impossible, you say?

Unironically I think this site and queer spaces in general do a lot of good for appearance anxiety. To be a daughter who grew up in the stranglehold of the Aéropostale mid-2000's era, to now wake up in 2023 and throw on some absolute bullshit in the morning and go "yeah, a lesbian somewhere would find this super hot." Affirming. Soul-healing.

Anyway I saw a TERF blog say "there are hardly any gay men on Tumblr, probably because men don't use the internet except to talk about video games and spread misogyny" djshdjdjdjddn

Feminism win!

... how is this adult content?

It isn’t, but some people are assholes and the flag system is kinda automatic until you appeal so they abuse it.

this is truly on god the first would you rather that i've ever had to devote significant thought to. neither of these answers feel good

It's gonna be hilarious if *this*, of all things, is what causes a new resurgence of the Check Please fandom.

this is how we get the tv show

I fixed it

sex and magic trans pride flag

I guess I was being presumptive but I think it's funny that people are reblogging this without the knowledge that the blue and pink are color picked from the stripes labeled "magic" and "sex" on the Gilbert Baker pride flag

people need to realise that a poor little meow meow must be a character who has committed atrocities you cannot poor little meow meow a good guy that’s not how this works

what this post has shown me is that so many of people on this hellsite cannot distinguish between a poor little meow meow and a blorbo from my shows smh

Hope this helps!

things to note about transphobes on this site:

"Does The Way Christians Use Capitalized He/Him For God Count As A Neopronoun" - the greatest thread in the history of forums, locked by a moderator after 12,239 pages of heated debate,

landlords arent bad because theyre “lazy” or “parasites”, theyre bad because they take advantage of poverty and manipulate housing availability for financial gain. you people have GOT to stop framing your critiques of the bourgeoise the same way eugenicists talk about the disabled

I was going to sneakily reply to this with “but they’re also parasites” but

I did some introspection and you’re right. While landlords do suck up value without giving any back, the idea that every individual needs to “contribute something” to capital is an inherently manufactured take.

What should be criticized is the coercive nature of the transaction between rentiers and their tenants; the artificial scarcity employed to maintain the power imbalance between the landed and those without; an ideal world is not one where we retributively attack the gentry but find a way to make them irrelevant.

Framing landlords as “they’re bad bc they’re lazy parasites” actually opens you up to further attacks! Several are in fact not lazy, they sometimes do stuff like act as professional middlepeople (“something is broken, it is their job to find someone else who will fix it”). And so they might say “actually, managing property is quite a bit of work therefore landlords aren’t all useless, just the bad ones, therefore we deserve to exist, ha!”

But that’s not the point! The point is that they manipulate a massively necessary need (housing) for their own gain, raising prices while threatening people with homelessness! That’s what’s bad, not the fact that they’re “lazy”. You could have the most hardworking landlord in the world, and it would still contribute to harm.

i mean this so seriously if you have any sort of creative project you can and should be a little obsessed with it. you should reread your own writing and look at your own art and brag about your ocs its literally good for your health

This recently came across my timeline on Twitter ala @coelasquid and it’s too good not to include.

Kelly Turnbull is so fucking wise
