Let me make something perfectly clear: purity culture has no place in the adult Curious George fandom.

the word “woman” was bad to describe us, so people said “female”. the word “female” was bad so people said “afab”. the word “afab” is now bad too (“talking about afab experiences is transmisogynistic”), and you apparently shouldn’t talk about the experiences of “people with vaginas” only, either.
discussing “radical feminism” was bad, so people said “feminism”, but that was bad, too, so people just talked about “misogyny”, but that was a “terf” dogwhistle, so people talked about “gendered socialization” but that’s a transmisogynistic discussion framework, apparently. So where do you go next?
It’s not that the words were offensive, it’s that the power they gave to women to exclusively discuss ourselves and our problems effectively and accurately was. It’s a silencing tactic. We could call ourselves anything as a sex class and it’d still be offensive that we found solidarity. You can’t talk about, find community with, or protect women if acknowledging sex is banned, and you can’t talk about women’s issues if acknowledging sexism is banned.

So you want the BLM and trans colors taken off the pride flag?
how bout we bring this bad boy back? as a designer, the black/brown/trans stripes are fuck-ugly and very well intended but misguided.
gilbert baker also added a lavender stripe before his death to represent diversity that’s actually aesthetically well-reasoned:
#the original rainbow flag represents all SSA people#adding black & brown stripes actually creates the problem it was trying to “solve” by singling out POC as “other” within the community#it's like when they made some walk signs female in a show of performative feminism#i never thought the little walk sign symbol was male but now that you singled out some as female#i have no choice but to conclude that all of the other ones are meant to be men. rather than just the general symbol of a person

God, every time my coworker tells me something about her ex-husband the need to hit him with a car grows stronger
#wdym he wouldn't pick up ur pain meds after u had an emergency c-section bc they made u drowsy which meant he'd have to help w/the kids#wdym he left u w/3 kids at the hospital when u were recovering from hernia surgery#wdym he kept getting u pregnant even tho u told him not to & each one came w/serious complications#every time i think this scrote can't get worse she tells me some insane shit that just sinks to an even lower depth

subtitles should be on automatically. people who don’t want them should have to turn them off
#they should be in theatres too#i can't hear without my eyes#I'm not even super hard of hearing (one of my ears works anyway)#i just. idk. don't always translate noises into meaning?#anyway I don't like going to the movies that much bc w/o subtitles I miss like 30% of the meaning

Every time I see anything about Chappell, it just makes me dislike her more.
she's such a simp for misogynistic kweers she's pioneering a whole new genre of pick-me-ism.

*just a normal walmart employee. not a manager or anything. you have to stand there in the store for 8 hours a day 40 hours a week and do the walmart bullshit. watch the people at the self checkout registers and whatnot. people will be annoying and so mean and dumb as hell every single day and at least once per week someone is gonna drop a whole carton of fruit and explode it all over the floor and someone's baby is gonna puke too. you make $15 per hour
**it doesnt matter what state or country you are in. you get to carry a gun and shoot people who threaten to harm you. nobody can rob you or hurt you at rest stops you get to kill them if they try. you will never be in danger from another person unless you crash your truck. drive safe. you will probably survive the crash but if you hit a normal vehicle the people in it probably will not. also assume you can drive. even if you cant drive now you can drive very well in this scenario no matter how many years it took you to practice. you passed your CDL test with flying colors you are the best truck driver to ever exist. you do have to do the long ass trips (12+ hrs) sometimes but not all the time. you do have to load and unload whatever stuff is inside your semi truck but your company gives you the equipment you need for that but it will still be pretty heavy and very labor intensive. they pay for your gas and your food while you are on the clock. you make $35 per hour
#would not wanna do either bc customer service makes me wanna kms but driving for more than an hour makes my ass cramp up#but truck drivers can make p good money & they're alone all day which sounds nice#plus if i had a labor intensive job I'd be buff again

To put it very bluntly.
You will always make a better impact helping people who need it than trying to hurt people you think deserve it.

Hey
Just wanna know, what do you think about Eminem as a whole? Do you think I can listen to him and like him while being radfem?
This is not a religion. You can do whatever you want. Listening to the Real Slim Shady on loop is not preventing you from having a feminist consciousness.
#what the fuck is going on in the notes#anyway i used to be a huge eminem fan before my big feminist awakening when misogyny didn't bother me so much#now it's ruined & i am a lil sad about it but it is what it is

Abortion rights are gone. Close your fucking legs to these men till 2028. The time for 4b is now, I'm so serious.
#4b fr#it isn't fair that straight women have to give up on finding romantic companionship#but being a woman has never been fair#and this is the most effective way to take control of your life as a woman#even if we get abortion rights back - never forget that men made this happen
