Babe we NEED pics of your rubber cuck collection

so actually ☝what i collect is DUCKS

[snapcracklepop-myjoints]

here is all of the ones I could grab at 4 am, excluding 4 that have been made into earrings and a couple that are in other rooms i cant go in rn (and one that i lost like 3 years ago but still mourn, rip bluey). sorry if the image quality is crap i had to take this picture on my computer (clicking on it might help ? idk)

theyve mostly all been gifted and all have stories attatched to them ! some of my favourites:

the one in the middle with a white hat is from essen germany, given to me by my sister. he's a coal miner and is covered in a layer of fake dust so i keep him in the shower. hes my absolute favourite one.

the one with the eyepatch (second from left, middle row) is named cigarette. my beloved friend found him in the gutter, like a cigarette butt, so it was fate

the evil duo-lingo owl looking one next to cigarette (green, third from left, middle row) is. i am unsure what it is meant to be. he does not have a name and he does haunt me a bit. i found him in my bag at some point with no recollection of how he got there. unsure if he was gifted or stolen while drunk or what. i cherish him anyway.

the pink and white unicorn in front of the other unicorns was given to me by my sister. she got it from [redacted] small place that she was in for work. they had a claw machine with rubber ducks, and she decided she HAD to get a duck for me from this machine, but she is so crap at claw machines that she spent like 30 minutes and 15 bucks usd trying to get a duck. Eventually the lady running the store took pity on her and unlocked the machine so she could just grab one with her hand instead.

the rosie the riveter duck (far right) is from my aunt, who got it at a museum and chose it because it was really funny that the duck had arms

orange one, far left, is named traffic cone. my sister was in I think nashville ? i could be wrong. this was before I started adding place of origin. anyway she searched FOREVER for somewhere to buy me a duck, and eventually found traffic cone in a bin at some or another random store. (he was the only duck they had). the day after she left someone told her that there was a store nearby that specialised in rubber ducks. like a block away or something i think. really funny.

the very tiny ones in front (a couple are missing since I hide them around the bathroom and actually forgot where i put them rip) are from different people but the same place. my last year at college, I found the two peach ones on campus on the ground. I kept walking by them every day for like a week and worrying that they would get kicked into the underbrush accidentally and get lost, and then I eventually decided they had been abandoned and that I would be a good home for them. This year, it seems someone (maybe the same person ?) has been putting more little ducks around campus and my friends keep going "oooh ceci would love this" and grabbing it for me and theyre RIGHT i DO love them. The most recent is the blue one (aquired this weekend) and my favourite is the green one since it is glow in the dark (and was given to be by the same person who got me cigarette, and also a number of the other ducks here !)

unpictured, but I also have two medium sized ducks that i made into earrings. (I'm fairly certain that if you look at my #ceci.jpeg tag theres a number of pictures with me wearing them) theyre on long chains tho so they dangle down to my shoulders which imo adds a lil extra pizzazz. I wore them to my mcr concert and got a lot of compliments which was very exciting.

there are much larger duck collections ofc, but mine all are really special individually and were gifted to me by my friends and family who often went to a lot of trouble to get them, so I think its a pretty great collection :)

if anyone is curious about the story behind a specific duck lmk :)

[snapcracklepop-myjoints]

i like how many people are apologising for thinking rosie the river-ter's arms/wings are boobs like thats not the most boobed-up duck inthe world

[snapcracklepop-myjoints]

If my previous ask said fucks instead of ducks I'm really sorry I'm high as balls on edibles and sleep deprivation

worse <3

Call me crazy but I do think that trying to apply a cisgender based framework of gendered oppression onto intercommunity trans dynamics — in any capacity — will always have one major, glaringly obvious point of failure, which is:

NONE of us are fucking cisgender and the gendered privileges afforded by cisgender society are never genuinely or fully afforded to ANY of us.

[ftmtftm]

What does this mean?

It means that trying to assign any kind of "male privilege" to ANY category of trans people will never truly be fruitful, because the concept of "male privilege" was created by cisgender women to discuss cisgender men under cisgender gender dynamics without the experiences of transgender people in mind.

I think we can all agree that transgender women, transgender men, and nonbinary people are NOT cisgender men.

Even when we are discussing trans people who are externally perceived as / assumed to be cisgender men within society because they are stealth, closeted, or non-cis passing — those trans people are experiencing something conditional that can be stripped from them the moment anyone in a position to harm them finds out they are trans.

I think we can all agree that being misgendered and/or having to hide a part of yourself so you do not get hate crimed and/or lose employment or benefits or housing, etc. is NOT an exercising of privilege.

Even when we are discussing misogyny, an important and longstanding part of feminist discussion on misogyny is the fact that everyone is capable of being misogynistic. Misogyny is not stored in the assigned sex or gender identity. We all live in a patriarchal society, NO ONE is immune from internalizing misogynistic, patriarchal worldviews and acting upon them.

I think we can all agree that there is no transgender person who is incapable of being misogynistic, because there is no person in general who is incapable of being misogynistic.

To act as though privilege and bigotry are stored in a sex assignment or gender identity is to be gender/sex essentialist.

To try to apply that essentialism through a feminist lense IS radical feminist and there IS better feminism than that out there.

This has been in my mind since August but I couldn't figure out which character would say it. Then I started a Karlach Origin run and realized: Karlach. Karlach has a face that knows what The Grinch is.
