Many lgbt teenagers and young adults growing up on the internet today have socially conservative beliefs that they voice at all times that they got from their conservative parents which they’ve never challenged because they think the life experience of being gay or trans makes them politically progressive

This is why I hate it when people say something homophobic and then go “so you’re really accusing me, a whole ass lesbian, of being homophobic 🙄” like yeah

And this is why I hate it when white people say something racist and then go “so you’re really accusing me, a whole ass gay person, of being racist 🙄” like yeah

"There's millions of Tumblr users" to you. To me There's only about 12 and we all reblog the same five posts from each other

And like I genuinely am loath to negatively discuss women’s bodies online and I think the way that famous women’s bodies are up for discussion online and in the press is upsetting and dehumanising and I feel a lot of compassion for women who are struggling with eating disorders and body image issues in the public eye however the fucking mass weight loss happening to all famous women either through eating disorders or weight loss medication cannot just go uncommented on. Nearly every single famous woman got skeletal overnight and it is so incredibly worrying both for them and for what it signals to other women and girls about how they should look.

the situation with harry potter is kind of unprecedented in some ways imo because it is maybe the largest media franchise in history to be created & owned by a single person who still has direct creative control over it. who is also a billionaire with significant cultural/political influence. like the usual "no ethical consumption under capitalism" type excuses shatter on impact when the bigoted author in question is logging onto twitter every day saying explicitly that when you buy the tim hortons ravenclaw donut she is using your donut money to fund the genocide of trans people. like with big franchises usually there's at least a little more diffusion of responsibility than this

[mirainikki]

this post is proof that white people hate it when you tell them they hold privilege over people of color

[birdonahotdog]

contrary to social media developers’ beliefs i have literally never once wanted to see posts in anything other than chronological order

what was remarkable about matilda was that it was her actual family that treated her like shit, not an orphanage or a step-parent or that she was adopted or anything like that.  there was no reveal like miss honey is like “im your real mother” it was all about found family because her family was bullshit and that was just the way it was.  it is so rare to see a biological family portrayed as people who don’t get their kids and don’t treat them right in kids media
