We are bisexual. We are beautiful. We are strong. We are here. We are not confused. We are not greedy. We are not experimenting. We are not going through a phase. We are bisexual. We are attracted to people of all genders. We may be attracted to men, women, transgender people, non-binary people, and anyone else in between. Our attractions are fluid and can change over time. We are proud of our bisexuality. We will not be erased. We will not be silenced. We will not be discriminated against. We demand equal rights and representation. We demand to be seen and heard. We demand to be treated with respect. We are bisexual. We are here. We are not going away. Bisexual people can be attracted to people of any gender, including men, women, transgender people, non-binary people, and anyone else in between. Bisexual people's attractions can be fluid and can change over time. For example, someone might be attracted to mostly men one year and mostly women the next. Bisexual people can be in monogamous or polyamorous relationships. Bisexual people can be cisgender or transgender. Bisexual people can be of any race, ethnicity, or religion. Bisexual people can be of any age, socioeconomic status, or educational level. Bisexual people are just as diverse as any other population group. We come from all walks of life and have a wide range of experiences. What unites us is our attraction to people of all genders. The bisexual manifesto is a declaration of our existence, our pride, and our demands for equal rights and representation. We are here, we are not going away, and we will not be silenced. We demand to be seen and heard. We demand to be treated with respect. We demand equal rights. We are bisexual. We are beautiful. We are strong. We are here.

Zanele Muholi

Zanele Muholi is a visual activist, humanitarian and art practitioner who focuses on the documentation and celebration of the lives of South Africa’s Black lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer and intersex communities.

Beginning in 2006, Muholi responded to the continuing discrimination and violence faced by the LGBTI community by photographing Black lesbian and transgender individuals, resulting in the ongoing portrait project, Faces and Phases. Their self-proclaimed mission is “to re-write a Black queer and trans visual history of South Africa for the world to know of our resistance and existence at the height of hate crimes in SA and beyond”.

So I know they keep calling Loki the god of mischief but the whole arc of the show is all about him being the god of chaos.

Like the show in S1 starts out with him talking about his attempts at ruling as a desperate attempt at control (because his life feels chaotic and out of control). His little smile when everyone is screaming and running around isn’t because he enjoys hurting people, it’s because of the chaos. A little chaos is fun, it’s his thing - but Loki is surrounded by it constantly and he knows it can be damaging. Chaos is neither purely good nor purely bad. Everything Loki does is whatever causes the maximum amount of chaos at any given time. Of course there are tons of Loki variants and they can’t agree on anything. Of course Loki is gender-fluid and bisexual. Of course Loki gets drunk and starts a bar fight during the apocalypse. (Calling Loki hedonistic in the same episode that he comes out as bi always irked me - in addition to the biphobia, I think the real reason he messed up the plan is because that was the most chaotic thing Loki could do in that moment.) This principle of maximum chaos continues throughout the series - Loki and Sylvie’s romance causing a nexus event, all of the wacky variants at the end of the universe, Loki time slipping out of control so even the order of time is thrown into chaos. Even visually in the way the scenes are shot, you can watch the chaos literally following Loki around - it’s especially clear in the TVA where everything is otherwise so ordered.

Loki’s role as the god of chaos is also why he is the one to protect free will and save all the timelines. What’s more chaotic than an infinitely branching multiverse? It’s such a beautiful character arc, but it’s also why Loki turns out to be so fucking powerful. Chaos is central to physics - it is a fundamental part of what makes the universe run. Thunder and lightning are loud and flashy but without chaos the universe literally can’t exist in its current form. When Loki figures out the crucial role of chaos in the multiverse he is able to become the god he needs to be and be the ultimate complex hero we all deserve.

*Chef’s kiss*

#Loki #Loki spoilers #loki season 2 #glorious purpose #Loki series #Loki finale #spoilers #chaos #I have a lot of feelings about this show #also as a bisexual activist destabilizing binaries and order as a form of heroism is so important actually

What trans women, feminists and Jews all have in common.

