Some of yall deeply underestimate how much some cis men are threatened by trans men and our masculinity. How theres so many cis dudes out there that want to rape us, thinking that will make us detransition. How many incels out there are mad at us for betraying womanhood and not sucking their dick. How much they want to force us to detransition, how much they want to kill us and force us into hiding which, to me, minus well be killing us since theyre smothering who we are for the sake of a status quo. We shake their fundamental understanding of the world. Its one thing for a GIRL to be a tomboy to them. They think its cute, like a baby pretending to be an adult. Its a whole other thing for someone percieved as a woman to try to actually be a man to them. They think thw fact we have the gal to assume we can escape their grasp, to escape the kitchen or whatever tf, means we're disrespecting them and trying to "destroy" them, rather than what it really is, us trying to be independent. We're the exact thing these types of cis men hate. Sometimes they tolerate (emphasis here bc im not saying they accept yall. Dont twist my words)trans women bc they fetishize them but they want to completely eradicate us becayse we threaten the patriarchy by virtue of deciding we dont need a man to take care of us, we want to be the man that takes care of ourselves.

#and bc ik how some of yall are on this site and how uncharitable you are let me be clear: just because they TOLERATE trans women/fems #sometimes. doesnt mean i think they actually respect you or see you as you. im not abot to say you somehow have it easier. they want to use #you and then dump your body somewhere. im well aware of that. but they *also* want to entirely entrap us and our identities and keep us #smothered with no escape. its why were seeing child marriage laws. its why were seeing anti abortion laws. its why we're seeing rights #stripped away from ppl wrongly percieved as women becayse theyre so threatened by us and how we think we can be on our own #that they have to try more extreme measures ro control us our bodies and self expression. its why candace owens goes on saying #'does women voting actually do any good for anyone??'#and no. entrapment isnt them somehow caring about us mlre than you. thats their alternative to killing us but its not an alternative bc it #fundamentally strips us of our rights and autonomy. and also. entrapping us and forcing us out of our gender. like i said. minus well be #killing us. its not likely we'll just get to run away free from these men if they get this type of power. its more likely they kill us for #even daring to betray them their values and words.#so how tf is anyone more privileged in this situation? in trans spaces? can we really fucking say someone has it worse rn.#is it really worth it to try to divide and weigh who has it worse. bc they want both os us dead for being who we are.#and its not like they dont offer yall an out to. its just their out is ALSO basically killing yourself bc they want you to conform to #cishet white manhood.#also it goes both ways. cis women are like this towards trans women. its the proximity effect.#where you get more upset with different people who are also more like you than other ppl #the difference i'd argue though is cis men- at least the ones in power- have more of an ability to remove us than cis women #like its easier for them to do.

This from post i saw on tiktok, despise not being active ive been reposting lot of post concerning all these genocides happening cause i feel like it is important to educate ourselves on what’s happening in the world. Especially when our gouvernement and medias dont speak up about whats happening or lie to us about it.

I also hate when people see queer people speaking up for the innocents being k**led in those countries and tell these queer activist « you know those countries dont care about queer people right? They hate queers » and how are those queer people who live in those countries are suppose to be free from oppression if theyre being sl***htered?

Also if you call yourself a feminist or an activist but you dont educate yourself on these injustices happening in the world then you are not a feminist nor an activist. Feminism isnt only about equality among men an women its about equality for all. Even if you only speak about womens issues youre meant to speak about for all women youre meant to educate yourself about all the injustices that happen against women all around the world.

And if you think your voice doesnt matter,it does the boycotting of brands have an impact, speaking up about whats happening have an impact. Use your voice for those that can not speak up for themselves cause trust me it has an impact for exemple here in France,the president banned pro palestine protest but it didnt do anything. In fact french people kept protesting and it made the president call for a ceasefire so yes our voices and actions do have an impact. The more people educate themselves and speak up the better,the more people speak up and take actions like boycotting and protesting the more impact itll have.

And last thing some of y’all really need to learn the difference between antisemitism and antizionism cause saying that supporting palestine is antisemitism is crazy. Also zionist love to act like Is*ael loves jews yet i saw a documentary showing a holocaust survivor picking up vegetables from the ground of a market to feed himself, they treat holocaust survivor like crap in is**el.

Taking a bit of your time to do your research doenst take long so please do so.

one of the absolutely most frustrating things in the western leftist attitude towards "zionism" is that they use zionism to describe something that has its own word. kahanism. but instead they choose to go through hoops to redefine a belief system that ISNT theirs to define. words change overtime, but westerners and goyim dont get to decide what a word that is culturally significant to jews means. and just because the tiny fraction of jews that are antizionist allow you to decide doesnt mean that the wider jewish community who are zionists agree with that.

lets also get one thing clear: zionism is an ancient jewish value. throughout the jewish peoples time in exile away from the land of israel, there was always a strong desire to return to zion, which refers to yerushalayim or the land of israel as a whole. just because someone jew in America might tell you "well i feel no connection to israel" DOESNT MEAN THAT EVERY JEW AGREES.

zionism is the belief that the jewish people deserve self determination in our ancient ancestral land, which encompasses the kingdom of israel and judah. that what it is at its very core. in modern definitions its the idea that the state of israel deserves to continue existing.

