“You shouldn’t self-ID as ADHD/autistic, you’re turning a very real mental condition into a trend” Ok then stop saying delulu. Stop speculating on which cluster C personality disorder the criminals you hear about on the news have. Stop saying “schizoposting” and “acoustic” and “is it restarted?” Stop using “psycopath” and “sociopath” as catch-all ways of calling someone a bad person. Stop saying “the intrusive thoughts won” when you bleach your hair and then turn your nose up at people who suffer from very real, very scary urges of physical/sexual violence. Stop saying “I’m so OCD” as a way of calling yourself neat. Stop treating BPD/ASPD/Bipolar as inherently abusive. Stop saying “OP I am living in your walls” without tagging for unreality. Stop diagnosing complete strangers you’ve never met on r/AITA with NPD.
You first. If you don’t want our disabilities to be treated like trends then stop belittling and minimising them. I’ll NEVER judge a person for trying find labels for their symptoms when an apathetic, racist, sexist, ableist healthcare system refuses to. But I will absolutely judge a hypocrite. Which a lot of you are

people refuse to see the violence it takes to maintain the status quo as such and instead fear the hypothetical violence it will take to destroy it. they see the current order of things as a state of stasis and inaction, instead of as a violent order upheld by constant action, which can be undone by action

"I don't want to read this" is totally valid.
"This is disgusting to me" is totally valid.
"I don't want to read this because it is disgusting to me" is totally valid.
"I don't think anyone should be allowed to read or write this because it is disgusting to me" is authoritarian.

My redesign hot take is that if you’re aiming to “desexualize” a female character, don’t make her boobs smaller. You’re implying a lot here.

tiktok objectively sucks in a lot of ways but I will admit that getting to witness thousands of allegedly heterosexual young women have an identity crisis in real time after attending Olivia Rodrigo's Guts tour is both a) not something I'm seeing on tumblr and b) an absolutely magical experience

Cw for a mention of medical rape and talk of all sorts of abuse centering around intersexism:
I get that people have trauma with men and everything. I, too, was chased for an hour by a man in a car at age 11 calling me a bitch and telling me to get in; I, too, have had a group of adult men discussing physically harming me in public; I, too, have had B*n S*apiro steal one of my tiktoks to throw me to the harassment of his audience
But why are yall so afraid of strange men and not strange women? My experience as an intersex little girl was extreme social torment by little girls and adult women and my own mom and the first person to rape me was a pretty blonde female obgyn who wanted to punish and humiliate me for clearly being sexually active at a young age since I was shaving and not having periods (you know. Bc of the high T puberty)
One of the things that drove me into hiding before covid locked everything down was going out to a carnival with a few friends and having a woman loudly and angrily start harassing me in line for a ride in front of fifty people, threatening to beat me for asking her to stop, asking why i thought it was okay for people like me to leave the house, and neither of my friends said anything, nor did anyone else! The only person who did was her boyfriend who told her to shut the fuck up and apologized to me for her lmao!! I am a dyke who loves being a woman and loves women and women have overwhelmingly traumatized me more than fucking any other demographic. Family, friends, moms and grandma's of friends, women in church, and total strangers in a multitude of settings for most of my fucking life
So when people are talking about how folks that look like me are scary bc I look like a man and men are inherently the scarier ones I have to fucking laugh and then feel miserable and alone because everyone acts like it should be so obvious that of course people are more afraid of men! I was a little girl in the 90s and grew up a girl on the internet and I should totally understand!
But for me, I'm not safe around fucking goddamn anyone and people act like bc I'm an afab woman I must be safe among cis women. It's fucking suffocating. The first person to inappropriately touch me was a girl my own age whose mom regularly beat her and abused her dad and I'm so sick of having it shoved down my throat that we have to be so fucking afraid of men, as queer people, because they are naturally and inherently more abusive and any woman would naturally understand. To the point of openly admitting to fearing people who LOOK what passes as masculine in queer spaces, regardless of their actual identity or gender

I was beyond excited to draw this scene. Normally I get asked to draw romance, but this time it was a...different kind of passion. Something inside Kaz came loose, indeed 💀 It's one of my favourite moments in the book, despite what he just did, because it's when I understood exactly what Inej means to him. It's amazing what we'll forgive in fiction that we couldn't in real life. (commissioned by @litjoycrate for their Six of Crows edition)

Call me a pick me, but if some creator decides to write about a minority group I belong to but that they themselves are not a part of I'll be willing to overlook small inconsequential inaccuracies as long as the big picture feels accurate and respectful. If we want more representation we can't take the burden of making all of our representation ourselves and let outsiders take a shot at it as long as they're willing to do their research and listen to feedback. And if a little nuance or detail escapes the filter of accuracy I wouldn't mind if the whole sum of its parts is still good rep.

some of y'all need to learn how to accept hospitality. stop assuming people are only offering to look after you out of twisted obligation that they don't actually want to do. when you assume that, you are often denying someone the opportunity to genuinely show a friend or stranger love. even if you don't really care about what they're offering, it's respectful of their desire to be kind to accept it anyways.
i had a bunch of girls i've never met over for a women's group. every single one of them denied my offer to make them tea (despite already making myself a mug anyways), get them water, a scone, etc.
i can tell when people refuse to let me be a good host because they "don't want to be a bother". like no!! please be a bother!!! i want to serve you and make you comfortable in my home!
not to be like "we live in a society" but really do live in a modern culture than emphasizes individualism to the point where people will reflexively deny any help or kindness from others for fear of treading on their independence. newsflash: dependence on each other is what makes a community. next time someone offers you kindness, accept it instead of making excuses for why you don't need it. otherwise you've robbed both yourself of being loved and someone else from showing love.
