there was a great study a few years that went into the whole "ppl online are bigger jerks than irl cuz theres a virtual wall and no repercussions" and the researchers were expecting to see that be the case but it turns out that people who were really angry or argumentative online were also found to just be assholes in person and people who were pretty patient and nice online were found to be patient and nice in real person as well

and it just debunked that whole cynical idea that people will naturally be mean if theres no punishment for it

source another source

the researchers found that being online didnt make people more hostile, but that being online allowed already hostile people to dominate forum conversations, and the less aggressive people were much less likely to reply or engage, ending in just the aggressive people bickering at eachother

THE IMAGE ON THIS POST CONTAINS MISINFORMATION

not only is this not fucking true (source: the literal hundreds of thousands of trans women who have smoked cigarettes all thru transition and had perfectly fine transitions) but it’s also deeply cruel to spread. i wish i had my post about this but it got nuked. this is not true!!! this is bullshit!!! stop policing trans women’s bodies!!!! you have no clue what it is like to be a cigarette smoker and if you knew the first thing about chemical dependency or nicotine addiction you would know that shit like this DOESNT HELP QUITTING!!! stop putting this shit on my dash!!! stop it!!! you need to understand that smoking cigarettes is not fucking fun. you constantly get shamed and bombarded with overwhelming and graphic reminders of the potential harm you are doing to your body. there is no need to add misinformation on top of that!!!!! fuck you!!! if you spread this shit you are a fucking transmisogynist and ableist!!!

[malignedmare]

how is this literally any fucking different from telling a cis woman not to smoke cigarettes bc “theyll age you faster and make you ugly and leathery”??? hint: it’s not and if anything it’s worse!!! there are significantly better ways to help people quit cigarettes!!! fear and shame are not effective or ethical behavior modifiers!!! stop doing this!!!

When you take hrt orally, smoking cigarettes does make estradiol less effective or totally ineffective. However other types of hrt are ok to smoke with.

Smoking, estradiol metabolism and hormone replacement therapy - PubMed

Many women receiving hormone replacement therapy (HRT) smoke; in the Women's Health Initiative (WHI), one of the largest interventional stud

[malignedmare]

this is just another reason on the pile of dozens to use something other than oral instead

my instagram thinks i like tadc still so it keeps putting stuff like this on my feed no matter what i do. am i wrong for thinking this is really weird though???

i don't like the phrase "dipping in the chocolate" (a phrase meaning to have sex with a black woman) being used here because i know how the tadc fans are. immediately pointing out her race and further reducing her to just "someone kinger has sex with" just doesn't sit right with me

ah, right. not empathizing with an abuser is "failing an empathy test". yea, no that makes sense.

yea, sure, pomni is the most empathetic. not ragatha. the one who instantly tries to make pomni feel better when she joins the circus and has a panic attack. the one who tried to comfort jax after ribbit abstracted. the one who wants to do as much as she can for everyone else, even if it winds up with her getting hurt. why would it be ragatha.

pomni clearly cares about her friends that jax hurts. why else would she continue to let jax harass and abuse them. pomni, the one who told ragatha to be mean and then gotupset when ragatha was even slightly mean. the one who practically shuns ragatha because she's trying to be nice. ah yes, how did i not see that it was pomni who was the most empathetic all along

also saying that gangle is "annoying when unmasked" and ragatha is "abused rich white woman" is crazy.

To any suicidal followers I may have: This is a sign to not kill yourself. You are loved and the world is special because you are in it. Keep holding on.

Reblog this when it’s on your dash. You will save someone’s life.

I recently saw someone use the 'saddest man alive to most beautiful woman you've ever met' meme format for Jax, and . . . listen.

I know that physical beauty does not imply anything about a person's worth.

I know that Jax is a trans woman, and that this is the Trans Woman Meme™.

I know that the people posting these things are probably just following a popular format, and likely do not specifically intend to make a direct comparison between Jax and the other women in TADC. They could even be children who don't know any better.

I know that this meme takes place in a hypothetical scenario in which Jax comes out and lives as a woman and probably all of her other glaring personality issues and behaviors go away because she accepts herself.

But it seriously PISSES ME OFF to see people call her the 'most beautiful woman' when she is a SERIAL WOMAN ABUSER. Her 2 REPEATED MAIN PHYSICAL AND EMOTIONAL ABUSE VICTIMS are women who have never done anything to her. Her recent 3rd emotional abuse victim is a woman who actively tries to help her. 2 of her other targets are/were (BECAUSE RIBBIT IS DEAD BECAUSE OF JAX) nonbinary, and were likely socialized as women. Jax does NOT get to be the 'most beautiful woman' when she has repeatedly beaten the ever-loving shit out of Gangle and Ragatha over and over and over again, in front of the audience's eyes, destroying their self-worth and taking advantage of the damage she herself has done to continue breaking them apart for her own entertainment.

You do NOT call an ABUSER more beautiful than her VICTIMS, goddamnit.

Reminder that TADC was not the first indie show in theaters, nor the first indie show shown internationally. that would be BFDI.

even if you don’t like the show, if you care at all about indie animation, talk about jacknjellify.

talk about the fact it’s run by two asians.

talk about the fact they don’t mistreat people working on the show.

talk about the fact it pioneered an entire genre of indie animation.

talk about the fact that they don’t let horrible people work on their projects.

i’m so serious, stop praising TADC, a show ran by a company that DOES mistreat workers, and HAS let horrible people work on their things.

praise indie shows that have shown they ARE good, and ran by good people. praise indie shows that ACTUALLY paved the way for other indie creators.

The jokes write themselves sometimes

[tadcsalt]

Ragatha: *accidentally trauma dump about her abusive mom*

Everyone: "(ー_ー;)..........yikes."

Ragatha: "oh my gosh I'm so sorry I made you uncomfortable with my feelings I was just being silly, teehee!

Jax: "*explain in vague details how his mom was bad* anyway I shoved her to the ground and left her to die"

Ribbit: "oh my gosh you poor baby, I'm sure you didn't hurt her that bad and even if you did she probably deserved it btw can I suck your dick?"

Jax: "fuck you bitch, you ruined my tough guy persona I hope you kill yourself"

Pomni, after witnessing this and more: "I didn't know you played the piano 🥹"

Jax: "leave me alone foid"
