Fermenting in a butch honoring way

[despoticsalad]

but no yeah lets have the conversation:

"the CEO doesnt want to run that kind of website" Excuse, shouldnt have bought the 'go nuts show nuts whatever' website if thats the case. APPEAL DENIED

"we have to follow the TOS of the appstores we're hosted on" Excuse item one, no you dont, item two, you have since those days implimented infrastructure that would allow pornography and sex work on this platform Without violating TOS of any applicable app store. APPEAL DENIED

"we own the site we get to make the rules" Incorrect, this site has only ever made profit when the users willed it. we collectively own the site as a hive mind and no legal change in ownership will change that. APPEAL DENIED

"we have to keep this website safe for the children who use it" Argument based on fallacy banning pornography and sex workers does not prevent pornography and sex work from occuring on the site, it only forces aforementioned users to hide and avoid labling their content appropriately, which REDUCES the safety for children and sex workers alike instead of increasing it, this has been shown to the point that making this argument at all is tantamount to admiting fascist intent APPEAL DENIED

The Outbursts of Everett True was a comic strip that ran in papers from 1905 to 1927, wherein the aforementioned Everett True regularly beat the everliving shit out of rude people as a warning to anyone else who might consider being rude. Men have not only been taking up too much room on public transport for about as long as public transport has existed, but the people around them have been irritated about it for at least a hundred years. The next time someone tries to claim that manspreading is a false phenomenon, please direct them to this strip so that Everett True can correct their misconceptions with an umbrella upside the head.

Got a terf in my sideblog and the reply is not worth deigning with a response but the pinned post?

This? This is a trap. This is concern baiting. Be very sure that shit like this is not in your best interest and does not care about you. The goal of rhetoric like this is conversion.

You’ll be welcomed and asked to ignore transphobia. You will be asked to side with transphobes at the expense of trans women. Eventually, you’ll be asked to see that, hey, maybe you transitioned to escape how terrible it is to be a woman?

This may seem obviously a trap but I see people every day buy into this. People like this do not care about you! They want to “rescue” you and don’t let them convince you otherwise.

always blows my mind as a european when people talk about states like “yeah theres nothing in ohio/montana/wyoming/etc” because i look at a map like but. but theyre so big. every state could qualify as its own country what do you mean theres nothing there. and then i ask people from those states and theyre like “yeah theres nothing here” what do you mean theres nothing there!!!

Fantastic Beasts is suspended indefinitely.

Musk is begging for cash because he made the stupidest purchase in internet history.

Zucky Wucky is hemorrhaging cash because the Metaverse goal of becoming the NFT successor of real estate speculation was met with the deserved mockery at how stupid it was.

Trump is finally being properly prosecuted for crimes he unquestionably and very inconspicuously committed.

Alex Jones owes a billion dollars to Sandy Hook victims.

The Tories are imploding in a schism that might actually result in the collapse of the British empire.

Putin has ran out of army and crawled pathetically to the corner a tiny insurgent army pushed him towards, decades of military propaganda burnt away in months.

Prime Minister Shinzō Abe died with no glory.

The GOP is so confused after the Trump era they don't even know how to run their grifts anymore.

Rings of Power was such a mediocre release Amazon could potentially drop Prime Video altogether.

Turns out 2022 was really the "find out" year. It took a while but I'm loving this season finale so far.

This is what pisses me off about all those white supremacist 'history buffs' who simp for the Roman Empire and shit like that. They refuse to acknowledge just how deeply, deeply slutty the past was, along with being turds of the highest order.

Also this reminds me of all the armour the Victoriasns messed with by taking off the cool paint and heraldry so that they could swoon over nights in shining armour. Like yes, I appreciate the romantic image, but I want to see this nobleman cavorting around in glorious technicolor bitch.

I feel really isolated at the moment. I don't know if that's because it's late, because I'm [under 25] years old or what but it can be really lonely being me. I have friends at [place of learning], like a not insignificant number of them, but I feel so different to them and apart from everyone that it's kinda heartbreaking. It doesn't help that I only really get to see them in [place of learning] because we have pretty different ideas of having fun with friends. I don't go to a lot of parties, I don't drink, I don't take any drugs that aren't prescribed to me.

I really want to have fun with them and be able to talk and be a friend outside of the weird normative claustrophobia of [place of learning] but every time I try to organise something it all falls apart, so it feels like why should I even bother? My parents were really big on Internet safety when I was younger, so I don't actually know a single person I haven't met in person. So I feel pretty isolated right now.

Probably only two people will ever see this, so I'm not really sure why I'm writing it down. I guess it's comforting, in a way, even if it feels a tad humiliating to say this without an audience, to just speak into the void knowing it won't answer. I'm probably going to spend the next three days obsessing over if anyone actually reads this. Hey ho, que sera sera and all that.
