idk why people are still trying to do "hear me out"s on tumblr

you could talk about wanting to fuck the space needle on here and people would still call you a poser for insisting on fucking "conventionally attractive architecture" as if that's a coherent, easily-recognizable category

[charlesoberonn]

I want to fuck Antoni Gaudi's unbuilt Hotel Attraction skyscraper design

"hear me out" and it's a picture of the most fuckable building you've ever seen. c'mon now.

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.

People with EDS, I need advice: what are your fixes for foot pain? I’ve recently started working full-time again at a job where I have to stand for hours on end, and it causes my feet to hurt so bad I feel nauseous and swell around the joints. I normally use a cane to help me walk/stand for longer, but my job requires the use of both hands so I have to set it aside. Are there any things you’ve used to help your feet hurt even a little less? I’m desperate lol.

If the trash pickup people stop doing their job for two weeks you'd be throwing a fucking tantrum. Same for the janitors who keep your office spaces and bathrooms clean. (And that's before the various illnesses start to spread all over your city from the build up of pathogens.)

The people responsible keeping our spaces clean (and thus, mostly disease-free) should both be paid more AND thanked more.

I don’t consider myself a member of the church at all anymore but I’m still watching General conference with my family, and my god do some of the themes of this talk upset me. Pushing people to give up their cultural traditions because they don’t conform to the western expectations that built the church is awful.

Cave divers are our bravest, most useless soldiers

[fivetrench]

But without cave divers, who would rescue all the stuck cave divers?

[pukicho]

Every cave dive rescue operation involves a second, even more stuck cave diver.

Okay those deer knew war, but most don't

[mossgrown-ribcage]

To be fair, you did specify peaceful deer. These deer seem pretty not-peaceful

There are two wolves inside of me. One is acknowledging that no one is inherently bad due to their gender and we need to leave bioessentialism behind. The other is seeing what men inflict on women in the world and going I AM SO SICK OF MEN I HATE THEM I HATE MEN SO MUCH. How do I escape this prison. Advice needed

I am once again asking tumblr to stop passing around posts that talk about the LDS (mormon) church like it's this shifty, nefarious cult acting as an agent in the destruction of the world as we know it. I am once again asking tumblr to consider that learning about a religion from only its worst members and those who have left and now sensationalize the religion for clout may not give you a good insight into what the beliefs actually are. I am once again asking tumblr to stop presenting very old, no longer practiced doctrine as current, widely-agreed upon belief. I am once again asking tumblr to stop painting a religion of millions of people worldwide with a ridiculously broad brush. I am once again asking tumblr to stop taking the words of leaders of a church as an indication of what everyone else in the religion believes. I am once again asking tumblr to stop ignoring the people within and outside of the church that aren't actively trying to tear it down. I am once again asking tumblr to stop ignoring the queer people, leftist people, disabled people, gender expansive people, people of color, etc who are bringing nuanced perspectives on religion beyond "hrrrrr cult scary hrrrr magic underwear hrrrrrrr mormons bad >:( " I am once again asking tumblr to stop with the rhetoric that you cannot be queer and religious. I am once again asking tumblr to realize that mormonism is a religion not just practiced by the LDS church, and that there is a vast plethora of beliefs, doctrines, opinions and experiences to be heard than some white exLDS from suburbia. I am once again asking tumblr to allow those with firsthand experience (members and former members) of the LDS church and other Mormon churches to lead discussions about both flaws AND strengths of the religion, rather than letting some very angry tumblr users condense over 200 years of history and doctrine into one flaming post. I am once again asking tumblr to consider that every single thing about the LDS church that makes you mad is something that members and former members of the church are already!!!!! talking about!!!!!!! you are NOT bringing anything new to this conversation, you are just making noise that makes it harder for us to have nuanced discussions about these things.

I am once again asking tumblr to think critically for a moment about how they are talking about this religion and how easily they are being swayed into black and white thinking. I am once again asking tumblr to consider how quick they are to decide they hate an entire religious group. I am once again asking tumblr to shut the fuck up about shit they don't understand xoxo

some white exLDS from suburbia <3

For real, I constantly get told that I’m “trapped in a cult” and that I “can’t be LDS and queer,” and that I’ll be “happier when I leave.”

They always say when, not if. Like it’s not even my decision- it’s inevitable that I’ll leave. It makes me so angry to see people who don’t even understand my perspective trying to yank me out of my religious beliefs. Have I no mind of my own? Have I no agency, because I’m a part of a widely misunderstood church?

[mossgrown-ribcage]

Seeing this post again because someone liked it is extremely funny to me because I am in fact ex Mormon now LMAO