ive seen antizionists define zionism as "facism" just a Different ideology, or something along the lines of "kill palestinians" and "take over the world" no where in zionist belief do we think that jews must take over the world, or that palestinians must die for jews to live. or that the modern state of israel must be an exclusively jewish state. the founders of israel picked sovereignty snd safety over maximalism, meaning they chose to settle for the land given in the agreements ALTHOUGH a lot of the land that has our ancient history wasnt actually in our defined land which remains as such to this day.

now, kahanism. kahanism is in my eyes an appropriation of what zionism is. kahanism is an extreme right wing and racist take/"branch" of zionism. the idea that israel must be exclusively jewish, no arabs no muslims no christians, and many kahanists like ben gvir even believe that israel should reoccupy the gaza strip. kahanism ( the kach party) was banned from the knesset, israels parliament. but i think its with this move that our rotten politicians did to circumvent this ban is what has really fucked the perception of israel and zionism beyond repair alongside the propaganda about what zionism is. kahanists have essentially decided that kahanism is actually what truly zionist belief is, so they decide to call their movement a Zionist movement. so the "oztma yehudit" (jewish power, disgusting of them to call themselves this btw 😀😀) party peddles the idea that theyre a zionist movement when really, they are just kahanist and anti arab and anti palestinian. its not fucking "jewish power" to be racist. its maddening to me how many "zionists" are actually racist and bigoted and kahanist and then a lot of antizionists see them and say "look at so so, they say theyre zionist and theyre actually racist bigots who want to flatten gaza, every zionist believes that" and when you believe in palestinian self determination and the continued existence of israel and are thus a zionist, youre now morally wrong and inferior, when the perception of zionism is so beyond warped from its true definition. and as much as people will say "not all jews are zionists!" and "im not antisemetic im jusy antizionist!" its very clear how this has given a lot of closeted jew haters the chance to spew blood libel and misinformation. i do believe that there are well intentioned people in the anti israel/anti zionist/pro palestine movement. i truly truly want to believe that. and if you got this far and consider yourself pro palestine, look left snd right in your movement. learn about the old blood libel thst was used against jews for thousands of years thst is now beinh rehashed with more palatable language. there is a LOT of antisemitism in the palestinian movement, and if people who are truly not jew haters have to stand up for what is right to wash the movement clean of antisemitic libel and violence.

i couldnt find a place to fit this in the previous paragraph but israelis are constantly fighting bibis coalition, most israelis crave nothing more then our hostages back and bibi out of politics. our government has done literally nothing to actually help us for a long fucking time. it is incompetent snd we are in dire need to a better prime minister. im thinking of doing a post about how israeli elections, coalitions, parties and knesset works plus an overview of the parties and their ideologies at some point, so lmk if youd be interested

so, pro palestinian and dont hate jews or israelis? actually want to stand for peace?? seriously, put in the effort. because we cannot see you. you are overshadowed by people using the movement to be antisemitic and spread lies about the jewish people.

thingie i wrote about a tf au i mentioned a while back 😐👍 thanks to my pals on discord who had to hear me prattle on about this. questions welcome. etc.

helllooo.....SARtobots

the autobot gang (optimus hound bee jazz prowl ratchet and skids) are a team of rescue vehicles sent down to earth alongside cybertronian drones to help rescue people. optimus is a first responder/fire truck, ratchet is an old hippy ambulance, prowl stays at the base as their intell guy, hes a pre established package deal with jazz, who is a search and rescue copter, bee is a hardened foot soldier/scout, skids is a scientist interested in humanity, hound is our pov character, a rough and tumble upstart.

megatron is also planetside with his team. megatron is a keenly loyal general to straxus, the leader of the decepticons, soundwave is his long suffering 2ic, astrotrain is the strong silent type...he does whatever hes told, but he has a bit of a soft spot, seeing earths technology as wildlife to be respected, starscream is starscream, he has some history with bumblebee, making it his goal to snuff out the scout personally! thundercracker is hounds counterpart, and stars protégé. theyre on earth in search of devastator, a lost combiner megatron is convinced will be the secret weapon that wins the war for straxus. nevermind that the constructicons are scattered across the planet after being hurtled across space a kajillion years ago...and wont be too keen on battle once theyre reactivated...

so the cons and bots butt heads on earth, ignorant to the larger war until word gets out that the prime, sentinel, has killed straxus, causing an immediate power vacuum and knocking the decepticons off balance. good news for optimus' team right? well...

sentinel sent them to earth as an invasion! hes using those drones i mentioned to strip earth of its energy as a last surge to squash the decepticons and win the war. and who cares if optimus' team gets caught in the destruction? cant make an omelet without destroying a few nameless autobots right?

(hey i couldnt find a place to fit this but alpha trion is the real leader of the autobots. hes more of a figurehead though)

well at the same time, megatron learns that straxus has been murdered. before he can get it in his head to get revenge for his fallen leader, megatron learns frm his source that straxus was killed after going to alpha trion with peace talks. his leader, who megatron has been devoted to for millions of years...gave up! well megatron dismisses it as propaganda. hes going to kill sentinel prime.

the issue here is that the autobots are the only one with a ship...and those drones going haywire arent exactly helping things, bc theyve begun to attack anything that threatens them indiscriminately. so...the only solution is to aid the autobots in disposing of them, in return for use of their ship.

megatron and optimus come to a shaky truce, that no ones really happy with, besides maybe tc and hound, with their already budding friendship. bumblebee and starscream are like lowkey trying to sabotage it, until they realize they make a pretty good team. to their horror. for example. megatron, for his part, respects his side of the deal, trusting optimus to do the same. he slowly comes to turn that loyalty he had for straxus onto prime, who isnt exactly sure what to do with it--hes no soldier!

of course, they also have to work together to get the ship back online as well, since it was kicked offline back when sentinel activated the drones. thats...pretty much where im at atm. also i think shockwave is megatrons source on cybertron. loyal in any universe baby.

