Instagram post: transphobic

People in the comments: no she meant men who wear dresses to get into women's bathrooms to snatch kids, it's not all about you!!

Original poster: no, I am being transphobic

"Don't be ableist uwu!!!"

Okay quick questions then.

How seriously do you take The Game? If someone tells you, "I saw a post that says I won the game!" Is your response to immediately say "noooooo that's not how it works!!!" Yeah I know how it works. It literally only exists to inflict misery on others and that you supposedly can't win no matter what you do, wreaking havoc on people who have severe anxiety? Grow the fuck up. I'm sorry if this miserable piece of shit torture game is somehow something that you want to keep alive but newsflash. We're not all just sitting around in the utopian commune sipping martinis without having to stress about whether or not we'll have somewhere to stay next month or where our next meal will come from or whether or not the almighty capitalists decide we deserve to get our next dose of medicine so maybe just let the stupid game die.

How do you judge people who consume media you consider "problematic?" Yeah. Those media. Hazbin Hotel. Helluva Boss. Bayonetta. Etc. Like. I'm sorry if trans people who were already into the Bayonetta series were excited to buy the newest game in it and got even more excited to buy it when they fired a transphobic VA. Some people have depression and easy sources of serotonin are in short fucking supply for us and need our comfort media and you saying that we should deny ourselves happiness because you have issues with said comfort media isn't very leftist of you actually.

How much patience do you have for people who talk for hours about one specific subject? Actually. Genuinely. You can post about "OMG when she infodumps 🥺 choke me mommy" all you want. But when an actual autistic trans gal is trying to explain the lore of borderlands or TF2 and is stumbling over her words and getting nervous because nobody really likes her and she's been consistently shut down and/or ignored and/or bullied for what a nerd she is? How patient and understanding are you.

How much patience do you have for people who say, "I'm sorry, can you please say/explain that again?" Whether after 5 seconds, 5 minutes, 5 hours, or 5 months, there's multiple reasons someone might struggle with this. They might have memory issues. They might have hearing issues. They might have attention span issues. They might have ADHD. They might have DID or OSDD. They might be stressed out and have a million different things on their mind. Or they might have just missed what you said. They might have not heard it or they might have just forgotten.

The point is. I get that it's easy to get caught up in ideals and paper activism but you have to remember that not being ableist requires work. It means that you can't always judge someone by what they enjoy. It means that you have to actually treat disabled people like people. If you don't take actual people into account during your activism, it doesn't mean jack shit. Unlearn your biases. Hopefully this gains some traction but I am begging you to see beyond a black and white viewpoint.

Ranking famous slashers (based on how likely they are to be cool with trans people)

(Disclaimer: this is a very silly ironic post for pride month).

Chucky (Child's Play)

In what can only be described as an "absolute hum-dinger" of an opening entry, we have Chucky, the only slasher who has (and explicitly supports) a transgender child. Sure. You know what? Good for him.

2. Ash Williams (The Evil Dead franchise)

"Uhh this guy isn't a slasher!" He has a chainsaw for a hand. He's killed 65+ deadites over the course of four movies and a goofy tv show with said grisly chainsaw hand. I will die on the hill that Ash is a good-aligned slasher. Anyway, Ash would also be happy to learn that trans women being more widely-accepted means there are More Women. He wouldn't even have to have being trans explained to him, he'd get it. He's dealt with so much weird shit, someone wanting to transition is nothing. Hail to the king, baby.

3. Herbert West (Re-Animator)

Herbert West looks so much like one of my trans guy friends in real life that I'm just going to decide that he's trans. My guy was synthesizing HRT in his wacky little lab long before he was filling vials with glowing green goo to raise the dead. He's still ranked lower than Ash, though, because he's kind of cringe in general. Sorry, Herbie baby

4. Bubba Sawyer (The Texas Chainsaw Massacre)

Bubba definitely doesn't care about anyone's gender. He's killing them with chainsaws. That being said, the exceptions to this would occur within his own family. If one of Bubba's brothers came out as trans and you decided to be transphobic, Bubba would definitely cut you into even grislier, gorier little pieces than usual, because he's a bro like that.

5. Jason Voorhees (Friday the 13th)

Jason is a conceptually hilarious character at this point, and between all of the deaths and resurrections and visits to Hell and more deaths and resurrections, he's probably had time enough to come to terms with trans people. He just wants to kill everyone at Crystal Lake, for god's sakes. Let him be. (Also, he fought a transphobe--I will explain this remark later in this post.)

6. Daniel Robitaille (Candyman)

Daniel's been dead for quite a while, so that might be a minor roadblock to his understanding of trans people. That being said, he seemed to navigate the modern world pretty deftly in the original Candyman. You might have to explain transitioning to him a bit, but he'd get the concept pretty quickly. He might still kill you with his hook, though. Sorry.

7. Carrie White (Carrie)

Carrie is in a complicated place, because yes, she was raised in a very sheltered, evangelical environment, but we must consider that she is a girlboss and a girlbeast. My verdict? After an initial period of "not getting it," Carrie would throw herself whole hog into being a trans ally. If you are trans, Carrie will be there to light transphobic people on fire. This is not an offer, it is a statement of intent. Be ready for her arrival.

8. Michael Myers (Halloween)

I think that Michael forgot what gender is a while back.

9. Hannibal Lecter (Silence of the Lambs + other movies)

Uuugh... see, I think that Hannibal would absolutely use the right pronouns and name for a trans person, but he'd definitely ask those really annoying "tell me, Will" style questions about your gender over a plate of definitely-not-human liver and fava beans. "Do you feel as though you are step in step with God Himself when you take your estrogen pills, as though your are joining in the act of divine creation?" No, Hannibal, she is just transitioning. Please chill.