A/N: I originally wrote this as a response to a reblog, but then I realised it's perhaps the most important post I've ever written, and I know it's very long, but I hope that you, whoever you are, will read it. That's why I wanted to give it a voice of its own, shortening it a tad. This post discusses, in a kind, friendly and polite manner the whole fight between trans and feminists, the debate about Hogwarts Legacy and the problems of anti-semitism and transphobia. And it does so lovingly, and without an aim to brainwash, hurt or offend. So please, if you have ten minutes, please do read. Whoever you are. Thank you.

----

1. FIRST LET ME TELL YOU WHO I AM, SO THAT YOU KNOW THE KIND OF PERSON YOU'RE READING FROM.

I am very much sick of the fights between people who at the bottom, all just want to feel safe, and I am very much sick of the lack of actual polite conversation between us. I come from a Jewish background, from Sephardic Jews (meaning ethnically Jews, which makes me ethnically a Jew both in my maternal and paternal lines), but I also come from a city that has historically been Roman, Iberian, Catholic, Jewish, Muslim, Arabs, Visigoth, Phoenician, Tarshish and many more, which means I am aware that I am only alive because my ancestors mixed with people very different from them, and repeatedly survived persecution because their religion and/or civilization wasn't the "right one" to stay alive in depending on the historical time. My Jewish ancestors were likely prosecuted to such an extent, and not even that long ago, but during World War II, that they hid and pretended to be Catholics and kept quiet to save their lives. And then there's the fact that I'm bisexual, and whenever I've been in a same sex relationship (one of which lasted me several years) I had to hide, keep it quiet, and keep it a tight-lipped secret because I knew even on this day and age a lot of my loved-ones wouldn't understand, not because they're right-wingers (which they're not), but for other reasons. And I'm saying all of this because I want it to be understood that I know what it is like to be persecuted because of who you are and to never feel entirely safe. I never even felt I could hold my girlfriend's hand in public without receiving some kind of backlash. I never even dared to go into a LGBT march without wearing something to conceal my identity. And on top of things, I'm a woman, and I've never, ever in the decades I've been in this world, in no city I've ever visited, felt safe to be alone out in the street at night. I know I'm talking a lot, and I'm sorry, and I know you'all just want to shout terf, antisemitic and transphobe at me and stop reading, but I beg you to keep reading, even if it's long, because I'm hopeful that we can finally reach some kind of understanding.

Let's forget what divides us. What unites us is that we all feel unsafe. We all, women, gays, trans people, POC people, Jews, we all feel like just because there's something about us that we can't change, we're more likely to die than anyone else. To be raped, beaten-up, abducted and taken from the face of the Earth, just because of who we are.

So what I'm saying is, you're afraid? I understand. So am I. Too afraid to walk alone at night, too afraid to date anyone who isn't a friend of a friend (therefore pre-approved), too afraid to go around in my real life outside the internet telling people how multi-ethnicity I am, simply afraid. All of the time.

I am a fairly cultured person. I'm not the kind of person who simply goes online, believes whatever without evidence, and on and on. I am the kind of person with several higher education certificates, with studies both locally and abroad, the world-traveller, the ferocious reader, the one who reads all the news every day (Spanish, English and French) in several newspapers both right wing and left wing so that in the end I have all sides of the story, I come from a well-educated and very humble family, and I am not someone who blindly decided to support J. K. Rowling. I was horrified when I read the first people saying she was transphobic. But hey, I'm the kind of person who, if I disagree with someone, I read them to bits, because I want to know exactly what they think and why, and why I think differently, and I know that's not something a lot of the people you read do. And I'm in the arts, so half my friends are gay, another are trans, and a very small minority are straight and cisgender, so I promise you, that if I had any sincere belief that Rowling went against any minority, I would've been ferociously against her. I would've. And with that aim I set out to read her every tweet, and you know what I found?

