okay but is it really okay to suggest someone might be a trans woman? are trans women really uniquely oppressed? do trans women deserve the language to talk about their experiences? is transmisogyny real? what if a lot of trans women *are* reprehensible perverts who need to be socially ostracized and harassed off the website? are you sure it isn't just a coincidence or a fluke that trans women keep getting banned and harassed? okay no but really are you sure it isn't misgendering or evil or abuse to suggest someone might be a trans woman, like actually though?

Obsessed with this bit in the preface to the 10th Anniversary edition of Ancillary Justice:

Specifics aside, "I thought this would be fun and relaxing. It was not." is a great summation of what happens with like 80% of creative endeavors.

(hornier than I have ever been in my life) I need to hug her and tell her everything's going to be okay

I do find it kind of grating that people on this site love passing around articles about how the youth don't have a very good command of computer systems, but then also never seem to fully understand that it's possible to engage with media (esp music) (yes, legally) outside the context of streaming services, or what that does for you as a consumer. Like, the call is coming from inside the house kiddos.

they'll say the damn kids don't know how to use the computer and then immediately pass around advice on using computers that indicates they can barely operate their browser without freaking out & sincerely believe every forwarded email from their grandma about fake viruses that they ever read.

Everytime I see a cis lesbian complaining about the ‘masc shortage’ I think of this image

Like they are acting like all the butches are being brainwashed into being trans men lmao

For every cis butch lesbian that finds out they are actually a trans man there is a trans butch lesbian who comes out to replace them. The natural balance of butches.

"I don't like projecting gender identities onto other people" you won't even stop calling trans women bro

It already drives me up the wall how many people's trans and nonbinary and agender interpretations of autistic characters seems to begin and end at an infantilizing "well he just doesn't get gender and never thinks about it because his autism just makes it too hard to understand it" and denying the possibility for autistic people to have any agency or complexity in their internal understanding of gender and identity. But it's made even worse by the fact that it is so often said as a rejection of people portraying those characters as any form of transfem.

Like someone will straight up be like "here's my interpretation of this character she is transfem and agender" and people will go "That doesn't make any sense because HE would NEVER be transfem HE wouldn't ever grow out his hair or wear a dress he would be agender and present and dress and use pronouns in the way I perceive to be the neutral and normal way" like. Get a grip. Think about your own biases for one second.

cars should not be the dominant mode of transportation but we should keep them around to have sex in

You’re in her dms I left her on read for 6 weeks because I’m emotionally incompetent

watching a murder movie but shaking my head the whole time so people know I don't agree with the fascistic propaganda of the intruder harming the ideal suburban life

Tumblr is full of people whose favorite rapper 100% would have been Drake if they didn't learn about him a week ago from the Kendrick beef.

it’s so crazy how many mid movies r made every year that u wouldve never learned abt if ur mutual didnt want to fuck an actor that plays in them

it's not great how much covid safety messaging has become crystallised around the rhetoric of like, "becoming disabled is the ultimate unthinkable calamity and will ruin your life" like avoiding infectious diseases is good (socially and individually) and it's true post-acute illnesses can be severe and life-altering. but i don't like seeing this attitude toward disability as though it's this unimaginable alien horror or as though you can guarantee you will avoid it by doing all the 'right' things. most of us will experience disability at some point in our lives, for many of us it will be permanent, it's not a moral failure or some kind of distant spectral threat but a present reality, and that needs to be integrated into any kind of public health advocacy or messaging. & not least because. people who are already disabled are also hearing that messaging and are also vulnerable to covid complications.