11. Billy Lenz (Black Christmas)

Diversity win and loss: Billy Lenz is the world's first trans-inclusive radical misogynist! :/

12. Billy Loomis and Stu Macher (Scream)

Ghostface fans, I am so sorry, but these are two misogynistic teenage boys from the 90's. I do not have high hopes for them.

13. Freddy Krueger (Nightmare on Elm Street)

This guy is the transphobe Jason fought. Booooo. Tomatoes. I'm throwing tomatoes!

ANYWAYS ENOUGH SHITTY DISCOURSE!!!!!!

I'm going to lay out my rules and EVERYTHING YOU CAN EXPECT FROM THIS BLOG. IT WILL BE WORDY BECAUSE I WANT TO BE AS CLEAR AS POSSIBLE AND LEAVE NO ROOM FOR MISINTERPRETATION

I do NOT create content that is NSFW, Problematic, or that has "Extreme" dark themes. You will never see content depicting inc*st/n0n-c*n or even vanilla NSFW or anything like that like that from me, I am not comfortable with it! I would also ask that no body discuss/bring up anything in regards to it either! i.e., please don't bring up dreamm/re, or any other severe darkships. I do not have a "dark/nsfw alt" either on any other website, I am just uncomfortable across the board. Please respect that.

I will NOT reblog problematic content. You just straight up will never see me discuss it anywhere (unless im telling people to stop talking about it LMAO)

I will reblog artwork from other artists!! I do not police or do a deep dive of a person's blog before I reblog their artwork if I enjoy it. It is up to you as a internet user to curate and navigate your experience once you leave my blog. Someone else's blog has nothing to do with me, nor does it mean i am "promoting them" ???? Unless someone is a GENUINE homo/transphobe, racist, groomer, genuine piece of shit with proof, I will block them and delete the reblog. But I will not engage with proship/antiship discourse as it has gone way too far way too quickly.

If I interact with and am friendly with other blogs who create "problematic" (mostly just dreamm/re, because of this fandom that's kinda the biggest problem here lmao) content, then that's all I'm being - friendly. I know this is crazy, but im not "supporting" people. People are not political campaigns. Being friends with people and being friendly with them does not mean I agree with and support every decision they have ever made in their life. I am being kind to them as another human being on this planet. If you don't like them that's fine, but I find it really shitty when people try to get mad at me for things that the guy standing next to me did. Again, once you leave my blog and go to another person's blog, you are on a whole ass other person's blog.

I will not engage in label discourse, I will not engage in toxicity of any kind, and I will not engage in ANY sort of drama. Keep all that shit out of here. My blog is just for me to have fun and be silly on, do not bring weird shit here. Be NORMAL!!!!!!! WHADDA HELL!!!! ITS NOT HARD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

anyways the yapfest is over. Be normal and kind. or else a shadow creature will literally eat your toenails off your toes and you will wake up and they will be FLESH STUMPS.

Given how viv probably knows Ashely n Micheal are on the Lackadaisy team it wouldn't surprise me if that was the sole reason for the bs terf accusations. Which feels especially heinous cause she most likely also knows that they both work with and are friends(?) With goose, a trans woman.

Also super ironic cause ive seen terf fans of viv. Almost feels more like a mix of projection of her own transphobia and exaggerating that projection to the extreme that would get the most traction on twitter.

Also i keep thinking back to the one terf i saw in tags a year ago who unironically went "sallie is trans? Oh well its hell" (iirc) when an anon tried to drill her for inconsistencies despite the blatant and obvious horn that youd think a "we can always tell" crowd bigot would notice and acting like she is someone that fits in with the fandom. Especially with how many hb pfps will say some of the most transphobic garbage and misgender like crazy its making me think there may be be a large terf following the viv has. Which if im right just makes the projection even grosser because if anything shes directing all the terfs that follow her to the lackadaisy just because she cant handle admitting fault.

Also the fact that viv justifies her shit female characters with "this is for the the boys☺" but according to rumours wants to give sallie may a couple eps instead of any other female character. It just. Kind of smells of something to me, like viv is just a regular lying two-faced transphobe.

Makes me wonder if she has terfs on her team-not to the levels of the lackadaisy accusations she made ofc. Especially since one of the trans imps in the mammon ep was a animators impsona and i know kittensneeze (trans masc lesbian) works/ed for spindlehorse at some point-just 2 examples off the top of my head. Just, her transphobia. The transphobia and literal terfs in her audience. All of that just. Wouldnt surprise me if there are a couple workers that she *knows* are terfs and pretends theres no issue with her knowingly hiring terfs purely because she has so many trans workers that she feels it balances it out.

idk maybe there are no terfs on spindle staff but the amount of literal terfs and transphobic pieces of shit in the fanbase has me thinking.

I think Vivzie's fandom is a breeding ground for the same brand of transphobia Vivzie herself subscribes to -- "Trans people are super awesome and valid and worthy of respect until they do something I don't like, and then all bets are off."

They'd never call themselves terfs or transphobes, a lot of them have twitter bios letting everyone know how progressive they are, but if you don't toe the line, you're a crazy woman or an ugly man.

JJK fans love the Kenjaku is Yuji’s mom reveal so why is there such opposition in OP fandom to the Crocodile is Luffy’s birthing-dad theory?

I mean I'm not into JJK (I watched Season 1 and thought it was fine) so I can't really comment on that situation (like how it plays out in that story* and what their fandom is like), but I think in OP's case it just comes down to rampant transphobia?