She never actually says anything wrong about transgender people. Never. In fact she doesn't speak against them, she speaks in favour and defense of women and against sexist, violent men. Not against trans people. And I had this conversation with my transgender friends, asking them why they'd gotten offended exactly, and when they looked at Rowling's tweets, you know what they told me? That that wasn't what they'd been told she'd said. Because like many of you, they'd read some rumour in social media, some article in the press, and got so angry they never bothered to actually read what she'd really said, in their context (meaning, following the Twitter conversations and everything, not isolated tweets either). But when I showed them? They were baffled. And they understood she wasn't transphobic. It's been years, and I still don't have a friend who does not stand with J. K. Rowling. And that, listen, that includes Jews, trans, gays, lesbians, and so on, because like I said, I work in the Arts, which as you know is one of the most diverse collectives. And another thing that I noticed was how much had been lost in translation. English is not my first language, but as you can see I mostly manage all right. But when I read translations into Spanish and French, they missed so much about what Rowling had really said, and twisted so much. So let me give you a brief summary of what she actually believes:

2. LET'S DELVE DEEP INTO ROWLING'S ACTUAL WORDS.

Sex is real. If you're born with female or male sex that cannot change. We know this to be scientifically and medically true, which is why when you have surgery to transition, for which a friend of mine is preparing right now, you need to have lots of hormonal medications to try and keep your body behaving as the gender you identify with and against your sex, and the minute you stop, your body will naturally begin behaving like your sex again. And this doesn't change even if you have surgeries, this is for life. If you don't believe me, simply check medical websites, I promise you this is true.

It is dangerous to have transgender women who have not undergone a physical transition in the same private spaces as women. I know this point is very contentious, but before you get angry, hear me out. This is not because anyone thinks transgender people are dangerous. This is because men have proven to be dangerous. What's more common, for a man to rape a woman, or for a woman to rape a man? how often do you hear of women who were murdered by their male exes or even partners, or relatives? I mean, I've gone to several of those funerals and vigils for women and girls killed like that. So the idea behind not wanting trans women and women to share spaces where trans women might have it easier to rape women is that perhaps those trans women, if they haven't physically transitioned, still have the physical advantages of the male sex: more strength, bigger body, and a penis. Imagine my shock if I was getting naked in my prison cell and then I found a person physically stronger and bigger than me, with a dick, naked next to me, in a perfect opportunity to rape me. Would I call them a trans woman? No. But they would call themselves that, and use it to get into that space. That's why Scotland had to backpedal in their laws allowing people to identify themselves as trans women and go into female prisons, because they had several cases in which this resulted in women being raped by trans women, or by people who claimed to be. Because as we all know. plenty of men who are sexual predators will identify as women not just to have access to women, but to have access to transgender women as well, and rape them, and kill them. So it appears that in order to keep trans women and women safe from male predators, we need to make sure that no one with biological advantages of men can share private spaces with them. And if this means having a separate prison for people with the physical built, strength and sexual organs of men, so that they cannot predate on anyone, I vote we do it.

Women won't wheesht. This refers to the fact that achieving rights for someone shouldn't mean removing them for someone else. So in order to give transgender people rights, we cannot take them from another collective, in this case, women. If women are shouting they're terrified of being raped and killed, we need to listen. It is a disrespect, a sexist, female-erasing, cruel thing to do, to ignore them and force them to accept sharing spaces they don't want to share with anyone else. And the only thing that imposing transgender women in their spaces is going to cause is what's happening now: violence, harassment, and an imposibility to have peaceful conversations, not to mention an immediate dislike and fear of transgender women. So instead of achieving transgender rights by harassing someone else, we need to give them their own things. For example, say you have a sibling and you want their room, right? well, harassing them into letting them share it is not going to work. You'll never again get along with your sibling. But asking your parents to build you your own bedroom will keep both sides happy. That's what Rowling and people like me believe in. That fine, if you don't feel safe sharing spaces with people with a dick because you don't want to be raped and murdered, hey, neither do we. So why don't we respect each other's fears and safety wishes and each have our own spaces? And then we can all feel safe around people exactly like us.

