It's been an eternity since I last shitposted about my OCs even tho nobody on Tumblr, except like two people, will understand all the inside jokes and references, so...
~ My OCs as things my friends have said or texted me ~
Cymbeline: The sun is a Karen. No, I don't take constructive critism, thank you very much.
Hoku: "conquer the moon" isn't one of my priorities, but it sure is a point on my bucket list.
Damodara: If you salt your soup and don't cry when tasting it it's not salty enough.
Briar: *to the tune of "I Don't Care" by Fall Out Boy* I 🎶 am 🎶 scared 🎶 that 🎶 I 🎶 won't 🎶 fucking 🎶 pass 🎶 this 🎶 school 🎶 year 🎶 because 🎶 my 🎶 mom 🎶 will 🎶 definitely 🎶 beeEEeeEEEeeeeEAt 🎶 me 🎶 up
Grim: Quarantine, Day 450 - my sleep paralysis demon do be looking pretty fine all of a sudden, ngl ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
Scorch: Sometimes I legit wanna light myself on fire-
Crash: Y'know how I used to say that everyone's perfect? Yeah, fuck that, I just realized that Ed Sheeran still exists.
Swan: "having blue hair isn't a personality" but not minding your own business is? Shit, alright.
Mime: I have so much money and I don't even know where it came from- hol' up, did I accidentally steal it from somewhere? c_c
Neon: Since school is a prison, I'm gonna commit arson. So, if the cops wanna put me into jail, I'm like "oh, don't worry, I go there every week". In this essay I will.
Virus: due to personal reasons I will eat shit and die-
The Deranged Daughters alltogether: quit school, let's run away from home, we're joining the Emo Trinity and becoming the next cool band.
Gladiola: Bro, my back hurts from carrying my entire-ass disfunctional fam by just being the gay cousin.
Enki: If you don't condescendingly call your siblings "darling" or "honey", then are you even real siblings?
Adonis: I manwhored my way into this mess, I'll manwhore my way out.
Smaragdos: Local Omnisexual Safes The Day With The Power Of Punk Rock, More At Five.
Palash: From the bottom of my heart, out of the deepest corners of my rotten braincells, I just wanna say and really mean it: 💖 fuck off 💖
Lazuli: I'm not a masochist, I just don't have a will to live and get horny from it.
Gizelle: I'd trade my brother for a girlfriend. I would literally sacrifice that mf to Aphrodite, in exchange for a gf. At this point, I don't even care. I just want a gf.
Cobalt: Wombats - Can They Kill Your Family? Yes. Yes, They Can.
Mars: So... demigender rights, am I rite?

People with broad labels claiming that more specific labels are “tearing this community apart” are just. blatantly lying. People with specific identities are not attacking people with broad identities. It’s literally the opposite, the exact same thing you’re doing when you make posts about how “all these pride flags are tearing us apart”.
Let’s fucking use an example.
My favorite color is blue. A lot of people’s favorite color is blue. If I talk to someone whose favorite color is blue, we both agree that our favorite color is blue.
But what shade of blue?
My favorite shade of blue is almost sky blue, but a little darker. 09BEF2 in hex code. 
So by specifying my favorite shade of blue, are you going to tell me that I’m destroying the unity of the “my favorite color is blue” community???
Are you gonna tell me that by using “aroace” I’m destroying the unity of the aromantic and asexual communities?
Are you gonna tell me that by using xiqyne I’m tearing apart the unity of the nonbinary community?
You like broad labels? You’re 100% happy with just calling yourself [insert whatever identity you think is acceptable here]? Then cool. Good for you.
But you do not get to fucking tell people who seek more specific understanding of their identity and experiences that we are the reason bigots hate us all.
If someone just wants to call themselves queer that’s epic. Good for them. If someone just wants to call themselves an mspec lesbian that’s epic. Good for them. If someone just wants to call themselves an aromantic asexual aplatonic xiqyne nonbinary person that’s epic. Good for fucking me. If someone wants to examine and give names to every part of their experiences they can identify, good for them! That is epic! None of these things are bad or wrong or better or worse than eachother!
Queer people genuinely and harmlessly being themselves is not the reason queerphobia exists! Queerphobia exists because you keep making excuses for queerphobes and victim-blaming others instead of holding the queerphobes accountable and demanding they do better!
Stop acting like literally harmless, genuine queer identities that you don’t like are the reason cisallohets hate us. You are not being an ally, you are victim blaming and supporting bigots.

