That time Graham Linehan and his cult of TERF devotees decided that women with polycystic ovary syndrome are men. The only aggressive man showing contempt for women’s boundaries here is him.

[image description: a screenshot of Graham Linehan quotetweeting Twitter user dizzyborden1972 “Yeah we know. You're just an aggressive man showing contempt for women's boundaries.” dizzyborden1972 had said, “I do gotta say it's going to be interesting if one of you dudes actually tries to physically stop me from using the restroom just because PCOD makes me hairy and I rarely do performative femininity. I may have to "stand my ground."”]

you have to go to work so you can pay for your doctor, who is not taking your insurance right now, and if you say i can't afford the doctor's you are told - get a better job. it is very sad that you are unwell, yes, but maybe you should have thought about that before not having a better job.

(where is the better job? who is giving out these better jobs? you are sick, you are hurting - how the hell are you supposed to be well enough for this better job?)

but you go to the doctor because you had the nerve to be hurt or sick or whatever else. and they tell you that it is because you have anxiety. you try your best. you are a self-advocate. you've done the reading (which sometimes pisses them off worse, honestly). you say it is actually adding to my anxiety, it is effecting my quality of life. so they say that you are fat. they say that all young people have this happen to them, isn't it a medical marvel! they say that you should eat more vegetables. they say that you probably just need to lose a little more weight, and that you are faking it for attention.

(what attention could this doctor possibly give? what validation? that's their fucking job, isn't it?)

there is always a hypochondriac, right. someone always tells you about a hypochondriac. or someone who is unnecessarily aggressive during the worst days of their life. or someone looking "for a quick fix". or some idiot who wasn't educated about how to properly care for themselves who just abandons their treatment. and again, the hypochondriac, the overly-cautious hysteric. these people don't deserve to be treated like humans (right), and since you might be one of these people, you also don't get treated like a human. because those people can really fuck with the system, you now have to pay for it. and besides. you're actually probably faking it.

(more often than not, you find a 2:1 ratio of these stories. for every "hypochondriac", there are 2 people who knew something was wrong, and yet nobody could fucking find it. the story often ends with pointless suffering. the story often ends with and now it's too late, and it's going to kill me.)

you are actually just making excuses. someone else got that procedure or that diagnosis and he's fine, you should be fine too. someone else said they watched a documentary about other inspirational people with your exact same condition, maybe you should be inspirational, too. you're just too morbid. your pain and your experience is probably just not statistically concerning. it is all self-reported anyway, and you're just being a baby.

(once, while sitting down in the middle of making coffee, you had the sudden, horrible thought - i could kill myself to make the pain stop. you had to call your best friend after that. had to pet your dog. had to cry about it in the shower. you won't, but that moment - god, fuck. the pain just goes on and on.)

you know someone who went in for routine surgery and said i still feel everything. they told her to just relax. it took her kicking and screaming before they figured out she wasn't lying - the anesthetic drip hadn't been working. you know someone who went in for severe migraines who was told drink water and lose weight. you know someone who was actively bleeding out and throwing up in the ER and was told you're just having a bad period.

in the ER there are always these little posters saying things like "don't wait! get checked today!" and you think about how often you do wait. how often the days spool out. you once waited a full week before seeing the doctor for what you thought was a sprained wrist. it had actually been broken - they had to rebreak it to set it.

but you go into the doctor. the problem you're having is immediate. the person behind the counter frowns and says we're not taking your insurance. you will be paying for this out-of-pocket.

they send you home with tylenol and a little health packet about weight loss or anxiety or attention deficit. on the front it has your birthday and diagnosis. you think about crying, and the words swim. it might as well say go fuck yourself. it might as well say you're a fucking idiot. it might as well say light your money on fire and lie down in it. and the entire fucking time - the problem persists.

it's okay. it's okay, it's just another thing, you think. it's just another thing i have to learn to live with.

