with the election, ive had far too many of my trans friends joke that if donald trump wins theyre gonna off themselves, and after awhile its gotten into a weird, half serious territory which i cant blame anyone for. it feels really bleak. but in the case that donald trump does win this election i think its important to say, we need you alive.
the best thing you can do in the face of a government who wants you dead is to live.
a large part of people who are heinously transphobic dont know a single trans person. i think i pretty good example of this is chaya raichik, who admitted in an interview that she never knew a trans person. its super easy to believe in the strawman of trans people when you dont know anyone who is trans. people who were previously transphobic say that just knowing a trans person, and realizing that we are just regular people, living our lives is what changed their minds.
i will say that you dont have to be around transphobes and it is not your job to change their minds, but please for the love of god, stay alive. we need you alive.
No requests
having sex with your friends is so very normal please stop poisoning the youths minds with shame surrounding hooking up with your friends. especially if you’re gay
honestly missionaries are evil. the idea of traveling the world to tell people Who Didnt Fucking Ask that their beliefs are wrong in the hopes that theyll adopt your beliefs seems sinister
You guys are probably gonna hate me but I need to talk about this thing I’ve been seeing on my timeline with people being like “you’re sexualizing Ellie” and hating on porn with no plot.
LESBIANS ARE HORNY.
Women are sexual creatures and it shouldn’t be jaw droppingly surprising to anybody that there’s a video game character that people find very sexually attractive. I understand some people really like softer fics with plot or some people really only like fluff. And that is perfectly fine. However, it shouldn’t be an issue that there are others who wanna eat her off the bone. Most people who consume sexual tlou content also consume content that pertains to the characters themselves, their development, and their lives. Were in in this fandom for a reason. There’s no lack of posts commenting on the show and how genius it is. And there’s no lack of fanfics that are fluffy and rich in plot.
i mean i guess everyone who was bitching about harris for not being "inspiring enough" or for not being "hard enough on the border" gets their fucking wish
Do you think Grrm hates Rhaenyra? I keep seeing this ever since he wrote that post.
See I don't think GRRM hates any of his characters, but especially not Rhaenyra. I can understand how people can interpret it that way to an extent, but it's very obvious he doesn't hate her.
In F&B, GRRM purposely writes it from the perspective of biased men, so of course Rhaenyra is portrayed badly. She's written by Munkin, Eustace, and Mushroom to be a negative example of women in power.
However, GRRM's MO has pretty much always been tackling medieval stereotypes and prejudices. Xenophobia, hatred of bastards, ableism, and sexism are all prevalent themes in ASOIAF. However, just because these themes are portrayed doesn't mean GRRM shares these views; in fact he uses ASOIAF to point out how destructive and wrong those ideas are.
Rhaenyra's story was written to show the destructive nature of the patriarchy. She as a character is meant to be morally gray and hated by historians. She's reflective of how history views ruling queens; she's demonized, wrongfully blamed, and disregarded.
The way readers are introduced to Rhaenyra is through people who hate her for being a woman who fought for her birthright. The way GRRM wrote his latest post about her is still from that perspective. People who claim he hates her are people who are unable to separate his actual views from those of his characters.
I don’t know how we’re letting trump get away with all this shit when I truly believe that if you threw a blanket over his head he would think it was nighttime and go to sleep like a bird

Machismo is such a fucking poison.
And, I know, I know people are going to try blame white women on the elections tonight but so many men of color have been leaning more to the right and they should be lambasted so much more.
