Why Are Libfems… like she almost got the point, but because of sex posi bullshit she spun it the wrong way. It’s SAD that so many women in kink/BDSM are trying to use it as a bandaid coping mechanism for trauma. It’s sad that the men involved in that scene prey upon women they know are vulnerable. It’s not badass by any means. Hypersexuality as a response to trauma shouldn’t be romanticized.

Here is a video on re-victimization from the sex positivity guru herself. She actually does a good job talking about the topic dispite not recognizing how BDSM is abuse and encourages re-victimization:

Imagine if we treated any other form of trauma like this.

Are you traumatized by being beaten by your alcoholic father when you were a child? Have you tried asking your partner or a friend to get drunk and beat you, so that you can finally be in control of your life and fully recover?

Are you traumatized by spending time in a war zone? Have you tried asking your friends to explode a bunch of shit around you and pretend to be dead so that you can experience the healing powers of consent?

Experienced enslavement and suffering trauma as a consequence? Why not become someone’s human pet and let them lead you around on a leash and make you eat out of a dog bowl and do all their house chores? Don’t you know how liberated and free it will make you feel, to be willingly objectified and subjugated?

Like?

People just say this shit. There are no studies to back it, no logic to support it.

Yet here we are.

every time i scroll past this i read the first line of the tweet and go yeah, we should look into the connection between males who are into fucked up things and rapists. and then i read the rest of it.

This is Doris Pollas, the cofounder of the organisation now known as lgbt+ Denmark which by being founded in 1948 is one of the oldest ongoing queer organisation in the world.

Doris lived in a farm in Jutland as a child. She was always butch and figured out she was a lesbian in her teens. When she heard about a club in copenhagen where boys kissed boys and girls kissed girls she went just some months after and it was through that club she started a paper connecting queer people all up to seventies and co founded lgbt+ Denmark.

She is now 97 years old and wishes for every queer person to have an as loving and accepting family as she did.

I don’t see a lot of older gays from my country, so learning about Doris, a masc lesbian, was really nice.

Doris passed ways last summer, aged 101. Here’s the obituary LGBT+ Danmark wrote for her - in English

I want to go to bed but Boo is cuddling me.

My Mushi Boo has rules when it comes to snuggles. I must not stop reading. I must not reach out to pet him. Because it's just a coincidence he's pressed up against my side. And it's certainly not because he wants cuddles. If I acknowledge him he'll stop.

Lady Pamela Hicks (the Queen's former lady-in-waiting) passed away today at the age of 97.. May they both rest in peace 🕊️

You won’t find this pigeon on the streets of New York City. Meet the Pink-necked Green Pigeon (Treron vernans)! This colorful bird can be found throughout Southeast Asia, where it inhabits forests. It hangs out in small flocks in the treetops, foraging mainly for fruit. Distinguishing males from females isn’t too difficult: Females lack pink necks and are mostly olive-green in color!

love the idea that "vote blue no matter who" excluding misogynists and nazis is some sort of hypocrisy or betrayal of principles, lmao. i'm very comfortable drawing the line there personally! i don't want to include those people in "blue", why do you?

Ended up playing grim dawn this evening with Ian.

We last played it several years ago before his motherboard died and we were down to one computer.

He played on the steam deck and I played on our only computer and it went well.

Had a lot of fun destroying hoards of the undead by raising skeletons to do the fighting for me.

I also like how similar the soundtrack is to Diablo 2, a game that will also be in my top 10.

The core conceit of Lord of the Rings is pretty funny. You are a twenty three year old in a suburb of Maine. The little bracelet in your grandpa’s attic has an inscription on it that is the password to the world’s entire nuclear arsenal. It is up to you to walk to the only hydraulic press in the world, located in Arizona, before the FBI finds the bracelet, kills you, and enslaves the suburb of Maine you currently live in

Watching pro-choice principles leave people's bodies when a couple aborts a fetus with Down syndrome.

[kizunatallis]

Everyone who virtue signals about how people with Downs are the sweetest angels and whatnot have not actually dealt with people with Downs for a significant length of time, not seen the less glamorous inspiration porn parts of the disorder, and have only seen the "high functioning" cases at best.

[afurioushawk]

And you can't even make autism comparisons, Downs comes with a lot of other health concerns, including heart surgeries that are required during childhood. And even then, a lot of them don't make it to adulthood.

And even if they didn't have all those other complications, a couple - especially the woman - is well within their rights to say, "I can't commit to raising a child like that and don't want to put them through that" and abort it.

But I'm learning that a lot of Republicans and leftists alike would totally adopt a Down syndrome baby, but just don't for some reason.

[rosesonkittens]

If I suddenly got pregnant (been trying for years with no luck so I assume I'm infertile) I don't know what I would do in this situation.

I don't judge any parent who does have an abortion when they find out about serious birth defects.

One of my best friends growing up had two twin brothers who both had severe birth defects. One was mentally 2 and one was mentally 5 despite being physically 12. My friend was expected as the oldest daughter to tend and care for them at almost all times. Even as they became bigger and more difficult for her to pick up out of special cribs etc.

Another person I knew had downs. He was older than me by ten years and yet mentally he couldn't take care of himself. He could barely manage his job at the grocery store. His parents were good friends to my parents and he died at just 20 from complications that killed him.

Another friend of mine has a sibling in a care home for adults with disabilities who she visits daily but can't take care of due to both their size and temperament. They have tantrums like a toddler while being physically a fully grown adult.

And the idea of being a parent to a child forever trapped in a mental state that leaves them like a toddler forever is terrifying. What kind of life is that?

I would definitely be considering various things while deciding what to do. Quality of life is a perfectly good reason to choose abortion.

I'm pro choice because I believe everyone deserves the chance to make an informed decision. Women deserve to choose if they want to risk their lives to bring a life into this world. And if they want to weigh quality of life into the equation it's not for anyone else to judge.

so the thing is democrats need women to win. the people pushing shitty candidates in the hope they'll appeal to disaffected men (which, way more insulting than some feminist joking about, like, bald dudes btw, but wtv) desperately wish this was not so. but it is. women have to be on your guy's side. you can't say 'but trump' or 'but paxton' bc republicans do not rely on female voters to the same extent and are generally horribler, and no, you will not make up the gap with guys who usually vote republican bc they're not even paying attention to your guy except to mock him. so you do need the women.
