how could anybody hate a good bi?

the thing about media literacy is that understanding why the author chose to specify that the curtains are blue is the same skill set as understanding that the way the author characterizes all black characters as angry or all chinese characters as meek and silent is racist. it is the same skill set as being able to identify when a news source is biased or when someone is feeding you propaganda. the ability to ask "why did this person choose to present this premise in this specific way?" is a critical skill in a world full of misinformation. why are the curtains blue? maybe it's a characterization detail. maybe it's extraneous worldbuilding. why is this character written as being right all the time? maybe you're intended to disagree with them. maybe it doesn't matter. maybe you should still ask why.

sometimes people experiencing psychosis and/or mania will come up to you on the street and talk in confusing or upsetting ways. your job is to either have a regular human-to-human conversation with that person or politely leave. your job is not to call 911. do not call 911. you might kill that person if you call 911.

[wheelie-sick]

I don't even have the energy to screenshot and respond to your tags- what the actual fuck is wrong with you? "the cops are scared and rightfully so" "mental health calls are the scariest for cops" OH so this isn't about the safety of psychotic & manic people this is about piggy feelings?

and no, actually, this is not USA specific and no, actually, people from other countries should not ignore this post. police violence and sanism weren't invented in the US and they are certainly not unique to here. if you (or anyone) thinks that this bullshit doesn't happen elsewhere then you are not listening.

you literally cannot find a news story about domestic violence towards women or women being murdered bg their male partners without seeing multiple men in the comments saying some version of “oh well she wasn’t innocent either” or “what did she do to set him off, women always do something” like they hate us so so so fucking bad. electric chair to all of them idc

the concept and idea of “you can always start trying to be a better person” is extremely important to me both in media and irl and i continue to be deeply deeply disturbed by the trend on this site pushing that these ideas in media are bad writing or even morally reprehensible

because theyd rather someone stay terrible or just straight up die than become a better person 

from a compassionate point of view it’s deeply distressing and from a pragmatic point of view it’s outright frustrating

it’s fucked up.

I think part of the pushback about this is the idea that, to “redeem” bad people, their victims must first forgive them for unforgivable acts.

This is false. No one is obligated to forgive you. You can learn from your mistakes and become the best, kindest person on earth, and the people you’ve hurt still won’t forgive you, and you’ll have to accept that. And that doesn’t mean you aren’t allowed to grow. Because we aren’t just “pure” or “sinful”, we’re complex.

the horrific rape and beating of a 5 year old black girl has reached mainstream media and like clockwork people are already using her to spread radfem rhetoric and make advertiser friendly content on tiktok and instagram reels saying that she was “🍇’d”

instead of engaging with these pricks who are exploiting her trauma for personal gain, here’s how you can personally support both her and her mother:

Donate to JUSTICE FOR A’MARIE, organized by Antavia Kennibrew

On September 13, 2025, my daughter resided at a trusted family member's residence around the are… Antavia Kennibrew needs your support for J

this child needs as much support as she can possibly get. she is traumatized beyond belief and suicidal. again, she is merely 5 years old. please do whatever you can to remind her that she is loved and that her life matters.

EDIT:

there was some information i got incorrect in the original version of this post. she is NOT autistic. i should have done further research before claiming so. i sincerely apologize.

also, please do not reblog this post with tags wishing rape upon the children responsible for this. that should go without saying. wishing rape upon any child is genuinely disgusting behavior no matter who the child is or what they’ve done. you are not avenging victims or making survivors’ lives better by saying such things. encouraging sexual violence against kids for any reason is deplorable and ultimately continues the cycle of abuse. think before you speak.

I once signed up to participate in a study on how depression affects memory, forgot I was meant to go do it, and when I emailed to apologise to the PhD student running it she basically told me that a) she was very used to this happening and b) the weird irony of her theories’ correctness making it very difficult to arrange proving them had by now gone from infuriating to hysterical

I went to the Grand Canyon when I was depressed and I literally forgot the whole thing. Like, the only reason I even know I was there is that I have photographs of myself standing in front of the Grand Canyon with dead eyes but i have absolutely no memory of it

People talk about depression like it’s just being sad all the time but straight up your brain stops working and sadness is just one of the many, many consequences of that

Child killed after officer fires upon car following reported shoplifting at a Walmart in Mississippi: Police

The shooting occurred Sunday afternoon outside a Walmart in Senatobia, according to the Mississippi Bureau of Investigation.

literally yesterday. all because someone called the police about DIAPERS being shoplifted.

Black children deserve to live and be safe around ALL people, around the world but something so simple is routinely denied to us on the daily by people more concerned with making sure their group doesn’t become the next underclass in which the entire modern world operates on its dehumanization.

im so sorry to this baby, their family, and every Black family dealing with the horrors of antiblackness, having our freedom or lives stolen from us every day.

meanwhile, LAPD shot and killed a Black woman’s dog after being called by her neighbor for being “too loud” during the Knick’s game, one of the biggest basketball event in years.

i seen more comments by nonblack ppl showing sympathy for the dog than the Black woman in the video literally hugging her beloved pet’s dead body in tears while a mob of LAPD officers stand around and watch her dispassionately.

what the fuck.

not trying to dig into that anon but i do think its interesting and very unfortunate how historical concepts become decontextualized memes online. never forgetting that time grian titled a video 'manifest destiny' because he didnt know where the phrase came from. british boy no you cannot be saying that,

[this-is-trans-joy]

never letting anyone forget that “i believe everyone involved in this story should die” is not an innocent meme and is in fact the “joke” that was made on SNL in 1996 when reporting on the brutal rape and murder of trans man Brandon Teena.