#spilled ink #warm up #can you tell what i'm mad about today specifically #i will say that there are a LOT of things that go into this. like a lot. this is ungendered and unspecific for a reason #it isn't just sexism. it's also racism. and ableism. and honestly classism. #and before a healthcare professional reads this as a personal attack: i understand ur burnt out #we are ALSO burnt out. your situation is also dire. this is not an attack on you. #this is a commentary on the incredible amounts of bigotry that lie at the heart of capitalism #where people have to pay money out of pocket to be told to fuck off. #your job is important. so is our humanity. and if you cannot accept that people are fucking mad as hell #at the industry - you are probably not listening . #anyway at some point im gonna write a piece about sexism specifically in medical shit #but i don't want terfs clowning in it bc they can't understand nuance #> it is true that ppl w/a uterus are more likely to experience medical malpractice & dismissal globally #> it is also true that trans people experience an equally fucked up and bad time in the medical field #> great news! the medical industrial complex is an equal opportunity life ruiner :) #(if you find it necessary to go into a debate about biology while discussing medical malpractice #i want to warn you that you're misunderstanding the issue. because guess what. #cis MEN might experience this. particularly black men. particularly disabled men. #so YES having a uterus can lead to more trouble for you. but this happens a LOT. #instead of fighting those ALSO experiencing your pain.... try working WITH them. #which btw. is like. actual feminism.)

Somerton's misogyny and lesbophobia was fucking blatant and the fact his fans didn't care / notice until a man made a video on it is abhorrent. That IS a problem, people NEED to do better or else bigotry towards women will only continue to be accepted! Lesbians were calling this loser out for years and no one cared!

hey. as a lesbian who watched somerton's videos you have to understand that it wasn't "fucking blatant" and it was embedded between smart (stolen) points in the structure of the argument, and was given fake "evidence" to prove it --- something hbomberguy specifically shows with every example. i personally always noticed that it was weird and it was always a critical point when watching his videos (and also uh, side note but you shouldn't primarily go to cis white men for good takes about feminism and the lesbian experience anyways --- like, you should be watching a diverse intake of thought from underrepresented creators and understand that the cis/white/male perspective will always be limited because it's not universal)

to many, though, it for sure didn't register as a pattern of behavior until the instances were laid out. saying that audiences were "abhorrent" for "excusing" it just shows a complete lack of sympathy, because again: the pattern of behavior was the problem, and rhetorically each individual instance was relegated to enough plausible deniability where it slipped by most audiences who were probably watching the video in the background while they folded laundry or something. when bigotry is shrouded under the guise of fact, it takes on the affect of truth and abuses the viewer's trust in the creator. sure, media literacy is a huge problem, and i've written and researched so much into that, and yeah yeah audiences should "do better." the reality is though, putting the blame on the audience feels a little misogynistic in itself, bc you're just shifting the blame from the literal people who need to be blamed for practicing bigotry --- cis white men with a large platform.

the real thing u should be saying here is to call for a diversification of one's media intake, but no -- let's blame the audience for getting lied to, instead of uplifting female, queer, trans, poc, etc voices. the only way people "need" to do better, imo, is listening to those people instead and seeking multiple perspectives.

like y'all, let's retire this very new narrative that all james somerton fans were evil misogynists who willingly supported this and need to be destroyed. really most people who watched his content were younger queer people genuinely interested in queer media analysis, film theory, and queer history, probably excited that a long video essay was dedicated to their favorite show/movie/etc, and lets not pretend this wasn't disappointing for them as well. can everyone like chill out.

#hbomberguy #james somerton #like for me personally it was always like. yeah his view is hindered by being a cis white gay man. and when ur a lesbian noncis poc like me #u just kind of accept bigotry like that as inevitable?? fucked up but in that instance u literally just watch fem creators of color instead #DIVERSITY YOUR MEDIA OR DIE!!!!!!!!!! UPLIFT MARGINALIZED VOICES!!!!! STOP BLAMING AUDIENCES FOR BEING DUMB #LITERALLY IF U KNOW ANYTHING ABT MEDIA STUDIES RULE 1 IS AUDIENCES ARE LAZY AND WON'T FACTCHECK #IT'S UP TO CREATORS TO PRESENT THE TRUTH AND UP TO THE LISTENER TO SEEK MULTIPLE PERSPECTIVES

#dungeon meshi #toshiro nakamoto #laios touden #Y'all know it's extremely commun for white autistic men to get away with bigotry because people defend them with “he's autistic” #my ramblings #seriously y'all are being fucking racist calling someone names for not being fine with your “uwu” boy #who kept on touching him and did a couple of micro-agressions #He's an asshole for *check notes* following different cultural norms and having difficulties communicating

Actual comment I received on a post:

“I’m both mentally and physically disabled. Here’s how both have affected me in the same ways. Here’s how I’ve been discriminated against due to both in the same ways… and that’s why physically disabled people need their own community that excludes mentally disabled people! Cripple Punk is only for physically disabled people! Stop punching down!”

