Bisexual John Danziger Evangelist

don't infantilise yourself. you are not a child who needs an adult to make your decisions for you. you are a splendid and magnificent autocrat and you are consulting your trusted advisors. you are exercising great wisdom by inviting an expert to give their opinion before making your ruling. often the path of wisdom is to say "good morning, I'm trying to [perform task] and I have a question about [aspect], can you tell me who I should speak to for advice?" before you do it. sometimes the path of wisdom is to hire a plumber. there are times when you cannot do things for yourself but that doesn't mean you are not an adult. you don't need a grown-up. you need a specialist.

FANDOM ETIQUETTE NEEDS A RETURN SOOOO STRONGLY

I'm not immune to nostalgia for 2010s liberalism a la "this used to be the sjw website" but honestly ...... as much as the overton window has shifted into hell. What with the fascism. It did always kinda suck though didn't it

We Are having such an insane wave of antifeminism in otherwise lefty queer progressive type spaces but it's easy to forget what we used to have was, like. Pussy hats

That being said we did have Black people here before tumblr exploded their blogs. Women, even. And we had sex workers, too. Tumblr's political climate getting Worse can be pretty clearly traced to nuking all the Black women (2016) and sex workers (2018) and trans women (Right Now)

uuuuh okay update on the crush discourse going on in my notes: if a friend has a crush on you and they do tell you they're unfairly pressuring you to reciprocate but if they don't tell you they're being dishonest with you so either way they've ruined the friendship. every day the most anxious minds on earth make amazing philosophical strides on this website.

DIYHRT.market is back as valerie.vg

I've seen soooo many Terfs talking about how vaginas make a person oppressed so trans women couldn't *possibly" face any oppression that I think I need to remind everyone that many trans women have vaginas. The entire notion is bullshit anyways of course but like... Transition is indeed possible

The way all the 2020s have done so far have been making me categorically against every new generation of tech that comes out is insane. Like I'm from a technological boom generation, saw the first portable phones, nokias & blackberries & flipphones etc, and the first smartphones, and the first ipods & ipads & tablets in general while still having cassettes & DVD & MP3 players around so I know how all of it work, I had computer classes in high school, I did the transition between home desktop computers to laptops and back to gaming computers. But then they started to put internet in your printer & microwave, everything has ads & AI now and every update is worst than the last. I literally loved technology and they ruined it

The PR that Canada got is kinda crazy if you think about it, considering the things that colony did and still do.

the rule of tumblr is that all your most insightful commentary must be buried under a mandatory "This is What You stupid fucking people Don't Fucking Get" just make it as hostile and offputting as possible. really aim to make people unsafe, cause we all know that's when people are most likely to listen

Y'all hear about this nuance stuff

I've heard mixed things.

Oh so it sucks then, and you hate it
