No no no because Sigrun DIED because she was a duster. She DIED because of it. Poverty killed Sigrun. She is a walking corpse killed by a society that didn't give a shit about her until she died for it. God I'm OBSESSED with her dialogue with Nathaniel about this!!!

hey, just fyi, you got marked red on shinigami eyes sometime in the last day-ish

I figured it would happen sooner or later, thanks for the heads up.

Reminder to people that follow me that the people who run shinigami eyes are anti-transmasculine, intersexist and exorsexist and the people of these groups get marked red for advocating for themselves as a silencing tactic. It is actively being used as a tool to sow mistrust towards what they perceive as the "wrong kind" of queer people.

I'll probably make a real post about it later giving sources as to why that is but if you look at their guidelines it's pretty apparent what their views are.

I got marked red recently and I saw someone sending an ask to another blog tellling them not to reblog from me because I’ve been critical of Shinigami eyes, and therefore that makes me transphobic. So here’s a good reminder to anyone new to my blog.

Shinigami eyes has so far proven itself to be a biased extension that is unjustifiably targeting transmasc, intersex and non-binary blogs speaking out about our experiences and using our own terminology for it.

[hi-fi-planetoid]

So I didn't end up making a separate post about it but I did write up a more comprehensive explanation in the replies that I'll just reiterate in this reblog with screenshots of the guidelines to add further context.

Putting it under a read more so this post doesn't get too long.

Shinigami eyes is a browser extension that was originally intended to flag people who spread transphobia. If they get flagged they get marked red and if they are known to spread positivity they're marked green.

It still claims to do that, however, under the guidelines, it's very clear that the creators of shinigami eyes have a radical feminist and gender policing outlook. Which pretty much renders it useless as people just end up flagging people who are trans and vocally supportive of trans and intersex people, but trans in a way they don't like or being inclusive in a way they don't agree with. Those false flags are then not mitigated by the people running it, and based on their guidelines, it is clear they do not care or actively agree with the people that false flag in this way.

Below are things stated in their guidelines that indicate their views that have been there for at least a year since I first saw it: (when there have plenty of complaints from the community saying there have been false flags and plenty negative reviews on the extension communicating that it's ignoring/harming more than half of the community).

Calling AFAB trans women a "bad faith identity" is gender policing. It asserts that someone would live their life identifying as something just to fool and harm people. Which is baseline transphobic rhetoric that conservative bigots use against us every day. It asserts that a person is wrong about their own identity and is not allowed to use the words in our current vernacular to express their experience. It may not be the best wording to express it, but for some people, this is their experience and how they feel best describes it. It asserts that there's one way to be a trans woman and that is to have been AMAB and to "transition away from manhood", which is intersexist, exorsexist, and in fact transmisogynistic to trans women who do fall outside of that narrow definition. Trying to narrow the definition of womanhood is a very radfem mentality. Not to mention describing an identity that is commonly used by intersex people as "making actual transphobia harder to discuss" is obviously a horrible thing to say.

Additionally, they have more grace for conservatives, aphobes, and swerfs per their guidelines than they do people who identify as AFAB transfems.

This has resulted in several intersex, multigender and bigender trans women being harassed and ostracized from their communities. I've even seen two spirit people be chased off the internet with this mindset.

Their guidelines also stated that "theyfab" is not a slur and is not grounds for marking someone red for using, despite it being a term that attacks trans people's identities and reduces them to an assumed set of genitalia. Pretty obviously transphobic to me. Additionally defending the use of tenderqueer, which has pretty much always been used pejoratively against nonbinary people. They claim to be nonbinary friendly, but this outlook on slurs made to be directed towards nonbinary people minimizes the bigotry that nonbinary people face.

Describing them as "mean words that are used to communicate issues within the trans community" is an exorsexist transphobic mindset that has been used as an excuse to throw pejorative words which inherently attack the identities of nonbinary people. Generally the people using these slurs to "call out intercommunity issues" have been using it to describe people who "weaponize afab privilege". The concept of "afab privilege" is rooted in misogyny, exorsexism and intersexism and racism. The assertion is that nonbinary and intersex people AFAB "escape into their assigned gender to avoid culpability in their actions" with the idea that having been AFAB grants inherent protections. This is obviously false and transphobic.

Anyway, so people use the extension who don't know this and assume that the judgement of the moderators is across the board trans friendly, when it's very transphobic to parts of the trans community and bigoted towards the intersex community; who have been very vocal about these things harming them. Continuing to allow the extension to be used like this without criticism allows for these mindsets to spread and silences people who are only talking about their own experiences and expressing their identities.

when i was 13 i made up a group of ocs who were gifted the ability to teleport but with caveats that made it really irritating for them and everyone else. i can’t remember all of them but two. one of them could only pass from place to place through water. they could jump into something as small as a cup of tea and come out the other side through a puddle or something but notably they did get wet. so any time they teleported anywhere they arrived soaking wet. they had to go everywhere with a waterproof paddling bag as a purse. the other could only teleport between occupied bathrooms. any bathroom in the world was fine but it had to be in use. they could just ask a friend to go in first and cheat it that way but in an emergency they’d just have to barge in on someone with their eyes closed and yell “SORRY! SORRY!” and disappear immediately from existence.

my cat is completely obsessed with watching the bathroom sink drain and I have started calling this "her shows." as in when I'm in the bathroom and she meows and runs up I'll be like "oh you want to watch your shows?" and run the faucet for an extra few seconds so it fills a little. she will then sit there at the edge of the sink for ages totally entraptured by the drain. blorbo from her sink

pros of an original setting: you're not constrained by the politics, geography, history, or even physics of the real world even a little bit

cons of an original setting: you have to Name Everything now. Good luck!