#bitch I literally use a wheelchair #I could not be more physically disabled #sorry that me addressing your bigotry is causing you to have to think but that’s not punching down #it’s punching bigots #CPunk #CripplePunk #cripple punk #exclusionists not welcome #MERDs can fuck off

[bifrosted-flakes]

You guys HAVE to stop putting punk on a pedestal

#punks are not uniquely kind they’re not uniquely non-bigoted you’ve just never been to a concert #also racists are in punk spaces! sexists are in punk spaces! the most violent homophobic shit can come from guys in battle vests #learn to recognize bigotry in your community and fight it #instead of pretending that since they’re ‘obviously not real punks’ you don’t have to care #punk is not a fucking political stance it’s a music genre and a subculture wearing big boots is not praxis

[apostate-in-an-alcove]

The audacity of straight people to demand that LGBTQ people respect and accept homophobic/transphobic religious beliefs and family members, as if those beliefs are merely harmless opinions and not the deeply bigoted and harmful ideas that they are.

#lgbtq #i don't mean to get on my soap box but holy shit this crap gets me heated #fuck your religious beliefs #no one is obliged to respect them if they're rooted in bigotry #if you think homosexuality is a sin you're a filthy bigot #cry about it and actually try being fucking decent for once #tw homophobia

"American individualism has a lot of problems and can lead to a loss of supportive community networks" - true, a problem worth talking about

"Individualism is a poison and anyone who wants to maintain a level of independence from their family, culture, or community is suspect" - BAD. WRONG AND BAD. THIS IS EXTREME CONSERVATISM DRESSED UP IN A PROGRESSIVE HAT

#the immediate backlash to anything perceived as american culture on this site is wild #like . . . the general idea on this site of 'community' as an inherent good that is always supportive #as though the concept of community hasn't constantly driven bigotry and fear and hatred of 'outsiders' #as though people throughout history haven't been forced to conform to all sorts of gender and class and social roles #'for the good of the community' #and obviously i'm not trying to swing the other way here. communities ARE important. support networks ARE important. #but they're not like. inherently progressive? #this is specifically about a comment on a post about unions in which someone claimed your individual voice isn't important in a union #YES IT IS. YES IT FUCKING IS OH MY FUCKING GOD #YOU NEED TO GO TO YOUR UNION MEETINGS AND MAKE YOUR VOICE HEARD. UNIONS ARE NOT MAGICAL ENTITIES WHO WILL SIMPLY SOLVE ALL YOUR PROBLEMS #YOU HAVE TO PARTICIPATE AND YOU HAVE TO MAKE SURE THAT YOUR UNION *IS* ACTUALLY REPRESENTING YOU PROPERLY #and like . . . you're allowed to be angry at decisions your union makes! i'm mad at my union all the fucking time! #i will ABIDE by the union's decision but I DON'T have to be happy about it and I'm DEFINITELY allowed to kick up a fuss if I want!

sorry but im never forgiving people for excusing actual bigotry and assault because it was against someone they didn’t like

#like holy fucking shit #the amount of people ive seen who just straight up lie and make shit up to justify what they’re saying #if i see one more tumblr user saying ‘based gumball’ because he physically assaulted someone and called them slurs im -> #blowing this website to smitherines #USING SLURS AGAINST SOMEONE IN ANY CONTEXT IS BAD #saying to your friends in private or calling yourself that is fine #but USING A SLUR AGAINST SOMEONE ELSE WITH THE INTENTION TO HARM IS NEVER EVER OKAY #ASSAULTING PEOPLE IS ALSO BAD!!!!!!! #i dont care ‘if they deserve it’ DO NOT ASSAULT PEOPLE BECAUSE YOU THINK THEY’RE BAD!!! #anyways sorry for a tangent but this has been pent up for a minute #seeing someone claim that ‘dream bought a minor liquor and recorded it for blackmail #’ does something to a person yk #dreamwastaken #dreamblr #tw assault mention #tw slur mention #tw bigotry mention #antis actually go fuck yourselves <3

i don't fucking knowwwwww. i got fucking blasted on twitter for being like. have none of you actually experienced irl bigotry because i have and it's not something i would actively choose to emulate????? in any context????