Transgender CHILDREN shouldn't be able to go through life changing, irreversible surgeries to remove their sexual organs without plenty of check-ups with doctors and psychiatrists or psychologists who can make sure the child fully understands the risks. This is due to the avalanche of feedback we have from detransitioners who spoke up about having been brainwashed, having given "informed" consent that wasn't actually very well informed, and having deeply regretted surgeries they did without really knowing what was going to happen, and that have now caused them chronic pain that cannot be cured and irreversible physical, mental and emotional damage.

That's all Rowling has said. Nothing against transgender people. She's only worried about the safety of children and women. Period. And I can tell you that with my hand on my heart because I have read her every tweet, and I have also read her open letter against cancel culture, and plenty of articles on the matter.

3. LET'S TALK ABOUT JEWS.

Now about the Jewish thing. Rowling is NOT an anti-Semitic. The first person who called her anti-Semitic was a Jewish man called Jon Stewart, who did so jokingly, and who was immediatelly appalled by the harassment Rowling received from people that took him seriously, forcing not just him, but also multiple Jewish celebrities, Jewish organisations and Jewish charities, to speak up in support of J. K. Rowling and publicly state that they don't believe she's anti-Semitic.

I bet you've only been reading from people who think like you. Many of you, the second you've heard something you didn't like, shut the other person out, called them insults and names, labelled them as Terfs, transphones and anti-Semites, and refused to listen. And if you never hear the people you disagree with, you're never going to hear anything but validity, even if your ideas are insane. Like the flat-Earthers. And all you've been reading from Rowling have been things taken out of context, or told to you by someone else. Do your people ever encourage you to read extract from the source? no. Do they ever show you receipts? only if they've been carefully trimmed.

But people have agendas, you know? That's what happened with Nazism. So you get a collective of Trans Radical Activists, radicals who might not even be actually trans, but know that if they fight women, people like Rowling, and put enough pressure in the governments, they can make laws change so that men, not trans women, but men pretending to be trans women, have easy access to rape women and trans women. Think about it. Wouldn't it be incredibly smart for alt-right men to infiltrate the Transgender activism to start violent fights against women, calling them cunts, telling them to kill themselves, and telling them to suck dick, making women the bad guys, convincing trans people that women are out to get them and to kill them, and getting lawmakers to make laws that allow anyone to simply say they're women and go into female prisons or lockers? Hold on. That's exactly what's happened. I don't believe for a second that the TRAs are all transgender. I believe many of them are alt-right men. And you'll identify them easily by their sexist, violent behaviour and speech, and their whole discourse against women and claims that women like Rowling actively threaten trans people's rights, when none of it is true.

So now say the TRAs, who want women to have less rights and men to have more, and who want to easily be able, as men, to infiltrate spaces that were previously private to women, so that they can no longer have their own spaces, find something else that gets people furious towards their enemy. Rowling has stood against alt-right men her whole life. Naturally, when they saw someone call her anti-Semite, they jumped into that waggon. Another opportunity to get someone cancelled. To demonise a defender of women, until there's none left. So that's what they did. They called her anti-Semite, came up with the whole BS about the goblins, made lots of things up, took more stuff out of context. And because they were in the trans collective, aka, "the good guys", the perceived victims, people have been far more inclined to believe them, to listen to them, and to be compassionate to them. But let me tell you, if these men are allowed into female spaces, and actual trans women find themselves in those spaces with them, they'll be in as much danger as any other woman, if not more.

Now you probably think we're crazy and paranoid. Question. Is the transgender collective telling you that? and if so, isn't it a little suspicious that someone wants to convince you that someone else is being paranoid? that they're out to get you? Because that's what they're doing. Me? Rowling didn't convince me. Nobody had to. I just had to read the news, like I told you I do all the time, and see all of this coming true. See women being repeatedly harassed, sexually and physically, threatened, often by men, far-right men who are strangely, suddenly, very interested in trans rights (isn't that also suspicious?), and seeing all the news and personal stories around me of women being raped because a man was allowed to identify as a trans woman and put into their space, where they had freedom to rape and murder. This is out in the news. The real news. And it's happening all over the place, which tells you I'm not being paranoid or dellusional, I'm telling you what's going on.

