"Die Lage ist hoffnungslos aber nicht ernst" @manwhorewednesdays - Tumblr Blog

Welcome to this blog! 🌻

This is just an accumulation of things I find important or interesting. I rarely post, I usually just reblog. I might comment in the tags, but I do not use it as an organization tool. Naturally, there are no trigger warnings on individual posts!

I try my very best to share ideas and thoughts that are mindful and inclusive, queer friendly, anti-colonial, pro-self determination, and culturally sensitive. If you ever find me reblogging something fishy (like e.g. a news article from a questionable source), please reach out!

For my followers from Gaza: Due to a lot of traffic in my inbox I cannot read and reblog everything - but try to donate whenever my finances allow it! Please do share your gofundmes with me. I love you, and you are in my heart 💜

I will only give a general content warning here for mental health issues, C-PTSD, trauma, recovery from childhood abuse, discussions on homo- and transphobia, mentions of war/genocide, death, medical stuff, and occasional erotic/artistic nudity. It's totally fine if you unfollow/block if something I post frequently about is too much for you right now. Take care!

Ok. What you're gonna want to do is chop up a cucumber and put it in a bowl. Then you're gonna sprinkle a generous portion of salt on top. Then you're gonna drizzle them with a balsamic vinaigrette and gently shake to combine, leaving you with a cool and refreshing summer snack. In 15 seconds dangerous and burly men are going to drag me away to an unknown second location. Remember everything I've taught you. I love you

i honestly don't really understand why "some people prefer watching gameplay online rather than playing games themselves" is treated as such a taboo when being a spectator is considered a pretty mundane way to engage with most sports, game shows, reality tv or even just like. chess.

Having experienced a lot of it in my 20s, I think some of the worst, pettiest, most straight up this-is-just-bullying-you're-passing-off-as-praxis incidences of Queer Infighting endemic to young people can be best understood as attempts to exercise power by people with very little power.

Like you're 22, you're queer, you've just become a Marxist, the scope of World Suck is overwhelming and you have $30 in your bank account. What can you do to feel like you have any power? Well, you can try to get your frenemy cancelled for cosplaying a character from a problematic show. You can write a public callout post over someone's obviously friendly use of a slur you don't think they technically have the right to reclaim. Doing this stuff can make you feel like you have power and your actions have an impact. Unfortunately the impact in question is a negative impact on other marginalized people. But that often takes some maturity and self-reflection to notice.

I'm reminded of this post from 2017. To paraphrase, OP took part in community service via their university and part of that was cleaning the bathrooms at the local homeless community centre, which would frequently get trashed, not because the homeless people using them disrespected the work of the people cleaning them but because they had so little control over other things that happened in their lives, and the bathroom was something they could affect.

This, too, is a trashed bathroom; young queer people living through hell and having precious little control over their circumstances or the world in which they exist can affect something by using the language of social justice as a cudgel on their would-be allies, as well as getting a brief feeling of power over someone else by doing it.

It's not worth it. Don't trash your community bathrooms.

it exists to divide the working class. All labour is skilled labour. Yes including that one. Yes, including that one too.

Do you know what's unskilled labour? Owning capital. There's no labour involved, thus requires no skill. And you can tell because people can be born into owning capital.

today i learned that the finnish word for ‘hazardous waste’ is ongelmajäte, which can also translate as ‘problematic garbage’ and my roommate and i immediately agreed this is a word that belongs on tumblr.
