"Loving Day" celebrates the historic ruling in Loving v. Virginia, which declared unconstitutional a Virginia law prohibiting mixed-race ma
Coincidentally, today is Valentine's Day in Brazil. â€ïžđ§đ·
This was only 55 years ago. You can understand a lot of whatâs wrong with the US if you realize that the average age of our elected senators is about 63. âGood old daysâ is a dogwhistle.
Our current Supreme Court mightâve ruled against the Lovings.
You donât have to know what your sexuality is. You donât have to know what your gender is. There isnât a test that you need to prepare for. Sometimes these things are confusing and the only answers you have are ânot straight / cis.â Donât beat yourself up over not knowing.
oh this is gonna be bad huhÂ
heyyyy so without giving much away season 4 starts with a bunch of dead children like, violently killed, screaming, dead children, this was actually a really appropriate warning for netflix to post and if you have been traumatized by recent events i would 100% recommend skipping or waiting until you feel like you can handle itÂ
protip if you want to skip that specific scene but still know basically what happened you can fast forward to 8 min 30 seconds, i dont know why netflix didnt just give you a time tag in the warning but there it isÂ
Iâm in the UK and didnât get this warning so a heads up for my non US followers that this might be purely a Netflix US thing and you might want to skip to the time stamp mentioned above. Even as a non American, it was uncomfortable viewing in light of recent events.
my blog is for the girls who finished last during the mile in PE
speaking of website ranking being absolutely horrible right now last night I was trying to search for information on beta blocker withdrawal and I found
medical studies from the 1980s saying "hey apparently beta blocker withdrawal happens"
websites telling me what beta blockers are
people on reddit venting about how much beta blocker withdrawal hurts
shitty subscription medical forums where most of the replies just confirmed that it exists and make you pay to see the real answers...which are almost always SHIT
SO MANY WEBSITES that are just made up of copying information from other websites, which is all bullshit, AI generated, or not at all proofread
I fucking despise what search engines are now I hate what the internet is becoming and I hate SEO shit and I hate how the companies that generate the worst and least accurate data are able to afford to keep up with the changing algorithms so people immediately find wrong and irrelevant information for life threatening activities
this is just going to keep getting worse and going to keep obfuscating essential time-sensitive information. just having ADS on emergency medical videos like CPR should be fucking criminal
do you have any idea how many "medical" websites are entirely made up of lies to get you to click on them? huh? do you even have a fraction of an idea the sheer number of websites and accounts and viral companies that exist just to generate ad revenue even if they kill people?
there is a viral wood burning activity called "fractal wood burning" that has killed DOZENS of people already just in the united states just the ones that are documented to be from fractal wood burning and these videos keep getting uploaded and people keep fucking dying because of how many people are willing to literally kill people for ad revenue
source on the fractal wood burning from a channel that debunks a lot of these horrible companies and their dangerous content, warning this video contains graphic descriptions of death and images of life-threatening injuries
the internet did not used to be this awful. search engines used to be better. but now even duckduckgo is totally shit
Okay, I really love how many lgbtqia+ identities are slowly becoming accepted as normal by many but itâs getting under my skin that aro/ ace identities are not as normalized or talked about. We are just as valid as the rest but Iâm always hearing stuff like âoh your to young to know,â âyouâll find the right one,â âyour just confused,â and âhow do you know you donât like it if you donât have itâ plus so much more. On top of everything is amatonormativity and allonormativity, like why do weâre as a society view sex and romance as a default and alienate those who donât/ canât experience them. And the fact that many people, even some queer people donât even know what these identities are, like we are so underrepresented and rarely acknowledged to the point where own community doesnât know who we are. There is also all of the misconceptions and stereotypes around us to which Iâm not even going to touch in this post.
TLDR: aros and aces are cool and valid!
Iâm about 90% sure the economy is never gonna âimproveâÂ
this is capitalism in itâs final form
this is it honeyÂ
except, you know, those companies that do a charitable thing for every thing they sell
thatâs kinda new and interesting. benevolent capitalism
Pay attention, class: This is what it looks like when one is unwilling to consider new information.
Itâs not new information, though. Itâs misinformation.
First, itâs not that new.
Did you know that there was a time in U.S. historyâwhich is by definition recent historyâwhen a corporation was generally intended to have some sort of public interest that they served? I mean, thatâs the whole point of allowing corporations to form. Corporations are recognized by the commonwealth or state, and this recognition is not a right but a privilege, in exchange for which the state (representing the people) is allowed to ask, âSo what does this do for everyone else?â
The way the economy is now is a direct result of a shift away from this thinking and to one where a corporation is an entity unto itself whose first, last, and only concern is an ever-increasing stream of profits. What youâre calling âbenevolent capitalismâ isnât benevolent at all. Itâs a pure profit/loss calculation designed to distract fromânot even paper over or stick a band-aid onâthe problems capitalism creates. And the fact that youâre here championing it as âbenevolent capitalismâ is a sign of how ell itâs working.
