Aro mlm: your attraction to men is not dirty or wrong. It is still pure and good, and attraction to men isn’t softened or “made better” by romance. You are not predatory or abusive. You are you, and that’s plenty good enough, and to be admired.

do you ever wonder if Pip and Jane Baker’s pillow talk was as florid and convoluted as their dialogue

scribbles I’m going to kill you in real life

Stop telling your Black friends about the antiblack shit your friends and family say and do if you never plan on checking them.. and even then.. chill the fuck out. We are not diaries or a void you can unleash your guilt filled anecdotes into.

is this ok to reblog if you’re not black?

Yes. It is meant for non black people to read and reblog quietly. Thank you for asking.

since the ace community loves to erase lgbt identities i’m coining the term erace

what

there’s literally an ace flag for halsey who is very out about her sexuality

ive never heard of that but that sounds gross since shes bi but like i do not see what that has to do with all asexuals or “the ace community”

y’all are trying to steal jughead a canonically gay coded character

“canonically gay coded”

also if u rlly wanna say hes gay,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, he can still be ace too because,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, gay aces exist

have you not read like any of the old archie comics ??? and yes bc gay men need to be further desexualized

yes i have thats why i said
“
#i understand arguing he was queer coded in the past tho”

and wow okay i guess im desexualizing myself by existing as a gay ace thanks

don’t use the q slur please & don’t expect me to read petty tags

taking a heavily gay coded character & making him ace is still erasure &

yeah?? isn’t that the point of being ace?? to desexualize yourself??

what the fuck

im just gonna save this for every time an aphobe thinks they fucking know what they’re talking about

if ur cis dont fucking tell trans people they’re pretending to be trans. i dont care if you’re not straight. the trans intracommunity discussion on dysphoria is not for you to fucking touch.

If you’re trans don’t tell people they’re pretending either, though.

It feels like this is giving respectability politics and invalidating trans/nb/gq people more authenticity than it deserves, as long as the person invalidating trans people is trans themself. Framing those things as an “intracommunity discussion” is really harmful.

A man saying “there are only two genders, and genderqueer is not one of them, so you’re just pretending” (to put the typical position kindly) is not okay, regardless of whether that man is cis or trans. Even if he frames it as just a political opinion or an intracommunity discussion, that doesn’t change what it is and the harm it does.

I get that this post isn’t directed at trans people, but intentionally or not, it legitimizes treating people’s identities as a debate in the first place.

friendly reminder that when a bisexual person vents to you about feeling like they’re faking and actually straight “then stop calling yourself bisexual”, “trust your feelings”, etc. are not the answers they need to hear

Au where Scotty is Australian

“Nah, Cap, no chance of getting these engines going in the next hour. We’re up shit creek without a paddle for a while.”

“Turn the bloody heating down, Spock, it’s dry as a dead dingo’s donger in here!”

“I’ll see you tomorrow, Doc, it’s been a day of hard yakka and I’m drinking with the flies tonight.”

“Beam me out, would ya? I’m in the middle of bloody woop woop and I feel like a shag on a rock.”

why does scotto want to engage in sexual intercourse on top of a rock

this post is hilarious considering cardozzza was one of the diehard defenders of discourseprincessa, who was a cis woman pretending to be an intersex trans woman to get away with attacking people

this shitwipe was constantly telling inclusionist trans women to die and making other violent remarks lol which many trans women were calling out lol

and on top of that also claimed to be a “messianic” jewish person which many jewish people have said time and time again is not a thing and is antisemitic as fuck

and don’t come at me with that “but we were manipulated! stop hanging this over our heads!” because even if she wasn’t lying about who she was she was still claiming to be a “messianic” jewish person and threatening trans women!!

and that shit’s not suddenly unacceptable only because she turned out to be fucking cis, it was unacceptable to fucking start with!

I’m not gonna sit here and pretend this doesn’t have anything to do with the discourse and is “actually about helping people” because aphobes, cardozza included, have shown time and time again they don’t care about or will even defend when their own pull these kinds of stunts

Here’s some facts about this callout

1. aerf was not coined by them, in fact it was supposedly coined by trans women, and here’s a tweet from June 9th using it before this person did

2. this isn’t “bragging” about blocking trans women; they just remarked that they can block whoever they want after making a post about how nobody’s entitled to their creations

and 3. it is absolutely correct that many trans women have expressed about how aphobes borrow TERF tactics and that it makes them feel afraid and unsafe, especially considering how often aphobes agree with TERFs and think that’s fucking fine

let alone the amount of cis people using “cishet” and saying shit like “saying cis people don’t have a say in transphobia is homophobic”, let alone the amount of people who are super willing to misgender nonbinary people and call us “basically (wo)men” to prove that sga is the main and most important aspect of being LGBT+, let alone their fucking constant intersexism

(this reblog explains it more eloquently)

and there’s a damned lot of people on this post that are completely ignoring all the ableist and misogynistic slurs which btw is an incredibly fucking common thing aphobes have been doing lol

so again this all smells very strongly of being exactly about ace discourse

honestly, y’all need to stop listening to only the trans women and trans people that you personally like lol

a good reply:

tatterdemalionamberite said: I’m so fucking exhausted and enraged that this is going to be (is already being) used as a bludgeon against the trans women whose perspective Nora was boosting in the first place. Oh, and OP isn’t a trans woman either as far as I can tell, they just decided they’re an arbiter of what counts as transmisogyny, now that they can use that against a group of people including trans women that they don’t agree with.

all this said i do think i’m going to block anyone using AERF because it’s painfully incorrect: exclusionists aren’t even tangentially related to any brand of feminism, they’re not radical, and the E in TERF and SWERF was meant to stand for exterminationist instead of exclusionist. AERF has also turned actual trans women calling out transphobic exclusionists into a joke

In anthropological terms, Rickrolling technically qualifies as a “ritual”.

I’m so fucking sick of this fixation on obsolete manufacturing jobs that only get attention because they’re seen as blue collar white man jobs. We’ve lost 90,000 retail jobs since Trump was elected, which is more than the entire coal industry employs. But we’ll never hear a peep about those because that’s work for women and POC.

And fuck all this demagoguing about foreigners stealing your job. A robot stole your job and it’s never coming back. 50 years ago a steel mill producing 500,000 tons of steel wire per year would employ 1,000 people, enough to prop up the economy of a small town. A steel mill with that same output just opened up and it employs, wait for it, 14 people. You won’t even see any humans on the production floor, just watching the monitors in the office above. No pussygrabbing orange fascist is gonna turn back the clock on that one. Oh sure, there was a candidate with a plan to retrain everyone in green technology jobs, but solar panels seem vaguely effeminate, not like the muscular labor of dragging shitty rocks out of the ground for pumping poison into the air. How about we really get back to basics and let dentists stick leeches on you again, there’s a lost source of income they could use. Maybe get some blacksmiths back to work. We’ll have a purely nostalgia-based economy and all the old demographics that we’re comfortable with.
