paranoia is in bloom

not to be a joyless hag but I've started seeing genderbent "yuri" shipping Markiplier and Ryan Gosling and I can't help but think of someone I recently I unfollowed for posting that they have an easier time caring about genderbent versions of boy characters than regular fictional women

I'm sorry but we don't need Markiplier x Ryan Gosling genderbent yuri discourse. The entire genderbent Markiplier x Ryan Gosling yuri community is probably like three people. There are group chats bigger than this issue. There are ska bands with more members than a fandom this spectacularly niche. Not everything needs to become the subject of a thinkpiece that you use to reflect upon society.

oh sorry I didn't realize complaining about petty nuisances on tumblr dot edu was against the rules now

The sign many left wingers have subconsciously accepted moving right on covid and embraced lowering public health standards is when people seem to think “masks should be mandatory in healthcare settings /airplanes “ is somehow a radical position to take in an ongoing pandemic

wow its really interesting how you can look up literally any condition and it'll say that one of the things you should do to treat it is lose weight. like oh really? always? for every single disorder? that's really interesting, such an interesting coincidence! every condition in the world is caused by being fat? you're sure?

saw a post arguing that trans*ndrophobia should exist as a term even though other types of men do not get their own unique terms (ie, black men do not get a counterpart term to misogynoir, etc), and that the reason for this is because "discrimination against transmascs is more complex and nuanced than against cis male minorities" and that's gotta be one of the whitest, most birthday boy ass sentences ever conceived.

You know, there's this cliché that teenage boys always eat massive amounts, but teenage girls really aren't that different if they're not suppressed by diet culture and body shaming. Like, I was a teenage girl who frankly just stopped bothering to fit into mainstream beauty ideals at some point, and I would regularly make myself just one big massive pot of pasta and devour it completely. This wasn't even stress eating or anything, I just genuinely needed the energy because you know, I was a teenager and my body was developing. I feel like so many teenage girls think they need to eat as little as possible to be petite and pretty, but the truth is that your body is developing just as intensely as teenage boys' bodies. Eat more, please, your body needs it.

some of you people are so annoying. i mean me too but good lord

the thing about art is that sometimes you'll be moved to tears by stuff that is not very good