Letâs take Toms, as one example. The shoe thatâs a cause. Buy a pair of trendy shoes, and a pair of trendy shoes will be given away to someone somewhere in the world who canât afford them.
Thatâs not genuine benevolence. Thatâs selling you, the consumer, on the idea that you can be benevolent by buying shoes, that the act of purchasing these shoes is an act of charity. The reality is that their model is an inefficient means of addressing the problems on the ground that shoelessness represents, and severely disrupts the local economies of the locations selected for benevolence.
(Imagine what it does to the local shoemakers, for instance.)
The supposed act of charity is just a value add to convince you to spend your money on these shoes instead of some other shoes. Itâs no different than putting a prize in a box of cereal.
Heck, you want to see how malevolent this is?
Go ask a multinational corporation that makes shoes or other garments to double the wages of their workers. Theyâll tell you they canât afford it, that itâs not possible, that consumers wonât stand for it, that youâll drive them out of business and then no one will have wages.
But the fact that a company can give away one item for every item sold shows you what a lie this is. A one-for-one giving model represents double the cost of labor and materials for each unit that is sold for revenue. Doubling wages would only double the labor.
So why are companies willing to give their products away (and throw them away, destroy unused industry with bleach and razors to render them unsalvageable, et cetera) but theyâre not willing to pay their workers more?
Because capitalism is the opposite of benevolence.
âCharityâ is by definition exemplary, above and beyond, extraordinary, extra. âCharityâ is not something that people are entitled to. You give people a shirt or shoes or some food and call it charity, and youâre setting up an expectation that you can and will control the stream of largesse in the future, and anything and everything you give should be considered a boon from on high.
On the other hand, once you start paying your workers a higher wage, youâre creating an expectation. Youâre admitting that their labor is more valuable to you than you were previously willing to admit, and itâs hard to walk that back.
Plus, when people have enough money for their basic needs, theyâre smarter and stronger and warier and more comfortable with pushing back instead of being steamrolled over. They have time and money to pursue education. They can save money up and maybe move away. They can escape from the system that depends on a steady flow of forced or near-forced labor.
So companies will do charitable âbuy one, give oneâ and marketing âbuy one, get oneâ even though these things by definition double the overhead per unit, but they wonât do anything that makes a lasting difference in the standard of living for the people.
Capitalism has redefined the world so that the baseline of ethics is âHow much money can we make?â and every little good deed over and above that is saintly.
But thereâs nothing benevolent about throwing a scrap of bread to someone whoâs starving in a ditch because you ran them out of their home in the first place.
This is one of the best anti-capitalist posts on the entire site.
some of you need to make your bed and have a shower with a soap that smells nice, and then sit in a chair near the window and have tea with milk and read a hardcover book and see how your creative block is after that tbh.
i'm not saying creative block isn't a real or difficult phenomenon. i'm saying creatives have a tendency to neglect themselves physically and emotionally in favor of manic bursts of productivity. a little softness and clean sheets and a bagel will go a long way. make a playlist and light the fancy candle you've been saving for a special occasion. life is a special occasion.
we need to stop acting like a woman wants to dominate you just because shes strong
it really is creepy to see a woman with a certain body type and immediately jump to expressing how well they would fit into a sexual fantasy of yours even if its jokingly
This also goes with associating fat women with being motherly and soft. Just don't associate sexuality and personality traits with certain body types please!
I know im exposing myself as horny here but fuckin, at this point im done trusting twitter porn artists whose OCs are 90% cis femboys and YES that includes the transmasc ones Iâm two for two on them saying Weird Shit about trans women
One of them tried to put down a trans woman for asking not to be called âdudeâ and the other one griped about how awful it is that people hc anime femboys as trans girls the fucking tone deafness no wonder the bread and butter of their art is fetishizing trans womens bodies
I LIKE sexy art of cute characters with dicks!!! I do!! And if the artist says their character with a skirt and makeup and a fat ass is a cis dude then sure go for it!!!! But when you get pissy about trans girl headcanons for characters that arent your own I guess there was a reason for that choice huh!!!!
