sabriel is so tired

operation pretend to like kid rock

obviously, next time, they should shut us up and double down even harder...

Can't help but notice the graph perverts and egghead pundits and beltway wonks have eaten an L on every strategy decision for years and the "dumbass online tankies" they spend all day deriding have correctly predicted basically everything. Weird stuff. Wonder if there's a lesson for anyone in this.

"hey, sis. you won't think we're giving... you know. incest vibes?"

Thank you! The thing I remember most about the Chili Neighbor discourse was the tortured logic people used to justify it.

"Chinchilla is a WHITE woman COLONIZING her NEIGHBORS and OBJECTIFYING them by cooking up WHITE chili in her WHITE apartment" and so on.

I'm begging for anarchists to add an ounce of manufactured consent to their politics.

still thinking about how conservatives had their own super bowl halftime show to sing about how they can’t enjoy doing normal things during their day because thoughts of children’s genitals not matching their clothing presentation absolutely consume them

reading a dystopian novel about a planet ruled almost entirely by one relatively small faction, a death-driven petroculture led by elites who spend decades weakening the mental abilities of their subjects until they react with rage at any attempt to be educated by other factions

422kit: i am proud to be a trans woman who is comfortable with my facial & body hair & im so tired of people acting as if women like me dont exist Paired with the "how do you do fellow kids" meme, but with top surgery scars and a vial of testosterone

"Actually the illustration was powerful, AS A TRANS WOMAN!"

Transfem language appropriation has to stop.

Men will flaunt their lack of emotional intelligence and empathy, then turn around and act like women who have those things are self-evidently less intelligent as if that doesn't obviously prove the exact fucking opposite, and we're all just supposed to treat them with respect and patience.

Demeter's daily checklist for Adrastus.

Deprive him of any love and motherly affection: ✅

Goad him into killing Persephone: ✅

Give him logic problems he'll never solve: ✅

Misgender him: ❌ (J/k. Even Demeter has standards.)

Remind Adrastus of his eternal inferiority: ✅

now that i think about it, this is the case for most melons. like a really good one is transcendental, but it happens so rarely.

as long as you're dead! >_< but seriously, if you've never had a really good ripe honeydew i understand. even experiencing it is cruel, because you'll chase it for the rest of your life and eat a lot of really disappointing melons.

oh we're fighting now...

i don't think the majority of them even do it consciously. it's just that "reactionaries who function entirely on vibes" is their whole identity. it's what makes them such easily wielded tools for the oligarchs and conservative extremists.

there are a specific variety of comfortable white moderates who think they are good and that they support "human rights" for minorities but get really uncomfortable and shifty when those rights start pushing beyond minimum tolerance and vague platitudes and towards equality.

Lilith, a punk hacker girl who transitioned the old fashioned way. And then trans android girl who's gone through multiple bodies to get here so doesn't count as much for this.

A sci-fi gal who works for a vampire. There's nanotech involved, but it only does about as much as HRT.

Olivia dressed as Bridget, she had puberty blockers and then HRT. (Also a cameo from her butch cis girlfriend Eliza and magically genderbent trans gal Emily.)

Nat, who's gone more butch with her transition and her taller cis butch girlfriend Golnar.

Some trans gals of mine who haven't had magical genderbends. To show trans fems drawn by a trans fem.

i notice a lot of similarities in this tendency to treat us as the root of our own oppression in how a certain majority of white people will talk about black men and women as being too "angry"

My mind goes random places sometimes, and I figure, why not make it a thread. It is in that spirit I bring to you:

Proving trans activists being too aggressive online did not cause a backlash that resulted in poorer public opinion and the rollback of trans rights with facts and logic.

does anyone know any new interesting industrial music acts? i wanna listen to something that sounds like machines the size of mountains fucking...

yeah, it's a whole phenomenon. i'm on multiple block lists that basically consist of "people who noticed them doing this and told them to knock it off."

they also get very upset and shrill about how your a regressive and bad lgbtq+ person if you mention their tendency to do this, much less complain about it. it also seems to be mostly, but not exclusively, a thing a subset of transmasc artists do most often. they also get upset if you mention this.

*rest of the internet. anyway, they are always doing this thing where they use gross caricatures of trans women as shibboleths for radical gender abolition, non-conformity, and fuckery, as opposed to women.

for lgbt fandom, i mean. it's not calling it an actual fandom, but rather a kind of lgbtq+ person who treats the community as a fandom. the tendency grew right alongside fandom culture, mostly on tumblr, and then spread to the treat of the Internet.

"tumblr queers" is probably a better synonym.

Are there people who keep there beards after they transition or whatever, yeah sure idk. But we can at least agree they are over represented in the tenderqueer industrial complex, right?

Excluding context cause it already seems figured out. But, I do think it’s incredible how much lgbt fandom graphic design I’ve seen depicting trans women with beards and how that compares to my lived experience of knowing none after 15 years of orbiting the fandom
