when will sees jonathan again he should be allowed to shake him like a bobblehead toy. the shape shifting thing is a little TOO out there!!!

The mental image was too funny, i had to draw it. THIS IS NOT CANON IN MY FIC BTW just a cute au for an au, i guess😼

One reason why i'm not sure if Jonathan x Nancy is gonna happen in my fic. If you thought Will hates humans, you haven't met his brother. Jonathan is REALLY bad and i don't know how realistic it would be for him to ever fall in love with a human. Maybe if this was a jancy fic, but the focus will definitely remain on byler, so i don't think i'll take the time to explore ANOTHER enemies to lovers dynamic lmao😿

Anyways i'm writing, i promise, i promise

imo the way you feel about groups it's fully socially acceptable to hate (like children or polyamorous people, among others) is the canary in the coal mine for underlying bigoted beliefs. if you're only supportive of marginalized groups when it's cool to do so, probably you don't actually care about marginalized groups, you care about other people thinking you care

[deaddogbrain]

there are 1 trillion people in the notes of this post saying "yeah! i mean i hate kids but they should have rights!" you hate kids? you mean you hate all members of an oppressed group solely for their membership in this group? right. why do you hate them? because they can't take care of themselves and need help? because they don't understand social norms and can be "annoying" and disrespect boundaries as a result? because they can be messy? because they don't understand things in the same way as you do? that's awesome. how do you feel about disabled people btw

If at all possible, when you have an issue with someone, whether they're a neighbor, classmate, co-worker, if you feel safe doing so it's always more considerate to try taking up any issues with someone directly before reporting them to any authority figure.

For example, if your neighbor has their TV or music turned up way too loud way too late at night, it's more considerate to go knock on their door and politely ask them to turn it down rather than immediately reporting them to housing authority or calling the cops on them for a noise violation.

Or say your co-worker forgot to fill out a form for something they're supposed to fill out a form for. It's more considerate to talk to them directly and politely remind them, rather than immediately going to your manager and reporting them the first time you notice they didn't fill out the form.

We're all human and we all make mistakes, and we all deserve some grace for our mistakes rather than immediately getting in trouble with authority and/or management. Some people lose track of time and don't realize how loud their T.V. and/or stereo is, and feel bad if a neighbor brings it to their attention how loud it is, and they will feel grateful if you just talk to them instead of immediately trying to get them in trouble.

Maybe someone had to show up to work on only 2 hours of sleep, or is going through a rough patch in their personal life, or is struggling with a disorder like ADHD, and as a result made a careless mistake at work like forgetting to fill out that form. They will appreciate it if you just politely talk to them rather than getting them in trouble with management.

You've probably made careless mistakes yourself, like not realizing how loud you were being, or making a careless error at work. Would you rather someone shows you some grace by just talking to you, or immediately tries to get you in trouble for it?

Of course this is about mistakes that can be solved by just talking to someone. This doesn't necessarily apply to situations where someone is really out of line, or makes you feel unsafe. Say a co-worker keeps harassing you and calling you derogatory slurs, and it's really obvious that they know how hurtful and out of line what they're saying is. In that case by all means, just go straight to management and/or HR.

But otherwise, if they're likely just making an honest mistake with no malicious intentions (like forgetting to fill out a form or accidentally being too loud) why get them in trouble and do something that might risk something like their job, or something else important, when you can just talk to them like a person?

"Opposing genocide isn't antisemitic," while technically being a true statement, implies that you have said "I oppose genocide" to which Jews have said "That is antisemitic." It is making a link between Jewish concern about antisemitism and support for genocide. Regardless of whether you think Israel's conduct in the Gaza Strip meets the threshold for genocide, you are implicitly encouraging your peers to connect Jews/Judaism with genocide. So, antisemitic

[thatjewishteen]

"opposing genocide isnt antisemitic" has the same vibes as "opposing terrorism isnt islamophobic" and "opposing child predators isnt homophobic" in this essay i will

[infiniteglitterfall]

It's also specifically a response to Jews calling out antisemitism in the first place.

Literally the only context in which that word salad of a sentence would occur is if you're talking about Israel in some way and someone says, "no, that's antisemitic."

It's an impressive move, because we already had "antizionism isn't antisemitism!"

