can everyone please keep in mind that thereâs something bigger than âtumblr didnât watch this show so theyâre to blame for its cancellationâ when it comes to shows like sense8 and the get down getting cancelled?
those two shows are frequently listed as being the most expensive shows netflix has on their roster. they were going at over a hundred million dollars per season. think about that, and then think about how many times youâve seen either of those shows advertised.Â
and then think about how many times youâve seen thirteen reasons why or orange is the new black or stranger things advertised in comparison.
netflix, as a company, chose to give these shows with highly diverse casts the biggest budget and the smallest amount of advertisement possible. you know what happens when you donât advertise tv shows? people donât watch them.
iâm not talking about tumblr user #5754783 deciding not to watch the get down because they are (rightfully) uncomfortable with its depictions of abuse/assault or twitter user #2423857 deciding not to watch sense8 because they are (rightfully) concerned about its depictions of cultures close to their hearts or their tendency to prioritize white characters narratively.
iâm talking about the masses of casual netflix users who donât get into fandom culture. the largest block of netflixâs audience. the people who clicked on OITNB because they saw commercials on TV and advertisement on facebook. the people who saw 13 reasons why getting hyped up for months before its release because netflix did the leg work to get news about it out there.
so hereâs the shit netflix seems to be pulling right now:
throw a huge budget at highly diverse, imaginative shows and reap the benefits of people applauding them for doing so
pull advertisement so that no one watches them
cancel them and blame lack of viewership
watch tumblr/twitter standom go after random users who didnât want to watch the show (absolving netflix as a company of blame for it)
renew All Str8 White Show #2456 for a sixth season
itâsâŚâŚâŚreally fucking transparent, guys, so maybe direct your anger in the right places
So Captain Underpants explores the friendship between a gay boy and a black bisexual boy and yâall wanna say Beauty and the Beast was the pinnacle of gay representation in childrenâs films huh
Captain Underpants comes out on Pride Month. Coincidence? I think the fuck NOT.
Excuse but Harold and George aint gay.
You miss the book where Harold has a husband?
Fanfiction aint canon
Itâs in the official books written by the actual author, so it is canon. Pilkey wrote it, so itâs canon.Â
I refuse to believe he willingly inserted a political agenda into a popular, established children series
Oh look, stuff from the book! The actual canon book.Â
Look at Harold with his husband and kids. Very small but super poignant.Â
surprise sur-fucking-prise the existence of gay people isnt a political agenda
My gender is mine to decide. Even if I take a while to figure it out

We didnât have a word for our, as you guys call, gay/lesbian people. So we coined that word as an umbrella for all our tribes. We never said, âWell, youâre transgender. Youâre bisexual. Youâre lesbian.â We never knew those terms. Those are all from Western culture, you know, LGBTQ and all that. So on some level, itâs about getting rid of labels. Those terms were forced upon us.
see: cultural appropriation
Men with stretch marks are entitled to be proud of their body, especially trans men!
Last month a study on the human brain showed that we were wrong: brain structure is not gender-specific.
If any of my followers believes that âbrain sexâ is a rigid and well defined category check this out
I actually did a study on this in my freshman year of university!
I had to give a ten minute presentation on gender and a) how itâs different from sex, and b) whether or not thereâs such thing as a âmaleâ and âfemaleâ brain.
I found COUNTLESS studies supporting the idea that the brain itself is unisex- there is very little, if any, difference between âmaleâ and âfemaleâ brains, with one exception. Iâm by no means a neuroscientist but this is what I understood from this particular article: thereâs this tiny part of the hypothalamus (a small part of the brain) that has neutrons in it, and the number of neutrons varies. HOWEVER, when the brains of cis men and women and trans men and women (who had not taken hormones for years prior to the time of death) were studied, it was found that the cis men and trans men had almost identical average neutron counts, and the cis women and trans women had almost identical average neutron counts. So if youâre DMAB but realize at some point that youâre a trans woman, as far as your brain is concerned, you ARE a woman! The same goes for DFAB trans men (intersex/nonbinary individuals werenât studied, unfortunately).
TLDR; Your brain doesnât care what you were âborn asâ, only what you really are!
