-a transmasc down BAD for Astarion

This actually made me smile so wide. I question myself sometimes if I make my work lean to far towards a certain gender implication. To hear this is really reaffirming. I appreciate your support even more!

“headcanoning farah as wlw is disrespectful because she’s muslim”

my. my guy. queer people exist in every group. queer muslims very much exist.

“ok but it’s a sin in islam”

WHY ARE WE SUDDENLY JUSTIFYING HOMOPHOBIA WITH RELIGION⁉️⁉️ it’s wrong for a christian to use religion to justify their bigotry, so WHY is it okay to use islam or any other religion to do the same?? i know that i’m comparing the world’s most oppressive religion (christianity) to a religion that’s oppressed, but like… allowing one group to essentially “get a pass” opens the door for EVERY group to get one.

what was even weirder is that the person who made the post about it wasn’t even muslim 😭 they said they looked it up which i believe, but then they had an actual wlw muslim in their comments telling them it wasn’t a big deal— and THEY LITERALLY TOLD THE COMMENTER THAT IT WAS STILL DISRESPECTFUL?? AND OTHER NON-MUSLIMS WERE GOING “grr but it’s a sin >:(” LIKE?? HELLO?? WHY are people not even included in the group talking over ACTUAL MEMBERS OF THE GROUP???

i care very deeply about respecting people’s beliefs and faiths. but once that belief starts to harm others, my respect is withdrawn. the golden rule is that your rights end where another person’s begin. i remember seeing posts from years ago about queer muslims. they’ve always reminded me of queer christians – the vast majority of their faiths hate them, but they do still exist. and it’s possible to be progressive while also being devoted to your faith. i’ve met so many religious folks that are allies and supportive of queer people, so seeing posts like this crop up and gain popularity is just… disheartening. it feels like we’re going backwards after finally making some progress.

#not to mention the fucking astronomical rise in purity culture #so many young people don’t even realize that they’re becoming just as rigid and bigoted #as the older folks they claim to hate and be so much better than #it’s fucking 2023. we have less than 4 months until 2024. #the fact that people– especially people MY AGE– are still using religion to justify hate is insane to me #go back 8 or so years #back when “free the nip” was on the rise and people started reclaiming slurs and celebrating pride #we were somehow more progressive then than we are now #this is such an insignificant situation in the grand scheme of things #but it provides so much insight into the thinking of this generation. #we think we’re being progressive and so respectful and kind and that we’re so much better #because SURELY respecting a religion’s beliefs is the right thing to do #unless it’s christianity. then have at it y’know #but all these people (non-muslims) are doing is justifying bigotry and hatred with the EXACT same arguments that they claim aren’t valid #“you can’t use religion to justify hate!! (unless it’s this religion lol)” #like. that’s not the take you think it is. and we’re never going to progress past these hateful beliefs if you continue to justify it #idk just. as a queer person myself who has a fem oc that i ship with farah because i love her and view her as a very progressive character #seeing people use her to justify outdated bigoted beliefs hurts so bad #her whole character revolves around empowerment. and going against traditions. and not bowing down to what other people say #using her to justify the exact behavior that she fights against just feels disrespectful to HER. #like yes– she’s very likely muslim given where she lives. but she already doesn’t follow several of the practices iirc #and again. ‼️QUEER MUSLIMS EXIST‼️ #it’s just. ugh. i’m going in circles atp #i’m going to sleep i’m too tired and migraine-y for the internet

Hey guys, I turned a new leaf (I was abused).

#The language is offensive by the way #Just so you know #To victims 👍 #To be fair I don’t want to be mean to anyone but a lot of you guys are focused more on tearing people down than building people up #It isn’t a family and I want it to be so badly because I love Lord of the Flies but the bad people make it so hard #I’m not sure but can you not focus on creating drama and stirring the pot and just… Be good? Is that so hard? #Because it’s hard to love being here when opening Tumblr in fear of what the Fandom is going to do or say next is constantly on your mind #It is a LoTF Fandom for a reason I suppose #I just wish you all could see it too because it makes people who aren’t “safe” or in that safe circle of people who are playing mean girls #Really awful all the time #I’m going to post art now and I probably won’t speak on this again but I hope you guys know now that you make it a tough place #It doesn’t need to be constant painted faces and constantly fighting each other we can just get along I don’t know why people don’t want to

[deityofhearts]

I truly hate when (usually cishet) people are like “not everything needs to be gay” and by that they mean “I don’t like that this thing has an lgbt character in it”