And sure, that's an INCREDIBLY ridiculous statement. Like, OMG?! ALERT THE PRESS, THERE'S AN ENTIRE TOPIC YOU CAN TALK ABOUT WITHOUT EVER RISKING SAYING SOMETHING ANTISEMITIC??? Is antizionism also inherently never racist, misogynist, Islamophobic, ableist, etc?! YOU'VE SOLVED OPPRESSION!!!

But since everybody was pretending it WASN'T a ridiculous statement, there was no real need to take it to the next level. By rephrasing it to imply that the only reason anyone would ever accuse you of hating Jews was that you oppose genocide.

The true fucking BEAUTY of this move is that it is wildly antisemitic to genuinely believe there's a specifically Jewish movement in favor of genocide.

Like, yeah, THAT'S what the history of the past 200 years have shown us. Jews COMMIT genocide. Jews just loooove a good genocide.

It's so poetic and sad that they would do to others what was just done to them!

Sure, they haven't enslaved 26,000,000 people, or any people at all. They haven't built industrial death factories. They haven't killed 41% of the Palestinians on earth, or 66% of the people of Palestine. They haven't developed a massive propaganda system telling the world that Palestinians are the cause of all its problems. They haven't stripped Palestinian Israelis of their citizenship, their businesses, their jobs, or their bank accounts.

It's extremely antisemitic to erase the entire Holocaust, or claim that Jews are actually doing any of the above because "they're the real Nazis."

Defending themselves by huffily saying, "you just think I'm biased against Jews because I oppose genocide," is kind of an evil genius move.

[womanenjoyer]

like at least 50% of internet lgbt discourse would evaporate if people quit using the term "spaces" when they mean "discord servers" or "tumblr blogs" because we would collectively realize how stupid that shit is

[otabekisautistic]

“this is a lesbian-only space” no this is the tiktok comments on a chappell roan video

[themainspoon]

Lowkey I'm rapidly running out of patience for "Queer Spaces" as a concept. The entire thing fundamentally seems to require the creation of outsiders and others, discrete categories of who does and does not belong that can be used to police borders (both in a figurative sense, but as we see in the case of certain transmisogynistic queer women's events [for example], sometimes also literally).

So much shitty discourse (whether it be people trying to drop letters from acronyms, [typically the T, but also sometimes the B, even if not to the same extent], debates about A-spec people, Bi lesbians, people who use atypical pronouns [whether that be neo-, or something like "he/him lesbians"] heterosexual trans people, etc etc) is just this process, people trying to define themselves and their group against constructed others and then feeling threatened when those barriers are in fact perminable.

To be honest, I'm a little sick of it. Especially in an online context where we're literally talking about discord servers, Tumblr tags, and comment sections. Why are we carrying out this process of othering and exclusion? Why are we trying to police digital borders? Who gives a fuck?

[tuulikki]

I think that, at some fundamental level, any act of inclusion always excludes others. Sometimes that can be by design. But we have to be conscious of that.

This is really clear in how poorly defined “safe spaces” are. A safe space for people who want to talk freely will exclude people who feel unsafe hearing opinions they don’t agree with.

And then meanwhile let’s also stop using “[descriptor] spaces” or “community” as synonymous with “friend group” or “people I like.”

Hey if you’re schizophrenic/psychotic I just want you to know that you’re a wonderful person and that you deserve so much better than the demonization, marginalization and stigmatization you face in this society.

[sweetschizo-deactivated20190808]

Please consider reblogging this/other positivity posts for schizophrenic/psychotic people every once in a while. If you have more than 100 followers, odds are that a couple of them experiences psychosis and that they rarely see positivity posts for people with their symptoms.

[homunculus-argument]

I don't even know whose job it was to teach people this, but did they just stop teaching people what a bicycle bell means?

One would think that hearing a very distinct, clearly audible, reasonably loud and rapidly approaching sound of any kind would make any reasonable mammal turn to look at the direction of the sound, just purely by instinct?? If a deer heard something nearby go DING DING DING DING DING DING at its general direction, it would at least look up to see whether the source of the sound is a threat or not? Just a quick "is that something I need to be concerned about?" type of glance.

The enshittification of pedestrians has reached the point where they have less traffic survival skills than deer.

[homunculus-argument]

How exactly does one slow down and weave around pedestrians who are blocking the entire way in a formation in which it would be impossible to pass them even on foot without elbowing one or two?

