(try guys)

idk if this is a controversial opinion or whatever but. why the fuck do people still bring up This Fucking Dick up in the comments. just let him die. stop talking about him. like yes, don't forget what he's done but stop fucking dragging him back out onto the spotlight just to shit talk him; some people want to move the fuck on.

i'm so sick of good faith comment scrolling only to find At Least one comment talking about A Dick nearly 1 year after he got fired

ffs just. let. him. die. (also i don't think i even need to mention that but i don't mean that in a literal sense) "this other guy is So much better than He-Who-Shall-Not-Be-Named! i hope he'll be in more videos <3" YOU CAN WRITE THAT COMMENT WITHOUT MENTIONING A LITERAL SHITBAG. WHAT'S SO HARD ABOUT THAT. MOVE THE FUCK ON ALREADY

i don't understand why people automatically assume you're okay with nsfw if you are not an anti

i apologize if i'm stepping on toes (hi eiden) but like

i randomly remembered that one time a moot on tweeter said something involving "split personalities" and immediately got multiple private qrts because yeah. and upon asking if they did something wrong No One answered. i told my moot that they're fine (obviously receiving multiple pqrts as well) and then i saw what people were upset about. i ended up telling my moot that it's not their fault if literally no one is stepping up to educate them even after asking what they did wrong.

like what's up with that. why could none of the qrters be bothered to you know. tell my moot that "split personalities" is a bad term and not to use it. how about people don't take things in bad faith immediately and explain stuff first. how are we supposed to learn about other people living in this society if no one is willing to communicate

(gender, transphobia mention)

randomly remembering that time i got excited about he/him girlllll naru content like "i love to see it <333 we need more of this" and someone responded like "i don't love it and i don't want more of this/i don't think we need more of this"

i nearly started crying.

that's one of the reasons, probably the biggest reason, i do not trust either anti side nor proship side. because that happened in an openly proship server. "damn you support trans people but you can't do the same for concepts that are a little out of the box and weird and unheard of and you actively don't want them? you think you are so woke because you let others ship what they want?? how does it feel to actively be against other people's identities??? how does it feel to be a transphobe—because that's how you're behaving"

they did say they respect it but like. um. that was clearly included for damage control... you literally said One sentence before that thst you don't want to see it.

some of the replies on the Why Do You Reblog Your Own Works post actually made me really. sad

like,,,, what do they mean writers are supposed to just take what they get (more likes than reblogs) and if they try to get more attention they are just selfish...? like do they know how much thought goes into a single piece of work. yes i make things for myself, but every creator knows how nice it is to get some kind of reception towards an art piece you put a lot of effort (more or less) into

(gender)

ughhhhhh i'm so sick of people gendering based on appearance, hobbies, and preferences CAN WE JUST. STOP????

"small and cute man? you're trans now :3c" IS THAT THE ONLY REASON WHY YOU TRANSIFY CHARACTERS??? how about behavior. what they themselves say. their struggle with society. literally anything else??

if that's what they like, by any means be free, state your truths idc but i Wish that wasn't the standard. it just enforces traditional gender roles, and i thought we were trying to get away from those.

but also. it kinda defeats the concept that gender is fluid. "tall and strong? male or trans male. short and petite? female or trans female." why is there just a strong desire of things to be boxed in and labeled? why are you incapable of looking at a male character who likes cute things and fashion without going "he's trans!" men can like cute things too but nooooo people don't accept that for whatever reasons

it's always about trans or not trans. how about we stop looking at things in a black and white lens..... let them exist outside the concept of gender. stop accusing people of transphobia because they don't agree with your beloved trans headcanon

i'm so sick of the "romantic love is the highest form of happiness you can attain" mentality. you can be at your happiest without romantic love

[distortedwhite]

kinda crazy how writing problematic things is the new equivalent for "They are a transphobe/homophobe/racist/radfem so let's not approve them for the zine"