*(Okay I quickly looked up What The Situation seemed to be in JJK and as far as I can tell, although Kenjaku took over the body of Yuji's mom and gave birth to the kid, he does not seem to be a binary trans person? Rather, he's just some inhuman, monstrous entity who took over a body of a poor woman for a while before going back to presenting as male? Like there is an argument to be made that Kenjaku could be read as genderfluid or nonbinary (or even a GNC trans woman because Kenjaku does not have to possess Women Only Forever to be a woman), but you could also just ignore the potential queerness of the character entirely? And just treat him as a cishet murderous monster? (Who can do queer shit if he feels like being experimental or has just evil master plan to fulfill because he's already "morally corrupt" so having a gay phase is just a cherry on top at this point) But again because I'm not into JJK I don't know how that reveal has been treated in the story at all so I can't comment on it really)

More specifically; One Piece is a much, much older series, and as an older series, its fanbase is also older. And when you have an older fanbase, it's more likely there'll be "old fashioned" transphobic and queerphobic fans in general. Like a new series like JJK may be a bit more likely to attract younger, more open-minded fans, where as OP's fanbase can base as old as the series itself. (Mind you I'm not saying old OP fans are queerphobic by default, fuck I'm almost 30 myself lmao)

Not helped by the fact that, while I do sincerely believe Oda is for Queer Liberation, his representation of queerness in One Piece has been Imperfect at Best, often instead reinforcing western queerphobic ideas about queer people instead. So on a surface level the transphobes can look at OP and simply assume Oda is on their side, and when you add to the fact how for a long time there was this absolute echo chamber where nobody could ever say anything negative about Oda ever... Yeah, despite Oda's representation improving, the transphobic side of the fandom has not grown one bit.

Thus, we have a lot of older fans who view Crocodile as A (cishet) Masculine Manly Man, a type of guy some men kinda look up to (and someone a lot of women find hot). And many of those people would probably see it as a threat to their own masculinity if The Manly Man Crocodile turned out to be """a chick""". And even if it didn't, some of them just hate trans people and don't want him to be trans. They'd accuse Oda of """going woke""" if Crocodile did turn out to be trans. They'd accuse him of "changing the character" (actually seen people say that).

And all of that shit would just be amplified if Crocodile was not just a trans man but also had been the one who had given birth to Luffy. Especially because then there'd be no way for them to ignore it in the story, as that would be like an important plot point and crucial character lore. There's be no way to ignore the fact that Monkey D. Luffy has two fathers, and one of them is a gay trans man. And that mere concept I'm sure makes the transphobes' blood boil.

Or at least, this is what I'm assuming is going on deep in the psyche of the most openly transphobic OP fans.

The other aspect could be just that a lot of people haven't actually done like a deep dive into the theory and have just heard the surface level meme version of it, and like. Like I had heard of the theory like 7+ years ago maybe, but only in the context of a piece of joke fanart. I never thought it was An Actual Theory until last September (and proceeded to lose my mind when I fell down into that rabbithole), like until then had you asked me about Crocodad I would've been like "lol what?"

But like. I dunno man. Usually when you see people discuss the theory on Reddit or elsewhere, the explicitly negative comments and takes about the theory just tend to call it "stupid" without explaining why they feel that way. So I can't say for sure why the OP fans hate the theory. I can only guess these are the main reasons why???

[blood-choke]

maybe I'm really stupid and partially asleep, but even though mc is a cis woman they keep talking as if she suffered a lot because of... it? like if she suffered the same as someone trans, am I missing something? ​is it purely because of the way she dresses? like telling V "you know I'm not a man right" like what lol how could she not know? and H talking about her own life experiences and saying mc must know how she feels... hm idk if she does she's white. ANYWAY I LOVE IT SO MUCH MUAH :*

you're right, there's not a lot of variation between cis or trans mcs at the moment. to be honest, i don't consider the cis mc "cis" anyways, she's butch. either way, both versions of her dressed and passed as a man previously, and she still presents very masculine & may be mistaken as a man.

obviously, it's not the same as if she were a trans woman, but to the random bigot in the bathroom, it doesn't make a difference.

with mc's memory gone, she has complicated feelings about her gender; she knows that she spent a lot of time as a man working blue collar jobs, and that from what little information she's managed to pry from Valentina or piece together on her own, she knows that she seemed to have accepted it and even liked it right before her entombment. but now she doesn't have to do that anymore, and she's not sure what that means for her when a lot of her identity was wrapped up in this kind of drag king-esque performance.

this is also the same for the trans mc, though with the added anxiety of being trans. i didn't change the conversation between mcs because i honestly didn't feel it was necessary; the player knows how their character feels & can decide precisely where the mc's fear is truly coming from - if it's because she's trans & butch or if it's just because she's butch.

when she has that conversation with Valentina, it's not that she thinks Valentina is being literally transphobic or anything like that. when they look at the painting of her and Valentina, and when Valentina calls her "husband," she's afraid that because she's butch/trans, and because she used to pretend to literally be a man, then Valentina is afraid of her and potentially sees her truly as a man, and more specifically, as Standard.

there are plenty of people (including lgbt people) that treat butches like this. something i've mentioned a few times here is the term "heteropatriarchal" which is typically applied to butches and butch/femme relationships. basically people equate butches to straight men enforcing the patriarchy because they're choosing to "emulate" them. there are a lot of lesbians that hate butches & treat them like shit because they're considered the "bad" lesbians. there are a lot of people that are critical of butch/femme because they think it's "heteronormative" because, again, they think butch = man and femme = woman. and all of this is doubly so for transfem butches.

with Hana, she is trans, so after the mc gets screamed at in the bathroom, that's what she's talking about. before that, when they have the first conversation in the car, Hana should actually always tell a white mc that she can't understand. after the bathroom, Hana will only confide that she's trans with an mc that has a high enough relationship with her, and with white mcs she should say something about this being "the one curse that we do share" but otherwise she should make it explicitly clear that the mc (and Valentina for that matter) can't understand her experience.