#straxus is like. hes the old noble 'respects the rules of warfare' type but like. a lot of shit goes on under his nose. he kind of lets it-#happen though #yeah megs isnt the leader. ops not a military leader but he still kicks ass. source: he is optimus prime #or orion? gee i dont know #tfau #transformers au #idk. tags #sartobots #maybe this is stream of consciousness nonsense .perhaps.#anyway (poses)

What have they told you over there that so many of you have become so blind. What have they done to you? My god what have they done to your heart? You don't see the blood that's crashing against the walls Israel has erected? That's the price of your home. Blood of others. There are grandmothers out there clutching the iron keys to their homes that someone else is now living in. A house is made home via someone's hand. One morning these people woke up in that home only to have to flee at noon. Let them come in. Why won't you fight to let them come in? Why are you fighting to keep them away? Strike the wall down. Strike all of the walls down. Let them come back. And if it truly is your home, then these people coming back to their own homes, won't take away yours. Let the olive trees flourish. God why can't you see?

please go read the OFFICIAL charter of hamas, which calls for the destruction of my people and denies allowing any negotiations between JEWS (not israelis) and palestinians, which actively calls for jihad (holy war). you will see hamas claiming that they are not against jews, but only israel- not mentioning that over 30% of the world's jews live in israel. hamas claims that the area of historical palestine MUST BE ISLAMIC. not palestinian. hamas chokes its own people, murders them, and gives them no rights.

what have they done to me? my father was struck by a rocket and has a metal pin in his leg replacing one of his bones; my mother was nearly blown up on a bus, my cousin was murdered on 10/7/2023.

but we deserved that, right? because the ussr gave my parents passports with the word JEW for their nationality, and only one country would take them? they took our homes and land and money in the arab nations, they kicked us out of yemen, syria, egypt, libya, sudan, iraq, and more. they said YOU ARE NOT WELCOME.

you tell me YOU ARE NOT WELCOME.

my blood is on YOUR hands. you will only let me live if i live silently. educate yourself. do not blind yourself behind your idealism, your imagination that this is a conflict over land. im just going to give wikipedia pages, because theyre simple and digestible, but i do hope you look into it further. i am happy to provide books, news articles, and studies.

Eating Out

!a series of me uploading the kinktober fics/drabbles i made years ago because i didnt back in 2020 for some fuckin reason. if these are bad/poor quality its because theyre old, and ive improved since then :)!

Losleep (Remy x Logan) Day 2: Eating out Warnings: eating ass

"You know, Thomas can't really fall asleep with his brain running a mile a minute," Remy said, leaning against the logical traits door with a sweet smelling coffee in hand.

"It's practically impossible for anyone to run a mile per minute," Logan responds, eyes not moving from computer screen. He continued typing, as he continued explaining. "The world record time for the fastest mile run is three minutes and forty three seconds."

Remy rolls his eyes. "You know what I meant."

"I don't."

"For someone who claims to be so smart-"

"Don't."

Remy grinned, and he could see Logan hunch over slightly. Remy whistled, strolling fully into the room.

"Sitting like that is bad for your posture, babe," Remy advises him, moving to stand right at the side of the chair. He takes a large sip of his coffee, before setting it down on Logan's desk. That gets Logan to stop.

He glares at Remy. "Move that. My workspace is not a place for you to leave your trash."

"This is half full. Far from trash, if ya ask me."

"Well, I'm not asking you. I'm telling you. I have work to do, Sleep, and you do too. Thomas shouldn't be awake at this hour."

Remy rolls his eyes again. "You think I don't know that? Bitch, the first thing I said when I walked in was that Thomas couldn't sleep. And that's not entirely my fault. I can only do so much for him. His brain is keeping him awake."

Logan sighs, staring at Remy for a few seconds, and Remy believes he's won.

But then, Logan just turns back to his work, causing Remy to let out a groan.

Well, guess he'd have to use force.

He gripped the back of Logan's chair, before spinning it so that he and Logan were face to face.

"For someone who wants best for Thomas, you sure aren't trying very hard," Remy says, roughly grabbing Logan's chin and pulls their faces close together.

Logan's eyes go wide for a minute, before they narrow. He goes to retaliate, but Remy beats him to it.

"Sitting that close to a screen will hurt your beautiful eyes babe. Give you a headache too. But you've already had one, if not more of those. Don't think I didn't notice the bottle of Ibuprofen on your desk." He releases Logan's chin, and instead, grabs Logan's wrists and pulls him up and out of the chair.

"Tell me, why can't you just put this stuff off until tomorrow?"

"Because it needs to be done tonight-!"

"Oh? It needs to be done tonight?" He pushes Logan onto the bed.

"That's what I just-"

"You know what else needs to be done tonight? A whole lotta sleepin', and I'm willing to help our host in any way that I can," Remy purrs, crawling onto the bed after Logan. "And if that means helping you destress in order to do so, then so be it."

Remy's now positioned so that he's straddling Logan's lap, hunched over Logan as Logan's back is pressed to the bed.

Logan's hands are on Remy's shoulders, but Remy can tell Logan's mind is still on his work.

