Why are there suddenly so many new fan accs that aren’t labeled as New Account? Do we lack labelers this weekend or do we really have to behave like Pu-tin sleeper accs for fandom…? Most fandom is okay to me as long as you don’t go out of your way to make yourself look sus, so please don’t🙏

Kojima has truly upped his immunity… (nevertheless the fan jokes are a bit off the mark sometimes considering they’re about a real person instead of a character😬)

This is absolutely aimed at people who still consume H/P content (in any licensed manner) who will not want to believe me when I say this still enables the author. Absolutely *interesting* how the victim-believing is not applicable to y’all when it inconveniences you and the author isn’t cishetmale!

Uh, don’t tell me of x things you can’t enjoy because of abusers. I expect the next years to reveal that TERFs are either child abusers (if just for beating/neglecting, a topic that comes up more often since the pandemic and “homeschooling”) and y’all will not vet these until the very last second🤷

From my understanding of the world building, your variant is more like what Digimon would be. They aren’t really contained individually though, they are just usually in cyberspace. Pokémon’s ability to shrink is a central inherent scientific wonder that is described “as not further understood yet”.

Unfollowed a few people for my own sanity and found out they were all on my “Watch out, they suspiciously lack genderneutral/nb-inclusive language a lot for a native English speaker” list. You can’t even make that shit up. Also sad about every racial minority person among them because *come on*.

It is possible I will be angry about what Amazon did to Comixology for the rest of my life. I read and discover so, so much less without that incredible website to browse. The kindle store version isn’t even “we have comixology at home,” it’s “you don’t get to have comixology, eat a dick”

I’m sorry the world isn’t easy and binary and awful things can happen independently of what TERFs say about it, but if they’re you’re only source, you’re part of fascism. Because they might just be testing your waters on what crimes they can make up about queer people and you’ll fall for it.

Don’t believe TERFs. They will say “I was abused by a man” and what they mean is they were in the same bathroom with a butch lesbian they misgendered as a trans woman they misgendered as a guy. If you can’t follow this and go “b-but believe women”, you’re too gullible to be safe for queer people.

All of this for a person to essentially say “look mom, I was too lazy to make pasta art, so I made a machine do it even worse than me” but they notice that that’s actually really bleak and shitty, so they came up with the excuse of it being “abstract”. These people know so much nothing!

Not just do you require intent, it goes beyond; you even require psychology for most abstract pieces. You have to be able to analyze things on planes of existence that may not be obvious at first. A data average or likelihood machine is literally incapable of acquiring any of these abilities. Oof!

And I’m sooooo suspicious about that podcast since someone said there’s a rumor they also influenced the way Heard talked in the infamous case in which she suddenly told some dramatized illogical shit in the public court process. That reeks of manipulation for maximum drama, not victim support.

I think it’s more complicated when the only source who had contact with the original victim is Boris Johnson’s sister and the only source being cited everywhere is a TERF podcast, because we don’t really know what either side said. We only know a third suspicious PoV since TERFs are also abusers.

If your area got a new Labour MP then it is your duty to email them and say that you are happy the Tories are out but that transphobia should have no place in the party. Make Starmer gently walk back his support for Rowling's position!

Yeah, they can be pretty big and being near them is unpleasant even if you have enough distance not to get injured, because the sound is utterly disruptive when it exceeds a certain force. I knew a sad case of a guy who forged his own firecrackers and “you won’t guess his disability”.

This is a longer ongoing issue with unlicensed firecrackers trying to be louder and louder. It’s also dangerous to even own or try to use any of them, but some people always want the bigger/louder thing…

Her casting was announced yesterday. So. The timing of having a bunch of people turning their eyes to an antitrans hate site seems pointed, even assuming that the allegations are credible, as they may well be.

The podcast itself is from the original source which was written by the sister of Boris Johnson for a hate site. Again, None of this precludes the allegations from being true or should stop us from taking it seriously. But the source itself puts a strange wrinkle in piecing it all together.

It's pretty interesting what the media decides is front page news and what they don't decide is front page news! Trump being a child sex abuser with close connections to Jeffrey Epstein somehow doesn't merit the same coverage as "unnamed Dem insider has concerns about Biden's age"

Fucking responsibility is good (even if pun here). From what I’ve seen in (het)guy victims is that they do not grasp they are the victim forever, it’s so normalized to ignore boundaries in guy spaces. So it takes them longer to grasp a power/boundary-related mistake, and that applies on either end.

More kinda trans ally attacking, but I feel like it’s more 4D chess to the TERFs and a really stupid & gross mistake on his side as far as we know what part definitely happened. Obviously the TERFs think their 4D tactics are perfect and that’s why comments on it in the TERF space will give it away.

Also hate that there’s this not so silent “believe women, as in only as long as they are cis/don’t come out as transmasc and/or enby” thing ringing with the phrase that should’ve been avoided ever since the goddamn gamershitgate if not earlier. It’s already hard for cis men to flee abuse.

And honestly I never say “believe women” because of that. Believe victims, not gender. Cishets all abuse too many queer people and even some cishet men, in more than 2 cases I was a witness pro a guy victim. It sucks but that’s how it is. (Don’t fuck your employee either way, it’s yucky)

This. This is btw sadly also the kind of game that all abusers will play; if they found a situation they can misinterpret to hurt you because of political (read: anti-minority beef), they will do this, and female abusers often lie this way around. Ask all their queer victims & esp (trans) lesbians.

Always stay vigilant, but allegations against Gaiman coming from a TERF podcast? Nah, c’mon. His version seems a bit tacky as well, but sometimes that’s what it is. He’s one of the people who has been copyright infringed by the wizard TERF, so that makes it seem super tacky in timing.

You’re welcome, YT specifically is a headscratcher because you’d think they don’t want to lose music interest traffic to other forms of streaming. Their shuffle is also bad, so when you use a shuffler tool for YT video embeds and they push these aggressive ads, you constantly have to reload pages🤦

It’s where all of the racism falls on fertile ground and also the new anti-trans/queer panic. The idea that kids seeing a queer person in public would “inspire” them to “ruin their family tree”, along with all the misconceptions about sex. Most people on that train also lack/ignore modern SexEd.

I know it’s probably gonna sound predictable, but as a queer German I really have said “it’s all just fucking eugenics again” more than once recently. It all goes back to the “my genes are better than yours” fallacy. A belief harbored by selfish people who often can’t explain what a gene even is.
