i once had an anti tell me to stop sexualizing their trauma on a story i wrote that was a word for word retelling of my own actual trauma but with names changed and its been 2 years and i still cant stop thinking about that
Ah, yeah... Unfortunately a non-insignificant number of antishippers seem to genuinely believe they own the concept of trauma, so any story they read that they believe to be portrayed in a romanticized or sexualized light therefore must be romanticizing/sexualizing their trauma specifically.
I couldn't tell you the amount of times I've gotten the "stop sexualizing my trauma!!!!!!" or adjacent comments from antishippers that universally garner a response that basically boils down to
Like, bitch! I'm talking about my trauma! I literally did not even know you existed until you fucking commented!

kills me inside every time people accuse tubbo of being a tory despite the fact he never was
he has had shitty opinions but he wanst a tory
a tory is someone who supports the conservative party in the UK. Some people who don't know what it means decide to use it as just a bigot. Tories are bigots but not all bigots are tories
IN GENERAL a political party will have ideas regarding social stuff, economic stuff, foreign policy and more. You cant just randomly give someone a label based on their social opinions isnce htere are countless political movements with overlapping ideals
like if people want to (justifyingly) criticize some shit hes said in the past at least use correct terms and quote it properly

I’m really not over the way that MASH nails on the head the tension between what is technically a terrible and severely limiting situation and place, and the odd freedoms a place like this affords to people. They way these people might never have been friends (family) by geography or interests or ideals outside of here, but now belong together, and the way individual idiosyncrasies afford one another the space to exist as a version of oneself who would get stifled/locked up/attacked/exiled/censored/judged in what one might consider “society”
yeah, that’s... literally what happened -- and happens -- over and over

Is it weird that I prefer to go by gender neutral pronouns online but go by she/her in real life?
You owe nobody online "accurate" information about yourself - if you're comfortable with they/them or whatever other set it may be because of privacy or because you like that pronoun set, and it isn't anybody's "right" to know.
Basically, do what makes you comfortable. It isn't weird at all to exist in different spaces differently. We are all, to some extent, presenting ourselves in different ways depending on the context, how comfortable we are, what we do/don't want to conform to, and so many other factors.

anyone else get skeeved out by the wording people use 'you can choose any identity you want!' when talking about reflecting on your gender identity?
It's like.... I didn't choose to be a man tho... I just am.
I didn't choose to be bi. I just am.
I've been this way for as long as I can remember regardless of how long it took me to find the language to properly express it.
There is no choice. Making it seem like a choice leaves such a bad taste in my mouth.
