I don’t often mention my actual job but it’s been taking over a little lately. I’m currently re-reading a lot of theoretical texts on intersectional liberation politics for work, which has me writing a seemingly infinite strategy document on different recommendations for how we can spur systemic change in our organisation. I’m grateful for a rare chance to approach my job in a research-based, theoretically-focused way as I usually lead on very operational projects. Some very promising (but often frustrating, due to inaction) conversations about decolonising the university, dismantling our systems that oppress marginalised students and augmenting activism in our roles.

Humans are waterproof. We just wear waterproof clothing because we don’t like the feeling of water touching our waterproof skin.

I think creating your own little peaceful space is very important when you want to study. Plants really calm me down and studying with plants around me gives me so much energy!

Exams are starting in three weeks and because of a personal loss I’m a bit behind on my schedule. I’m trying not to stress too much and it helps for me to surround myself with plants. Find out what works for you!

I wanna wish everyone good luck with the upcoming exams and I hope you all continue to be safe!

[thebookquotes]

I do not miss childhood, but I miss the way I took pleasure in small things, even as greater things crumbled. I could not control the world I was in, could not walk away from things or people or moments that hurt, but I took joy in the things that made me happy.

Why are you defending embarrassing behavior? Cringe culture isn’t perfect, but it’s why we don’t have to put up with SuperWhoLocks anymore. There’s way less annoying people because shaming helps people give up bad/cringy behaviors.

i would absolutely rather be mildly annoyed by happy people enjoying stuff im not into than miserable people who feel embarrassed about everything they do. ill take a million superwholock kids any day over 1 weirdo adult who enjoys making people feel bad

[cheaphalloweencostume]

high schoolers watching shows you dont like really isnt that deep

[jakeremake]

What happens when those kids grow up and no one tells them they need to put a filter on that shit around strangers? I work with one who is never going to hold a good job until she learns to STFU about fandom stuff in the real world.

[tracecourse]

so you think the solution is shaming kids into shutting up about their interests? it’s not the job of strangers on the internet to teach ppl how to manage the real world, trying to do that through cringe culture is just picking on them.

let them have fun. if they’re not allowed to talk about it irl, and they’re not allowed to talk about it on the internet, what do you expect them to do?

[random-cluster-missile---moved]

You guys are well aware cringe culture primarily targets autistic kids, right? Mocking their special interests is in fact traumatising 

Hell I almost stopped liking Undertale because of it

Shut up ableists

[tracecourse]

also, adhd. at this point i can control how much i talk about my hyperfixations, but i’m so scared of being annoying that i don’t do it as much as i’d like to, even online.

let ppl be happy. cringe culture fucks up autistic and adhd kids by forcing them not to talk about their interests literally anywhere.

[eroticcannibal]

Neurotypicals do not ever shut the fuck up about football I think you all can handle someone being excited over a tv show

[jabberwockypie]

Wild idea: What if we, as a culture, do not act like assholes to people who are enjoying a thing? Who gives a fuck? If you’re saying you’ve never annoyed someone with something you were interested in, I guarantee you are mistaken.

Let people like what they like. Try to find some joy in something regardless of if you think it’s silly or “cringey” instead of being a resentful twit about others being excited. Life is too fucking short and you could die tomorrow. Enjoy things. Be kind.

It’s not that fucking complicated: Don’t be a dick.

[starrypawz]

It’s also not usually a crime to talk about fandom at work.

Like y'all never had convos about ‘have you seen the new marvel movie?’ ‘Did you see The Voice last night?’ During breaks or quiet moments

[shadowphoenixrider]

Superwholock people were (are?) typically teenagers are young adults going through a phase. I know, because I went through a similar one!

Is it highly annoying if you’re not the one in the eye of the storm? Yes! Does that mean you should shame them? No! Leave them the fuck alone! You’ve got a blocking system - use it!

It’s going to be cringey enough for them when they look back on it in later life. They don’t need constipated fun vampires kicking them in the shins too.

[littlestarprincess]

This idea that people “need” cringe culture in order to “learn” how to be worth respecting also reeks of the same bullshit abusers say day in and day out.

People don’t “need” to be hurt in order to learn or grow. If something isn’t workplace appropriate, you bring up why it’s not workplace appropriate (i.e. fandom clothing is generally not considered professional, so they’d need to follow the dress code. Talking about fanservicey anime might not be appropriate either, due to it leaning on sexual jokes or what not – if someone tried talking to me about Panty & Stocking with Garterbelt, I wouldn’t say “ugh that shit’s gross and dumb so you’re gross and dumb for liking it” I’d say “I don’t feel comfortable talking about this at work” or something similar.

Cringe culture is inherently abusive because it’s based on abusive control tactics. I’d 100% prefer happy, healthy and safe people who are mind numbingly obnoxious to people who seem to have good manners on the surface but are spending so much energy policing themselves that they can’t let anyone in ever again.

[starklore]

Everything @littlestarprincess said, plus the fact that autistic kids are often subjected to medical torture in order to make them “normal” and cringe culture endorses that by pushing the idea that it’s okay to make someone suffer in order to make them “normal” IE less annoying. Cringe culture is crowdsourced ABA. 

[kyraneko]

Somebody who shoots down people’s happiness is WAY more unpleasant to deal with than somebody who gets a little overexcited about Avatar or whatever.

[jabberwockypie]

As an autistic, ADHD person:

1. It absolutely should not take someone “that ‘weird’ kid might be autistic” for you to not be cruel. I don’t want ANYONE to be treated the way I was in school, including neurotypical people.

2. I am so entirely sick of bullying shitheads coming up with new and exciting reasons that their bad behavior is acceptable and justified and - apparently(???) laudable.

3. “You’re hurting people. Stop it.” should not be a controversial fucking statement.

4. If you are harming people because they’re not “normal”, you are a bad person. Yes, you. Look at your choices, do some self-reflection, and knock it the hell off.

[darkacademiac]

as a member of the dark academia community, it is my duty to look mysterious while reading in the corner of libraries.

that being said, as a biromantic person, it is also my duty to impulsively buy clothes that a white dad would wear on his family vacation to hawaii.

I’m getting mixed signals from myself.

[writingvenusian]

Do both! Be the mysterious person in the back of the corner wearing outrageous outfits. People want to ask you why you’re wearing a floral-patterned shirt in the west wing, but they can’t make themselves do it. They ask if you’re comfortable. You smile and nod. You ask them their opinions on the latest publication of Machiavelli. “Isn’t he dead?” they ask. “Likely!” you respond. You are still smiling. They wonder if you’re immortal, but are still afraid to ask.
