rival, Shadow, decided to completely sidestep the issue, as he took his own year off of piracy, before suddenly coming back and storming Fishman Island with a specific purpose to kick off his own plan for vengeance. Find and defeat Abyss, which he accomplished, though not without difficulty as it took all three of the Supernovas on his crew, him, Silver, and Rouge, to finish her off. Despite this, the performance was more than satisfactory for the World Government, as they responded to his request for Warlord status with resounding approval. Shadow holds the power of the Tock Tock Fruit, allowing him to control his personal flow of time, though this is in no way where the bulk of his strength comes from, being the masterpiece of the late Robotnik Gerald, having an insanely powerful body due to his Lunarian DNA.
Good Guy (usually has a beard and daddy issues) finds out Bad Thing is going to happen. Good Guy decides that the only way to do stop Bad Thing is to work with Bad Guy and do Bad Thing because Hard Men Do Hard Things Rock Hard. Good Guy inevitably learns that doing Bad Thing and working with Bad Guy is not a good solution to solve Bad Thing. Next Generation solves Bad Thing despite being exactly like Old Guard. No women do anything important.
This flag is pissing off TERFs of course but i am seeing so much colorful JOY from trans lesbians and other lesbians in the notes like I've never seen a set of tags so happy before omg
The main female antagonist in the Devil May Cry rebootās boss fight has her literally summon her baby from her womb to fight for her. as opposed to the original seriesās female boss fights, which includes a woman who makes bats and shoots lightning, a woman who fights you with a fuck ton of guns, and a big snake plant monster.
But the reboot is the one that treats their female cast with respect, as according to Ninja Theory, the creators of the reboot.
No, but the rebootās female cast arenāt just prostitutes with guns, unlike Lady, who had an emotional arc about why revenge hurts even if itās well deserved, or Trish, who has an arc about learning what itās like to be human due to Danteās influence.
Instead we have Kat. who serves no role in the plot that cannot be filled with the spray can she uses.
And Lilith, who literally exists to be pregnant with Mundusās kid, get a sniper rifle abortion, and then die.
THE REBOOT LITERALLY USES ITS FEMALE CAST MEMBERS AS FUCKIBG BARGAINING CHIPS.
No, but the reboot is the one that respects women tho. /s
The Spawn comes out because it wants to come out. Not to mention, I think itās implied the Spawn was playing, in that fight? Like with Dante and with Lillith.
Lillith isnāt a fighter? Mundus in the reboot is a creep, he would not want an heir with a being that could compete with him. Also, thatās not her job either. She controls/keeps an eye on Humans & Limbo City via the Collaborators and the entity that possesses Limbo.
Given Lillith clearly was not intended to be a reformed antagonist, letās compare her to Echidna (the snake lady). What about Echnidna makes her better than Lillith.
And for Kat. I like to think of her story as Something similar to Ladyās, worked a bit down the line. Like, Kat eventually figuring out that uncritical obedience and adoration to a figure- even a figure that helped you out of a horrible situation can result in you being blind to darker truths.
I thought they clarified her role in the end pretty clearly. Sheās the reason the plan to kill Mundus had worked at all. ā She is the one who found Dante, she is the one who held out under torture to protect Vergils identity, she is the reason Vergil escaped with the data that was needed to break into Mundusā security, and she is the one who used her time being tortured to go get the layout of Mundusā building.
I wonāt deny that the shortNskinny on Lillith is accurate or that it sucks but you canāt name a single female game villain with anything better.
Im pretty sure Trish and Lady got a bit and Lucia maybe got like a third of that. But then, none of them get anything stood as they got outside their first games.
Are you really telling me that Trish and Lady getting stuck in other demons for most of 5 with no further characterization or meaningful inclusion is better than the concept of the Trade-Off trope being utilized with women??
Iāll never say that the way Trish and Lady are treated in DMC5 is perfect, hell, itās not even good. The closest either of them get to having a genuinely good moment is Lady telling Nero that you never really get over killing your father. But Iām not gonna say that being used as bargaining chips is being better than used as batteries.
And I actually can think of a female villain in the franchise who does most of what Lilith does better than her.
Malphas, the bird lady from DMC5. Iām not gonna say she gets a lot of screentime to herself, but what we do get is actually pretty good. She takes initiative and orders Cavaliere Angelo to hunt down the Sparda despite Urizen not being worried about it, sheās a skilled enough mage to create a pocket universe and recreate three bosses, and she almost manages to kill V, and probably would have if not for Neroās intervention. Sheās a competent Dragon-in-Chief who isnāt a particularly strong fighter, but manages to use her knowledge and skill to put the protags on the backfoot. And she isnāt even that particularly sexualized, unlike Nevan.
And hey, you know what, Iāll give you Kat making the plan to take down Mundus, that is something that legit only she could do. I also straight up do not think we actually get to see that character arc you described play out, because Kat never actually gets a moment to BE a character without Dante, whoās a boring block of wood thatās nothing at best, and grating at worst, meaning neither are particularly fleshed out, outside of when Dante tells her how to handle being arrested, which is the closest their dynamic actually gets to something sweet.
Also, given her character arc as you described is essentially her breaking away from Vergil and seeing how much of a bastard he is despite all the good heās done for him, it would be really interesting if the two ever actually had any interactions together outside the cutscene before Vergilās boss fight. And Vergilās Downfall doesnāt count, since thatās not really Kat, just Fedora Boyās incel ramblings given form.
Also, if Iām to be entirely honest, my rant really spawned more from the old interviews before the Reboot came out where Tameem, at his peak of his āfuck the old fansā rockstar attitude douchiness, compared the old DMC ladies to prostitutes with guns in comparison to how his game treated women. Now, he said he meant nothing by it, but I donāt believe that Mr. āOur Danteās not a gay cowboyā has particularly progressive views on sex work.
āshit, man, this transformers war is fucked. i just saw megatron clap his hands together and spew antimatter from his eyes and rip apart the protectobots without even moving. the camera didnāt even go onto him, thatās how common this shit is. iām a d-tier autobot who hasnāt had a toy since 2003, my ass is using a radion blaster and level 2 frag grenades. i think i just heard stan bush start playing two groups over, i gotta get the fuck outta here.ā
AGP? Like.. A guppy? I love guppies! Hehe! Yay! Cucked beta...? I LOVE betta fish! They're so pretty! Hehehe, I can't believe you love fish too! Do you wanna go to the aquarium with me? Huh? I'm an egg...? No silly! I'm a tadpole, hehe! A lot of fishies lay eggs.. but I'm not a baby anymore! How rude! Huh? Boy... moder.... Oh! You mean sequential hermaphroditism! You must really be a fish expert! Yeah! A lot of clownfish start as males but become females later in life! Aren't fishies just the best???
Whoaaaaa!!! That's an awesome sharky plush! What kinda shark is it?? Blahaj...? Oh! Oh oh! That means blue shark doesn't it! Blue sharks are migratory, hehe, that means they travel loooong distances every year! I wish I could travel.. I'd go see the ocean! I love sharkies and orcas and fishies and squids and octopi and... HUH?! You've never seen a fish in real life before?! That's not okay! We're going to the aquarium right now! Aww.. It's okay! You look nice! The fishies won't judge, eheh, you look like a girl to me! C'mon! If we're lucky we'll get to see the new tiger sharks!!!
They are exploring under the bed! This is normal stuffed animal behavior, as they are trained to protect you from monsters and shadow creatures, so it's natural that they want to keep an eye out. Don't be sad, thank your friend for doing such a good job.
