reblogging my own flop posts so I don’t see the 0 notes symbol

When advocating against doomscrolling behaviour on the basis that looking at atrocities, by itself, does not do anything, and in fact burning yourself out by doing so will negatively impact your capacity for actually doing something, a common objection is that the people affected don't get the choice to just look away

And here's the thing

The people directly affected by any given atrocity don't get to sit there and stare.

They have to react. They have to actually DO SOMETHING, whether that's to run away, help the injured or try to directly deal with the atrocity.

The doomscroller does nothing useful, out of a sense of obligation that benefits no one, from a position of privilege where they're enabled to sit there and passively take in the horrors without acting.

Criticising the culture that creates this behaviour is necessary to redirect all that wasted cognitive load so it can actually go somewhere useful.

descriptions of the Essential Masculine Experience are always written by a) someone who thinks that women have no inner lives and thus imagines that the basic elements of the human condition are only experienced by men or b) someone who thinks that video games and action movies are real life

"if I ever say something transmisogynistic you have the right to smack me" ok but like. can we maybe just have a conversation about it instead

[mousidy]

I know it's a jokey funny thing to say but like I hope the people who say this sort of thing do realize that transmisogyny is not, like, a sin for which they must repent by suffering. we actually just want you to understand your mistake and adjust your future behavior. no suffering necessary

[mousidy]

like this goes doubly if we're friends! if I'm your friend I would take no pleasure or sense of justice in your suffering. I want you to be happy! I just want to know that I can trust you enough to have a conversation with you if something you do doesn't sit right with me. if we can do that it will lead to a happier and lovelier friendship for us both. I don't want to smack you I want to frolic through the flowers with you and sing lalala

[mousidy]

see this is another common attitude that I find completely ineffective. you cannot simply disown and wash your hands of any potential transmisogyny you might perpetuate by saying you "didn't mean it." not even us trans women are immune to internalizing and reproducing the transmisogyny that pervades the culture we live in. if you assume that you are somehow immune, that the only way you could possibly perpetuate transmisogyny is via some slip of the tongue that wasn't representative of what you actually believe, that does not make me feel safe. it only shows me that you will not be willing to reflect on your beliefs should they actually come into question. you cannot own your mistakes by disowning them

"that's a lot of work"

yes, it is! it's a lot of work for us too! lucky you, though, there are basically no consequences to simply choosing not to be an ally to trans women. you have the option to simply ignore us. take it if you like! there's nothing we can do about it, despite how loud we may be on the internet. you hold all the cards! I imagine you'll find that nobody who can do anything about it will care, you won't be #cancelled, and you'll just move on with your life. it may feel scary to take criticism from a marginalized group, but there's no gun to your head. doing this work is a choice, and it's all yours!

Tumblr staff just terminated 3 of my friends

@analog-delight, @sapphireh3art, and @puppiesthoughtsgobrrrr, in the span of a few minutes.

They aren't even hiding it this time, they claimed no reason for the termination. "For any reason, or none at all."

Staff is transmisogynistic and is targetting trans women and their allies on purpose. They are all but admitting to this here.

[missstrogen]

By my count we're at 6 accounts (overwhelmingly transfems) terminated in the last ten minutes, most if not all with the same "For any reason, or none at all", bullshit justification.

Tumblr staff is currently running a banwave of trans women, terminating them without justification.

[missstrogen]

I've been told of more than ten more girls banned, in the same timeframe. @yay-bunnies was banned too.

I've been told that all followers of a now terminated blogs were banned, so it's safe to assume that someone on staff just went down the list of a tgirl's blog and banned all of them.

@staff is transmisogynistic and currently mass banning trans women. Make sure they never hear the end of it. Raise hell like yall did a few days ago. Staff is mass banning transfems without reason.

[missstrogen]

All evidence points to staff having mass banned all followers of @kidnappbait (or rather her latest blog), and all of them recieving the same "any reason, or none at all" message.

Staff is now just running down hit lists of transfems.

[missstrogen]

I have asked a good amount of the terminated people, and it looks like that was the case, so let me put it simply

Staff banned all followers of a transfem's account, staff is mass banning transfems without reason

Send feedback to staff. Raise hell. Don't let them get away with that.

[missstrogen]

If you know someone who was terminated, or are someone that was terminated, please contact me, I'm trying to gather evidence.

god not to go doomer mode but this era of the Internet where we all are on dying platforms at the hands of evil fucking corps/ceos that not only introduce changes that piss off the user base, but actively promote toxicity and harassment for the marginalized users who can't really protect themselves while exiling them and censoring them is bad. it's also bad that the Internet is getting childproofed with id laws and shit because people love controlling children and minorities. this era where artists, communities, and friends get fucked over by these rules and regulations is an era I can't absolutely wait to exit soon. fuck the Internet now.

[wolfertinger666]

the only thing we can do to these corporations is intimidate them into not fucking us over, but i will be honest and say it's tiring how often this keeps happening with different platforms and services because capitalism is a leech that's feeding off the bloods of millions. millions of minorities specifically.

Shout-out to this fascinating combination of kinks and DNIs that I saw in the wild:

Let's see, we have:

Our glorious: mommy kink ✅

Their wicked: incest/fauxcest ❌

Our glorious: femboys ✅

Their wicked: sissies ❌

Our glorious: CNC ✅

Their wicked: rapeplay ❌

Our glorious: boys, twinks, femboys, service subs (common theme is that there are multiple of them) ✅

Their wicked: non-monogamy ❌

To send a message, write a complaint and boycott the company behind Burger King and the other franchises it owns.

This includes Popeyes and Tim Hortons.

The Trump Administration is Testing Conversion Therapy By Medically Experimenting on Trans People in Prisons

The Bureau of Prisons is subjecting trans people to conversion therapy and denying them care with the goal of helping them "recover." It's t

Please read and share this, it affects everyone within our community, and if anyone has any further sources to add, including ways we can push back, please do.

Here is a link to the Federal Document signed this past February 19th.

5260.01 Management of Inmates with Gender Dysphoria

This policy, signed by Bureau of Prisons Director Billy Marshall, outlines how federal prisons will treat gender dysphoria from now on. It u

This is just conversion therapy, just straight up conversion therapy. This is human experimentation trying to "cure" being transgender that the US Government is enacting on captives in federal prisons who do not have the rights to protect themselves and cannot fight back against it. It is utterly inhumane.

Not to mention that black Americans end up disproportionately incarcerated in US prisons and this will certainly be an extension of a long history of the US government committing human experimentation on black lives and bodies.

Alongside this, I need everyone to be very aware that if even a portion of these cases are marked as 'resolved', if the US Gov can manufacture some kind of statistic that these methods "work," it could very well become a mandated policy for treating gender dysphoria across the US. Not just in prisons, but any kind of government custody and potentially in psychiatric inpatient care, and potential extensions beyond that into the life of the general public.

Although what may be most effective would be to make it so that many trans people end up either within government or psychiatric custody, where their rights are directly denied from them in a situation they are defenseless against- just like this. And this will effect firstly those most vulnerable in our population, those impoverished, unhoused, severely mentally ill/disabled, immigrants, and the many black trans americans and other trans people of color who fall into these categories, especially.

But beyond this being a testing ground for broader society, the situation this will/is enacting on trans inmates matters right now and needs to be heard and spoken out against.
