existential female despair

"TERFs didn't take it seriously" mother fucker radfems reported that person to the fucking FBI on multiple occasions and have been tracking as much as they can about them because they openly threatened minors with rape. Genuinely what the fuck are they talking about like I would seriously love to know where they're getting their information from.

Nah, fuck this. I did not get graphic rape threats and incest fantasy and "if you don't support kids getting HRT and surgery you're a pedophile" and various forms of "feminists deserve to be raped to death" for this stupid ass fucking white moid to sit here and blame feminists. FUCK you. I am so fucking sick of feminists being blamed for every fucking thing in the entire world. Of course this white male who larps as a woman is itching for the opportunity to paint feminists in a bad light. I am so sick of them I genuinely am I don't fucking care if it sounds hateful. The shit those bots have been putting in our inboxes months before they reached tras was actually fucking sickening and it made Tumblr literally unusable for many of us, and they targeted fucking minors too bc obviously they're bots. Fuck you fuck this whole movement.

i really cannot stand the character archetype in film of the "unpopular nerdy ugly girl" being portrayed by the most conventionally attractive, thin, clear-skinned actress ever you cannot tell me that amanda goddamn seyfried was some fugly lesbigay loser as a foil to megan fox you cannot tell me beloved babyfaced winona ryder was a social outcast at her school you cannot convince me that rachel sennott and ayo edebiri are notoriously "ugly, untalented gays" even riverdale lampshaded this by fully acknowledging that cheryl shouldnt have starred as carrie in the school play and it shouldve been ethel cause ethel is The Fat One Nobody Likes and ethel even IS chubby enough that you could actually consider her "fat" but she's still an acceptably Cute type of fat but in the end she STILL gets denied the role anyway. real ugly and/or fat girls are straight up not allowed to exist on camera even when the narrative tells you they're there they're not actually there. im just so tired. where is the acne. [flinging myself against the walls of my padded cell] where is the acne where is the acne wwhere is the fucking acne

the thing that bewilders me about a lot of fantasy readers is that they read about settings and plots featuring imperialism, war, and slavery and then call the inclusion of violence, abuse, and sexual exploitation "edgy" and "gratuitous" and it's like what did you think was happening. why were you under the impression that you were going to get a cozy story about fascism or something. far be it from me to criticize anyone for not wanting to read about torture in their spare time, and there are certainly cases where heavy subjects are poorly executed, but is it not equally insulting to sanitize them for a feel-good adventure.. like no one put a gun to your head and forced you to give your fantasy novel an enslaved protagonist. sometimes writing is supposed to make you feel bad

There's a recurring online tendency to aestheticize consensus itself. The imagined future village is full of emotionally compatible people who enjoy communal gardening, conflict resolution circles, acoustic folk music, mutual aid potlucks, and repairing bicycles together at sunset. Which is nice for the people who genuinely enjoy that lifestyle. But plenty of humans are solitary, prickly, obsessive, urban, nocturnal, sensory-seeking, technologically attached, contrarian, novelty-seeking, private, or just plain difficult. Those people do not evaporate after the revolution. They do not get Left Behind while you are Raptured into the Utopia. They become your neighbors.

I could take or leave a tasteful em dash but I am so extremely prejudicial against “it’s not [just] x, it’s y” sentence structure it’s insane

Your family will straight up ruin your life if you let them decide anything for you. And what’s crazy is most of the time they think they’re helping you by doing it. Maybe on some level they love seeing you fail and prove yourself incapable of being your own person
