points to a sign that says “sometimes two people from the same marginalized community will want/need two very different things from their representation in fiction and they should both be allowed to find and make that representation to suit their own needs and neither should be criticized for not making the representation that the other wants”
like, for example, if one trans person is dealing with hostility from their family and their own internalized transphobia and they’re comforted by seeing a trans character face those same things, then that’s fine and they should be allowed to. if another trans person finds those kinds of stories bleak and disheartening and would prefer to see a trans character with caring loved ones and who takes pride in their identity, then that’s also fine and they should be allowed to. neither of them is doing the other any harm by looking for or making the content they personally want to see.
this has got to be the most pathetic ad I’ve ever seen
I love how it states “completely free for women” because just like the crypto dating site that failed, it’s probably a complete right-wing sausage fest.
as a man on HRT thats approaching his thirties im on my knees begging you other trans and queer folk to stop treating hair thinning and baldness like its some sort of final nail in the coffin on someone’s youth and scale of attractiveness and to stop insisting people see their doctor if someone starts experiencing hair loss and they didnt ask for help!
Like to be extremely honest, the way that some people treat balding like you’re suddenly losing your identity or something… as someone that has experimented with my hair since my tweens, with funky haircuts and crazy hair colors, it just shows a real lack of creativity to treat the potential of baldness as something to mourn is really boring and concerning.
Think of all the new real estate for potential tattoos. Think of all the wigs you can much more comfortably wear, either for cosplay or for everyday use. Want to have short punk hair one day or long, flowy hair the next? Thats possible. But also, think of all the cool hats you can adorn your head with to look like the coolest hipster dilf in your neighborhood. Think of all the crazy cool earrings you can try on with a smooth head to bring contrast. Think about how cool and esteemed or tough and rugged you’ll look for those that are able to grow a nice mustache or beard. Think of the curious joy you can bring to young kids or babies that have never felt a smooth or stubbly head before.
Idk. I just think the queer community in general has a huge problem with glorifying youth and thick-scalped sexy “tasteful” androgyny, when that androgyny and sexiness can take so many different forms beyond 22 yo twunks and soft butches. You arent going to be young forever, we’re all going to get wrinkly and die one day, so you better come to terms with greying and balding queer dilfs and milfs quickly.
i need people to stop posting about five nights at freddy’s until after scott cawthon dies and we can confirm that his family isn’t continuing his legacy of being a bigoted conservative coward dumping his viral indie hit money into political campaigns for politicians who want me and my friends dead
the thing about him no longer working on the fnaf games is that it doesn’t matter, he’s co-writing the movie and has been publishing fnaf-based novels. it’s harry potter all over again, except instead of making headlines with his bigoted views he was smart enough to shut up so his franchise would keep printing money unimpeded.
retiring from game development was a ploy to get the heat off of him whilst protecting his IP’s profitable nature and it worked. he suffered no real consequences; meanwhile he still profits from the series’ popularity. i don’t want to hear about fnaf anymore, especially not from people on here who are at great risk of harm resulting from the PACs and candidates he supports.
social media sites should let you add custom buttons on your profile. like maybe you get max 3 buttons and they can have whatever text you want. and each button has its own persistent counter for how many times it’s been clicked. here’s some concept art
The person who made cookie clicker thinks we should all have buttons that you click and the numbers go up? You don’t say.
It’s wild when you’re disabled and have adapted your entire life to be able to function even a little bit and people will still think you’ve “given up” or “let the illnesses win” because you allow yourself to rest. Grind mindset is garbage.
i think what annoys me about how fandom treats women is that we constantly cycle through "tropes" of women, like how people will talk about girlboss women rn, but they never follow up with anything. Its always omg girlboss omg step on me but no depth. no care into talking about them and their narrative like there are with male characters. They just repeat this trope acting like its good enough and then going back to their male characters
