Awkward Is My Middle Name

learning today that THE fitgirl is trans...holy shit...everyone say "thank you trans women"

so many people post like they are from the dimension of No Misogyny because the misogyny all around them just registers to them as fine and normal

"we detected a mature post" yeah I'm in my 30s

HES SO HAPPY HE JUST LOVES FANS SO MUCH

To draw upon a semi-recent Discourse topic, if you encounter a claim along the lines that, idk, for example, the imagery and cultural idea of Knights as it exists in pop culture is entrenched with a long history of islamophonia (due to how much of this cultural imaginary comes directly from the narrative of the Crusades) and your response is "I still think knight imagery is cool, I don't enjoy things based on how ideologically correct they are" I'll respect you infinitely more than if your response was "Actually liking knights is leftist because there's nothing more leftist than protecting those weaker than you"

"I don't engage with this thing to have my politics parroted back at me" will always be 1000x more graceful and productive than trying to argue that everything you like is Fundamentally Leftist, Actually.

its kind of fun to uninstall programs you arent using to free up space and see them all beg for their lives