[incarnateirony]

It shouldn't have to be like this guys. I genuinely should not have to go on 3+ day long trans issues benders to get even mildly heard about this.

Society is fundamentally broken if allies refuse to listen because they're too self absorbed in their own shit of them being the victims versus any kind of men at all times regardless of what that man is functionally doing or how he's acting.

I am like. Begging the women of this fandom to listen. Shut up and listen. Not shut up because you're a woman, but shut up because you're fucking bulldozing trans men nonstop and selling yourself that you're being the bestest ally ever while doing it and plugging your ears when I tell you that you're leagues out of pocket.

And the big secret is, you guys are always out of pocket. This isn't just Suddenly Happening Every Two Hours Now. This is shit I've dealt with ever since I came out. Nobody pearl clutched and pretended to be Afraid of Uncomfortable when it was a loud lesbian warrior that wouldn't shut up for any man.

Now that I'm a trans man? The majority of my day is spent by women patrolling every little piece of what I fucking say and holding onto it like a goddamn grudge and refusing apologies over literally tiny ridiculously SHOULD NOT BE AN ISSUE problems, because you guys don't want to unpack your daddy issues and you send it at the nearest poor bastard in your radius, which tends to be an LGBTQ man, because we're the ones trying to support you, but you guys can't get your head out of your own bullshit.

I spent my life being told by men I spoke too loud, who tried to shut me up. I'm not gonna spend the second half of my life being told by women I speak too loud trying to shut me up. It ain't fuckin happening fam, and it ain't okay just because you're a woman, and you are literally all doing it.

Even very good, very intelligent friends, just keep fucking doing it. I literally had a convo where I SENSED the bullshit. "Can I ask you a favor?" "Is it going to be to mute my human experience for someone else's comfort because they can't process human interaction like adults?" "Huh? What no I have no idea what you're talking about." "Oh good. Because I thought you were about to hand me another transphobic cactus." "SO ANYWAY IT'S EXACTLY THAT."

What? My Friend Am Are Uncomfortable

fam I am so tired of white women being convinced my life experience and goal needs to be to specifically Make Them Comfortable with no fucking human regard for my own comfort in the social balance. It is not my job to pay for all of the sins of the patriarchy. I can do my best to be a good man in any moment and conscious of issues but I can't fix the patriarchy all by myself, I'm sorry.

It's like women are literally objectively refusing to onboard this information. I sit down serious as shit in front of a friend and go, "You are not the social minority in this situation. You are the social majority constantly enforcing your parameters on a much smaller minority. You literally can not or should not be Concerned or Uncomfortable when there are literally hundreds of you and like one of me, and if you are, there's a deeper problem here, and it yet again is not me. This is a microaggression."

Then yall go off into fuckin some other topic to avoid looking at it and I grab you by the noses and sit you down again and go no, this is a microaggression, susan, you're going to stop doing it, just like the 10 other friends I've had the come to jesus moment with in the last 72 hours about doing this shit.

[plonk] bounces right off your fuckin heads. No can be microaggression because I Woman Am Uncomfortable Man Bad? fucking stop it LEAVE US BE. YOU DONT GET TO TREAT US LIKE YOUR HEADHUNT OF RANDOM REDDIT BOYS ALL THE GODDAMN TIME. LEAVE US BE. PROCESS YOUR SHIT LIKE ADULTS.

But no every time Woman Mad Man Spoke Big so then Complain To Other Friend who then Complain To Other Friend who then All Complain to Me so somehow even after I've apologized for any minor infraction at length I get the Grownassed Women Cant Get Over Tiny Shit Must Harass Man For Next 3 Hours bus rolling up, but posed under innocent doe eyes. HUH WHAT? NO IDK WHAT YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT BUT ALSO YES EXACTLY THAT.

We're not angry and telling you to fuck off with that shit because we're misogynists. We're angry and telling you to fuck off because we lived as women, and you know what, we're fucking angry and embarrassed at what we're seeing out of you from that corner of lived experience too, because goddamn this is some entitled bullshit.

Yall don't realize you're doing it and you all think it's okay for you to individually act like this so then hundreds of women will pull the same Dont Speak Too Loud shit on One Lone Trans Man and completely miss that they're the majority kicking around the minority because it's fun.

Just because cis men spent their whole lives trying to make you shut up doesn't mean you need to retaliate your bullshit on us and do the same to us. Stop it.

Henceforth submit all Vague Concerns And Discomfort to my mailbox

[aro-throughyourchest]

I would very much like to hear your trans Wilbur headcanons!

OHHHHHHH boy I’m not on my computer so this might not be as fast as I want it to be but sit down so you can strap in I’m just getting started

(For context even pre-transition we’re gonna use she/he/it pronouns and both identifiers.)

Uhhh trans-typical trigger warnings. We’re not just getting into the “cosmetic” shit of being trans.

So C!Wilbur for years before his death: egg. I made an edit about it that which is in my bigender wilbur tag but anyway yeah. Girlie was deeep in the closet. She was envious of all the people who got to live the life they wanted and feel bad about it or completely oblivious to it. (c!Eret came out to it and bro didn’t even fucking realize just died a little on the inside and thought it was transphobic.)

She’s so attached to a nonexistent “manhood” that she’s actively pushing herself further in the closet, because men are big and strong and tough and she’s leading a country, so if there’s any doubts about being a man there’s definitely no time for that! (Which there aren’t, so she’s good.) It’s never liked armor and always brushed the idea off, and if it visualizes itself in a dress every once in a while and would love to model one, or pretends his coat was just was a little bit longer, then no one needs to know. And he doesn’t need to understand.