So Remy's hand slides down and grips Logan's tie, pulling it so that Logan's face is once again close to his. His other hand is busy rubbing up and down Logan's side, an all too comforting gesture that greatly contrasted with how intensely he was staring down Logan.

"May I?" Remy suddenly asks, a smug smirk creeping onto his face.

Logan, getting the implications, spared one last look at his computer, before sighing out a tired "you have my consent." Remy grinned, wasting no time as he worked to strip Logan, Logan helping as best he could.

Although, there really wasn't a need to, considering how quickly Remy tore the clothes off of him.

"I believe this is less to help me destress and more to satisfy your high sex drive," Logan states, frowning when Remy removes his glasses from his face.

He can still see somewhat decently, but he prefers to wear them in order to avoid getting headaches.

Remy then removes his own sunglasses, revealing his own dark brown eyes.

"I won't be satisfying myself in any way," Remy counters, his hands roaming over Logan's nude body. It was stiff and rigid, as if Logan was incapable of relaxing.

Knowing him, it probably was.

Logan was surprisingly fit, though, which Remy would be more surprised about if he hadn't already seen Logan shirtless. He had broad shoulders, but looked to just be skinny and lanky when you looked at him normally.

But naked? He was well toned, his arms and legs definitely held muscle, and-

"Remy, can you hurry up?" Logan asks, voice rather irritated. Remy tsks, hands coming to rest on Logan's thighs.

"I was just admiring your body," Remy says, as he spreads Logan's thighs apart. Out of nowhere, he slaps the inside of one of them, and Logan lets out a mix between a squeak and a whine. He then glares at Remy, while Remy just grins.

"Can you flip yourself over for me please, love?" Remy asks, hands massaging Logan's thighs.

Logan does as he says and flips himself onto his hands and knees, before saying "I thought you wouldn't be satisfying yourself in any way," clearly expecting Remy to fuck him.

He gasps, and is rather caught off guard however, as he feels a wet muscle prodding at his entrance.

He instinctually pushes himself back on it, only for the stimulation to disappear almost immediately.

Logan whines, and he hears Remy chuckle behind him, his hands going back to running over Logan's body.

"Remy..." Logan whines out, and Remy's hands pause where they are. He bends over Logan's back, lips hovering right above Logan's ear.

"Yeah babe?" Remy responds, voice quiet and low. Logan whines in response.

He was embarrassed to admit that his cock was fully hard, just from the touches and light stimulation. He didn't partake in sexual acts often, so his body was rather sensitive when it came to this sort of thing.

"Are you really going to make me ask?"

Remy grins at Logan's rushed out question, before he places a kiss to the side of Logan's head.

"Nah. Guess not. I'm here to help, although, I'll admit that hearing you beg is a pretty hot thought," he answers, pressing a kiss between Logan's shoulder blades. Logan just rolls his eyes.

He feels Remy's hands running over his body yet again, and found himself getting a bit irritated, as he assumed that Remy wasn't going to give him what he wanted. That was, until, he felt Remy spread his cheeks, and his tongue back at his asshole.

Logan whined, pushing his face into the pillows, as Remy held his ass up with his hands holding tight around his waist.

Remy's tongue is lapping at Logan's asshole, before he slowly prods the entrance. Logan let out a shaky breath at the action, pushing back on the muscle.

Remy begins to thrust his tongue in and out of Logan's ass, the logical side, gasping and moaning at the actions.

In a matter of time, Logan was gasping out that he was close, his own hand coming to work his cock. He moaned as he began jacking himself off, Remy continuing to thrust into his ass as his hands massaged Logan's hips.

Logan came with a whine, before Remy pulled his tongue out and released Logan, said man falling into his own mess on the bed.

He let out a slightly disgusted noise, as he landed in his own come.

"I need to wash my sheets now," he mutters, and he hears Remy laugh.

"Yeah, you do. You could probably also use a shower. Buuuuut," Remy drew out the word as he shrugged off his jacket and pulled off his jeans, before crawling into bed with Logan. "You can always do that tomorrow," he finishes, pulling Logan to his chest, holding him rather tightly in case he planned on escaping.

Knowing Logan, he'd probably just get right back up early tomorrow and continue working, but for now, Logan could use some sleep. And he was finally relaxed enough to get some.

Dark fuckin thought but

Idk man what if we all just sent the legislation and police cryptic messages like "please stop killing us" but not specifying who, and "think of your own safety" but not specifying the danger, and "blood on your hands of the innocents is the marker for the devil" from burner emails and in letters to their homes until they all get so terrified that they stop making decisions altogether and go mad so we can make them retire and get some competent people in office

Just saying if theyre suddenly going to try and strip our rights from us like they don't exist maybe we should just start freaking them the fuck out idk

Probably a bad idea but man it would be cool if I could get my anger out in a fake bloodstained letter saying "you killed children in texas" and sending it to a Texan legislators home, that would be extremely therapeutic

#been thinking a lot about leaving the U.S. lately #its getting increasingly unsafe #vent #dark thoughts

you mentioned how hlvrai is an interesting form of storytelling and i think thats part of why it got big- same with taz and other dnd podcasts- people like the authenticity of it. theres no big writers rooms working to make it "perfect." its all very in the moment. the actors arent actors- theyre not reading off a script. everyone whose playing a part are equally a part of the storytelling process. everyone is making the script up in the moment, and things happen either to immediately make their friends laugh or make their friends go 'holy shit thats awesome' or (my personal favorite) to give their friends the opportunity to do something cool!

