@lemon13th
Hi! My name is Lemonade! I use all but she & welcome to my Tumblr! Here's some basic stuff about me:
20 (Birthday on Nov 30th)
Trans Man who's also Non-binary & Xenic.
Ficto-Aego Aroace & Apl-spec.
Autism, ADHD, Anxiety & OCD haver.
Horror freak! (I love anything Horror except for Slashers)
I love drawing & having fun in a world that hates fun!

Gay people and trans people and all of the people! Whoever, however you identify, queer, straight, all of the above, or none of the above (I’m talking to you aces aros and agenders), I think it’s very cool that we’re all here in the dca fandom. To collectively be absolutely obsessed for nearly 5 years for two weird looking robots from a video game that maybe had like 20 minutes of screen time is such an accomplishment.
Heh, they are my therapy gremlins.

This post is like a fucking rosetta stone I've had the same theme song tagged in at least 6 languages so far
HAPPY PRIDE METTALINGS!!!
Once when I was in undergrad, someone described something as “problematic” in class and our professor was like, “That’s cool, but ‘problematic’ doesn’t really mean anything. It means that the thing you’re describing has a problem, and in and of itself that’s not bad. Art, especially, should always have problems, or else it’s not interesting and not art, either. It sounds like you’re trying to say that this is bad, but you don’t want to say ‘bad.’ Is that right?”
So from then on whenever one of us called something problematic, he would make us talk it out until we could name the “bad” thing we were hinting at. In this particular class, 7/10 it was some type of oppression, and the remainder was like, “I’m uncomfortable because this is very new/confusing/pushing boundaries that made me feel safe.”
Once we stopped calling things “problematic” and stopping at that, class got way more interesting and... we all had to say, like, “that’s racist” or “that’s misogynistic” or “ew capitalism gross” out loud, which a lot of us had never done in a classroom before. Or we had to be like, “Uhhh... I’m not sure what’s so bad?” and confront our own beliefs and that was maybe even more useful.
Anyway. Whenever I see the word problematic, I can’t help but think of this professor being like, “Good starting point, now let’s get specific.” I think when we have to commit to saying “that’s ___” it requires a lot more careful thought about the truth and impact and complexities of whatever we’re claiming. Sometimes there really is some bullshit afoot, and also sometimes it’s art, and it should be full of problems, because that’s what art is.
theres a phenomenon that happens on here i have been calling "normalize loving parents posting" which is when you spend a lot of time on tumblr and are exposed to a lot of one specific counter-cultural narrative day in and day out until you start to forget what the dominant ideas are for most of the human population and thus feel the need to "defend" things that are widely accepted and popular. it's called this because of the time a bunch of text posts about shitty dads were circulating and then people with good relationships with their dad didn't feel included enough and started making "uhmmm can we normalize loving parents? not everyone has a deadbeat dad, MY dad is great" type posts, seemingly forgetting that good relationship with dad is a cultural norm that is expected and encouraged. i think its good practice, especially when im annoyed, to stop before i hit the post button and ask myself if this is a real issue or if im normalize loving parents posting. because often im about to try to normalize loving parents
common examples of normalize loving parents posting:
support women who shave their legs and wear makeup every day
let's hear it for masculine men
reminder that two people of the same gender can have a close platonic relationship!! not everything is gay!!
skinny shaming is hurtful too guys
does anyone else think [ironic kink du jour] is strange and freaky and gross?
saluting our bravest warriors who aren't afraid to stand up and advocate for the status quo
The Department of Education worked with the far-right Family Research Council to officially designate March 12th as Detrans Awareness Day last year. But what actually leads people to detransition? It's not regret, but social stigma, incited by the very figures who claim to protect detransitioners. I want to hear their stories describing how the current moral panic influenced their decisions.
