Other

Remaining time: 6 days 6 hours

Having been named after a character in The Great Gatsby by my English-major dad, I thought I would ask about this.

Unironically I think the early to mid 20s age group in America has unbelievably bad consent boundaries on all levels and so much language to defend it but this makes me sound like elon musk if I say it however the commonality of someone who will be like “I had 47 panic attacks and it’s your fault” if you tell them no is insane

[junglejim4322]

I rejected someone and got called “the scariest person I’ve ever met” with so much therapy speak interspersed like alright okay alright okay alright okay

[junglejim4322]

“You just say whatever you’re thinking and I don’t know how to handle it” was verbatim part of this conversation. Also everyone hates to see an autistic bitch

[transhumanisticpanspermia]

When I was in this age bracket, there was a huge emphasis on improving consent culture via graceful rejection, and it's gone by the wayside. Which sucks.

Twice in my youth (once in high school and once in college) I was in situations where I was asking someone out and I could tell they were calculating in their heads the risks of rejecting me, and both times I said, out loud, "you can say no, I wouldn't have asked if I wasn't prepared for either answer." And then they said no. This wasn't some spark of special wisdom I had - I knew to do it because feminist conversations among my age group brought it up regularly. This isn't happening nearly enough anymore.

More recently, I was really glad when we got to "rejection sensitive dysphoria" in my IOP program and it was one of those symptoms where the therapists really emphasized how it affects others. Because it does.

Being someone who cannot handle rejection makes you much more likely to violate boundaries, and yes, that includes sexual ones. Yes, you, reader who has never hurt a fly. If you don't want to stumble backwards into sexually assaulting someone, fix your RSD meltdowns. If you keep them up it's only a matter of time. Because if you're nice enough to interact with, but are known to have RSD meltdowns, guess what happens when your friends and acquaintances need to reject you?

"Friend" is an AI wearable device designed to provide "companionship + emotional support"— i.e replace human friendships. Its literally an AI chatbot that you wear around your neck. "Friend" just paid for the largest ad campaign in NYC subway history

And Every. Single. Poster was vandalised, it literally looks like some of the most beautiful art you have ever seen

Art request for @riggedforsuccess ! They're coming up with ideas for a new M&W campaign :]

I’m still so mad at the lumbee situation. One of the Shawnee chiefs spoke out against it and watching the discussion is so fucking stupid because they tried to levy support from the eastern band of Cherokee before the eastern band LITERALLT said “yeah no these people arent native”

No discernible culture or history or stories or language. Members taking dna tests and anecdotally finding out they’re not native at all. I’m so sick of this fucking system

No tags bc I don’t want anyone to see this and be mad with me. I’ll make a bigger unpacking later.

250 years and most native tribal groups continue to not be federally recognized. Embarrassing!

[cowboyhatesithere]

Hey so a small thing that literally everyone who sees this is capable of is correcting any “used to” statements about native people in this country.

“Native people used to live in this National Park” No. They still do.

“Native people used to tell these stories-” No. They still do.

“Native people used to use this plant as a natural remedy-” No. They still do.

Better yet, familiarize yourself with the tribes local to you. Odds are, they do not yet have federal recognition. You can still read the stories they have to share, you can share their ongoing battle for recognition with others, you can sign petitions and spread the word to others to do so as well. But do something.

so real

[dumbass-transboy]

Hey remember when everyone was panicking about everyone taking estrogen HRT being put on a registry and that same law making it illegal to import estrogen from overseas and a felony to DIY? Remember when everyone was rightfully horrified about how inaccessible this would make transitioning to transfem people?

Trans men on testosterone HRT are on a registry because testosterone is a controlled substance. It is illegal to import testosterone from overseas and it is a felony to DIY with it. Still, the same people who were panicking over this law for transfems will belittle and bully transgender men who do not DIY or are rightfully afraid of it.