its an honest form of storytelling that we're kinda losing with the way media is so sanitized and washed out and forced to be marketable. like, i struggle explaining hlvrai or dnd podcasts to my friends when they ask what kind of content i watch, because theres really no comparison to it (unless they also engage with that type of content). its like people sitting around a campfire telling stories, just to pass the time and engage in creativity. and i think thats why people like them, theyre just fun and real.

i got a little rambley but overall: i think hlvrai and these types of media are popular because theyre honest

i think there's truth to this, yeah!!! :) there's a lot to be said for stories where the storytellers are present/visible, esp when they're all close-- it's like being invited into their warm, fun little friend group for a little bit, even if it's just to observe. it's a kind of antithesis to the wave of polished and soulless media that has become more and more of the stuff out there in the past ten years (spotless set design, everyone is beautiful and no one is horny, reliance on the Save the Cat method, i don't have enough links to sketch this whole thing out but yes: the number one word is marketability). these are lonely times; stories told by real people in real-time are a breath of fresh air, especially when there's the doubled wild cards of 1. wtf are my friends going to pull out of their asses next and how do i keep this balloon-story in the air oh god and 2. dice-rolling/weird g-mod stuff à la the helicopter heap, etc. it's great fun to see people up against these odds who manage to pull together a semi-cohesive story anyways :)

i don't think we're really losing this kind of story-telling, though it is becoming less visible in a marketability-lowest-common-denominator-blockbuster-content-production kind of way. but you're right that these kinds of practices trace back to telling stories around a fire, or while spinning thread or sharpening flint-- it's deep in our core as human beings. our lives are very different from those of our our ancestors 50k years ago but in the grand scheme of things, we've barely barely changed. we still want those stories. we still want to tell them, too. even as inhuman companies beyond our individual grasps manipulate things far above us, try to distract workers from too-long days at work with stripped-down marketable manipulative garbage, there will always be people making weird, niche art: friend groups who stream goofy improv together, people who write thousands upon thousands of words about their OCs even though only 3 people read it, toby fox in his basement, DnD podcasts with fewer than a fifty listeners, stick figure webcomics updating every day, pre-teens scribbling about sparklewolves in their composition notebooks and shyly sharing a little bit with the other weirdo in their class.

but yeah. especially for those of us who don't necessarily have the energy to create as much as we'd like, story-telling that has the foundations visible, that is honest about what it is and where it's coming from, that has at its core the desire to make one's friends laugh-- it's great! it's fun! it's a good antidote to the big polished crap :)

#i think ur smart n right anon i also just cannot stop talking. hope this makes sense i wrote it at 3am and am not less tired now #saint talks #ask saint #sorry this took me like a week to respond to i'm avoiding other things so i uh. well i got trapped in the televison tbh #here's some notes for anyone interested:#DO watch the first 1.5 seasons of twin peaks; interesting things to say about masculinity and trauma and community failures/success #DON'T watch season 1 of true detective; has boring incomplete things to say about masculinity and did NOTHING w the yellow king >:(#DO watch season 1 of severance it is excellent across the board; yes polished but v distinct w a very solid thoughtful core #thinking very vaguely about how a hlvrai au would slot nicely into it but only vaguely. do you hear me brain VAGUELY

okay thats it time to clear house there are fucking too many of you now. survival of the fittest those of you who are strong enough will die off and my notifications wont be filling with hundreds of them every day

the internet left is straight up canibalistic and impotent. you talk about a revolution and killing billionaires but the thought of giving up chick fillet or something else equally trivial is completely beyond you. how am i supposed to take you seriously anout wanting to go through the painful and potentially devastating concequences of forcibly changing society if you don't have the conviction to even give up your creature comforts. until you so called leftists grow a spine and actualy do the basics like get q long term strategy in place i am not going to believe that you have what it takes.

on the same note. yall are so fucking dramatic and love drama to the point that you will gladly tear into each other and try to paint other leftists as villains for not being ideologically pure as you think you are. you cant build a colelition or a movement if you arent willing to join with people you dont agree 100% with. and you cant do shit if youre more concerned with looking like the wokest person in the room than you are actually affecting systemic change

the harry potter game thing is a microcosm. i do not care qbout the harry potter game. as a trans person. i dont care. you're shadow boxing in platos cave trying to win a symbolic victory against a single terf. meanwhile our rights are being stripped away from us while you are focused on bullying people into not playing a videp game like thats actually going to fix anything. someone streaming that fucking terrible game and raising money to donate to a trans charity is doing infinitely more good for me and the rest of the trans community than the rest of you fuckers combined

ai art is fine actually. and while there needs to ne regulation about how datasets qre compiled. it is not plageriam and is not art theft and is not copying your art style the devil and is actualy good and cool you just have a fundumental misunderstanding of how the technology works. the exploitation and undervaluation of artists in our society is not new and is not because of ai art. you want to help artists? stop shadow boxing in platos cave and actually support artists and create networks with the aim of making sure that artists actually get paid and get credit for the work they do

people can ship or write or he off too whatever the hell they like its none of my business

i am not proship, not because i dont share their views about fiction. but because i dont believe that they go far enough. the anti anti movement had it right but the proship comunity is very much "fuck you i got mine" they want to play with their fanfic and read their stories and dont want to actually explore thought or principles beyond that. things dont matter and arent bad if they arent hurting real people? okay then. in that case pedophiles and zoophiles dont deserve harasment if they arent actually hurting anykne. incest is fine as long as its consentual and using mental health problems (hes insane, theyre psychotic, theyre a narcasist, they lack empathy conservatism appeals to the mentaly ill, trying to say that mass murderers or child molesters or corrupt politicians are that way because there is something mentally wrong with them) as a way to condem their character means that YOU are the terrible person. claiming that only people who aren't neurotypical can be monsters is abelist. theres no other way about it

some of you straight up dont have principles, you call yourself progressive but you are still working on that gut level "it makes me feel weird pr gross to think about and upsets me and therefor it must be evil" like a five year old, you never actually examined your beliefs and your feelings and developed a moral code that you stick to even when it is hard and it shows

