Somebody asked on the deux moi sub a hated celeb you have a soft spot for and all the top answers are justifiably hated abusive men 😭 whenever someone asks what's a popular celeb you hate all the top answers are random women

Yet again very funny when people are like 'oh, you like fantasy stories with good kings and fair queens and you root for royalty in fiction, yet you don't want to be ruled by an actual, real life person whose only qualification to be your superior is that 'her blood is simply better'. Check mate liberal.'

Y'all ever think about how some randos one day were like "oh this baby has these genitals and this baby has these genitals, let's say this baby is this gender and this baby is this gender?" & now we have an entire fucking society based on some entirely MADE UP SHIT!!! LIKE!!! WHO SAID THIS WAS OK?

It's honestly gotten to a point where I see "You're being endlessly tracked at all times." And I'm just like "Sick. Cool. Whatever" and move on because damn you just get used to the dystopian surveillance after a while

#tbh #books from my childhood have desensitized me to this #like #you read books about horrible oppresive governments watching the move of every citizen and shit #and now its happening and its like.... #yeah. ok man. i get the picture. sod off i have other things to be doing #we sure do live in a society

of course you can read necros and cavs as a parallel to the gender binary bc A) you can do whatever you want forever and B) yeah there's plenty of textual evidence comparing the necro-cav bond to a marriage. however one thing i think many of these discussions keep missing is the fact that most people in the nine houses are not necros or cavs and do in fact exist outside of this binary. which would make it. not really much of a binary

#get ur warm takes here #i know other people have said this already but i really feel like this binary idea has proliferated recently #but i get it i mean in the books we have almost zero exposure to House citizens living outside this 'binary' #so it is a binary in the sense that you can apply it to our major characters who are from the nine houses #but i'm just not sure about extrapolating it to the whole fictional society #i do think there are comparisons to be drawn here i just don't think enough discussions account for this third group being most of #the population. #like do a thematic analysis for sure but personally i would stop short of saying 'joh created a new gender binary and forced everyone into #it' bc. what about all those other offscreen characters who are neither necro nor cav #the locked tomb #nonasbirthday

Tumblr pet peeve 27: the people who apparently spend so little time in reality that they think the main appeal of fake leather is that it's vegan and not that real leather is fucking expensive. Seriously when's the last time you bought something made out of real leather? That shit costs so much money.

#I mean it can be worth it but most vegans who don't want to buy leather just buy things that don't look like leather #most people who buy fake leather want the leather aesthetic for a cheaper price #you can yell at people about sustainability if you want #but if you're doing it about fake leather and not about like ...other synthetic clothing #that sure is a choice #(but don't do it about other synthetic clothing either ok? we live in a society and individual consumption isn't the main problem #most garbage patch plastic is fishing gear) #oh wait but that doesn't help you hate vegans ah I see the problem here

Not to be anti-psych on main but people act like the psychiatry industry is sooooooooo perfect and helpful and great nowadays as if they didn’t drill holes into people’s brains and literally torture marginalized people with restraints and isolation and electric shocks less than a century ago. The horrors of lobotomies & insane asylums are still very recent and forced hospitalization & forced treatment still traumatize people every goddamn day

#''go to therapy you FREAK'' is an ableist card to play in an argument & I won’t shut up about that <3 #« well theyre not literally lobotomizing ret— I mean people anymore so surely theres no deep underlying issues with the system as a whole » #It’s a capitalistic industry built on ableism that runs on ableism. You can’t separate it from ableism; it is the very root of ableism #And I mean. C’mon. We live in a for-profit society. Do you really think they intend on curing or fixing anybody? #If you’re cured or fixed then you won’t give them anymore money for them to tell you what’s wrong with you!! #Maybe there are Some Good Ones but on the whole the industry cares more about draining your bank account than helping you #And if they do help you 90% of the time it’s just so you can be a more functional cog in the machine of capitalism

People who go "why don't you eradicate gender" annoy me so much, because gender is what I am on the inside, if both genders were treated the same, I would still be transgender because I'd still feel like a man internally and it's so hard to get other people to realize that eradicating gender is literally an impossible task, that's like asking people to eradicate sexuality so you wont have homophobia anymore, like no, people have an innate sense of their own gender/sexuality that cannot be eradicated because thats just part of being human. I genuinely feel like what these people mean is to eradicate gender roles rather than gender but still...

Sorry for the long ask, I'm just frustrated with people not understanding

It's also like... unreasonable to ask trans people specifically. We've been around for millenia - as long as there are human beings born and alive, there we will be. If gender weren't a thing, people would transition. People would still be trans. We can't be eradicated through "well let's just make gender not a thing!!!!" and it feels like some people only want gender eradicated because they think that will eradicate trans people.

Like I've said before, trans and cis people both would benefit from gender roles being less constricting and less of a priority in society. What we need is to accept others - especially those of whom "buck the binary," so to speak.

I understand the nuance that goes into these conversations; however, it's like... nobody seems interested in having it in good faith, or talking about this in a way that isn't, "you trans people are so fucking regressive about gender, unlike cis people, who are historically more normal about it."

