Sleep well Marjane Satrapi. You were a huge influence on me and my work in a way that cannot be understated. You will be missed but your work will carry on for generations to come

in general i think it's kind of worse than useless to always fall back on this assumption that people are being "tricked" into being mras or twerfs or white supremacists or usamerican jingoists etc. etc. when you can ask the question "how do they stand to materially benefit from this hate movement" and 9/10 times find a very easy answer

transmisogynoir is DEEPLY engrained in the trans community. stop pretending otherwise. holy fuck

[transsexual-feminism]

This is transfeminism!

“everyone is mad at me and they just won’t tell me” —> “no one has said anything about being mad at me and i haven’t done anything to warrant being mad at so if someone is silently fuming about me and not saying anything that’s their problem and actually quite weird of them and i can effortlessly move on with my life”

[cheaphalloweencostume]

this took SUCH a huge deal of unlearning because, like so many of you, i came out of a home where being quietly in trouble WAS the default state, and i DID grow up not just with the assumption but borderline religious conviction that Everyone Is Mad At Me, I Am Bad, I Must Exist In A Constant State of Attempting to Pacify The Natural Rage I Inspire In Everyone. and no it actually turns out that my family are the freaks . and yours are too

[cheaphalloweencostume]

“this isn’t true because i DEFINITELY silently fume at people in the hopes they’ll figure out what they did and apologize” that’s not good. you shouldn’t do that

“this isn’t true because the ex-friendship that traumatized me ended explosively after they were mad at me and never told me why” that’s not good. they shouldn’t be doing that

“i don’t think this is true because my current friend group is constantly icing me out until i figure out what ive done to upset them and properly apologized without being told” hey thats not good. they should not be doing that

if the peacefulness of your relationship with someone (familial, romantic, friendly, anything) can be destroyed by effective communication/asking them for effective communication, you have got to get out of there. if you can’t get out of there, you’ve got to throw away any ideas about what that person thinks of you because they have their own shit to figure out before they can accurately read anyone else

[lakemojave]

People are unfazed if you hate women but if you dislike dogs they assume you're a bad person

[lakemojave]

Tumblr users will read a post complaining about normalized misogyny and hyperfocus on your claim that it's ok to dislike dogs

saneism is deeply tied with white supremacy and antiBlackness. you cant unravel saneism without first abolishing antiBlackness and white supremacy. Blackness has long been the basis of saneism- one of the first described mental illnesses was "drapetomania," which labeled the desire for enslaved Black people to be free as a disorder.

[wheelie-sick]

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.

pewdiepie was one of the harbingers of the alt right internet apocalypse i hate that skinny white man with all my heart

[you-d-prefer-an-astronaut]

I blame him (at least partially) for the rise in anti-indian racism in the late 2010s to today and people look at me like I'm the friend who's too woke when I say that. But it's true

[probuccalfat]

and you’d be right to blame him. he normalized the rise in anti-indian and anti-desi racism through “jokes.” it took me forever to take pride in my indian heritage bc of the culture he helped set up.

This Pride, make sure every trans woman that you follow, are mutuals with, goon over, or consume their work in general, has a roof over their head, their bills paid, and food in their kitchens.

You wanna call yourselves allies? This is the work. Do it.

primarily saving up for much-needed dental work being partly funded by my low retail paycheck, on top of keeping up with food costs, my phone bill, my dog's food/health, and my car's upkeep (my lifeline for work that's a 2006 model; i.e. very old and well over 100k miles, and also likes to make sudden noises)

This is the most comprehensive and impressive resource I've ever watched on transphobia. I think this is an especially important video for cis people to watch. The video is accessible and meant to be an educational tool for people who are confused by what the hell is going on right now. Every possible question you could have on trans issues is addressed in this video.

This pride month, if you want to help combat transphobia from your coworkers, friends, family, and so on, this is a very good educational resource to help you understand every aspect of transphobic rhetoric, policies, legislation, history - everything. It was made by a cis guy who drove himself crazy trying to figure out why everyone hates trans people, to the point that he dropped out of university to make this video. Given the global state of increasing anti-trans violence, I really strongly urge cis people to watch this video in full. It is an incredibly valuable resource and I cannot recommend watching it strongly enough.

Life for trans people is only becoming more horrifying, and I genuinely appreciate and respect every cis person who takes the time to watch this video, educate themselves, and understand the many fights ahead.
