"you asexuals are always blaming trolls for your homophobia"
thats because they ARE trolls. the "doggo is an aphobic dogwhistle" post was a troll. that whole account was a troll, every single post they made. and do you really think someone would say "im aromantic and i dont like romance books" and just leave it at that? such a stock line? no greater reason why they didnt like the book just "im aromantic". as if a lot of aromantic people dont enjoy romance books. and 99% of what allos call "homophobia" is literally just us talking about our experiences and you label it homophobia because you dont understand. and you dont want to
"you just call people exclusionists instead of listening to what they have to say"
all you people ever have to say is insults. is making fun of the terms we come up with to describe ourselves. never any genuine complaints just "lol you dont want to have sex so your not REALLY queer" you literally just say that we dont belong here. you know what? i think certain ace people do have a problem with sex negativity (not to be confused with sex repulsion. not that you care). thats a genuine problem sometimes. but a lot of us are gay/lesbians ourselves so how can you just blanket call all of us homophobes?
"i dont care about the discourse"
correcting misinformation and bigotry isnt considered discourse for gay or trans people. no one has ever told me to shut up about "transfem discourse" have they? no, what you call "discourse" was actually you people participating in a deliberate hate campaign against a minority sexual orientation just because you didnt understand us, so you hated us, and now you want nothing to do with it. you refuse to even look at AVEN's faq and common misconceptions. you cant even do that.

above all else a trans woman is a person. above all else a trans women is a woman who goes to the same grocery store as you and buys fruits in the same grocery cart as you and goes home and eats her dinner the same as you. above all else a trans woman is a woman who dresses like you do and talks the same way you do. above all else a trans woman is a woman who wants to be cared about the same way you want to be cared about and a trans woman is a woman who makes friends the same way you make friends. above all else you should care about trans women because they are people. treat her as such.

i really can't overstate how fucking furious i am that corrupt egyptian officials have become millionaires from charging palestinian refugees thousands upon thousands of dollars to escape genocide and not only that, that it comes down to the generosity of normal people like you and me to fund these people, to feel guilty over not being wealthy enough to do more, to feel the pressure of choosing which fund to donate to, to have to shoulder the emotional burden of deciding which lives to save, when politicians will get absurdly rich off of insider trading and taking bribes from companies as they help engineer a worse world for all of us to endure.

Nassau County of Long Island, New York passed a mask ban bill today. Please make a habit of calling your city, county, state, and federal representatives expressing your opposition to mask bans because fascist legislative proposals like this is absolutely going to be domino effecting throughout the US. AND WEAR A MASK IN PUBLIC. WEAR A MASK TO NOT ONLY PROTECT US, BUT SUPPORT US.
Editing to add (8/14/2024): Please read the recent update.