the unholy trinity of piss-poor caretakers, tag yourself:
tomboy, meaning "this child is clearly queer but let's hope it goes away"
sensitive, meaning "clearly neurodivergent and often distressed but let's keep going until they grow numb"
mature, meaning "traumatized but let's ignore that"
quiet, meaning "has been yelled at or ignored a few too many times and now considers all attempts at communicating with others to be pointless"
self-sufficient, meaning "next to zero trust in parental figures' ability in various aspects of parenting"
lazy, meaning "depressed, but expected to preform tasks or actions without positive support or knowledge of how to do things"
hrt and transgender surgeries being positioned as dangerous and experimental despite being around for much longer than ozempic, which many people are pushing as a miracle weight loss drug while ignoring its real medical indications and any possible negative side effects
it seems like hypocrisy but it's really the same idea: your body is not yours to control. you are not allowed to be fat, you are not allowed to be trans, we will say whatever it takes to keep you in line
I feel like everyone has their own meaning of what friendship is, so what some people would consider just an acquaintanceship, others would see it as friendship. Even with platonic people. Kind of like how one could be somebody’s best friend, but they don’t see them as a best friend back.
do you think the label of friendship as something that has to be two-sided? how would you feel about others considering you a friend, even though they know you don’t consider anybody your friend/you aren’t interested in having friends due to being aplatonic (from what I know, please correct me if I’m wrong)
i agree w how peeps see friendship all different. there's also the thang w society really pushing friendship super hard so for me it's difficult to really understand friendship
i've seen peeps consider others they've only had 1 decent convo w friends while others can take yrs to consider sumbody a friend for example :P
also i'm fine w whateva other peeps wanna see me as as long as they don't try to make me reciprocate when i can't :D i know sum peeps consider me their friend & that's fine w moi :P
i only take issue when peeps expect me to be their friend back, luckily it doesn't happen very often anymore tho (btw random thing here but i lowkey think that expecting sumbody to be friends w chu bc of whateva reason is like. amatonormative & kinda a breach of consent??? i wish peeps would just ask "hey, are we friends?" instead of jumping to conclusions)
"so you think a careless crayon scribble on a piece of paper made by a human is worth more than the most beautiful of masterpieces made by an ai—" Yeah I do actually
It occurred to me today that if Terry Pratchett was still around, we'd have a brilliant book about AI by now.
They would build a new machine standing next to HEX and HEX would be... not jealous, of course, why would you think a machine would be jealous? But still HEX would randomly start responding to someone who would spend more time with that new machine.
I'm 100% positive that Dibbler would be mass-printing generated bad romance novels and selling them for profit. All of them would have titles like "A Necklace of Pearls and Flowers" or "A Menace of Dragons and Swords", depending on the audience.
People would buy dis-organisers with new features and the imps would give VASTLY inaccurate answers ("No, dragons don't breathe fire, this is a myth, you are safe!") that would put them in danger - and yet would still refuse to get rid of them. (Maybe Dibbler would sell those advanced dis-organisers, too, sounds like something for him.)
The Watch would have their hands full saving people from said danger. Vimes would never trust this new invention and would get extremely angry at anyone suggesting he bought one, too.
Dwarves would be very anxious because, as our dear Blackboard Monitor already knows, Words Are Important. And if those words come from gods know where, that's really bad. I can actually see the plot where they can actually team up with Blackboard Monitor to destroy those "machine" words at the end.
All that generated rubbish would put L-Space in the danger of collapsing. Because there are books that no one should have written.
This and William de Worde fighting against AI bullshit news
ABSOLUTELY. The Ankh-Morpork Inquirer would get absolutely wild with their stories and William would be getting literally insane pointing out the inconsistencies while people keep buying them.
remember that pride is still a protest
Pride is still a protest!
pupgender is just as much a serious gender as woman, mew/mews pronouns aren't less respectable than she/her or he/him, being stargender isn't any more "silly" or "frivolous" than being a man, being xenogender isn't the gender equivalent to playing with toys we ARE our genders no matter how playful with gender a xenogendered person is
Some Pride spirals! Enjoy~
