"this has been talked about extensively, you're just 21" haha funny sick twitter burn. but also

the post that its in response to is about how insane it is that some of the most transmisogynistic caricatures of all time are from incredibly popular horror movies. i know we as transfeminists have talked about this extensively. but outside of transfem circles... it really hasn't been talked about? like at all?

most tmes (including way too many trans tmes) will look you dead in the eyes and say "wait, i had no idea that the guy who sings that he's a transvestite from transylvania in a movie made by a guy who hates trans women was actually about his horrible shitty views on trans women!"

or even worse, they'll pretend you're insane for even thinking that their stupid movie could possibly be transphobic. after all, how can it be transphobic if the city's pflag has an event where they play it every Halloween?

it being "talked about extensivel [between us]" doesn't mean "everyone is aware of this"

maybe we should talk about it more, instead of shutting down baby's first transfeminist critique of transmisogynistic pop culture. just a Thot™

While everyone is watching the World Cup matches, I am watching these fires and destruction in reality as shown in the picture, and worse than that, I am now lying on a hospital bed, injured and burdened with illness, and my situation is very difficult

[fadell-aldany]

I suffer from severe anemia and constant nausea. I also experience frequent fainting spells because I cannot afford my essential medications due to their exorbitant price and my financial hardship, Our situation in Gaza is well-known, and my health is deteriorating daily. Please stand by us ,I need your support to be able to purchase my medication and survive. I hope you will not ignore my current plight.

[fadell-aldany]

My health is deteriorating rapidly, and I can barely write this letter to tell you that I desperately need your help. Please stand by me so I can buy my medication as soon as possible and travel for my surgery. Please stand by me.

[fadell-aldany]

I need your help to stop my pain and save myself as quickly as possible. Please, I don't want to die. Please stand by me to raise the m0ney for my medication and surgery as soon as possible. Please stand by me.

I feel like I need to write an explainer on transmedicalism cause I keep seeing people either not identifying actual transmedicalism or people saying things are transmedicalism that are not transmedicalism

transmedicalist statements:

being trans is a medical disorder

being trans needs to be diagnosed by a doctor or psychiatrist

not everyone who disagrees with their assignment is really trans, and the fakers make the true transsexuals look bad

you can "fully" transition and then you're not trans anymore. trans only refers to the medical transitioning process. if you find out you are not trans, you can detransition back. the goal is to not be trans, and transition is a middle stage to get through as quickly and privately as possible.

"male" and "female" are real, biological realities and anyone who says they are not one or the other is lying or delusional

not transmedicalist statements:

a lot of trans people need and/or desire access to surgical and/or hormonal healthcare options which are currently restricted on the basis of sex assignment at birth

when healthcare access is denied due to a patient's diagnosis of "gender dysphoria," that denial is specifically targeting trans people for being trans (even though not all trans people have that diagnosis)

sometimes trans people assume they do not want transition care because they have internalized transphobic propaganda about what it is, how it works, and how accessible it is for them. giving them information about it can help them make a more educated choice about what they want.

nonbinary people pursue medical transition too. this is not at all uncommon. sometimes nonbinary people, particularly transfeminized nonbinary people, need additional support and encouragement to know they are not "taking resources" from "real" trans people before they are able to admit they need and/or want transition care.

i bring a sort of “you should maybe interrogate your so-called ‘preferences’ to make sure they’re not literal textbook examples of severe unconscious bias” vibe that my woke gay friends dont really like

[mephistopheles]

what this post does NOT mean

go out and fuck someone you aren’t attracted to because a stranger on tumblr said to

go out and date someone you aren’t attracted to because a stranger on tumblr said to

You’re Not Allowed To Be Gay Anymore

what this post DOES mean

if you just ‘prefer’ to avoid majority black areas of your city

if you just ‘prefer’ to read, write, think, and talk about men

if you just ‘prefer’ to socialize with people you (perceive as) your assigned birth sex

if you just ‘prefer’ to exclusively watch white-directed movies, read white-written books, listen to white-authored music

if you just unconsciously perceive men as more authoritative/competent and ‘prefer’ to be spoken to by them

this is a post about acknowledging unconscious bias. it is not a post about dating. please stop coming into my inbox and accusing me of rape apologism and telling me to kill myself. thank you

[ninanation]

Come to think of it, it really is insane that my entire country is burning alive and literally no one in the rest of the world cares. Thousands of Indians are dying every day from the heat, it's 45+ degrees in multiple areas, the government couldn't give two fucks, we're getting severe warnings and red alerts, and not a soul outside of South Asia is speaking about it because why would you ever care about brown people

[ninanation]

please keep talking about how Becky from Maryland doesn't like the rising gas prices. It's clearly the more pressing issue.

