I actually do feel like the "unemployed friend on a Tuesday" meme actually helps de-stigmatize unemployment because it frequently affirms that when you don't have a job you're more likely to be getting up to some weird shit rather than just lazing around. But I also feel like the unemployed friend is frequently up to some random shit because there's a whole pile of miscellaneous life tasks that full-time employment keeps people from. The unemployed friend is helping their cousin move, or babysitting, or checking in with a neighbor with mobility issues. The unemployed friend is a walking thesis on the inflexibility of our current labor landscape and just how much work exists outside of work.

wishing I could freeze time so fanfic writers could write all of their slow-burn enemies to lovers and gay porn and fix-it fics and all of their WIPs and prompts without having to worry about life and other responsibilities

Regular misogyny is still misogyny when you direct it against transfems. When you accuse us of hysteria (or "screaming and crying" as you may circumlocutionarily put it) for expressing views you dislike, that's misogyny. When you explain aspects of our transfeminism that you find disagreeable (for example us taking issue with the claim that we are "seen as men") with us being too emotionally fragile and immature to face reality, that's misogyny. When you dismiss us as being too irrational and emotional to assess our own oppression objectively, that's misogyny. If you belittle, infantilize and condescend to transfeminists at every turn, if you cannot reckon with the fact that you have genuine ideological disagreements with transfeminists without resorting to misogynistic cliches to dismiss them, then you are a misogynist who considers transfems fair game for misogynizing (and you should correct that).

“tits or ass?” is a stupid question bc they both belong to you and the fact that they’re yours is the only thing that matters to your beloved! get unconditionally loved, bitch!

with due respect business insider I think that millennial fandom moms have been this site's strongest warriors for the past 15+ years

"you can't call people eggs because some have internalized bigotries and they will push themselves further into the closet" personally i think it's good to force others to face their bigotries

Idk like yeah incest/fauxcest kink hot but also as an autistic tranny who never felt any real kind of connection to her friends or family growing up having tgirls who get me and who I can call sister and who I can on some level revisit a youth we missed out on with is just really fucking nice. Like yeah you can get grossed out about grown women with no actual relationship playing make believe for both fun and emotional fulfillment but also it betrays that you're really not willing to look any deeper than 'the trannies gave me the ick' to maybe understand why its such a commonly shared kink. Also its hot

don’t know what parent of an autistic child needs to hear this but as long as they’re not harming anyone your kid’s stimming is not a “problem behaviour”

i think sex positive people should have less “obviously nobody thinks teenagers should have sex, but they will anyway, so we at least need to inform them about safe sex,” and switch to “it is literally nobody’s business to make moral judgements about teenagers having sex, because they have bodily autonomy and what they choose to do with their bodies is their business, also everyone needs appropriate education on consent and safe sex and kink so that we all have equal access to safe and consensual sexual interactions”

A king who doesn't really want to and isn't able to run the kingdom properly catches wind of a noble woman who wants to kill him to take over and he realizes she is extremely competent so he decides to propose to her to save everyone the hassle and they have a surprisingly healthy relationship.

I love when people are like “I can’t believe you reblogged that despite their user name, icon, bio, and last twenty posts” bc to me my dash is the only part of this website and I’m not slowing down to look at urls you could all be the same person