[nerdyinfluencertastemaker]

This is literally why we need bike lanes

[homunculus-argument]

The pedestrians ignoring the bike bell are on the bike lanes.

[maykitz]

the persecution of lefthandedness is insane to think about because it was so intense for so long, in some places still is, without any clear profit motivation. sheer love of the game. as late as the 70s at least they were smacking my stepdad's hands for it with a wooden ruler at school, to this day he's in weird ambidexterity situation where he's not great with either side and notably clumsy due to poor hand-eye coordination. just wtf

[seeingteacupsindragons]

It is fascinating to me that people also think of handedness as an example of bigotry that just...went away. As you note, it...hasn't in some places. I know people who grew up in the mid-late 90s who still had this problem.

But also, and this is really important to keep in mind regarding bigotry that still causes in many ways larger problems, that the structural problems are not actually fixed.

If you go to any computer lab or public library, the mice will be on the right side of the computer. Sometimes they can be moved. Sometimes they can't. Many computer mice are curved to only fit in right hands.

It is impossible to find lefthanded scissors without going to a specialty store, because most scissor makers don't even make them. And it's not just a matter of grip; the slicing side of the blades is obscured if you use righty scissors in your left hand, so your cut is off.

All those signing pads with the little chained styluses? Almost always on the right side, often not even long enough to stretch to the left. Makes signing for lefties extremely difficult.

I caused actual muscular problems in college having to twist around in order to write at right-handed desks in college when there weren't enough lefty desks--and there never were. Some classrooms didn't even have a single one.

I could go on.

But the point is, bigotry isn't just a mindset shift. People can't just decide they're not bothered by that particular difference anymore and everything's fine, because society is still structured and designed to cause problems for marginalized people. And they're never even going to notice all the little ways their life is bent to convenience them that inconveniences others.

[kkelenca]

When kiddo was learning to write, their teacher—who was a beautifully kind, caring, compassionate person who even thanked me for making them aware of certain kinds of left/handed supplies, because their new toddler was a lefty and they’d never even thought about it—was teaching the kids a method for word spacing that involved placing their free index finger down at the end of each word and then writing the next one.

Pause for a moment, especially if you’re right-handed—and I’m being serious here, physically do this if you have two functioning arms and hands—and grab a writing tool in your left hand. Now place your right index finger down and try to start writing a word next to it.

Yeah. Great technique, huh? Really convenient and comfortable and easy. 🙃

I sent in a small baggie of small popsicle sticks I’d custom painted for them and labeled with their name for kiddo to use instead, but ultimately they stopped because it wasn’t as convenient when nobody else had to get something out.

Writing in English is difficult enough when you’re left-handed (most of our letters are designed with pull motions, but lefties must push), but even other foundational basics are made more difficult than they have to be, because their needs aren’t considered, even in situations where overt hostility isn’t intended.

Even now, in an older grade, they’re now all sharing a lot of the supplies, but my kiddo has their own pair of labeled lefty scissors they keep in their personal cubby. Teacher was 100% chill with me sending them in, but didn’t even consider to take the step further when I’d asked about whether or not they had them to just… get some for all the lefties. I know there are other kids, know some of them personally. (I made a set of writing spacing sticks for the single one that I knew of back in 1st grade.)

Regarding computer mice? Kiddo had standardized testing last year. They do it on chromebooks now at their school. They did their entire first day with the track pad instead of the mouse, because none of the teachers proctoring or assisting even knew you COULD switch the sides/toggle a setting to switch which button was the dominant select. We happened to have one at home thanks to remote learning during Covid’s early days, so that night we sat down together and found the setting ourselves so they could fix it the following day. But on a student account at school, they couldn’t change that setting. And? None of those teachers knew enough about technology to be able to override it. So even when I went above and beyond and personally sought out the skills and tools to help my child level the playing field on their own, the teaching staff was so unaccustomed to even considering this as a need or problem, that they weren’t able to remove the incredibly basic barriers to a fair schooling experience.

And this is honestly a good school, with staff that care and work hard and take 99% of bigotry concepts very seriously, teach about truth and compassion and how to recognize at this kid level a lot of the basic seeds that can grow into hate and hurt and also healing and helping. But the fact that left-handed needs are different? It is so ingrained to default to right-handed layouts that even left-handed staff don’t conceptualize these problems, because they were taught the exact same way.