#hopefully this will scare at least some of you off #looking forward to my notes being managable again and not a source of stress #hopefully i dont lose any of my mutuals over this

ive thought a lot abt psychiatry n mental illness the last couplea months, n just like... thinking abt the standards of mental illness. like, treatment is less abt helping people be as safe and comfortable as they want and need to be, and more abt pushing them into a mindset deemed "normal and functioning" to capitalist and individualist society. it doesnt matter what the mentally ill person wants or how they feel, bc their bodily autonomy and human rights were stripped from them the second theyre deemed a "threat" (to themselves, to others, to their caregiver's feelings, to profit margins)

thats why i want to only talk to and hear from other mentally ill people on this subject now. especially more demonized mindsets like schizophrenia. our voices have been silenced and deemed unnecessary on our OWN conditions and well-being, and even when people acknowledge the horrific oppression and medial abuse mentally ill ppl faced decades ago, they still refuse to listen to the very people who faced it bc of this idea of us "not knowing what we're talking about, listen to the professionals who were also complicit in said abuse."

ive also been thinking about mental illness being synonymous with harm and pain. and while yes it can be a struggle lots of the time, i wonder where the pain starts with the mental illness alone, and where it starts with capitalist oppression and a refusal to accommodate us. Think abt how autism is thought of a different way of minds to work rather than a mental illness for some autistic people. and think abt all the posts saying how autistic and adhd-having people in the past could use their mindsets for unique ways to help others, like spotting patterns or being hyperaware. and i think about this article i read on a study of hallucinatory voices and how they are heard differently depending on culture, some people even saying they are comforting or are the voices of loved ones. and the people mostly describing them as scary or harmful were Americans, and how this could possibly be shaped by public perception and media portrayals of schizophrenia. it makes me wonder what traits of mentally ill people, even the "scary" illnesses, can be divided into "good" or "bad", and what it means to want to "cure" those illnesses.

#maybe its controversial to say schizophrenia and such arent all inherently bad but i dont care.#my world is shaped by my perception of it. i care about how i and others feel more than the idea of whats ''normal'' or ''healthy''#and no. im not arguing that symptoms that hurt you are Good Actually. i want everybody's harm to be reduced as much as possible #and thats not gonna be achieved unless we TALK TO and LISTEN to the ones being harmed.#i dont want treatment to be cookie-cutter based on what a ''normal'' mind or body should be.#i want it based on the people its supposed to help

equally as pissed abt RvW as i am about the hordes of brainless transphobic cis women boiling over with scathing victim complexes and are already screaming & thrashing literally any fucking time that trans men, nonbinary & intersex people are included in the talk about roe v wade overturning as if every person with a uterus is infertile unless theyre a woman🗿 and it's literally no coincidence with the dismantling of trans rights either since the attempts to quash our visibility & freedom are blatantly in hopes to enforce a strict gender binary that ties in with what the supreme court is doing to strip those of childbearing ability of their rights to their own body (shocker! not all of them are women like those christofascist spineless hounds want to think) + besides the fact these gonad-fixated perverts constantly froth at the mouth like rabid fucking animals when theyre told to respect someones identity & personhood for who they are & to stop equating someones gender identity to their genitals & reproductive functions (hence their tireless obsession of claiming "only feemalez get babies!! so femalez = wamen!1!!" with their reactionary gender essentialist views that always route back to supporting patriarchy & inability to understand the sex spectrum & gender identity as two very different things)

like i cannot make this up because its always shown one way or another that they are deadass as useful as a broken wrist with the way they constantly parrot & perpetuate that same patriarchal shit they always claim (and fail) to stand against if it harms transgender/intersex people in favor of the cisgendered being the only ones in the spotlight of course

but its so simple really (who am i kidding transphobes & terves thrive on being dense) stop thinking u can choose someones identity for them when all theyre asking is to be fucking VISIBLE & accurately represented in an era where we are also in peril from the overturning. times five with recent transphobic legislation. call it just a womens issue & you already participated in ignoring the plight of thousands to millions who are affected! youll either leave them out entirely as if we're all inactive inside or you'll drag them in the conversation only to misrepresent them as a ciswoman and reduce it to a gendered issue ["men cant talk about abortion at all!"] vs an entire human rights violation to anyone of childbearing ability

#like idk if im the only one seeing how erasure of trans/intersex ppl = enforced binary = return of intensely deluded patriarchal values #in the context of 'fucking include us when you talk about roe v wade because its not only women'#and not every woman has a uterus anyways like goddamn you 'ahf 💜🤍💚' emily bitches need to get a grip like. Ppl are dying & are going to die.#and these weird freaks are so obsessed with keeping the conversation on whoever they deem to be a woman like they have any jurisdiction #or any right to dictate someones identity for them like they are actually demented. highly detached from reality & basic human decency #long post #roe v wade

seeing tae traveling on his own (going to malta) made me realize how bad i am at traveling, nevertheless alone. i still dont understand the whole process ngl. i have horrible anxiety so even going thru checks makes me so nervous plus w/ how quick it goes and u gotta take all your stuff out and rush and its a mess so id probably forget my own bags if someone wasnt with me. u must've traveled a lot right, are u comfortable doing it on your own by now?