#deity dialogue #‘I just wish they wouldn’t force it down our throats’ and there’s just a gay character that exists in it and the plot doesn’t even revolve #around their sexuality or anything they just exist while gay in the show #like y’all have been shoving your cishet shit down our throats for forever so shut up #not everything has to be cishet either but y’all want for everything to be #y’all hate that we exist in real life and in fiction so bad and you’re bold enough to say it in a roundabout way so not to feel like a bad #person. just be upfront and say y’all hate having to acknowledge we exist in real life and in your shows/books/whatever else #I have to hear people irl comaplaim like this all the time and I’m so sick of it #people who KNOW that I’m not cishet too. they do it around several of us who they know damn well aren’t cishet #and we have to sit there quietly like :) saying nothing because we can’t

SAY IT WITH ME: EXTREMELY BAD TECH CULT 💛🥺⌚️🩸🖤

#Solid State #Solid State Webtoon #Webtoon #Just a little note I learned it’s pronounced WONDER and not like… WINDER… (idk why I thought it was that) #No matter how it’s pronounced DIAN’S CONSCIOUSNESS SHOULD GET OUT OF IT #HOW DO YOU EXPECT ME TO GO UP AGAINST THE SYSTEM WHEN YOU’VE REDUCED ME TO ONE PERSON AGAINST LIKE 500 MILLION #Jamilah going from 🥺 to 😡😡😡 in like two seconds 😂 #WEIRD PREIST MAN EVEN YOUR MOST TRUSTED LACKEY IS HAVING DOUBTS YOU NEED TO STOP #YOU KNOW HOW BAD THE CONSEQUENCES ARE DOING THAT TO THE ENTIRE WORLD WILL JUST TURN THEM AGAINST YOU #UGH FIRST WE HAVE A PHYSICAL REVOLUTION WITH ASHA AND NOW WE HAVE A DIGITAL REVOLUTION WITH WEIRD PREIST MAN #Oh hi… Dave #Thanks for the VR pods I guess #I loved the suddenness of *DONK* “WHAT..

Oooghhgjgh I can’t settle down please send some asks perhaps? 🙏

#Shima speaks #My anxiety has been through the roof like ALL day for no reason #It just spiked this morning and I’ve been on edge since #Sometimes it does this randomly like it’ll pop in and be like hey surprise!! #Deadass almost had an anxiety attack at the grocery store today. For no reason lol #And as I was driving I could FEEL myself dissociating and I went ‘Welp. That’s probably not Good’ #But actually this might have started bc of allergies #Yesterday I complained to my mom about my allergies being Terrible and she was like well if your current meds aren’t working #You can try Claritin D so I was like okay sure. So she brought in one for me this morning and I took it #And guess what a common side effect of taking this allergy medication is? #Yup you guessed it it’s heightened anxiety baby!!! #That probably just aggravated the constant state of anxiety I’m in already underneath my regular meds so. Lmao #Here we are. My heart won’t stop racing and I’m going to beat it up #ANYWAY I think that’s why it’s so bad today. Could just be one of those days where it chooses to act up for funsies #But I think it’s a side effect of the allergy medication lol #Lies down #Okay anyway sorry for talking your ears off lmao #Now come chat with me so I can talk your ears off more <3333

I think the weirdest thing about critical parts of fandom can be like: people armchair diagnosing the creators themselves when they (or hell their writing teams) write things they don’t like.

Even when I also think the work in question is bad…that’s weird man. Stop doing that.

#Fandom #fandom problems #like su’s fifth season was bad and I remember all these weird assumptions about Rebecca sugar because of it #like that’s creepy my dudes #We can all acknowledge the writing was bad without going all conspiracy theory on individual real life people #Real life people aren’t your fictional characters to break down and analyse like that

motion sickness is so stupid

#whimsy whispers #im still mad that I got carsick three times the day before yesterday #I wasn’t even doing anything either #like I’ve been more aware of how easy I get carsick lately (it varies for whatever reason) and only really listening to music which doesn’t #usually do anything to me but I was fighting for my life #the first time was bad but manageable then we walked around and did shit and I was fine then the second time I almost died #had to have them roll down the window while I was munching on mints and laying as still as one can in a car #the third time was also bearable the second time tried to kill me #I hate it like maybe I wanna be able to look at shit in the car maybe I wanna use my phone #I lowkey don’t wanna go anywhere because I’m scared I’m gonna get badly carsick again and I don’t like feeling sick #especially cause we don’t have any medicine for it #we should really get some cause kane and I both get carsick #so does lex (hers isn’t motion sickness so much as it is pressure) #sometimes it’s three of us in the same car all dying while everyone else is fine #usually the solution (best possible solution at least) is the have an even number of windows rolled down while we all sit silently and still #anyways hi I need to get some medicine the mints I’ve been hoarding aren’t cutting it

