im not really a fan of how much media and esp literature in recent years feels like its been built around the idea of fandom. characters tailor-made to appeal to a specific demographics, tropes and plots recycled over and over and packaged with a neat new bow. it really makes a lot of popular media feel stale these days
my apologies if this has already been posted here but im sharing this. here is what someone said on twitter along w this image:
the central image text reads: 鈥淍everyone I HAVE BEEN RELIABLY INFORMED GUARDIAN JOURNALISTS ARE SNOOPING AROUND ASKING FOR TRANS PEOPLE TO TALK TO THEM ABOUT DIY HRT. THEY ARE PARTICULARLY LOOKING FOR UNDER-18S DOING DIY. SHOULDN'T NEED TO BE SAID, BUT DO. NOT. ENGAGE. SPREAD WIDELY. DO NOT ENGAGE. WE NEED THIS NOTICE SPREAD OUT VIA EVERY GRASSROOTS SUPPORT GROUP AND SOCIAL CIRCLE IN THE COUNTRY.
URGENT. IF THEY GET EVEN ONE TO TAKE PART IT BECOMES A NATIONAL CONVERSATION. TOP ALERT.
Guardian journos are apparently asking trans people about DIY. Trans followers: DO NOT SAY ANYTHING TO THEM. NOT A WORD.
I also know I鈥檝e got cis mutuals who have written for the Guardian. Please know I鈥檝e always thought less of you because of that.
was lamenting the fact that my eczema is flaring up when the thought "the itcher" popped into my head fully formed and unprompted and now i can't stop laughing
out of sheer morbid curiosity i decided to listen to a bunch of taylor swift music and i can safely say: This is like the most nothing music ive ever heard. This is like ordering a burger and getting bread with nothing. It's the same song repeated 12 times
