what joke are you really tryin to tell when you make fun of appalachia and the greater south?
even when you "just" mock our accents (you and i both know what you're really implying when you take on the drawl), the punchline of your joke there is poverty.
those who prefer a more overt route over backhanded implication: when you laugh at our education, or lack thereof, the punchline of your joke is still poverty. systemically underfunded schools packed with underprivileged children who aren't getting the same standards of education as the rest of the country is a real knee slapper boy i tell you what
when you mock our dental health and start quipping about toothless hillbillies, you're still laughin at poverty. appalachia is disproportionately uninsured compared to the rest of the nation. fellas most of us can't afford the privilege of regular, preventative dental visits and checkups, let alone the cost of huge procedures when things finally get dire. beyond that, our poverty is generational. from the get go we inherit bad teeth from family who couldn't afford that shit neither.
in the same vein, when you make fatphobic comments about said disproportionately-uninsured region--one with few jobs available to begin with, let alone work that pays enough to afford wholesome, unprocessed foods that don't rot yer teeth for supper--the butt of your joke is,, u guessed it,, ✨ poverty ✨
but to me the real kicker is the cousin fucker jokes. how can you not see that when you snark about inbreeding, when you piss yourself over that infamous billboard and oh, how could anyone possibly need to be told that?!, your punchline is not only poverty and a lack of education enough to develop critical thinking skills and the ability to build safe support networks, but you're also usually guffawing at incestuous rape and vulnerable children on top of it. peak comedy.
really though, how is any of that funny?
what happens to everyone's class consciousness the moment we start talkin about the hollers n the deep south?
why does health insurance, quality education, and food security for all suddenly go from issues worth fighting for to punishments, and ones we deserve to be humiliated for on top of it?
i know im just a dumb ol hillbilly n all, but i reckon i just don't get what we're supposed to be laughin at here

I'm begging other trans people to read an ounce of Black Feminist or Decolonialist Feminist writing. I'm on my hands and knees and begging you. I promise you, I promise you, there is so much more to Feminist theory than anything you have picked up from White/Radical/Pop/Liberal Feminism I promise you. Read There Is No Hierarchy Of Oppressions By Audre Lorde. I have a link to the PDF right here you can read it for free. Take my hand I can't do this alone (thanks glass beach). Peace And Love On Planet Earth.

you need to get it out of your mind that psychosomatic illness is just “making up symptoms” when it’s actually much more like your body is being actively poisoned by chemicals released from your brain

“we need to see castiel again.” this statement we can’t possibly refute. “misha collins should be employed.” no i don’t think that’s true.

HELP A DISABLED TRANS WOMAN ESCAPE FLORIDA
BEFORE IT GETS ANY WORSE
Florida recently passed horrific anti trans laws including felony charges for using the "incorrect" bathroom, and getting your gender marker changed counts as "identity fraud". Also, HRT meds are no longer eligible for refills. With trump AND desantis in Florida, and this being an election year, it's looking like the political environment is about to become even more hostile. Like most trans people are feeling now, it seems like the closest is the safest place to be.
In order to relocate to a new home in a different state (one that welcomes trans people), I'm accepting donations starting now to raise funds for moving. Estimated $2000 cost to move essential, irreplaceable items, and also includes flight ticket fees and miscellaneous other things.
I'm setting the deadline at Sept 1st, before the election starts becoming a thing, and also before the weather turns too cold for heavy lifting during unpacking.
Any amount is hugely appreciated. Reblogging for visibility would also be a huge help. I'll queue this post to reblog itself regularly, and provide updates with reblogs in my pinned post. Thank you so very much. Never forget the love and strength that each of us are capable of. We belong in this world.