[theriverdalereviewer]

surely one of you has read nineteen minutes by jodi picoult... as usual I have THOUGHTS

#the lesson of this book has not aged well #now let me break it down quickly #but major tw if you ever consider reading nineteen minutes its a book with two teenage protagonists but it was written for a mature audience #the book deals with bullying gun violence and abuse and it does depict them quite graphically #so yeah I absolutely would not pick up this book if youre sensitive to that #but anyways the story is about a shooting that happens at a high school and then takes you back to the events that led up to it #as well as the aftermath #and I feel like the idea of Peter's has aged quite poorly #like the book was written in 2007 so the narrative that shooters are the bullied lonely kids who are getting revenge #was very popular in our society but in the year 2023 I think we are (very) slowly realizing that these kids weren’t unpopular nerds #majority of them are incels living in a country that makes it very easy for them to kill people with guns #and the book reallyyyyy misses this mark #like they portray Peter as this kid that was bullied for being sensitive and not a masculine tough guy like the rest of the boys #and its true boys who get bullied generally are bullied for not conforming to masculinity #BUTTT these boys aren’t the ones who go and kill people #its the ones who have deeply entrenched hatred for women and minorities and also happen to be able to use weapons #so yeah if the text was just about a kid who was being bullied and how traumatizing that is then yeah I think it would’ve nailed it #butttt when you try to convince us that this is the profile of a shooter you start to lose #also not nearly enough about gun control was discussed #like the book sends the message that if we’re all nice to each other bad things won’t happen ummmm yeah #but also even if we were all mean to each other we could minimize the amount of casualties by have stricter access to guns #like what people in other countries don’t have mean kids this is a uniquely american problem #anyways these are my grievances

also like my school literally doesn’t report covid cases on campus for like almost 2 weeks. they haven’t updated the dashboard since May 12 and in that time SO many ppl i know on campus have gotten it. so im sure cases are very high and i do not fucking trust then to keep us all safe. they don’t fucking care <- is applying to work for them full time 💀 but still

#purrs #this person who graduated from here in December and is disabled became a covid activist and started this whole organization about keeping c #campuses covid safe and im just crying looking at what they did because of how horribly they were treated and how i fucking backed down when #they were like we already are doing the maximum we can do ♥️ like no you FUCKING aren’t. you are denying reality. you are pretending like #covid is over and it isn’t. and im not even disabled or immunocompromised like there are students who are who won’t be able to go to this an #and it doesn’t even matter because no one wants to wear masks anymore ♥️ like how fucking stupid can you be. not everyone is onay with mask #mandates being removed. not everyone can SURVIVE if mask mandates are removed. so why can’t everyone just endure a temporary inconvenience s #so EVERYONE who worked hard for this can attend and not have to worry about risking their lives and their families lives. its fucking #horrific. like does NOBODY care anymore. are we just giving up completely. fuck them andfuck all the people who are making it hard to access #care and actively denying people who want or NEED stricter guidelines an opportunity to go. this fucking sucks and i feel so bad for that pe #person bc they got ruthlessly mocked on Twitter and had to go thru all this legal bullshit with the admin and they did NOTHI NG and it’s lik #like i don’t even know you h it good for you for taking how painful that was and trying to help people navigate it. and i don’t know what to #do with any of this except not go but also im in pain and not thinking clearly but this is fucking nightmarish. like you want to talk #draconian how about the choices being miss your graduation or get a disease that could lead to chronic illness and death. lol #ask to tag

Omg when someone talks about video games with you on Yik yak ❤️

#none of my friends play video games it’s like a fucking nunnery over here #WHO am I supposed to ramble about Pokémon to!!!! #diary post #it’s so nice to be able to say stuff about video games without first being like ‘okay this is the 5th installment of x here’s the plot’ #instead we can jump right into opinions and thoughts and ideas etc etc etc #I fucking love video games. it’s an art form that should be admired but shitty games give it a bad rap #and yes that includes cod and whatever but also those shitty indie games that aren’t actually games) #I love Pokémon I love Mario I love Zelda I love solitaire I love animal crossing I love night in the woods #I love Minecraft I love hollow knight I love Celeste #yik yaks not all bad. yea it’s full of annoying freshmen but sometimes you can have real conversations on there #it’s mostly bad though lol #okay goodnight. have to be up at 6;50 tomorrow and I have 4 fucking things to do tomorrow #BUT I have derby practice so it’s all gonna be okay. I think it’s footwork and whatnot so no contact but oh well #and I’ll try to coordinate carpools down to the city for other team’s practice #I’m gonna be back on skates and everything’s going to be okay ❤️❤️