Pogtopia just turns it up to eleven. Its body is wrong and that’s bad, and she keeps visualizing herself like a man, like Schlatt, and crying. But also a lot of it is also the normal crying? And this kind of crying is different from the crying she usually does, the crying that Tommy doesn’t know how to help and the crying that Techno suspiciously says nothing on. There are no mirrors in Pogtopia. For good reason. There are mirrors in Schlatt’s office.

Something is wrong he can tell, something is wrong. And she doesn’t know what it is, and it scares the living fuck out of her.

Fast forward a few years into limbo, Wilbur is fiddling with her shirt and suddenly a thought: hey, what if I had tits. Like actual ones? The thought just takes him so far off guard, it stops fiddling with its shirt entirely, dropping it in the embarrassment. What the fuck?

The thoughts continue like this and with no one to talk to, Wilbur can literally do nothing but self-reflect, and oh my God does he want to wear dresses? Does she want long hair? It’s stuck in the body and with limbo allowing no recluse, he mourns.

It suffers like this for a while, eventually concluding, “I am what I am,” but it’s still not an answer. It’s just a dismissal.

Wilbur doesn’t bring it up when Tommy follows him into to limbo, too busy occupied with having someone for the first time. And if she lets a few things slip that Tommy definitely doesn’t catch uhhhh who knows.

Revival drags him back to life. And suddenly, his body has weight again, he can feel the warmth on his skin, and the air in between his lungs, and it’s everything he ever wanted. Then crash.

All the pieces he tried to forget over limbo just come hurtling back like a bullet train. Too loose shirt, hair that doesn’t feel right, too masculine, not what he wants- What he wants?

This is all too much, he can’t figure this shit out on his own.

Despite himself (herself?), she goes to find Eret. Niki might kill her, and going to his son about this, it just simply couldn’t take. It remembers sixteen years ago, when they came out to Wilbur. Or was it a year? Fuck.

Either way.. Breathe tepid and heart racing, he knocks on the door to Eret’s museum. She opens, and God, this just isn’t worth it. It turns to run away and feels a hand on its shoulder. Something cold runs up the spine of his back, and she immediately smacks the hand away, fully ready to blow her top. Then it falters. He’s ready to walk off, call this a bust and just go home, but then Eret speaks: “Wilbur?”

God.

“…Can we talk about something?”

Surprisingly, the first thing on Eret’s mind wasn’t Wilbur’s coming out. (Crazy, right?) They talk properly about all the shit that’s happened with conversations they really needed to have, Wilbur definitely cried a few times, tried his best to not start arguments, but somehow, he went in for an explanation and came back with one of his oldest enemies by his side.

What he thought would be a small talk eventually blossomed into her first real reconciliation.

He’s so anxious to try on a dress, a dichotomy from the confident, suave Wilbur Eret once knew, but as she slipped it on, her eyes lit up. Eret brushed out its hair for it, pulling the lower half of it into a ponytail and talking about how fast Wilbur’s hair already grows. Its heart swells with pride.

Bigender. That was the word. She rolled it over on her tongue over and over again, bigender. It fit. Its identity wasn’t black and white, no one or the other. Because yeah, sometimes he was a guy, and sometimes she was a fucking girl. God.

Being rude to servers, wasting food, people that project their feelings onto the actions of domesticated animals and babies for fun, when an easily recognizable thing in a foreign piece of media gets localized into something stupid, "cute" animal videos where the animal is being mistreated, exotic pet owners, expensive rice, expensive soda, when tv shows' seasons are spread over multiple streaming services vs. all being on one or more, people that find kate upton attractive, people raising their voices, cars that have the bass turned up so loud you hear the chassis rattling like its going to explode more than you hear the actual music, people that tell you to "just google it", ghosting, people making arguments against nobody because they want to look enlightened, christians acting oppressed, people that hate the homestuck and hlvrai fanbase, people that make fandom their whole personalities, conspicuous consumption, people who talk about firebombing walmarts n shit who have never done anything in their lives to help their communities, when I send something to someone for them to read and they never get around to reading it because they don't have the patience to, overconfident men, when someone eggs me on and on to play a video game so we can play together and then when I start playing it they suddenly don't have any time to play it with me anymore, when settings have lore than make whole swaths of species ontologically evil, people who are picky about grammar and spelling, people who say skyrim is the worst elder scrolls game, having to play tabletop RPGs by "official play" guidelines, delivery fees that don't even go to the delivery driver, people who talk about cool weapons "not being practical", hats with poor craftsmanship, the feel of wearing converse shoes, youtube accent, cis white dudes being at the forefront of progressiveness in pop culture, people assuming you understand whatever references they make to a thing adjacent to something you do know about but personally don't care about, farting in my direction, uncreative misappropriation of the word "golem", wanting to fuck league of legends characters, people that think cat girls are more popular than puppy girls in real life, deodorant, people that get pissy about buying pre-minced garlic, when arizona ice tea is more expensive than 1 dollar a can, mr. beast's face, the term "thicc" and its consequences, people who like fat asses and thick thighs who hate it when girls are fat, when people conflate the dnd class list as having actual ramifications in wider fantasy media, people who think weed is bad, asking for criticism and only receiving complaints, people that say chinese-american or texmex cuisine isnt "authentic", formalities, out of character lewd fanart especially if it's of a strong, dominant woman in a submissive position with toned down muscles, when RPGs butch bait me,

