The Haunt of Hyperfocus

Any anglo LGBTQ publication that publishes clickbait traumaporn about homo/transphobia in non-Western countries, especially Eastern Europe, the Middle East and Africa, without mentioning the role European/American colonizers and capitalists and evangelicals played and continue to play in installing those bigotries is doing de facto imperialism for free

I Wonder A Lot About Being Six. Will I Miss Being Five?

One day youll even be seven! ...but not for a long time

But Maybe Ill Be Eight For A Really Really Really Long Time

I miss you. I miss you so much.

y'all need to watch this this pride month

The Qanon people absolutely won the culture war, by the way, and all of you deeply impressionable yankees helped them win.

And again they didn’t even have to do this, the audience absolutely would have accepted a shot of big bird throwing followed by a shot of cookie catching, but they did it anyway, for love of the game

That is because NO ONE loves the game as much as Muppeteers loves the game and NO ONE in the Muppets love the game as much the Muppets who live down on Sesame Street

billions and billions of WASTED taxpayers money

Not to mention all the dead and maimed-for-life service personel.

two prime examples of why people hate americans 👍

every transfem suicide is a murder. don't forget that

HAPPY BLACK HISTORY MONTH!!! 🎉🎉🎉🎉

the oldest reblogs for this post that i can find are from january 2nd of 2013. this can has been getting kicked around tumblr for almost 13½ years now

And yet somehow this is my first time kicking it!

abused kids reaching late teenage years: it seems I have trauma symptoms, which is odd because nothing traumatic had ever happened to me... sure I don't have many memories of my childhood but I am sure that everything that happened was 100% my fault and also normal and I am supposed to be strong enough to be over that and it was a long time ago so. That's all good. Now. I need to hide these trauma symptoms or my parents will kill me.

maybe "hegemonic women" is overselling it but it would be nice to have a term for the class of women the patriarchy sort of values/protects in comparison to those of us who it just uncomplicatedly wants dead. cis white women are living very different lives from the rest of us and I wanna call them "heg women" or something lol

cause terfism is extraordinarily heg woman behavior. just absolutely reveling in the power of their tears to influence the forces of patriarchy against marginalized women

"if we get rid of assigned sex then how will the state know who to protect?" 🫵 heg woman

like I wanna call them cis women but frankly they seem to be overwhelmingly white too. I can only guess not a lot of racialized women are under any kind of illusion about the patriarchy wanting to protect them. likewise I don't see a lot of disabled women thinking this way either. no, I think heg women by and large are the ones engaging in this kind of weaponization of their perceived fragility. the patriarchy has built them a gilded cage and they guard it fiercely
