it should make you angrier how few black transfems are on this site let alone active

like i feel insane. why do so few people notice this disparity? so many black transfems have fled, deactivated, or been terminated. the few who are left are usually getting targeted by harassment campaigns, denied autonomy, treated as mere scapegoats, and are often forced to stay in this murderously hostile environment for mutual aid reasons. why do we not notice this more???

if your response to, “I wish there was more sex repulsed asexual representation,” is to point out not all aces are sex repulsed, maybe first stop and ask yourself why you are doing that. We live in a society that’s constantly telling us we need to have sex and I’m so glad there are aces who aren’t bothered by that, but it doesn’t invalidate those of us that do not want to. This isn’t a competition, I want to see all kinds of aces, being upset with a lack of respect for sex repulsed aces doesn’t mean I think the rep that’s already there for sex favorable aces should be changed. I am capable of wanting both, why aren’t you?

I got an e-mail from my son's school saying they have "become aware of a proposed student walkout on Thursday 13 August associated with the “Students Say No to Hanson” event, protesting Pauline Hanson and One Nation" and that "the proposed walkout is not supported or endorsed by me (the principal) or by school staff." They also recommended that "families discuss... with their children before Thursday" so I texted my kid about it, he didn't know it was happening and wasn't fully aware of who Pauline Hanson was, but now he knows, and is mad as hell, and is absolutely talking part in the walkout tomorrow lol Can't even rely on schools to do the woke indoctrination anymore, I have to do it all myself smh

It can either be an herbivore or a herbivore depending on if you want to pronounce your H sounds today

I really am sick of the “We killed this person/pointed a gun at them because they were trying to run us over.” justification from ICE and cops. Get out of the fucking way. Lol. Motorists hit bicyclists and pedestrians all the time while they’re minding their own goddamn business and they don’t pull a gun on the driver. You’re standing in front of a car so you can shoot someone and justify it. You’re not minding your own goddamn business crossing the street, you’re looking for a reason to kill.

Gets stuck in the past and makes a random village get way smarter and less violent in a generational sense because I keep smacking people over the head with a stick and telling them that it’s the devil’s metal whenever they try to use lead for something in my presence and there develops a very niche regionalized superstition that an angry warlock will jump out of a tree and beat the shit out of you if you touch lead with your bare hands

Gets excommunicated by the Catholic Church for telling people that they can banish the devil from their water if they boil it therefore saving hundreds of people from a cholera outbreak but I don’t care and keep trying to convince the locals to use soap more often

christ above I hate electric scooters with a burning passion. if you use them and live in a place without strict regulations, at the very least put them neatly off to the side instead of right in the middle of the bloody footpath. (The one that inspired this post was parked across it, no less, so it would be irritating even for an ablebodied person.) It's a hazard and obstruction for white cane users, wheelchair users, rollator users, mobility scooters, and, yes, also for parents/guardians with prams and pushchairs. Look out for your fellow pedestrians.

Understanding animals as intelligent enough to leave you alone because they're herbivores/you're too big for them to kill and eat > understanding animals as intelligent and not eating them because they're intelligent

when people defend the “Cis white guy is default” thing like “He’s meant to be an everyman we can all relate to and project on!” kindly remind them the largest ethnic group in the WORLD is Han Chinese and the highest gender percentage fluctuates so if you want an ACTUAL  “default” you want a 40 year old chinese person whose gender changes from year to year.

Im always scared to call someone my friend because what if they dont consider me a friend and hate me because of that
