(Currently emptying my queue at supersonic speed. If posts are in a random order, that's why.)
I loveee video games, psychology, nature, art, music, politics, queerness, intellectual conversation, reading, science, fruit, empathy, being right... the list will never end if I continue, but you get the point: I love a lot! YOLO! Have fun! Be free!
All life is beautiful (unless you're a conservative; die). Tolerating intolerance makes you complicit, not benevolent. Violence is a question, and sometimes it is the only answer. I hate hate and love love.
I'll mostly be reblogging political posts, art, humor, relatable shit, and fandom stuff for various video games. I might even post my own art, who knows! I'm also a massive yapper and often share my correct opinions on here.

I use the general aroace-spec label because I struggle to define exactly what I feel (or don't feel). I also don't think the distinctions between types of attraction make sense nor do they matter, and I've never experienced what is considered to be romantic/sexual attraction towards any real person before. I center my aromanticism though because romance is the most subjective, so I understand it the least. I do desire an emotionally and physically intimate partnership, but without the cultural rules and expectations applied to traditional relationships. I'm also omni oriented—whatever that means in relation to everything else.
My detachment towards gender works the same way: Both of these concepts are arbitrary and socially constructed, and while I respect the validity of those who resonate with them, I personally require logical understanding to make connections. I've grown to resent gender, but I acknowledge its importance to others. If your internal sense of self aligns with the external concept of gender, who am I to deny you that experience? I guess this could be considered ideologically abolitionist but functionally anarchist. Neurodivergence probably has a lot to do with this and my queerness in general because it affects the way I perceive the world.
I use they/them pronouns exclusively and any/all gendered terms, but I prefer neutral ones if possible. Also, I'm a woman in a sociopolitical way and not a gender one, if that makes sense. As much as I yearn to escape the binary, I'm perceived as a girl, so being female is still a precious part of my identity because it shapes the way I experience life.

Politically, I consider myself to be a general leftist. I'm a socialist who loves freedom, feminism, intersectionality, and atheism. I live in the USA. I'm also an ethical vegan for the animals. If you check my blog, you'll get to know me a bit better, because we'll be here all day if I list all the things I support and oppose, so I'm not doing that. Obviously, I'm against bigotry and support liberation for all oppressed classes. I block freely!!
I consciously distance myself from separatist movements. Most internet "leftists" are insufferable, and their only goals are to be contrarian and achieve moral superiority (which is ironic, as they're some of the most morally deplorable and inconsistent people). Some of you bitches treat rich old men’s words as God and revolution as the Rapture.
Do not let an unattainable utopia be the enemy of progress. Perfection is a myth. It's better to try the wrong way than to never try at all. Mistakes are how we learn. So go to that liberal protest, even if losers online say it’s useless. We must focus on our commonalities instead of our differences because human strength lies in unity. Besides, echo chambers are harmful no matter what the echo sounds like. Exchanging ideas is what fosters growth and innovation. If there’s any true “human nature” apart from our primal survival instincts, it is that we are social creatures who crave connection. Remember that.

Disclaimer for this next segment: I understand that this is not a real issue. The reason I am even saying this is because in chronically online left-wing spaces, some people genuinely act this way, and I want to avoid interacting with that crowd because they are just miserable humans. Yes, it is obviously okay to punch up when making jokes and such. I'm talking about real, violent hatred.
Let me make this very clear: There is absolutely nothing progressive about hating someone for the sole fact of being a member of an uncontrollable demographic group. I am all for the oppressed hating their oppressors, but random people who happen to belong to a class with systemic privilege are not your oppressors. You’re not radical; you’re just a prejudiced asshole. If anything, you’re alienating potential allies. No, I am obviously not saying that oppressed people are responsible or at fault for their oppression, but you’re certainly not helping yourself by being a raging hypocrite. I don’t care if you think that “a true ally would tolerate it” because this is real life and we can’t afford to pick and choose if there’s any hope of liberation, especially when it comes to recruiting those with more power to enact change than us due to their privilege.

Here's the part where I overshare online! Are you excited? You should be. I certainly am. My medical information is hype as fuck.
I've been diagnosed with C-PTSD, ADHD, OCD, and Visual Snow Syndrome. There's more (yay) but you can figure those out yourself. I strongly suspect that I have ASD and am trying to get a professional diagnosis, but medical misogyny is an unfortunately huge obstacle, and I've been misdiagnosed in the past by healthcare providers who know less about their own field than I do. But you best believe I will always persevere and advocate for myself.
Mental illness doesn't have shit on me anymore, though! We UP!!!! Strictly in my healing era and loving life against all odds. If you're struggling, I see you. I have some of the evilest disorders and was genuinely convinced I would never recover but look at where I am now! Survive today so you can thrive tomorrow. I promise you won't regret it. Once you learn how to overcome and manage mental illness, you can do anything. Life is what you make it, my love!