[creacher-art]

USA folks, that is a consistent temperature range hitting 113°. Death Valley temperatures. In Banda, it hovered between 116°-118° (47°-48° C) for a week straight.

This has been happening all month with little to no international media attention. Here are a few organizations you can check out for resources or to support:

ActionAid India

SEEDS India

GlobalGiving

Raise India (Project Tapan)

The manufactured outrage from the right over the new Supergirl movie is so blatant. Like it’s one of many, many “Eh, it’s whatever” superhero films, but they still need to make a fuss because its about a woman. Like, they literally only do this when the film is about people of color, or women, or has some kind of minority rep.

It’s embarrassing. Like, oh, you guys are only now think its a big deal when a superhero movie is mediocre? Not for a majority of the mediocrity filling the MCU catalogue? Not the Snyderverse DC movies? Not any of that? Sure.

[victusinveritas]

There's worse to come, folks. Strap in and stay strapped.

like many people have said this better than me but no it IS odd that we've come to think of potatoes as so quintessentially european that their presence in historical fantasy where they're anachronistic doesn't jar. and yes people are trying to have the trappings of post-colonial europe without engaging w the icky colonialism part and yes people are neglecting to imagine what a european cuisine without potatoes would be like.

[penny-anna]

im fully in favour of 'let people have fun w their fantasy world' but is considering how the potatoes got there in the absence of colonialism not a fun exercise? maybe every year the dragon riders go on a great transatlantic potato pilgrimage

[penny-anna]

perhaps a good way to sum up the issue here is:

if you put potatoes in your medieval european style fantasy world people will by and large not find it jarring and accept it as a normal fantasy trope

if you put, say, black people in your medieval european style fantasy world a whole demographic of people will get very angry and accuse you of breaking their immersion

this is in spite of the fact that black people were a lot more common in medieval europe than potatoes.

happy juneteenth but dont forget that prisoners are legally allowed to be subject to slave labor and also black people are disproportionately arrested and subjected to that legality. happy juneteenth but slavery still lives in america. america is still dependant on slave labor.

if you're not an abolitionist in 2026 then you probably wouldn't have been one in 1856. just something to think about.

[termagax]

about to say something mean but i feel like every "male-specific" issue is something that also happens to women its just that a lot of you dont seem to see women as people

[termagax]

women are also feeling lonely and alienated from communities en masse women are also expected to stifle their mental health for the sake of perfomance at work, in relationships, for children ect women are also expected to work extremely hard to maintain a perfect body and perfect health and are punished for being fat/having hair loss/having health issues especially those that affect ones sex life women are also insecure women are also neglected by parents and teachers and authority figures women are also scrutinized for having emotions and punished for not meeting the gendered expectations of our class and expected to climb upwards and overcompensate while being punished for signs of poverty and we get the added bonus on top of, yknow, being women. your emotional issues are not a Crisis Attacking Manhood theyre the way our society is fucking built you just dont see women as people

[ladyshinga]

Really wish we'd, on the left, stop laughing and assuming this is ACTUALLY about strippers. I'd be willing to bet this ISN'T about some one with the actual job of stripper being somehow hired and sent to a school, that indeed DOESN'T happen - instead it will be used to target any female teacher who, like, wears a bikini on social media one time. She'll be called a "danger" to children and fired, as a cover for the fact that she's pro-queer or too far left or doesn't support ICE enough on that same social media. The bikini pic will just be the legal tool used to ruin her life

[ladyshinga]

A friend helped me out by looking up the actual bill and YUP, it's to target queer people and sex education. NOT. STRIPPERS. STOP MAKING IT ABOUT THE FUCKING "STRIPPERS".

[theshampyon]

Anyone who thinks ladyshinga might be off track, here's the breakdown.

Actual bill name: Stop the Sexualization of Children Act.

Purported purpose: "to protect children from being exposed to explicit material in the classroom".

How it's sold in the press: "Ban strippers and porn from classrooms!"

Actual text of the bill: Expands the meaning of "sexually explicit content" to include the words "or involves gender dysphoria or transgenderism".

Not and. Or. Meaning "involves gender dysphoria or transgenderism" is in and of itself enough to be classified as sexually explicit.

Actual result: Illegal to mention the existence of trans people or admit to being trans in a classroom under threat of being prosecuted as a child sex offender.

as a regular donor to Gaza Soup Kitchen I get their email updates, and they said today that while they've continued to be able to expand, donations are slowing down as Gaza gets less coverage. If you have a few dollars to spare, I encourage you to send them here to continue the amazing work that Hani and his team are doing.
