And I Know People Mean Well When They Give Employment Advice But God Damn Some Of Them Its Like "did

Wrestling in the mud with cPTSD anger so it doesn't click post while autism snipes us with the garden hose and ADHD films for worldstar

Me and my cousin have an ongoing bit where we pretend we made "slightly better" versions of things where we'll be like.

"That was a pretty good movie, but not as good as my movie, House of 1001 Corpses," or "I guess this song is okay. Kind of reminds me of a song I'm working on called 'Faster Car'."

Never once has it been funny or made anyone but us laugh.

redditors will be like "i have le cursed internet knowledge" and that knowledge is like. being vaguely aware of what furries are and making a big production out of gawking and going "errm wgat the heck is this weird crap"

She got me into plants FUCK plants how dare you die I spent so much time and effort on you. Over here germinating pepper seeds yelling "PUUUUSH PUUUUUUUUUUSH BREAK YOURSELF TO BECOME SOMETHING MORE" because I know coming out of your shell is hard. While the spearmint is fine after all the adversity it went through. Then I look at the rosemary wrong and it dies. I didn't even notice the peppermint flower in time so fuck it I won't harvest it, the little flowers are cute. And the basil? Oh the fucking basil. What variety? Dickhead variety, asshole variety. It knows what it did.

'you are not immune to propaganda' is true but sometimes the way people deploy this particular soundbite reveals a complete unwillingness to attribute any agency or ideology to people who espouse some pretty heinous bigotry.

like there was a post going around recently talking about people whose parents became increasingly radicalized by fox news and it had one of those tumblr style comments on it along the lines of "REMEMBER! THIS COULD BE YOU! You are not immune to propaganda either. STAY VIGILANT" and the implication here is always that right wing radicalization is something that somehow happens to otherwise pleasant people without their consent or knowledge. But perhaps some of you guys just need to grapple with the fact that your parents might be more bigoted and reactionary than you want to believe.

nobody is immune to bad information ecosystems or groupthink or poor science or anything else that makes radicalization possible, but i do think the idea that anyone is just a bad news pipeline away from supporting white supremacy does a lot to let white supremacists off the hook. it's the same kind of line of thought that gets people to talk about how bad things in fiction shouldn't be 'romanticized'. its a kind of worldview that operates under the implicit belief that a human being is a vessel being uncritically filled with whatever you pour into it and does nothing to grapple with what the actual appeal of these far right talking points is to the sort of otherwise ""normal"" seeming people that can be sold on them.

Discussion Shorthand TMDP/TWDP

I dislike using the words male and female to refer to sex traits because it misgenders trans people with those sex traits. And I also just don't believe in "biological sexes" to begin with.

TMDP (Typical Mullarian Developmental Pathway)- referring to typical/perisex development of characteristics such as breasts, vulva, uterus, ovaries, etc.

Examples of people with TMDP

(perisex) cis women

(perisex) trans men

some (perisex) nonbinary people.

TWDP (Typical Wolffian Developmental Pathway)- referring to typical/perisex development of characteristics such as facial hair, penis, scrotum, testicles, prostate, etc.

Examples of people with TWDP

(perisex) cis men

(perisex) trans women

some (perisex) nonbinary people.

What if someone has neither TWDP or TMDP traits? They are intersex.

This exists for the purpose of talking about anatomy/medical needs as well as for the purpose of explaining how intersex variations differ from perisex sex traits without using the words male/female, as just using those terms further reinforces the coupling of gender and sex traits. I believe all sex traits should be completely decoupled from gender.

No one is left. We are all going to die. They killed his parents, his wife, his children, his siblings... (and they will kill him). This is the reality of every Palestinian. Time is up. Protest. Say no to racism. Don't just watch — you can make a difference. To the world: You are not powerless.

To Tumblr users, to the trans community, to designers — all of you: Take to the streets and protest. Boycott companies supporting the aggression. Share the truth; do not stay silent.

Donate to trusted organizations that support the Palestinian people. Stand for justice and humanity.

You are watching, and someone else is watching at the same time. Join us.