God I dont even know how to start with how gross âcan we get one anime femboy without people headcanoning him as a trans girl isâ like sir, why is that a problem to you? Is there a reason the concept of that character being a trans girl and not your Sexy UwU Femboy is upsetting?
one hundo percent
Honestly if someone is using it that way good on them I guess but I have always seen it mean âthis character is cute and traditionally feminine in every way except theyâre flat chested and have a penisâ
do you like the colour of my immortal
idek what to tell ppl who are uncomfortable with the historical importance of kink in lgbt culture like... sorry? i'll just go back in time to like idk stonewall or whatever and tell all the gay leathermen and whoever else to go home cuz in 50 years some puritanical gay people on the internet are gonna be uncomfortable with their influence on our culture? this isnt to say kink is inherently queer but its always been important in our community. cmon now
and on the topic of kink and lgbt culture the whole kink in pride thing is ridiculous and also like. a non-issue. the most you'll see at pride is maybe some pup masks and leather daddies. they r just outfits. youve been fooled by conservative assholes trying to pass off pictures of folsom as regular pride events. people at pride are not having sex in the streets
When you look into the history of the gay acceptance movement pre stonewall, you see two groups, one preaching these same respectability politics (typically the wealthier gays) and the other saying âno, fuck them, we have every right to live in this world exactly as we areâ
And guess which group actually made a difference?
Listen, y'all. Allocishets will always sexualize us. Trying to find some way of presenting that's gonna appease them literally won't work.
If even ace people are sexualized by allocishets, then we all will be.
They see everything about us as sexual. When allocishets talk about kink at pride, they're including trans people just existing. They're including gay folks that are there with their partners. They're including poly people that are there with more than one partner.
There is no separation of sex and kink related topics from queer topics. Because the liberation of sexual topics goes hand in hand with the liberation of queer folks. They're both inherently antithetical to the conservative ideal and will therefore be targetted as a result.
We'll never find victory in trying to mold ourselves into our abusers' ideals. Who we are already disqualifies us from that.
Lovely little reminder thatÂ
Aro/Ace-specs are valid and are part of the LGBT+ community, regardless if theyâre cishet or not :)
Bringing this back for pride month because Iâm already seeing this issue, so let me just remind you that the concept of being aromantic or asexual is fundamentally against hetronormativity and is still a largely underrepresented part of our community.Â
I got bored and started developing a new batch of elves based on how goddamn weird and eccentric immortals would be
âI have spent 3000 years developing minutely different cheeses and have domesticated two types of mammals in that time slowly to make cheese from their milk.â
As an autistic woman, I am absolutely digging into the concept of special interests and how ridiculous they could get after being given thousands of years to develop.
I also donât want to do the whole âmy non-elven friends and lovers are here for but a momentâ tragedy angle, so other races have reincarnation. That some elves spend most of their time on grand adventures looking for the most recent incarnation of their friends is just part of the world-building.
[ID: comment by @ray10k reading: Ok, but consider this: Reborn bothers. Like, some mortals that are inexplicably drawn to This One Elf, despite both disliking each other. Not destined arch-rivals, just "we keep bothering each other and we can't seem to stop, HELP!"]
The mortal doesnât remember their past lives, shows up to ask the elf for some service, the elf immediately GROANS âgods forsake me, you again!!â
âRennan, your squire has returned. Arenât you going to greet him?â
âHeâs a priest this time around but Iâm still knocking him off a horse as soon as possible.â
Reincarnation details, from an ask I answered about them:
Reincarnation in this setting carries over the basic nature of the person, and souls stay with their own people unless an entire species is lost.
For most people that arenât elves, reincarnation is more of a religious belief than something that directly effects their day to day life. The elves have enough magic to restore memories of old lives, but they can also identify their reborn friends and thus arenât throwing it around randomly.
It isnât JUST elves, thoughâ particularly gifted wizards sometimes dream of their past lives (especially as children), dwarves carry grudges and unfulfilled loves into their next lives (they call the resulting love or hate at first sight their soul sense), harpies and merfolk remember the territories they claimed in any life theyâve ever lived (and are thus incredibly geographically gifted), and dragons are reborn with their memories intact.
Love not having a âââfandomâââ specific blog. Something new will just consume my mind and everyone has to accept it. My house
Is it wrong that Iâm cool with âsexâ being removed from the pride flag? They should bring back âmagicâ though.
Personally I think youâre wrong and an idiot but thatâs just my opinion.
Fyi this isnât a dig at people who are asexual or sex-repulsed. Gay sex was literally a criminal act in the parts of the United States Texas until 2003. A healthy relationship to both sex and your body is a major component of the human experience, but especially LGBTQ+ people. Yes this includes people who have a healthy understanding of their boundaries with regards to sex. To try and divorce the fight for LGBTQ+ rights from sexuality is both dangerous and ahistorical.
