They didn't start with it either, you just didn't consider anti-trans mobilization a legitimate attack on human rights. /End ID]
oh okay. heart steps right out of my chest and falls down the stairs
ID: Part of a Wikipedia article. Text reads: Because analog television uses radio waves to carry information, some of the white noise is the television receiving microwaves from the cosmic microwave background, an important trace of the Big Bang. NASA describes, "Turn your television to an 'in between' channel, and part of the static you will see is the afterglow of the big bang". This is also true for radio. When it is adjusted to a frequency that is between stations, part of the sound heard is remnant radiation from the Big Bang from around 13.7 billion years ago. End ID
you know what’s a trope that never gets tired is when theyre bouncing around in the plot and suddenly an important name crops up- it’s blorbo bleebus. and some dude is like who the hell is blorbo bleebus. and we immediately cut to our new friend blorbo bleebus pulling the most absolutely buckwild shit you’ve ever seen
enhanced edition of this trope is when they cut to blorbo bleebus doing something entirely contradictory to how they were just introduced, like “i know a professional, someone discreet who can handle things quietly” cut to blorbo bleebus in the wildest fucking bar brawl you’ve ever seen, screaming their own name and stopping to down shots while still holding some dude in a headlock
We need a Dracula movie where they do this with Van Helsing.
we need to destigmatize dropping out of college I am so serious. like dude if u realize that is Bad For You then you can just Leave. I am so fucking serious. just stop. there are other options and you don’t need to force yourself through shit you can’t do and go into debt. i promise you can just Not.
Just saying that like. If you are cis and you want transitional care. If you want vaginoplasty while still being a cis man or phalloplasty while still being a cis woman or feminizing or masculinizing hormones or top surgery or lazer hair removal or anything, anything, anything whatsoever, if there's a part of your body that you want to change but you do not feel compelled to change your gender itself. That's actually super cool and fine. You're not taking anything away from trans people and in fact are contributing to normalizing the blurring of distinct gendered lines. Cis men who look like our idea of women because that's how they want to look. Cis women who look like our idea of men because that's how they want to look. And they're all cis. That's super cool and sexy and awesome and if you are that person and you feel like you need permission from trans people to be that person this is me as a trans person giving you that permission. You don't need it because you can do whatever you want forever but if you feel like you do, this is your permission slip signed by an actual trans person.
By the way this goes for cisallohet people too you don't have to be queer in any way at all to want this you can just be this. And if you change your mind later and decide you do want to change your gender that's your business and nothing means you have to if that's not what will make you happy. When it comes to your gender and gender presentation you should do what will make you happy and figure out the labels as you go, even if those labels are cisallohet.

Heard a guy do a pirate song once and yell out jokes like this to the audience during the bridge. The last one:
Singer: “What’s a pirate’s favorite crime?” The audience, primed by now: “Arr-son!” Singer stops playing, stares at us all reproachfully, says: “Piracy.”
Look, Candy Corn is a vile affront to both taste and texture, and the idea of other people harmlessly enjoying something that is just not personally to my tastes, is obviously an egregious attack on Everything I Believe In, but what's REALLY important is we all agree that
it's Definitely Halloween now 🧡🖤

there was a period of time where shit like "you're actually in a coma, wake up" or "i'm living in your walls" was common on reddit (idk if it still is) and whenever someone acknowledged it's a psychosis trigger they were downvoted to hell and nothing changed 👍
it happened a bit less on places like r/196 but still happened, and even though comments against this were upvoted things never changed
(side note, really fucked up how the first instance of the "your walls" thing i remember is a comment asking someone to not joke about swatting them since they're paranoid and getting this shit as a response. great job on memeing that! you're clearly not ableist and don't view the mentally ill as entertainment! /s)
Does anyone have some cash to spare for a struggling unemployed person… I have no money cuz all of it this week had to go to rent, and I’m rlly hungry, but my unemployment check/deposit doesn’t come till Monday or Tuesday 😭 if anyone is able to, my p4yp4l and v3nm0 usernames are @ keiodeine
Rb if you can pls!! Xoxo
Not a day goes by when I don't think about joe many liberals
Autistic spaces are getting so much more hostile towards people with low empathy, and it sucks
There was a subreddit I really liked, people were chill, and then there was a sudden influx of people making posts like ‘Autistic people have empathy! Saying we don’t makes us seem like monsters! Thats not a symptom!’ And people making posts explaining that no, actually, some of us do have low empathy got attacked and told they were wrong or ableist? And it sucks, because its just so hard to find a place to exist where you can be seen as not evil? I don’t know, it just hurts a lot to be told that

the fact that the people who are against the term transandrophobia call the people who talk about it "transandrophobia truthers" is so deeply uncomfortable to me like
could you have at least picked a less loaded term than "truther" and all of it's baggage with antisemitic conspiracy theories - like - even just a little less loaded
there’s a desperate need to portray trans men as oppressors - painting the very idea of trans men talking about their oppression as being as bad as a cishet misogynistic MRA or an antisemitic radio host like Alex Jones going on a rant
it’s meant to put trans men, trans mascs, and anyone who is in community with them on par with bigots and oppressors who do real harm to marginalized people, but also exposes how little care they have for the harm actual MRAs and right-wing conspiracy theorists do. If you actually gave a shit about antisemitism or misogyny in any real meaningful way you wouldn’t devalue that harm by comparing it to trans men saying they experience oppression for being trans men
I think people have truly lost any ability to be patient with storytelling.
‘I don’t understand this’ They’ll explain it if you wait.
‘I don’t like how this episode left things hanging’ There’s a continuation next week.
‘This character is flat’ Wait for them to be fleshed out.
So many of the complaints I see about shows lately are people being confused by things THAT THE SHOW WANTS YOU TO BE CONFUSED BY THATS THE FUN OF MYSTERY AND FORESHADOWING YOU ABSOLUTE GOBLINS THE MAIN CHARACTER IS ALSO CONFUSED AND THEYRE GONNA DO A BIG REVEAL AND EXPLANATION LATER IF YOU WOULD JUST FUCKING WAIT
that’s not even a bug, its a shrimp
Shrimp is bugs
okay like on a technical level bugs and shrimps are Arthropods, but there is a big ol’ difference
Shrimp is bugs
