Update 05/07/2026:

Donations and reblogs have came to a standstill but my friend still does need some help. If anyone can lend a hand and match me donating at least £5 you would really be helping a girl in the global south out.

[khoesib]

Update: 19/07/2026

This has slowed down again and there still hasn't been many donations given. If anyone could give any amount thatd be really helpful as my friend has moved back to Manila from her small town and is currently job hunting but until she can find something, she needs some assistance. Please share if you can't donate.

straight men enduring 24/7 sexual assault each other in order to not be labeled faggots is honestly the best example of how masculinity operates. the other day before work a coworker fr shoved a finger in another coworker's ass (above pants) as one of their little "ha ha you're gay" jokes. fuck is wrong with them. equal parts disgusted and fascinated by their behaviour.

[tboy-trash]

of course these people are fucked up and unable to hold healthy relationships grounded in mutual respect! they're constantly assaulting and being assaulted by their friends just to Not Be Gay/Like A Girl!!!

[tboy-trash]

the biggest reason men refuse to recognize a lot of what they do to women as sexual harassment/assault is bc of their misogyny and wanting to maintain our power over women, 100%. BUT can i just point out that maybe a smaller but not-insignificant reason might also be that they can't even recognize sexual assault when other men do it to them???? i didn't tell that coworker bc he's an asshole, but i have had to tell other guys at work "hey what they're doing to you is terrible and you shouldn't have to put up with it you know" which most of them hadn't ever been told before because """""roughhousing""""" is part of that "boys will be boys" thing that makes everyone ignore our abuse

[tboy-trash]

"boys will be boys" okay well maybe boys should be shot

Hey folks, I've got some good news. We were able to secure a source of rent for Falestine, and she can now stay indoors instead of in a tent. However, her struggles are far from over: she still has to face high food and daily costs, and with the low volume of donations lately she frequently runs out of money. Again, I know times are tough, but please, if you can spare anything at all, donate! especially if you can sign up for a recurring donation so she has a guaranteed income she can rely on, it would be extremely appreciated! Thank you all so much ❤️

Hello Everyone,

what is your response to global poverty declining?

It's not. The capitalist institutions making this claim have routinely massaged the numbers and moved the goalposts to cover up the fact that global poverty is stagnating at best. And by any metric, once you take China out of the picture, global poverty is worsening.

This paper by anthropologist and economist Jason Hickel thoroughly breaks down and exposes the fraudulent nature of this claim:

July 9, 2026 - In Temuco, Chile, the carabineros of the far-right President Kast were showered with molotov cocktails as they tried to attack a protest in remembrance of Pablo Marchant, a young Mapuche militant gunned down by police in 2021. [video]

the statement: "a legal theory was proposed in which trans women could be targeted without violating the Constitution because other women and other trans people are excluded from our specific oppression, which suggests that transmisogyny is real and that transmisogyny affected and exempted are meaningful categories for analysis of our material conditions."

the response: "you are sowing divisions in our community by saying this. everyone has to get on board to fix things, which will only happen if you stop bringing this up. you are crazy, paranoid, and confused and the more you talk about your problems, the more we'll blame you for the violence that's done to you."

[doe-eyed-disaster]

the smug condescension of a man who, upset that his privilege has been identified, asserts his male privilege knowing that a fair number of people will hop on board the "trans women are paranoid and divisive" train rather than interrogating their own biases and coming to the defense of more vulnerable members of their community.

the cherry on top was the tags, where he addressed the transfem he reblogged by name and said "I'm disappointed in you" as if she had done something wrong by sharing a post about her specific oppression. it's genuinely gross how trans women are treated so poorly so casually. how dare we speak?

[biggest-gaudiest-poltergeist]

so the synopsis of The Ring is: you will die 7 days after watching this videotape. my question is does that apply to rewatching the tape. let's say I watch the tape, wait 6 days, and watch it again. does the timer reset to 7 days? can I do this indefinitely? can I become functionally immortal by watching the evil videotape on a weekly basis?

[girlfailure-poetics]

it’s better to think of the curse as almost biological in nature (in the books it kind of literally is). You have a psychic-biologic virus with an incubation period of 7 days. In 7 days the symptoms of the virus will kill you, but anything else can in the intervening days as well

[categorical-abstract-ml-blog]

ok but if you go to the actual article the person was buried with women’s accessories and in the manner reserved for women and from that they decided it must be a gay man which is sort of hilarious

[rainbowobsidianbutterfly]

So basically what you have here is a skeleton of someone that we’d assign CAMAB in modern, binarist colonial societies

being presented with accoutrements and signs of social recognition that are legible to us in said societies as “female” due to their association with skeletons we’d parse as CAFAB in the same cultural tradition

and the take is “it’s a gay man”

And yet people don’t wanna listen when you point out that part of transmisogyny is assuming that trans women are just weird men

like people just don’t think that’s a thing or the statement bounces off because they literally can’t see how it could be otherwise

Hello Everyone,

[khoesib]

"Diaspora voices are all bad". Rohingya? Eelam Tamil? Palestinian? I understand people aren't talking about these specific groups but that doesn't really mean much if making a statement that talks about "diasporas" as though they're like monolithic entities.

[khoesib]

When people are forced to leave their nations due to US imperialism or the nationalist ambitions of small nations does that immediately give them reactionary tendencies and immediately implant a CIA chip into their mind? No.

Reactionary diasporas develop due to specific circumstances and these circumstances can change over time as a result of changing political and economic situations. I think rather than discounting "Diaspora voices" as a whole, we could try an approach wherein we don't innately believes narratives because they are spouted by the correct kind of person but do research into those narratives to verify them yourself, whether diaspora or national.
