Nick’s Hyperfixation Dump

[Image ID: A series of tags stating #i will NEVER forget the one time i got a reddit account and went on r/traaaa #and immediately saw a post that was like #'i dont understand why people would want to be trans men. because women are pretty and clean and graceful and men are stereotypically not?' #like this isnt an exact quote but they put it JUST as on the nose as this - this isnt an exaggeration of how they worded it #they were being grilled in the comments but like. the fact i have to see this shit all the time is annoying /End ID]

Don't even get me started on trans subreddits oh my lord. I was already put off a little bit when I first went on there because there was such an imbalance in how many trans women there were compared to trans men. Which isn't necessarily bad, but I'm not part of that demographic. But the fact they REGULARLY contained posts that either put down, dismissed, or were generally weird towards trans men and mascs was really frustrating to me. I left there a long time ago for that exact reason, so I can't remember a lot of exact stuff (I remember a lot of people being weird as hell in the comments when a trans man DID actually post. Genital swapping, putting down their experience, etc) but I'm sure people who regularly skimmed there when it was still going know what I mean. Unless it changed to be better after I left then maybe you don't.

Tiktok can be pretty bad about it too, but I don't see as much of it on there. Just erasure of transman and masc experiences in favor of transfem. Though I do see a lot more transmen on there in general.

But Tumblr was like the first place I saw transmen posting about the crap we have to deal with. Which was such a breath of fresh air. Even if tumblr as a whole doesn't really seem to care there is a niche that exists and can be seen. Which is much more than there ever was on r/traaaa, or any trans space on tiktok.

It's important to talk about transwomen and transfem experiences, so incredibly important because they're just as much a part of the community as anyone else. But so are transmen and transmasc experiences. It's so annoying. I'm so glad you mentioned reddit specifically though that website was so terrible with that stuff when I was on there.

looking at this image everyday and reading it like it's an affirmation

You get there and all the pretty boys look up from drinking from the reservoir and gallop away like gazelle

is this a safe space to say that i’ve never understood the “don’t trust the mage” gimmick that da fans have been doing for like 10 years and are now carrying over to bg3. i think morrigan & anders are both very straightforward about the fact that they have semi-private agendas that the pc’s self-interest won’t always align with. i’ve never considered either of them having “too much” agency to be a betrayal—same with gale’s secret, which he shares in act 1 out of concern for you anyway. and what about merrill, dorian, vivienne, shadowheart, and wyll. solavellans it’s literally just your man who’s the problem 🫰

correct. no further comment.

saw this massive onion bigger than my entire hand in the produce aisle and immediately snatched it up solely to weigh it and a guy across the aisle asked how much it weighed because he was curious as well and when i told him it was two pounds he excitedly was like “it’s like the biggest one i’ve ever seen..” humanity rocks moment. bonding with strangers over giant onion

Sometimes fanfiction is a love letter to canon, and sometimes fanfiction is pounding on canon's door and yelling for it to get out here so you can kick its ass.

Hi, I'm the OP, and I want you to know that this is the reblog that made me laugh the most.

Tons of folkel of all genders and gender modalities: *tell about how egg jokes have actively harmed them*

Some of you: but that’s my emotional support misgendering >:((( [frowny face emoticon]

wow this is too intimate to share with my close friends or family let me put this on my tumblr blog for hundreds of strangers to see

The wise man, when caught naked in public, covers not his junk but his face.

The dissappearance of kid websites like club penguin, webkinz, poptropica is a curse on us all. Adults need to know they can exist without being child freindly but kids deserve fun spaces meant for them that are not social medias. Flash games i miss you

The rich are villains!

Big fan of characters realizing they don't get to die. They have to live. And grow. And be a person. And deal with shit they thought they'd never have to. And be fucked up about it. I would like more of this. Enough dying for honor or as redemption. It ain't. You're just a corpse. There is no moral value in dirt time.

BTW for anyone too lazy to do the math a wage of $125 a day works out to about $15/hour for an 8-hour workday so..... someone in 1923 definitely had a vision of the future

a post can be about like grieving your dead grandma and bitches on this site will reblog “this is me w that old man who used to cum down my throat he tasted so good i miss him”

there is, in fact, a "platonic explanation for this" if you're not a coward

its so fun to see the diversity of tags on this ranging from "they're literally just standing next to each other" to "deep bonds dont have to be romantic/sexual!" to "yeah friends can fuck nasty, platonically. coward." we're all so correct, there are, in fact, a million platonic explanations for this

There’s something deeply comforting about sitting in a quiet room and listening to the sound of rain tapping on the window.