Discourse is tiring. Exclusionism, gatekeeping and bigotry is draining to witness and even more so to experience. Being queer and being in online queer spaces can be so horrifically detrimental to one's health, especially for those of us who don't have other spaces to go or can't access them for one reason or another.
However, when things start to seem especially hopeless, or like the queer community as a whole is doomed to just cannibalize itself for the next few decades, there's something I have started to keep in mind - and it's something I want y'all to keep in mind for when things seem especially bad in our online queer spaces.
Words and actions on the internet do have impact, and they do hurt us, yes. However, take a second to imagine a day where you wake up to find all social media platforms gone. No more Twitter, Tumblr, Facebook, Reddit, none of it. All of it just wiped out from the internet.
Maybe even go a step further. The internet itself has been wiped away entirely, from all devices, across the entire globe. Now think of all the discourse that has happened on the internet. All of it would be gone, and none of these self-centered, circle-jerking arsehole bigots would be able to have their hurtful voices heard, again.
All the discourse that happens online is just that. Online discourse. Because the internet has allowed for these hateful, sad, pitiful people to spread their infectious hatred of others without reprimand or consequence. It's allowed for them to hide in plain sight, and thus allowed for countless queer people, young and old, to be put at risk - perhaps even far more than they are offline.
If the internet was wiped out, they wouldn't be able to do this. They wouldn't have a platform to scream from, and people like them would just continue to boil and stew and rot away in their homes, because let's face it. These people are not going to Pride Parades. They aren't, because Pride Parades are everything that they hate - and they know damn well they'd be outnumbered.
Because irl queer spaces are loving, accepting, and don't see themselves as these higher councils that get to decide whether mspec lesbians/gays are homo/mspecphobic or not, whether heteroromantic asexuals are queer enough to be in the community, if all the MOGAI genders and non-dysphoric trans people in the world are Real and Valid or just #Cringey-Gen-Z, etc.
Yes, these issues do slip through the cracks because this house is old and there are bound to be leaks from the ceiling, but they're fixable, small, and oftentimes barely noticeable. Just like the discourse that happens online; at least when it comes to the groups and events that happen irl. At the end of the day, we're all just sitting and looking at funny little machines that hold so much power to them and are all connected to one another. Those funny little machines could so easily be disregarded, thrown away, and destroyed completely.
But the irl queer community, and the solidarity that exists within it, is not so easily disposable. That's what's so beautiful about it, and it's why it's so important to remember this whenever discourse starts to get bad.
If the internet were to be wiped from existence tomorrow, none of these hateful words would ever get a platform. Even if they did, the countless irl queer people would see through their bullshit, and rightfully tear them and their platform down.
So just think about that when things start looking hopeless for our community. Think about the wide, diverse, and accepting irl queer spaces we have, the scenario in which the internet has been wiped away and we no longer are in danger of getting threatened by fellow queer people and cisallohets alike for being who we are, and just ultimately think this:
I have been hurt by what has been said by this person online, and that is real. But their words can only go as far as words on a piece of technology's screen. There is hundreds, if not thousands, of pieces of history that debunk them. I know in an irl space, I would be safe, loved, and cherished, and this person would be hated, judged, and ignored. I am safe, or loved, and most certainly cherished beyond this screen, and that is real.

quoted from someone who politely requested I make my own post, in the same breath that they used the term “q slur”, but who did not in the OP actually say anything wrong:
please stop using straight as an antonym for lgbt when it’s cishet,,, straight trans people are part of our community and even when you don’t mean it like that it’s still implied & harmful 
my reblog:
‘cishet’ keeps being used to exclude asexual and aromantic people from the LGBT community; 'cisallohet’ is explicit about not doing that, and 'cisalloperihet’ is explicit about not doing the intersex-exclusionary version, but six syllables–and, y'know, the condensed intro to queer studies lesson required to understand the word!–is a lil bit much
'queer’ implicitly includes 'trans’ regardless, but there isn’t really a good antonym for it; 'straight’ isn’t great for the reasons OP states, but 'normative’ needs more condensed intro to queer studies lessons than 'cisalloperihet’ does in order to understand what the deal is; 'normative’ isn’t solely regarding societal norms around gender, sexuality, and relationships, either, it’s a broader word than that but the more specific words are 'cisnormative’, 'amatonormative’, and so forth, none of which are broad enough to be antonyms for all of 'queer’
idk words are hard y'all