traveling alone is always going to be stressful, esp as an asian woman yknow? travel will always be a rush rush wait affair (unless ur hella rich) and murphys law will hit you at one point or other. however, research and preparedness will be your best friend, and the experience and sights you see will be worth it 🥰🥰🥰

im going to compile some tips after the cut if you need it:

i always keep a list of everything i need to pack, organized by: toiletries (if theyre in your carry-on, you need to make sure its within airline security regulations. creams count as liquids. BRING SUNSCREEN!), clothes, accessories, and shoes (make sure you have enough to change every day, plus 1-2 days extra. also make sure you have layers like a jacket/large scarf which can also be a blanket and COMFY shoes that has room for swollen feet. you can repeat clothes so you can pack light. check the weather! bring an umbrella!), electronics (AND THEIR CHARGERS! bring a socket/voltage exchange if its different from your country), medicine (check your destinations rules on drugs. DONT ASSUME), YOUR DOCUMENTATION (passport/photo ID, visas, vax records, emergency contacts, hotel/destination addresses. keep a hard copy of it away from where you store your OG docs, and keep pictures of your documentations in your phone), and itinerary (where are you staying? do you need travelers insurance? did you call your bank so you can access your cards at your destination? what is your budget? do you need to change currency? you should have emergency money for taxis and a night at the hotel IN CASH)

pack your things into your luggage and DONT TAKE THEM OUT. for last minute things, create a separate packing list for when you leave for the airport. if you are taking a carry-on, make sure it meets airline regulations. keep all of your documents and cash in a secure location AND DONT LET IT LEAVE YOUR BODY. if you need to bring small candies and snacks (like me, i get low blood sugar easily), make sure its packaged and processed. a lot of countries dont allow meats and vegetables and seeds/grains into the country. check customs and immigration. ditto for your meds and other controlled substances and liquids. when you cross immigrations and security, make sure your water bottle is EMPTY. there are water fountains and restaurants past security. if you have a big carryon, you can carry it past security, and if the airlines have space, they usually allow you to check large carryons for free at the boarding gate, you can keep an eye/ear our for that.

usually the airline attendant will stick your checked baggage tags onto your boarding pass as a reminder for you to pick it up, so dont throw away your boarding pass! stick in your passport pages for safe keeping. make sure to stand near the first half of the loop and put really identifiable ribbons/duct tape/buckets on your bags so someone else won't walk away w your stuff. (if youre in a country famous for sm*ggling dr*gs, make sure to plastic wrap your entire luggage, some big airports have this at the lobby before check in)you will not believe the variation of black/navy bags until youve been on the strip 🤣🤣🤣 DONT bring monogrammed luxury luggages w you. thats asking you to be mugged in broad daylight. use your knees and waist and core to lift your luggage out, OR if you look sad enough, usually someone will help you (not that ive had that happen to me....many times......)

look like you know what youre doing, even if you dont! if you look unsure, pickpocketers and bad actors will target you. THUS! always do your research first. be as accurate and specific as you can. learn some helpful language phrases if its a foreign country (i.e. where is..., direction words, thank you, please, could i have...). fake it til you make it fam 🥰🥰🥰 don't draw attention, and make sure you look out for arrows and signs to tell you where to go. remember to keep your hands on your possession at all time. if youre in places famous for pickpocketers, wear your backpack in your front.

dont be afraid to ask for help from airline staff/concierge/info desk. theyre usually really friendly and want to help you! so if youre lost and dont know where your boarding gate is, or you dont know which bus to take, or you don't understand the in flight menu or need extra pillows and blankets (ask early! right after the plane levels out is usually a good time to ask)

at your hotel, make sure to sweep for cams (under mirrors/smoke detectors/paintings/tv etc.), deadbolt your door, and close your curtains. dont let strangers into your room, even if they claim to be staff. be aware of your surroundings at all times, dont talk to strangers, keep your hands on your bags, stay in public spaces, stay safe!

tldr; research lots, pack light but right, keep your documents in order, stay in reputable places and public transport, be aware of your surroundings, and most importantly, HAVE FUN! godspeed darling 🥰🥰🥰

#ive had the luxury of traveling often when i was younger since a lot of my family is abroad and my mom loves travelling #if you wanna hear travel horror stories i have lots! from 'the airline went backrupt the day we were supposed to leave' to #'the customs officer is being a rac*st amoeba and wont let me thru even tho i have my paperwork in order EVEN MY RENT CONTRACT #but he STILL wont let me thru and i just missed my flight which means i gotta stay in this fucking airport for ANOTHER 13 hours FUCK U'#'fuck i only have 20 bucks on me which usually will be fine but all of the subways and busses have stopped so i cant get into the city'#'let me get on this hella sketch uber ride w 2 other strangers so i can get into the city and get home so i can CRASH after a 16hr flight'#oh and my personal favorite: 'the flight previous had an incident so the plane isnt here to pick us up but i gotta take this flight #if i wanna make it to my sophomore year classes on time but ALSO theres a typhoon here and all bridges and ferries have stopped #so im stranded in this stupid airport w limited electricity and no one knows whats happening and im running on 3 hrs of sleep'#the airline company is very important as well! i personally love flying w cathay pacific and air canada and swiss air and virgin #its still a lot of fun and a good story to talk about after the fact 🤣🤣🤣#ans

In the two years since George Floyd was murdered, we have had the Black Lives Matter movement, the Defund the Police movement, the Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion movement, and the movement to remove ACT and SAT tests, stripping schools of honors classes and wasting valuable time on white privilege instead of educating our kids upward. The latest is the SAFE-T Act, which would abolish the cash bail system.