blonde girls with no personality, NHentai's tag search system, mid shounen dominating the western anime scene, when someone says something is "so gay" but its just their fandom headcanons, when one take from a post or article gets so popular when you bring up the thing it's related to people can't not bring it up every time the topic appears, people that try to get the attention of zoo animals, people that own over 700 dollars worth of firearms that aren't collectors like actual collectors not fuckin Clint from the suburbs that feels like a man only cause he owns an AR-15 and a Desert Eagle , lack of cool and edgy plus size character designs, when people call transphobic caricatures "GNC AF", gum immediately losing its flavor, the olive oil industry, when people tell me "just emulate it" or "just pirate it" and roll their eyes when I tell them I'm worried about viruses, games that rip off grand theft auto, when charity bundles on itch.io are 80% unfinished PWYW proof of concept demos put there to get good will advertising, people who are concerned with Wario's honor, lack of plus size yuri, people who turn their noses up to foreign foods, RPGs with character customization that won't let you play as a girl, doing my taxes, when people are coy about details, dudes that want to fuck alstolfo, slowed with reverb remixes, the memeification of phonk, the price of video games, waiting on game downloads after putting the disc into the console, people doing me favors and getting passive-aggressive about it later when I didn't ask for it/tried to ease the burden of it as much as possible, when people ask me what I want on my burger when the menu clearly outlines what toppings the burger is meant to come with, trying to find a tf2 classic server without additional weapon mods that break the game, polo shirts

34:What I find attractive in women

Interesting personality, eager to praise, understanding, warm, enjoys eating, weird, decent fashion sense, messy bedroom/car, doesn't wear any strong artificial scents, progressive stances on neurodivergence and psychology, physically affectionate, has incorporated something like a kind of animal or fantastical concept into their identity, caring, vaguely maternal at times, willing to play video games and watch youtube poops, sense of humor, soft, will do drugs with me in a level-headed manner, likes goofy looking cocktails and desserts, not above eating a 5 dollar hamburger on a date, into fat girls, has a broad definition of what sex is, ideally transgender, nice lap to lay head in, endurance to have 300lbs on top of them for some period of time, willing to buy things for me, kinky in a cringe way, a bit ugly (by society's standards), older than me, into obscure animes and music, appreciates a good cup of coffee, lax style, cringe resistant, quiet, into plushies, total nerd, in terms of appearance I like a very diverse range of those to the point where it doesn't factor in as much but I find conventionally attractive people boring and visible ribs make me feel concerned and uncomfortable

newer intro and dni page ig

heyo! im Bon (please note that i will let like a handful of people call me Bonnie so if you see anyone referring to me as that, its just a friend :]) my pronouns are he/him/they/them and maybe even it/its (im a lil unsure so in a sort of trail stage-) i should add that i am autistic so sometimes it can be hard for me to learn some shit or understand it (i didnt know what moots- or mutual where for years and have embarrassed myself so many times bc of it) i do struggle to make the first move of talking to people so-

account are @bonnie39-reblogs (i post mainly art here when i make it)

fandoms im in! :D -

-dsaf-fnaf-madcom-bugbo-ace attorney-furry community-regretavator-amazing digital circus-good omens-slime rancher-sally face-monster prom-little nightmares-spirit fare-dialtown!!!!-weird core-undertail-batim-the stanley parable-mandela catalouge-walten files-ena-spooky month

im just gonna get a dni out the way very quickly as i have tried to use cards and such- no clue how to use em ._.

proshippers, pedo/maps, nazis, homophobes/transphobes, people i have blocked for a reason (you know who you are, if you're stalking my page, its fucking desperate, fuck off) people who are aware someone is super controversial and still supports them, nsfw accounts (i can not stress this enough. you will be blocked on the spot, i am still a minor) Alfred playhouse fans (i do not care what excuse you have for watching and enjoying it, you're not welcome here) anti furrys/therians (reminder that the "animals" you threaten to kill are infact real fucking humans.) kink accounts (you guys are on the biggest no no list) might add more later but for now thats it.

i would like to say this is a safe place for anyone else unless you're just a outright piece of shit or asshole, also should note that please for the love of god just- dont be outright creepy- like im fine with sex jokes and all that, including dark humour but as long as it doesn't get ablest or overall creepy you're more then welcome to just come chill :]

another thing- if i am supporting someone controversial TELL ME i supported and defended someone who had allegations and others saying they have seen god awful art from a person and no one told me for ages- which lead to many- many angry rants from me because i was upset that i was being harassed.

oh also i am infact aroace :D and this is a safe place for any lgbtqia+ members as long as you dont exclude others in our community :^

TW: harsh language, anger.

If you're homophobic, transphobic, sexist, ableist, racist, classist, or just a horrible person in general, get the FUCK off my page, this isn't the fucking place for you.

If you're not going to respect other people and support them through whatever they're going through, don't expect me to look at you as anything other than a literal pile of shit. Yeah, I am gonna mock you and look down on you, because you look stupid as fuck saying that other people shouldn't be who they are.

Literally I don't want to understand you're fucking logic, because being gay, trans, disabled, black, poor, etc. Isn't a fucking CHOICE, so why the literal fuck would you EVER think that it's okay to hate someone based on something they DIDN'T FUCKING CHOOSE. Like do you think I WANTED to be this way? You think I WANTED to be traumatized as hell, hated for existing, etc.? You think people WANT to be poor, or colored, or any different than you? Look at the way you treat these people and ask yourself that. The answer is: FUCK NO, if I had a choice when I was younger, I would've been loved and cared for, I would've had friends, I would've been rich as fuck, but now? I have no fucking option other than to say my mind because some people think that it's okay to hate others for being different, which is fucking disgusting.

If you act like that, you're a bad person and I hate you, point blank period. There is absolutely no fucking reason to be like that other than the fact that you're a privileged piece of shit who thinks they deserve more than others, which is fucking gross. Nobody deserves to be hated and literally MURDERED for being different, but anyone who acts like that DEFINITELY deserves to be hated for being a piece of shit and supporting people who hurt others 🙄

Also yeah, I'm nonbinary, gay as hell, disabled, have a ton of mental illnesses, autistic, etc. Don't fucking try to tell me that you treat me like you do everyone else, because I've seen how you fuckers treat people like me, and I don't believe your bullshit lies about "supporting" us at fucking all. Besides, people like me have support needs, so fuck you if you think treating us the same way as everyone else is enough. You have to fucking accommodate people like me, if you don't, you're being a shit person. I'm not sorry for saying any of this, in fucking tired of living life to everyone else's expectations when I can barely function in this society as it is. Fuck off if you think like this, I don't want you here.

