This is Jade. She just met the biggest dogs she's ever seen. But quickly learned they have the biggest hearts too. 13/10 for all (TT: catimtins.pscal)

Rest in power

I would watch people say "no one should be fired for what they say/like/write in fandom or journalism" while actively going out of their way to try and get me fired. Or trying to get OTHER black people fired.

Because we used OUR rights to free speech to say something they dislike about race/racism

I've just never met a single free speech absolutist - whether in fandom, politics, etc - that actually thinks EVERYONE should get to say what they want.

In fact, I've met - and been subject to health and career ruining harassment from - free speech absolutists who want to punish black people for 🗣️

You can talk about how men suffer because of masculinity until the end of time, and it's not even completely false, but the catch is that gender is still hierarchical. They're still empowered to see any drawbacks as an affront to the privileges they feel entitled to by virtue of being men.

I think people who are drawn to the liberal talking point that patriarchy harms (cishet) men too don't really understand that misogynistic men already believe themselves to be the true victims of patriarchal society. It's part of why they insist that women owe them sex and deference.

They will get angry when trans women enjoy the trappings of womanhood, but they will sometimes get even angrier when trans women say that womanhood is just subordination. They will interpret every possible relation a trans woman could have to womanhood as misogyny because they're transmisogynists.

They want there to be something wonderful beneath, so they rehabilitate reproduction itself, Catholic style, and refuse to look too closely at how that's socially constructed and coercive too. Or they treat it as glorious and terrible at once, and reframe misogynistic oppression as a badge of honor.

The transphobia itself doesn't come up in this screenshot, but anti-transmasculinity is one conceptual step away from this, and the weapon they'll hand you so you can feel more secure in the 'value' you have under patriarchy is transmisogyny. The logic all just runs together.

This is what 'womanhood as biological reality' is really about. It's teleology, treating it like some sort of social ill if you're not positive enough about the possibility of pregnancy. Romanticizing reproductive capacity becomes 'pro-woman,' any challenge must be stamped out.

It really cannot be overstated how this type of traditionalist propaganda has worked its way into liberal and radical spaces through transphobic feminism. It's the same rhetorical trick--not accepting 'womanhood' (defined as reproductive capacity, naturalized as neutral) is 'misogyny.'

Hmmmm. I dont think so. Astrology is inextricably tied to religion and deities, as Babylonians literally understood the planets as omens of divinity as every planet IS a diety. There is no way to separate that from astrology.

Yes but astrology hits different when you are not lol

I love theories like this. I'm reminded of a friend in Klamath Falls who used to preach at a local church, and fervently believed in a genderless God.

The world we live in - rigidly patriarchal and binary - is entirely our own doing, and we have the power to undo it.

I kind of have lost faith in cf since my goals haven’t been getting met but if you would like to help a lesbian stay housed you can send funds (ca+ v: liberationlex) or share this!

Soda literally kept me alive when an SBO d/t IBD meant I couldn't eat anything and we were not near my normal hospital, so you can call it "junk food" if you want to, but that's not a scientific or medical judgement.

Harvard Relents After Protracted Fight Over Slave Photos

Harvard University will relinquish its ownership of two haunting images of an enslaved father and his daughter after settling a six-year legal battle with a woman who says she is their descendant.

Hey guys, I really hate to do this but I'm currently way behind on my credit card bill due to unemployment. If anybody could help me with this I'd be forever grateful, and I promise to pay anybody back once I find a steady gig.

like ONG, I'll never stop saying that the leftism label will NEVER be for me bc if this is the type of freaks that (esp Black) MaGes have to deal with on the regular within the "community"?? Fuck all the way off!!!!!

Any "leftist" who seriously gives af about any type of "masculinity" and believes that challenging young men to reject misogyny is "alienating" them is just a fucking fascist and dangerous for women, fems and girls. I've never seen a demographic so useless--

But asking young men to behave as if they are responsible to others is indeed an attack on masculinity, at least so far as masculinity is defined as the entitlement to behave with indifference to others' dignity and wellbeing.

Brownmiller once emailed me to argue that Emmett Till was asking for it (in response to a brief mention of her in a profile of Ishmael Reed). Dropped it when she realized I was a “person of cclor” [sic] and thus presumably incapable of reasoned discussion on the issue