#ask #anon #trans #transgender #lgbt #lgbtq #ftm #mtf #nonbinary #like i feel like even if we would completely eradicate gender... different genders and norms would arise despite the effort #so i think the best recourse is to make sure genderqueerness isn't treated like a fucking curse or disease #like would i *mind* if gender weren't a thing? i suppose not but i have no clue because that's not the society i live in #and it has *never* been the society i've lived in so... i don't know for sure #but i sure as hell know what society ought *not* to do based on the shit i have experienced #hopefully this makes sense 👍

I have so many fanfiction drafts of this show and like every day I get new ideas

This was the first one I feel is in a good enough state for me upload

Hope anyone who reads it enjoys !!

#genuinely sorry if the characters are too ooc I was trying my best to not do that #I had so much fun writing this #can’t believe Deniz and Leon kissed in the final episode #most of my fics will probably be about found family #since there’s like only 3 ships in this show I really care about #too bad it’s easier for me to write romance than found family #we live in a society #but who says there can’t be romance in found family fics #and found family in romance fics #the next fanfiction I’m going to be finishing and posting is a Vanessa x Natasha one #i’m just not sure at what time I’m exactly able to do that #at this point I’m just using tumblr tags to recap my life story #like there’s always a whole personal essay to be found here #my apolocheese but also I’m not going to be changing my ways #die wilden kerle animated series #dwk animated series #dwk jojo #dwk deniz #dwk vanessa #dwk leon #dwk markus #dwk marlon #dwk raban

No one’s bothered by people shipping helaemond but their behavior is what’s the problem and it’s more than just a few lol

It gives bothered vibes when somebody comes into a random blog and states adamantly that helaemond isn’t gonna happen. Like…okay. and??? 😫

Also, just like a single Alysmond, Helaegon, Rhaenicent, Daemyra ect, ect, supporting-blog doesn’t speak for the bad behavior of other random people on the internet, I can’t be expected to speak on the bad behavior of others either.

I don’t control the flow of information you’re exposed to or the algorithm or whatever 😭

#I’m sure there’s problematic helaemonds but that’s like…a given?? when human beings get into groups????? #we live in a society #I certainly dont condone it. but I’m just a tumblr girlie not the president I can’t do anything about it 😩 #for the most part my blog tries to be an inclusive and positive space??? I hope!!!! #helaemond

i hate!!! labels!!!!! i hate society's need to put every bit of the human experience into arbitrary, meaningless little boxes!!! i hate taking beautifully unique experiences and shoving them into categories that will never truly fit them!!! i hate taking people's identities and comforts and using them to invalidate their personhood and experiences!!! every single human being is impossibly unique and there will never be a single other person exactly like them and that's beautiful!!! why!!! do we have to break everything down and put it into boxes that are never perfectly the right shape!!!! we are all unique and that makes us all the same!!! let people express their personhood and define their experiences in ways that are unique to them!!!

#spooky.thoughts #i'm sORRY I GOT HEATED AND JUST. AUGH. #this is NOT about individuals finding comfort in labels and shared experiences #this is about society's reliance on labels to define every single fucking thing about people's lives!!! #why do i owe it to anyone else to fit into a label??? #why do i owe it to anyone else to give them a label to try and define me with??? #and stop!!!! using labels!!! as a way to tell people they don't fit in to that label!!!!! #it makes me so!!!! hhhhrrghghghgh #okay. okay. okay. i'm fine. #i don't understand why we as humans have to try and categorize absolutely every little thing that shapes us as individuals #stop it. we're individuals for a reason. #and if we could just accept that every human experience is unique then i think we would all accept each other a lot easier!!!! #there is no us vs them if we are all just!!!! the same in our individuality!!!! #THE HUMAN EXPERIENCE IS VAST AND INCOMPREHENSIBLE AND YOU CANNOT DEFINE IT IN FORCED BOXES AND LABELS AND UNIVERSAL CONSTANTS #part of this is because i had to read about formalism in art history and it made me angry #part of it is bc i saw the post like. 2 rbs ago. one or 2. the one about friendships/qprs #i just can't tAKE IT ANYMORE #ok. rant over this time. #this time for sure.

Every time I spend too many days in a row at home, I get it into my head that I don't actually want to transition, and then I go back into the world and go Oh. I remember what it's like to have a body and a mind.

#it's almost like a huge portion of our genders are determined socially. by those who are around us and by the situations and spaces we inhab #-inhabit. #it's almost like i study this at an honours level. #<< that doesn't in any way discount or devalue or delegitimize a person's gender identity and expression. #we do Live in a Society #can't really be disabled without the world that disables. might not know you want to transition until you understand your own position. #sometimes it's relative. #also sorry i've been using tumblr as like a complain diary lately. i'm going through some serious shit. #it is a blogging site so. #i'm sure i'm not the only person who thinks 'i must not be trans' the moment i don't feel intense dysphoria and self-hatred. #thanks to the medical/deficit model! #and i do feel intense dysphoria and self-hatred. oh i do. but sometimes it's easier in my home and i forget. and i go: #'Oh! i must be cis because i feel okay about my body and mind today' #*whispering to self* you're just scaaaaared. scaredy little peepeepoopoo pants who won't accept being wrong
