Always Aro On Main 🌿

Heard a car horn today that was tuned to a fifth. Fucked up, kinda delightful

unexpected sounds can really shift your whole perception of a space.

i bet it feels good as fuck to escape from the narrative

There's a weird kind of power in being multiple wheelchair users out together. It's normally such an isolating experience and a lot of day to day ableism hinges on that isolation and it's a lot easier to ignore access problems when theres only one person who can't participate, so when theres suddenly TWO of you they don't know how to react.

I just hung out with another wheelchair user for the second time ever and it was a deeply healing experience, there really is power in it. It also makes inaccessibility very obvious but it’s nice to have someone to bitch to that gets it at least. If you thought people stared at you as a single wheelchair user just wait till they see you start multiplying lol people will literally run into walls bc they were too busy staring at you two. My number one goal is to gather a group of wheelchair users then stampede across town doing gods know what like a pack of wild dogs.

"bottom" please consider 🫵 whether the word you are looking for is in fact "submissive" ! because if we decide that taking dick means your personality & character r inherently subservient 😃 we might as well just throw in the towel on the most basic premise of feminism & 🔫 kill ourselves 🎉

[Image ID: Tumblr reply from duckToothCollection reading: being sexually submissive also doesn't mean that your personality and character are inherently subservient but that's probably too advanced for those people /End ID]

something i've noticed that has become really annoying in the past 10 years or so is this fad of what i've been calling, for lack of a better word, "structural whataboutism." it's that thing where, when faced with a concrete, resolvable problem in your community, your answer is to blame it on a vast, unsolvable issue of structural inequality and then throw up your hands. "there's trash all over the ground in this corner of the park" becomes "well, that's where MEN OF COLOR congregate after their 12-HOUR GRAVEYARD SHIFTS and i'm not going to support a CARCERAL SOLUTION to a CAPITALISTIC PROBLEM. WE NEED TO ELIMINATE POVERTY AND THE SUBJUGATION OF THE WORKING CLASS" and it's like okay but sis. someone still has to go pick up the trash. we don't need a carceral solution, we need more trash cans. you're not going to eliminate poverty and the subjugation of the working class and even if ya did, there would still be trash on the ground. how any of this passes for radicalism within their peer groups i simply don't understand. it's radical laziness more than anything else

my general opinion on what people should be "allowed" to portray and what topics they should be "allowed" to explore in fiction is that you can make whatever art with whatever themes you want but i'm also allowed to think the way you handled it was tasteless and should've been done differently. my negative opinion on your handling of sensitive topics is the price of admission for publicly showcasing your work. this is not a pro-censorship stance because i am not The Government

love when a mother asks if they have ever done anything to hurt you. ma'am, you will literally never be ready to have this conversation

what therapy do you think we can afford. what truths do you think you can survive

everyone clearly has a super normal relationship with their mother

i really do believe that the answer to a lot of people's self hatred is not to try and reassure them that they are wonderful and okay and enough, but instead to remind them theyre a completely unremarkable regular ass person who is not the center of the universe or especially important so why would they expect themselves to be some superhuman savior. like there really is a kernel of out of control self importance at the heart of thinking youre an evil lazy piece of shit. because why would you expect you be anything but just like some guy. if you wouldnt expect the guy who works at the vape shop or your mailman or whatever to be able to do something then why would you expect yourself to? youre just some random ass person. its fine

[Image ID: the first image is a drawing of a person with a trans flag worn around their head like a cape. above their head is the label: "artist". behind the artist are several other characters holding up the flag, each labelled "oc". the two characters closest to the front are humanoid, followed by an athropomorphic/furry character with a cat sitting on their shoulders, holding the hand of another character with horns and a tail. at the end of the line is a small pegasus character drawn in the style of 'my little pony'. the second image has the same artist at the front of the line, still wearing the trans flag cape. this time, instead of multiple characters holding up the flag, there are 5 distinct points in the fabric where it rests on top of the characters' hats. the characters are all very short and appear to be bearded, wearing pointed hats almost as tall as themselves. the third image has the artist with the trans flag cape at the front of the line again. behind them is a skeleton character missing an arm, but holding the flag with its available hand. behind the skeleton is a bug-like creature with a humanoid face and very long arms, helping to hold the flag. the third character is a massive skull poking in from out of frame, with the end of the flag draped over its head. /.End ID]

You are not "ruining" anyone's fun for demanding better for yourself, and anyone who says otherwise can go fuck themselves. Any fandom worth being a part of should have no room for racism in it.