Iâm currently reading a fantastic book that goes through and debunks old studies that âfind evidenceâ to support gender roles. SPOILER ALERT: they were all poorly done studies and their evidence is unsupported bullshit.
White women are so dangerous because theyâre allowed to be so soft â innocent until proven innocent.
White women, do me a favor and read this.
This line, in particular, gutted me:
We eat eggs and I tell Y about how when I was 8 years old, I taught my white friend, B (actually called Becky), how to count to 10 in Urdu. How at school the next day she looked at her feet as she shuffled past me, and the white teacher pulled me aside and asked me why I was bullying Becky, because Beckyâs mum said I was bullying Becky, and that maybe it would be best if I didnât sit next to her anymore. She suggested this with the kind of half-arsed, sad-eyed, apologetic shrug that white women perform when it is less of a scene to administer psychological warfare against a brown child than it is to challenge your fellow white woman.
That was my entire childhood.
I remember well the acute shock and confusion of that day. I had been so damn sure Becky and I were having a good time. I felt so guilty, despite my motherâs insistence that Beckyâs mother was a racist bitch and that I had done nothing wrong. I felt frightened of myself and my potential to hurt innocent white girls without even realizing it.
We are taught to walk home with our keys between our fingers for protection from men in the night, but no one tells us how to defend ourselves from the white women who will try to ravage us from the inside out, with a smile, a comment, a betrayal, a vital inaction, a look. How they will choose comfort over effort, how they will read this and think I am talking about someone else, another pardon.
fellow white women, read this. Think about it. We have to step up and we have to do better.
Something Iâve talked about before and find super helpful! Finally in a visual!
This literally changed my life you guys donât understand every time I almost relapse I think of this and I stop Iâm two weeks clean because of this post I love everyone who reblogged this thank you all so much

I fucking love this.
Not only because hell yeah fat girl heroes and awesomely executed art and animation
But also because I know there are hundreds of assholes SEETHING over it
Everything about these pictures is PERFECTION.
I love how there are people who are pissed off about the depiction of *fictional* fat people being active. These arenât even real people, but the very idea of a fat person being active (or you know, living while being fat) and being depicted in a positive light is enough to bother some?Â
Please.
These are beautiful and skilfully done. The ugliness of those others has no place here.Â
You can ask not to be weighed at the doctor's office, if the weighing is triggering or upsetting. I do it all the time.
If my doctor actually needs my weight for something specific, Iâve made the baseline assumption that they will let me know that.Â
Youâd be surprised at how chill almost every office is with letting you skip it.Â
How do you ask, specifically? Iâm sure how you say it is important, some people are more easy to push around & could use advice.
Sure no problem!
I donât ask, I make a statement. I think that may be the key.
So when they steer me towards a scale, I say âI donât want to be weighed.â
If they insist (very rare) I just say âIâd rather not.â And then I donât get on the scale.
If they insist after this (has only happened once), I say âWhat do you need it for?â
If they say they want it to file insurance, I give them a number to put in their computer. There are procedures/medicine that they do actually need your weight for. If thatâs the case, they would certainly tell you so.
You would be surprised how often the nurse does not care.
I think the main key is to stay calm and phrase it not as a question they have to agree to, but as a statement of what you are willing to do.
This is a pretty good tip for setting boundaries in general! And I donât think itâs that some people are more easy to push around, more that some people donât have good modeling of how to set boundaries. I didnât, not for a really long time! I was raised in an abusive home and we werenât allowed to set boundaries. Learning how to do so has been a years long struggle.Â
A simple, oh, no thank you has worked 100% for me.
please respect people who are mentally ill and disabled who cannot work. please respect people who look like theyâre just relaxing all day when really theyâre waging an internal war just to stay alive or fight their pain. please respect people who could not finish school, people who had big plans and could not see them through because of disability. people who look from the outside like theyâve âgiven upâ or âarenât doing anything.â people who are hospitalized repeatedly or permanently, and people who are grown adults who are still dependent on others. please respect disabled and mentally ill people.Â
this is not a polite suggestion, by the way. itâs an angry demand. we are people, and we deserve the same respect as anyone else.