So it's been a while since my last post on here, or on anywhere for that matter, but here i am now. There's been alot going on, in my life and most stressfully in my head; so anyways here i am and its not truly with plessure that im back.

As i started this blog and hope to continue it, i want to go into the great issues of our day, now this issue currently does not leagally affect me (currently) though i susspect it will some time in the future as we seem to have gon through the time warp as a race... we are back to the 1920's to the 1950's with womens rights.

There is 37 countrys that are still or have gone back to the dark ages for women or anyone with a utarus.

women stood up for the rights to vote to have or not have a baby, women have fought to be belived on what they say, they fight for the right even till this day, did we think the fight was over when women were given the right to vote? when women was allowed to finally choose to have an abortion if they require, want, or need an abortion? or did we this the fight has just begun.

the fight is far from over for any women or any one with a utarus well reguardless of weather the fight was just beinging or just ending here we are at a full out war!

This year the US has made/ is making it illegal to abort your child, regaurdless of circumstances, it doesnt matter how old you are or anything, you have no right to your fetus other than to contain it for 9months, then squeeze it out and be a parent of an innocent child you never wanted or wasnt ready for, or give it up to be adopted and most cases those kids will end up in the system, a system that is broken and does not protect the children in its care.

these children born are going to be the unwanted generation, yes the whole "we want your baby, well take it in" and "theres parents out there just waiting for your unwanted child to be born" is a nice centament but please tell me if there are so many parents out there that want these unwanted children, please keep in mind theres a strict rule book to wheather these people are actually eligable to adopt or foster, then why not take in the millons of children that are born, are alive, are healthy and breathing right now...

oh you say because that child could cure cancer?

okay what about the child current alive and unwanted living in the system being passed from family to family, the kid being beaten by there so called parents they are staying with a few weeks till they get an offical adoption with will probably not happen, what about the kids who are being raped, groamed, molested, beaten, left to feel so unwanted they wish they was never born and then go on to commit suicide?

what about them? oh you dont care about them? theyre to old they can choose for themselves... of course they can karen a 5 year old knows better than to be alone in a room with a grown man they have been left with, stranger danger and all, their parents sound have taught them, no? they didnt have any no one wanted them yet, they was born and stuck in this room with this stranger cause the system said they will be safe.

okay what about this one mr men in the govenments who think they have the right to choose for someone else.

i saw on reddit a lawyer asking for advice, about their 10 year old client who was rapped and beaten and was scared to come forward was then found to be pregnant only 6 weeks along the baby didnt have a heart beat, didnt have a brain, no legs, arms, nothing to suggest life. yet was denied an abortion that would allow this child to not have her body further voilanted and out of her control, further trumor from being forced to go through childbirth at 10years old... SHE DID NOT CONSENT TO THIS. WHY DO YOU FEEL THE NEED TO RAPE HER AGAIN BY TAKING AWAY HER RIGHTS.

Well mr men, i hope you too have your rights stripped from you and maybe just maybe if were lucky the smarter sex will cut off your dicks but dont worry consent isnt needed its ours you dont own your body didnt you hear? bodies dont belong to their hosts anymore, have they ever?

better keep one eye open if you live with a women, dont forget that temper they cant control it right? hestria i think you used to call it, hear its making a come back.

i don’t mean to make this about england i am truly sorry if it sounds like i am but the 12pm joke just annoyed me bcs we’re also over here getting our human rights getting rewritten to basically not exist and not enough people know about it

Ok so talk about it, tell me what is going on and ill post it on my blog, yall know damn well i got bout four thousand mfs following me on this damn hellsite. If I have a platform yall know I’m here to post shit and reblog shit thats important. Baby i dont give a damn if the joke annoyed you, you came in my inbox telling me something but giving me zero context. If youre gonna bring up a persistent issue then tell us about it cause babe im not researching shit going on overseas rn when I literally have to worry about my rights and literal freedom as a black person are at the hands of 9 old mfs and 6 of them probably want my ass working on a plantation.

The truth of the matter is as an American my priorities lie in America, like yes i care about activism overseas and in other countries but right now at this exact moment im gonna reblog shit about america or post whats going on in America because I’m a black, brown, nonbinary afab, queer person and everything going on right now is immediately stripping away my rights and the rights of so many of my followers. We have literal senators on Twitter openly tweeting to basically bring back institutional segregation, roe v wade was overturned, theyre reviewing everything surrounding due process.

If this came off as rude then so be it, im not apologizing for reblogging a damn joke especially when you came in saying “im not trying to make this about england” when that is EXACTLY what you did. If you wanna talk about whats going on in england rn then TALK ABOUT IT, im here to listen and to answer asks or post credible submissions yall send me, but once again i am not prioritizing doing research about other nations issues rn when my rights as a human being across the board are literally at risk in the country that i HAVE TO LIVE IN
