i love how being a robin is like. once a robin, always a robin. no one will ever understand what being a robin is like except other robins. you will grow older and your identity will change but you will still carry bruce's imprint in your dna. those are his moves. that is his voice in your ear. you will never not be a robin, you will never not be his. you will never be alone again, even when you want to be. you may have been the first, or the last, but you will never be the only. you are a robin. you will always be a robin. insane.

I get people who are like “why do you play Bethesda games” and it’s like what other game studio lets me pick up basically everything in my environment and throw it at people

I think every lesbian who says she wouldn't date a bi woman is functionally on the same wavelength as men who say they would only marry a virgin

[going2hell4everythingbutbeingbi]

it all boils down to "penis steals women's purity" and there's literally no non-shitty way to believe that. being gay doesn't give you a get out of jail free card for being sexist

[themainspoon]

I've read and heard enough stories about women losing their queer friends and being severed from their communities after coming out as Bi for a fucking lifetime. Respect Bi women or die.

everyone loves to hate terfs until they realise that it actually entails rejecting bioessentialism entirely and then suddenly you’re “taking things too seriously” and you “don’t have a sense of humour” like i’m sorry but saying protect the dolls doesn’t make you immune to terfism it has seeped into every corner of mainstream feminism and unless you’re actively searching it out and checking your own biases you will always be at risk of sharing a space with terfs

“Only women can—” nope. “But all men—” nah. “The divine femininity of—” gonna stop you right there. “Everyone born ama—” if you finish that sentence I’ll kill you. “Men don’t experience—” you’re wrong. “Gender isn’t real but sex is imm—” *loud incorrect buzzer*

It also goes without saying that bioessentialism inherently can’t be trans inclusive no matter how hard you try. “All men including trans men—” probably not. “This is only a woman’s issue—” is it really? “Afabs only—” why? “All trans men are like—” what? what are they like? finish the sentence i dare you.

Why is my country being run by people who never outgrew being self centered 14 year olds like how did we get here

I mean I know how we got here because I was there for it but still how did we get here

Growing up during the Obama administration set my standards too high for how a leader ought to act.

Yeah he had a lot of issues just like any other president. I just assume that anyone willing to be president of the United States is at least slightly evil.

But at least he spoke in coherent sentences and at least pretended to have a shred of empathy. He surrounded himself with people that were so boring and competent that you didn’t need to hear about them most of the time.

And now the FBI director is a fucking podcaster

I just had an argument with someone who was like “why would we settle for food stamps when we could have universal basic income?”

And it’s just like. People need food right now you know.

[what-even-is-thiss]

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again. Hippie church moms donating quinoa chips to my local food bank have done more for me materially than any internet idealist ever has.

[what-even-is-thiss]

People get pissed at me for being a pragmatist in my political ideals but I’ve been in the position where I was out of food right now.

And who helped me with that? Not people calling for some nebulous revolution. Not people telling me that the system was useless. Not people preaching at me to grow my own food. It was a church food bank partially funded by the state of Texas that some southern hippies donated a bunch of Whole Foods nonsense to.

And you know what? I’m sick and tired of defeatism. What can we get done right now, huh? Are you gonna accept something a bit better to help people right now or are you waiting for your perfect utopia to come to you?

Yeah, UBI is better than the quinoa chips. Sure. But right now the quinoa chips are stopping people from going hungry and if all we can do is get the food bank quinoa chips to more people, then I say so be it. That’s something. I’ll almost always take baby steps over nothing.