This is how Nazism worked as well. It started with Nazis who wanted a kind of economical power that at the time was in the hands of Jews. Do you remember when people tell you immigrants take jobs! women are transphobic! black people are criminals! All that is classic far-right speech. And it's all studied in the Nazi propaganda techniques, which had been long studied and employed by all politicians across the globe. What you do is identify one minority you can blame for current problems, and turn the world against them, in such way that the public doesn't realise all you're doing, supposedly to erase the problem, that is actually just to make you more powerful. The Nazis decided Jews shouldn't be having so many businesses and thriving economy, so they demonised them, said they were greedy, thieves, the inferior race, less good than aryan people, criminals, that they didn't deserve to live. The Nazi was a legal party that was elected to remove the problem, much like Trump was elected to end the problem of the immigrants and the POC. And legally, Hitler got his people to vote for him to have more and more power, until he could rule the world, on the basis that he'd do it to rid them of the Jews. Only that then he didn't stop with the Jews. He went after "traitors", after gypsies, after LGBT, after POC, and so on. And they took or burned art and books along the way.

So now think again of who's supporting Hitler-like conducts. I'm not supporting anyone who's telling me not to listen to opposing opinions, who's telling me to spread a message of threats, harassment and sexual insults, nor who's telling me to burn books, culture, and cancel, silence, erase, eliminate anyone who has an opinion other than mine. You are. And that's what's Hitler-like. That's what's fucking dangerous, and a threat to freedom of speech, to democracy.

Going back to the bloody videogame. You know why they call it anti-Semitic or blood libel? first was with the goblins. Now that speech seems to have died down because we're pointing out that seeing goblins as Jews is more Nazi-like, than non-Nazi. That they're simply folklore. So now they shut up about that. Now they tell you that the Avalanche developers (that's the company behind Hogwarts Legacy) are anti-Semites. That's based on the fact that an alt-right, Troy Leavitt, was the lead designer of Hogwarts Legacy. Well, you've been pleased to know he's lost his job now, and also, that Avalanche is full of normal people just like us, and that the alt-right was a minority. This guy, perhaps one or two more we're yet to know about, which, given the amount of alt-right worldwide, it's safe to say that every big company has at least a small amount of alt-right employees or even bosses.

But it takes thousands of people to make a videogame as big as Hogwarts Legacy, and just because two or three are alt-right, it doesn't make the game anti-Semitic. We're taking the game from them. We're making it ours. And personally, I've been playing for a few days now, and there's nothing even remotely far-right or anti-Semitic. Any war game I've ever played is far more anti-Semitic and racist and sexist than this one will ever be.

And in any case, before you go like dumb sheep simply believing what people say, I encourage you to make your own informed opinions. Don't be lazy. Empty your brain from judgement and make your own research. Be like scientists. But believing whatever BS you hear from people who've never played the game about said game, from people who've never read Potter about Potter, and so on... That is such a stupid thing to do. Such a brainwashing. You don't believe someone can cure you if they don't show you a CV and reputation as great doctors, so why do you believe a word from people who haven't even researched the thing they criticise, on their own, not through other's comments and ideas?

But hold on! Don't just take my word for it. Don't just believe me. Please, do research. It's time-consuming, but you're going to want to read the news, who are TRAs, their links to the alt-right, Rowling's actual tweets, who Troy Leavitt is, what Avalanche Software is, and you're going to want to read the news about female violence, legal changes, and detransitioners, and a horrible thing called transmaxxing, which will really open your eyes. I won't tell you to burn books. I'll tell you to open books, newspapers, everything... And get really informed. Knowledge is power.

bi feminists and bi activists against any and all biphobia are so so so important to me and i just can’t explain it in full with the right words to honor them. i tried writing a whole essay post earlier but it just didn't encapsulate my point well enough, so here’s another one that does. i'm not even kidding, with the shit i've experienced in the past year, bi women and bi sapphics are so incredibly brave and strong. you truly cannot understand the trauma, pain, frustration, and rage unless you are one. if you’re bi and you’ve ever faced controversy as a result of taking up the space you belong in and being your authentic self, or even claiming you have a right to do so and live your own cultural life (because you do!), then i am so fucking sorry and i hope you find the support network you need from other fighting bisexuals who really do want to protect and help you with no strings attached.

