at the end of the day it's about entitlement. AI for fanwork, getting mad at not getting a smuch content as you want, that's all entitlement. they have no respect for the artists and writers who put that piece of media in front of them in the first place. they don't even register it as having even been made by another person.

[hiveswap]

look at me. every brushstroke in every artwork you've ever seen was made on purpose, one by one, with intention, by someone who spent hours on it. none of it sprouted on trees. Imitating it with a machine because you want more is flat out disrespectful. It shows that you don't really care about the work, you just want to see those specific visuals no matter what. You're like a baby being shown sensory videos.

Shout out to trans women who aren't computer scientists or musicians or avant-garde artists or whatever.

Shout-out to tgirls who work at Taco Bell. Thank u queen, society would collapse without you

[snkrfnd]

Over twenty years ago my big brother got me a job at a Taco Bell in the St. Louis suburbs-West County. He warned me that it was the "gay Taco Bell", but since I was coming from the "gay Howard Johnson's" I wasn't shocked. It turns out it was the black trans women Taco Bell complete with black trans women in management. And they'd worked out an arrangement with the local teen Narcotics Anonymous group so that twice a week we would shut down the drive thru and the dining room and exclusively serve 60+ teens in various stages of recovery. And many of the women I worked with were in various stages of being out or transitioning and they were from all generations from teens to over 50. One woman I worked with had a regular corporate job presenting as a man 9-5 Mon-Fri and then came to Taco Bell and worked 6pm -2am Friday and Saturday night so she could be herself surrounded by other black transwomen in those stolen weekends. And we had customers come from all over the metro area because they knew they could be themselves in the dining room. I only worked there from 1999-2001 but for young me, this was a vital, formative experience. Some of the girls came from north city all the way out to the "gay Taco Bell" on Manchester in west county because they heard it was safe to work there. Like- I know times have changed but they haven't changed much in 20 years. I'm still convinced that for lgbt youth, finding a job at your city's version of the "gay Taco Bell" is key to survival.

when people defend the “Cis white guy is default” thing like “He’s meant to be an everyman we can all relate to and project on!” kindly remind them the largest ethnic group in the WORLD is Han Chinese and the highest gender percentage fluctuates so if you want an ACTUAL  “default” you want a 40 year old chinese person whose gender changes from year to year.

Listen I get it but you CANNOT use "sensory nightmare" as an excuse to avoid essential things. You HAVE to find a way to make it work, such as finding effective alternatives. But you can't just avoid it.

You need to eat some vegetables in your diet or you will become a lich.

You have to wear a life jacket or you will literally drown and die.

You need to be able to exist in public spaces with children.

You have to find a way.

Hey, you, trans guy. You’re allowed to be gay btw. You don’t have to be attracted to women to be a "real man". You’re not a "confused cishet girl" because you’re attracted to men. You’re not "conversion therapy" for "real gay men". You’re not faking being trans "for attention". Your attraction to men doesn’t make you any less of a man.

The goes doubly so for trans men who are, especially exclusively or mainly, attracted to other trans men. Anyone who uses your attraction to trans men as "proof" that you must also be, or actually are, attracted to women is just showing their whole transphobic ass by implying, or outright stating, that trans men are "basically women" or a type of women. Which should just tell you that you can throw out all their opinions on trans men from the get-go.

Putting the term "Catholic guilt" on a high shelf where fandom can't reach it until everyone learns how to identify characters who are very very clearly coded as Protestant.

i think one of the best parts about being a teenager in the early to mid 2010s was that cigarettes were definitely not cool anymore and vapes hadn’t popularized yet so my lungs made it out of my peak impressionable years relatively unscathed