ALSO FOR MY ALLIES: feel free to reblog this to tell anyone like that to fuck off of your page too, ily 🥰

[batsarebetterthanpeople]

Hey do you have any advice for using Grindr/other dating apps as a trans guy? I really wanna get laid but my friends keep telling me that it's a waste of time :(

Ok so if you want to get laid and you fuck men I would go with Grindr if you want dates I would look elsewhere.

Secondly. I may be benefiting from a certain level of pretty privilege when I say this but I've been open with my body count on here. Idk what it is but I stopped counting at 40 and that was over a year ago. If I can do that I'm certain you can bag at least one guy.

So a lot of my advice is gonna be for trans guys who are hot because that is my experience so what works for me might not work for you but honestly I would use trial and error to figure out your method. Also all of this advice is Grindr specific because I like to talk to guys before I decide so the matching apps never really worked for me.

So my methods is I have a face pic and I have a very slutty bio and I just wait for people to message me. Occasionally if I really think a guys hot I tap him and if I really think a guys hot and he has trans friendly in his bio I message him. Grindr doesn't make you swipe through anyone can message anyone. This has benefits and drawbacks. I've gotten a few rather mean transphobic messages and I just block the guy and move on it's not really that big of a deal to me.

Anyway one thing I would recommend is using tags and tribes. I'm not crazy about that terminology of "tribes" but I'll show you what I mean

Tags have a million options, tribes only have a few are your options. People filter for them. I would really recommend clicking the trans one and putting the FTM tag in your tags because it'll make it easier for people looking for trans partners to find you.

Honestly people filter for all the information so I would fill it out. depending on what they're looking for but the trans tribe is the one that is trans specific

Now my next piece of advice: get used to unsolicited dick pics. People open with cock pics all the time that's just how it is on there. If you're not into it it's better just to go to another app.

There's a lot of blank profiles on there. Unlike on here those guys are not spam they're DL. Your milage might vary on them because there's a million reasons a guy might be DL. He could be a cheater but equally he could be a professor at the local college who doesn't want his students to find him. I know a drag queen who has a blank profile because she preforms at one of the biggest clubs in the city and if she has a face pic up people ask her if she's that little Latin boy who does JLO and are weird to about it. So not having a PFP doesn't say much about someone. I demand a face pic but I don't block for being blank

Finally don't take any shit from people. There's always another guy. People on there will do anything to get you to fuck them. They feel very entitled to hole you need to be entitled back. They'll ask you for unreciprocated head, they'll try to get you to host even when you say you can't, theyll text you come over when you are fully 100 miles away. You're gonna have to tell a lot of people no repeatedly.

Oh and one last thing: for some reason putting no cops no military in your profile gets you falsely reported. No Republicans appears not to have the same effect and a lot of guys will use the military tag so if you're not down with them just block they're open about it

[plantpest]

in general it is best not to post a message from someone anonymously accusing someone else of something if you are not 1000% sure they are correct. or even then, you could just block and move on. idk anything about the people involved here but it is a very common tactic to send a message to a popularish blog accusing someone of something because people love to dogpile.

m8 if someone tells you a person you like actually is a deeply hateful person and you find evidence of the claim during a 15min cursory search then yeah i do take that as good enough reason to publish the claim lmao

granted, after spending some more time looking into this whole mess i wish wasn’t so hasty in publishing the ask. however, that is more because i’m having a hard time wrapping my head around my feelings regarding That blog being by kate or someone else, as well as the claims that the anon sending these messages is a vile piece of shit. i’m fairly certain she holds some weird transphobic views (specifically against trans women)

and no. “block and move on” is what i do when someone is a regular asshole. or someone outside of my circles is a nasty pos and i want to avoid to accidentally interact with them. if someone within a community i move in holds dangerous and hateful ideologies i can and will drag it to the surface. i’m not gonna sit here and be all “aw shucks, this person is racist/queerphobic/what-have-you and very active within this community, but i’m gonna block ‘em in secret and let others accidentally promote them”

i wish she would spend an hour to try and sort out this mess and clearing her name - something i truly encourage her to do if this is a baseless 4+ year smear campaign against her. like, i may or may not owe this woman the biggest apology, but she’s not giving me anything to work with and so i’m gonna choose to protect myself even if that’ll drag her name through mud unnecessarily

[alistairian]

Stating the obvious here but I think internet-era people should learn that you probably shouldn't expect that you can talk to everybody the same way you talk with friends and family.

Like the people I'm close with, for the most part, know my intentions and know my politics. I can be blunt and clunky with my words and I'm pretty confident that they know what I'm trying to communicate. I can poke fun my partner's gender or at my dad's bad english because those people know I love and support them.

If I were to make those same comments to a colleague or coworker, however, I think they would be completely justified in thinking I'm an asshole.

When someone keeps saying faggot in a derogatory way and HE doesn't know I'M gay and I don't know HE'S gay, that makes for an incredibly uncomfortable exchange where we both end up pissing each other off. If someone keeps saying retarded and I don't know that they were raised alongside a disabled sibling then I'm just going to think they're an ableist piece of shit, and I'm not going to ask for a detailed background before doing so.