Getting more and clear bisexual representation requires collective efforts from various stakeholders, including media creators, activists, advocates, and the general public. Here are some strategies to achieve this goal:

1. Advocate for Inclusive Policies: Encourage media companies, studios, and content creators to adopt policies that prioritize diversity and inclusion, including representation of bisexual characters and storylines.

2. Promote Diversity in Hiring: Encourage media organizations to hire a diverse range of writers, directors, and producers who can authentically and sensitively portray bisexual characters and experiences.

3. Support Bisexual Creators: Support and amplify the work of bisexual writers, directors, and content creators. By elevating their voices, we can increase the chances of authentic representation.

4. Collaborate with LGBTQ+ Organizations: Media creators can collaborate with LGBTQ+ advocacy organizations and individuals to gain insights into the experiences and concerns of bisexual individuals, ensuring more accurate representation.

5. Challenge Biphobic Narratives: Critique and challenge biphobic storylines and portrayals when they appear in media. Encourage media creators to avoid harmful stereotypes and misrepresentations of bisexual individuals.

Ok so I havent had much of a chance to draft an LGBT history post focused on the 80s yet, but I know a lot of people expressed interest. Just to limit my scope I'm still gonna focus in on contextualizing stranger things with it, but I'm curious what would people find most useful in it?

My planned topics so far are: terminology (what words existed to describe yourself), symbols (what flags or other markers existed to flag your identity, usually subtly), attitudes (how was homophobia different), and major events (what would these kids have been seeing on the news?). Is there anything else people would love for me to cover?

#stranger things #robin buckley #will byers #byler #steveddie #steddie #mostly tagging those for reach on this apologies folks #ive seen a lot of people tagging stuff as period typical homophobia when im not even sure it was period typical for 2010 yknow?#id like to help yall with this stuff since its a literal part of my degree #like bisexual was just becoming a popular term! thats exciting! the 80s saw the emergence of the pink triangle as a symbol for activists!#sadly most of the events section is gonna be like...murders and the AIDS crisis #im also planning to focus majorly on 83-86 because those are the years stranger things is set in #but ill give surrounding context dont worry

🌟✨ Celebrating Visionaries: Joan Baez, Richard Halliburton, and Simone de Beauvoir ✨🌟

Today, we pay homage to three remarkable souls whose contributions to music, exploration, and philosophy have left an indelible mark on our world. 🌍🎶

🌹 Joan Baez - The Voice of Activism:

Born on January 9, 1941, Joan Baez has graced our hearts with her soul-stirring folk music. Her melodic voice became a symbol of protest during the civil rights movement and the Vietnam War era. Her commitment to justice and peace continues to inspire generations.

🌍 Richard Halliburton - The Adventurous Explorer:

On January 9, 1900, the life and extraordinary journey of Richard Halliburton began. He traveled the globe, scaling mountains, and retracing the steps of historical figures. His travel writing brought the world closer to readers, igniting wanderlust in countless souls.

📚 Simone de Beauvoir - The Existential Intellectual:

Born on January 9, 1908, Simone de Beauvoir was a pioneering philosopher, novelist, and feminist. Her groundbreaking work, "The Second Sex," laid the foundation for modern feminist theory. She challenged societal norms, advocating for women's autonomy and equality.

As we celebrate the birthdays of these visionaries, let us remember the power of music, the allure of exploration, and the significance of questioning the status quo. Their legacies remind us that the pursuit of justice, knowledge, and self-expression knows no bounds.

Happy Birthday to Joan Baez, Richard Halliburton, and Simone de Beauvoir! 🎂🌹🌍 Let their contributions to the world continue to inspire and shape our journey through life. 🎶🌄📚

The personal coming-of-age game that I've been working forever on has been released, and it's part of Gayming LIVE Indie Festival this week! I totally came out during the game's development because that's what happens when you're introspective with your art. I drew from my omnidemi identity while writing the game scenes.