like this is what was happening back in october. yeah, very cool, very funny to quote tweet a guy calling glenn a fag for tweeting in support of california legalizing gay marriage and say he was "ahead of his time". for. using a slur. everyone is so fucking irony brainrotted it hurts.

and again.

just an ounce of self awareness..... please.... anyone........ how do you almost get there and yet not see the problem.....

#ask ada #people are gonna fucking call me cringe for this but i'm just. blown away at how goddamn stupid sunnytwt mamages to be #consistently. #how do you just. not have a problem with this. #nevermind the fact that everyone's like 'lmao true he is a woman' but. if he WAS. stealth trans... #are you really dying on that hill and misgendering him bc you're (whether jokingly or not) clocking him as 'afab'???? #and then insisting he is a woman despite transitioning?!??!?!?!?!? im ???? ? ? #you are no better than the fuckin transvestigators #this bitch is doing the same thing. putting 'his' in quotes and saying he will never be able to hide 'his female frame' #ITS. DERANGED. WHY WOULD YOU DO THIS SHIT. BE NORMAL #if your jokes are indistinguishable from actual bigotry you need to shut the hell up 💕💕💕💕 #also. if youre IN this post. just. think about it. i'm not trying to start shit i just need y'all to fuckin consider how this affects ppl #whether its self hatred deflected back outward or ur doing it unthinkingly bc the rest of twt is also doing it #🧍🧍🧍🧍🧍🧍

You know what came out when I was 12? Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix. HP was my bible.

This meme is so accurate it hurts.

#harry potter #millennial #marauders #marauders era #dead gay wizards #i can hate jkr but ill probably never lose hardy potter #fuck her and fuck her bigotry #but what she created was so much bigger than she will ever be #and she baaaaaarely created the marauders anyway #ill take your afterthought and your background and your plot device and i will love them like my own #the marauders were never hers #they were always ours #including in 2003 when i was very very very into how hot Sirius was #or sirius and james #or whatever #anyway they were always everything when i was young

[tamlindair]

You are stupid if you think you can defend the current genocide of Palestinians by Israel because Muslims have killed ppl in the past. It doesn't work that way. This isn't tit for tat. This isn't oh someone of your religion fucked up in the past so y'all deserve death today. No. It's standing in the right side, standing in the side of the oppressed and so many of y'all cannot understand how to do that. And that's actually fucking pathetic.

No minority was harmed with a game bro

I assume you're talking about Hogwarts Legacy, and in extension about the Harry Potter universe.

There are multiple topics to dig into on this one, but I'm gonna keep it short:

The game has Jewish-coded characters (goblins), including many dogwhistles and using shofar as "just a trinket that goblins used to annoy wizards", when shofar holds huge significance to Jewish people. You're basically suppressing a slave uprising as the main story of the game.

The main creator behind the game, the one who wrote the story itself, was a far right neon@zi. Even tho they kicked him off team, they didn't change the story.

The goblins are believed to steal children = blood libel.

You can own slaves (house elves) in the game.

The only trans character is named Sirona (like sir, y'know).

To expand more on why Harry Potter universe is harmful:

Werewolves are coded as gay people with AIDS. Lupin being the only responsible one.

Using Dumbledore being gay as a distraction from when the book sales started dropping because he wasn't this pure nice person.

Again, so much racism, including the names of the characters and stereotypization. And antisemitism.

So much sexism as well. Someone tell me why Tonks didn't stay this bright vibrant character and settled down to more conservative look.

Rowling recently said that she wrote Death Eaters as a symbol for LGBT community "pushing their agenda". The only agenda LGBT people push is wanting basic human rights.

Rowling actively promoting transphobia AND getting money off the game as well, using the money to then harm trans people. She stated that any purchase of anything from her she considers as an agreement with her bigotry.

And yes, I realize this wasn't in good faith, but maybe someone reads it and changes their opinion anyways.