Like "political correctness" isn't about someone busting down your front door and cuffing you for saying the wrong words in your own home. If anything it's about ensuring everyone's on the same page and no ones being needlessly hurt or being unintentionally advocated against, expecially in the case of public discourse in front of an audience. Someone ranting online about the dynamics at play in their friend's immigrant family can be easily read as racist, and those comments can even encourage racism, even if they're both the same race or both come from immigrant families. If that's not what you're trying to communicate you need to be able to... communicate that. Especially if you're posting online where anybody from any walk of life can interpret your words in any number of ways and won't be asking for clarification.

There's basically always been people moaning about PC culture and how they can't say anything nowadays and how people are so quick to "cancel" anyone for anything now. Like no shit if the first thing I hear someone say is some tasteless transphobic joke my entire perception of that person is that they're a transphobe! I'm not going to give that person the benefit of the doubt or expect them to provide a lengthy nuanced take of their "actual" politics and feelings before I decide if they suck or not. Now if that same person was telling the joke to their close trans friends who knew they were an ally/also queer/a big fan of satire and irony then that's a totally different story. And if those friends are still offended then they're already in a position to have a discussion about it. You can't expect that level of understanding or patience from randos on the internet or aquaintences and work buddies.

Thoughts on the Ch 1063 bullshit:

Basically this shit:

And boy is there a lot to cover here so I’m gonna divide this into some main points/issues I’ll address. Those being:

1. Thoughts/feelings on Genderswaps in general.

2. Doc Q’s disease fruit.

3. Fandom behaviour.

4. Law’s reaction.

Without further ado lets just get down to business.

1. Thoughts/feelings on Genderswaps in general.

Personally genderswaps have always made me uncomfortable. At first I believed they were inherently transphobic but perhaps I do need to reconsider that idea, depending on why a genderswap is being done, because that is the crux of my main issue with them; the intent behind them. I have yet to see a genderswap done in any media that isn’t for the sole purpose of fanservice. Be it turning a man into a sexy woman because boobs or turning women into men to create a fetishised gay relationship.

What is worse is how these gender swaps often completely change a character’s personality. The greatest offender of this is when dominating male characters are turned female and they become meeker. It’s as if people believe suddenly having a vagina makes you gentler. It does not.

We know for a fact the purpose behind this particular genderswap is for fanservice reasons. There really is no good reason for this to happen, especially with how it came to be, which is in itself fucking disgusting. Oda just wanted to draw tiddies and so he did. Just look at the pose and the way Law’s shirt hangs off him, then there is the wet shirt situation. 100% done for the ‘male gaze’.

2. Doc Q’s disease fruit.

I have no issues with the fruit itself. Being able to create diseases and infect people around you with them is a very cool and terrifying devil fruit and Doc Q is honestly the perfect user for it. Except no he fucking isn’t. Look how he’s decided to use it? Before even going into how inherently problematic it is to call turning someone female a disease, this is not an effective use of his power. Turning the Hearts female doesn’t weaken them or make it easier to take them down. He should have done a proper disease, something that would give them fevers or debilitating coughs, or fucking have horrible growths. Something actually deadly.

Hell, I would have loved to see him induce symptoms similar to Amber Lead in the crew and then watched Law have a panic attack because there is all his childhood trauma all over again. Can you really say you wouldn’t find that far more compelling than suddenly everyone has tits?

Now lets go into how disgusting this whole fucking thing is as a concept. First lets look at what Doc Q calls this disease.

The Ma-Lady Transformation Plague. You know what that tells me? It only turns males into females. How fucking horrible is that? It’s not even an equal genderswap situation. It’s specifically made to turn men into sexy women. Like, what the actual fuck!? To then have this as a disease, which is not how genetics determines ones sex at all. The only other person who can do this is Ivankov and that’s through hormone injections which is part of what sex reassignment surgery does, which makes sense. This absolutely does not. Not as a disease, not as an effective weapon, and certainly not as a reasonable choice of attack.

Just ... how are people not furious about this whole situation?

3. Fandom behaviour.

This is where I am gonna get the hate thrown at me but I truly don’t care. What I have seen in the Law tag on Tumblr has disgusted me. Everywhere I look it’s people going rabid for a Trafalgar Law with tits. It’s gross over sexualising behaviour. Already the One Piece fandom treated Law like the fandom bicycle, throwing him in ships all over the place and making him seem nothing more than a glorified dildo, which enraged me as a Law writer, but now it’s worse. Now they have precedence to feed into their bullshit.

Then we have the people using this as proof of their trans!Law headcanons. Now, let me make it clear I have no problem with different gender headcanons for Law. I fully support them, I truly do, but I do question the ethicality of a trans headcanon that is using a moment when Law’s gender is changed without his consent as proof that he is trans. Especially when I see everyone suddenly giving him female pronouns when he’s turned into a woman. Law might have boobs and a vagina now but in canon he’s still gonna use male pronouns. Honestly, considering how pissed the fandom gets when people misgender Yamato I do not get it. Isn’t this the same deal?

4. Law’s reaction.

Now let’s end this post on something kinda positive, while ignoring how gross Shachi and Penguin’s reaction to Law’s gender swap is. I can tell you I know a few Shachi and Penguin writers who are going to write that garbage out of their canon. I’m gonna do the same thing with this whole situation. Will make a post about that too.

Anyway, when I first saw this genderswap thing through a leak (which is something I really hate about manga based fan communities) I had the fear that Law would react like all genderswaps tend to do. Get meek, freak out over his new boobs, or even become a perv about it. All things I saw as wildly out of character, but he did none of those things and I am thankful for that. He was pragmatic and focused on the situation. His people were in danger and he was not going to be phased by this change, after all Trafalgar Law is just as capable whether he has a dick or a vagina. That was something I liked, seeing Law thrown into a weird situation and still being in control.

Good and appropriate characterisation. That I approve of. Still would have been better if he had to deal with an actual real and concerning disease.

TLDR: I am angry. I am offended. And so should you be. We deserved better, more compelling content as a fanbase.
