Woman. Demon. Empress.

I'm going back to my bullshit of putting this one on everyone's dash again.

"hiding behind your identity as a shield" ah yes trans women, classically the group of people most often treated fairly and given the most benefit of the doubt. nobody has any preconceived notions about trans women, society says nothing negative about them, The Ultimate Criticism Magnet is clearly the best shield someone could use to deflect criticism

what kind of alternate reality do you live in where being a trans woman shields you from literally any criticism, genuinely. we don't have to get into all the widespread legal and social ways trans women specifically are easy and frequent targets, we don't even have to look further than queer tumblr specifically. if the trans woman has dozens of accounts entirely dedicated to criticizing her then i don't think her identity as a trans woman is really "shielding" her from anything, now is it?

people love to say "we hate you because you're a trans woman and we hate trans women" and then when you say "hey this person hates me for being a trans woman" they go "why are you making this about identity politics"

Some of the edgiest queers in the world who constantly talk about romanticizing cannibalism and gore is punk or whatever will turn into the literal pope when confronted with anything realistic having to do with sex like im sorry but people fuck in the park at night sometimes always have and always will and you’re going to have to go about your life without advocating for them to be skinned alive in Alcatraz

little miss emotionally unstable would like to get drunk in her room alone tonight

And also the indestructibility of that woman's ankles

THE VIDEO THAT TUMBLR DIDN’T WANT YOU TO SEE BUT CHANGED IT’S MIND ABOUT AND ALLOWED YOU TO SEE

I looked this up to show it to a friend so I’m bringing this video the fuck back

It's fine to disagree with the IAU about the definition of "planet"; however, if your definition includes Pluto but not Ceres, Orcus, Haumea, Quaoar, Makemake, Gonggong, Eris or Sedna, you don't actually care what a planet is – you just want the exact list of nine planets you learned in primary school back. Your cute little Pluto-including orbital distance mnemonic ought to be at least seventeen words long, and good fucking luck with the Q!

My Very Exciting Magic Carpet Just Sailed Under Nine Orphic Palaces, Slandering Hungry Quaker Matrons Going Erotically Southward.

I appreciate that you included Salacia but not Charon – really threading the needle pedantry-wise there.

so ive been meaning to do this poll for a while because my hypothesis is that seattle is the most Tumblr city, likely in the entire world. tumblr has a huge american majority userbase obviously, but just for comparison going forward, only 0.22% of the american population lives in seattle. as of this reblog, this poll is showing 4% of respondents are seattleites. given, this isnt scientific at all, because my blog just has a lot of seattle connections and seattle followers, but it's still an impressive bias

honestly I think I lost a lot of faith in humanity when hogwarts legacy happened. thousands of people heard "jkr is transphobic" and didn't think that was enough reason to not buy a mediocre videogame and it became a runaway success. it was such a basic show of decency and it was too much. return the shopping cart ass dilemma. I'm a misanthrope now

the amount of people who also KNEW explicity that jkr is a transphobe and chose to just, like, not care, and play that game anyway, is astounding. i lost friends i thought were good friends because they were chill just ignoring her blatant transphobia, and i couldnt be around them anymore

Never a better time for the Streisand Effect than when it's a government covering up acts of brutality and evil.

if you complain about the Chinese government covering up Tianamen Square, then complain about this, too.
