If a population of people—black people, Native people, disabled people, homosexual people, female people—want to create their own exclusive space separate from their oppressor group and this even as a concept is a threat to you, then you are not fighting for inclusivity. You are anti boundaries.

#girlslikeus was a hashtag for survivors of trafficking.

Cotton ceiling was taken from the term “glass ceiling.”

“Nothing about us without us” was from the disability movement.

Think about that for a minute.

here’s the thing, if you consume porn i don’t want to hear your opinion on social issues at all. you don’t like racism but you watch videos from a site that has slavery themed porn? you want to smash the patriarchy but you’ll watch 18 year old girls get pissed on by grown men. you hate homophobes but you’ll watch porn on a site that has videos titled “lesbian forced to take cock”? you want to battle transphobia but you’re okay with pornhub recruiting trans identified teens to be abused on film for a couple hundred bucks? if you can boycott a spice brand for prejudice why can’t you do it for porn? if your activism ends the moment you want to nut, shut your fucking mouth and stop pretending like you give a fuck about any of this.

People playing Elden Ring and looking for the "good" demigod to root for are missing the point. Pick your favorite mass murdering war criminal megalomaniac with mommy issues and endlessly simp for them like the rest of us, cowards.

Fuck yeah

No, I'm not gonna respect your religion when your religion can't even respect me and thinks of me as a sinner who will burn in hell and get judged nasty when that day comes. Actually fuck Off.

CaitVi shippers are celebrating Maddie’s death, but to me, it feels like her death was mainly used for shock value. What’s even more frustrating is how some CaitVi fans aren’t acknowledging Caitlyn’s role in all of this. It’s similar to how straight women who don’t hold their cheating partners accountable. At the same time, I get that Maddie didn’t really serve much of a purpose beyond being a plot device for Caitlyn’s character. So, I can see both sides, but it doesn’t change the fact that Maddie’s death feels cheap and manipulative. I also don’t even understand why they even had a fling to begin with either. 🤨

Rip Maddie Nolen they could never make me hate you bby

I'm just gonna be blunt and raw and honest and unapologetic when dropping this and I could care less how dramatic it might come off. In case someone feels the need to defend what I'm speaking up against:

It's disheartening and heartbreaking when a game I've invested time and energy in doesn't stay true to its elements that made it so captivating. I remember being absolutely in love with dragonspine (I still am) and the atmosphere and I've come to cherish Mondstadt while wandering through there. Natlan is so very cheap. It's ugly. It's horrendous. Flying guns and a fucking motorcycle in genshin is a drastic departure from the setting that the game has been cultivating. See, I've read many people say how ungrateful and bitter and unhappy the bigger part of the fandom is and hell yes, the fuck do you expect? How can we not be?

Natlan introducing industrial and modern aspects feels jarring because it completely erases the vision that many players build up and appreciate. Fontaine's steampunk aesthetic works because it's grounded in its regions thematic identity. Hydro, elegance and a vintage feel.

I've been using genshin as an escape. I just want to immerse myself into a world where I don't have to deal with any mainstream bullshit or industrial influences. It was a place of comfort. Of something magical and pure. And now it's no longer a refuge from the mundane but something that reminds me of it.

And it's not just about the aesthetics; It's about the emotional connection I've had to the game. It's like this escape has been compromised. This safe haven is suddenly invaded by stuff I was trying to get away from.

"Oh you're whining about motorcycles now, what's wrong with you?" That's not what I'm whining about, I'm just so pissed that genshin mixes up all of these elements instead of sticking to a beautiful fantasy setting with no intervention of mainstream crap.

Really had to get all of this off my chest. I know I'm not the only one who thinks like this so yeah. It felt odd seeing so many people hype Natlan up so much, specifically Mavuika. And even Chasca whose kit gives me such a headache. Hell, even riding a dragon would be so much more acceptable and fitting. Especially in Mavuikas case. I guess this is another time where I have to crawl back to fanon and my own daydreams.