if you say “but aros can still date!” about your aromantic blorbo, I need you to mean it. you can’t make the ship just boring old romance.
your blorbo is still aromantic, so how would that color their relationships? how would that affect their daily life? do they struggle with feeling “greedy” because they can’t love their partner back the way their partner loves them? do they have a hard time with an allo partner because on a fundamental level they don’t quite understand what romance is like, even if they’re experiencing it? on the positive side; what societal boundaries of romance do they cast aside or embrace? how do they navigate a romantic relationship differently than their peers? if it’s an aro4aro partnership, how is it unique? how much does being aro define their relationship vs. just their own personal quirks? is that even a line that can be drawn?
an aro relationship is different from an allo one. I promise, it’s so much more fun to explore what that means and the consequences of that than just “oh aros can date so they’re dating in the same way any allos would”.
aro fandom culture is going 'holy shit i hate this ship so much but if i bitch about it they'll all think im a joyless freak ship basher who hates fun' (in reality i am the only person who is correct in this miserable romance centric world IDGAF IM RIGHT)
The thing is that everyone wants to talk about how "vegans dont care about (whatever plant ag shit)" but never want to address the agricultural destruction of animal agriculture. The vile human rights violations in slaughterhouses. The ways that animal ag workers are often marginalized in multiple ways, taking a job no one wants, a job steeped in death and shit. The fact that a lot of factory farms are in poor areas, are in black neighborhoods, are in rural communities. The ways that the mountains and lakes of shit poison the water, the land, the people. If you want to talk about how humans are affected within our food systems we sure can, but that's not exactly an anti-vegan argument either.

People will say shit like “self diagnosis is rife with bias and influenced by (incorrect) perceptions of conditions based off of online misinformation” as if professional misdiagnosis doesn’t have the exact same problems, as if professional misdiagnosis isn’t a large scale problem with arguably worse consequences.
Plus, when professionals misdiagnose you, unlike with self DX, they can also prescribe you (and even force you into) therapy and/or medication or even inpatient hospitalization that actively makes your symptoms worse (in short or long term) by targeting the wrong issue and potentially even causing new trauma on top of whatever issues you were already dealing with.
What they aren't telling these kids that's really dangerous is that if you do make it all the way to the heart of a Scientology building, the autosave will lock you into entering the Tom Cruise boss fight chamber, and you won't be able to leave until you defeat him in combat.

I knew that the general populations of tumblr hated non-white women with a burning passion only matched by their love of shipping two white guys together but after reading the Kimberlé Crenshaw essay that originally coined "intersectionality" and seeing the way its been bastardized on here legitimately has me seeing red. The way something as simple to understand as, "women who exist on multiple axis of oppression, i.e. black women, often have their unique experiences erased when separate discussions of anti-black racism and misogyny are had" has been warped into "marginalized white people and men face unique discrimination on account of them being [insert marginalized identity] + white/men and if you disagree ummmm haven't you ever heard of intersectionality? *links wikipedia page* checkmate, bigot!"
Like, I am just at a loss for words. I don't know how to explain to these people that marginalized white people and men are not oppressed or neglected on the basis of being white/men, so it's quite silly (and that's being generous) to assert that there is any type of intersection between their marginalized identity and their identity as a white person/man that makes them uniquely oppressed. In fact, in positing such notions you lend credence to fascist concepts such as "anti-white racism" or "anti-male sexism." And when I try to explain this, they will ignore me, hurl misogynistic and racist slurs at me, or most bewildering of all bring up white people and men with additional marginalized identities as a "gotcha!" of... sorts. Either you fundamentally do not understand what I'm trying to explain to you or you're being willfully obtuse, but either way you are twisting the writings of black feminists so that they can fit into your incredibly reactionary worldview and I refuse to engage with you ghouls any further on that basis.
TL;DR: Before you try to lecture anyone, let alone feminists of color or transfeminists (least of all feminists who are both!) on "not understanding what intersectionality is," you should probably read the original essay by Kimberlé Crenshaw first. This may seem like a no-brainer, but alas, it is not.
obviously straight people aren't inherently evil because bio-essentialism is bullshit, but i'm starting to lose hope. tell me why even the most loud and proud "allies" turn homophobic when they get mad. everything is fine, unless of course i actually talk about queerness and homophobia! then i'm annoying and the reason why gays are hated. happy fucking pride to me i guess
You tell a teacher on tiktok...hey you can't speak to kids like that. you can't discriminate and be cruel to disabled children. Sorry that you're stressed but you have no need to scream at a little child, and they act like you are personally cutting funding for the department of education...like girl, your archnemesis is a 1e year old with adhd whose had covid like six times. Quit your job??
