jinx

I know Thalia was confused as fuck in that last scene because she was just hugging her sister and asking where Luke is and for some reason this boy she's never met is looking at her like she punched his grandma

there's a fine line between being wary of manipulation and becoming completely paranoid because you get very close to the realisation that pretty much all human interaction involves doing things we hope will lead to a result we like

this post is about a lot of things. it's about my ex saying it was manipulative to talk to them in a cute voice because that influenced their emotions. it's also about someone on this webbed site saying being funny is "engagement farming". like yeah every single conversation you have is going to be "manipulative" if your standard for that is "did something with the goal of eliciting a response". if that bothers you go live in a hut in the forest and speak only to the trees. I'll be over here manipulating my friends into being happy by giving them compliments

I find the "I'm bi but I don't date women because I'm scared of how they're just so perfect and pretty 😖" and "I'm bi and I love all women and four types of men but I'm stuck with my boyfriend ugh 🙄" jokes to be annoying but the very second some biphobic misogynist tries to say shit suddenly I'm these girls' biggest fan

i have another bomb to throw, girls who hated pink and femininity in childhood were not experiencing internalized misogyny; it was a rejection of the conditioning pushed on us from birth which we never felt passion for and grew resentful towards because of adults’ insistence on us following the rules of being a girl. when you hit middle-high school and get more say in how you look it feels fucking incredible to reject and be openly hostile to the things you were forced to embrace your whole life. you people just don’t know what internalized misogyny is and tumblr choice feminism lied to you

Like please it’s not lesbophobia and misogyny to call out Chappell roan dear GOD 😭

I’m talking about calling her out on building her identity based off being political (doing drag, being LGBTQ+, supporting drag queens, trans artists etc etc) and then when people look to her for that support she stays silent? She HEAVILY criticized the Biden Harris administration (which is valid! No political party should be free from criticism) but when the trump administration who’s is heavily targeting the rights of trans women and the LGBTQ community in general she’s silent?? How is that okay? You can’t build your brand on being political (drag and being a lesbian are inherently political) and then speak up for these rights and then go radio silent all of a sudden?? Where’s all that criticism for the Trump administration?? The same criticism she had against the Biden administration??

“this celebrity lesbian with roots in gay culture isn’t doing enough politically in my opinion because everyone knows that being a lesbian inherently means you have to stop what you’re doing to become an activist” no matter what she does it’s never gonna be enough for you cause you clearly just want to be mad at her. wonder why

when you grew up as a lonely uncool girl it will never stop haunting you by the way. you will meet a cool person at a bar or the train station or at a friend's party and you can wear your most stylish outfit and striking eye makeup and you will swear that they can see through all of the facade and see the lonely terribly insecure teenage girl you used to be who desperately wanted to connect and you will swear that they know that there is like an insurmountable gap between you. this will happen forever
