dumbass

your cat was an honor to see in the window

omitting and deliberately hiding a trans guys transness (usually in order to make discriminating against him easier) is misgendering even if youre saying that hes a man. for a lot of us our transness is just as much of our gender as being a man is

When my partner's ex-best-friend tried to break us up to get with them, one of the first things she did was talk about how worried she was about my partner getting babytrapped. She knew im trans and that we're both ace. It escalated to her trying to sabotage from there and when my partner asked her what her problem with me was she said that she was in her "man-hating phase" mind you I'm not on T and I did not at all pass any of the times she saw me lmao.

please god let chatgpt die out like nfts did. With a fast and graceless fall into irrelevancy

Like to charge, reblog to cast.

This spell has a very low hit ratio, so we need a lot of us to do it.

i get why people don't believe in marriage as a social construct but legally it is the best and easiest way to say "this is who i trust to take care of me when i can't take care of myself" and i'm so glad gay people fought for that right bc when shit gets scary at least i know im in good hands

This is how I convinced my conservative grandma that the gays do also need marriage, actually. My grandad died when I was 4 and I asked her to imagine not being allowed to see him or make decisions for him or be entitled to an inheritance and she got very quiet and conceded the point. Marriage doesn't intrinsically mean anything but as a legal framework it is really, really important

Those who think that wisdom and whimsy are mutually exclusive have neither. It's vitally important to do the right thing when the consequences are dire, and to do a whole bunch of utterly frivolous silly dumb shit when it doesn't matter what you do.

Often, the wise thing must be disguised as silly frivolous dumb shit in order to actually work

Hot take: I don't care if someone "contributes to society" or not. They are a person and still deserve human rights, food, and shelter.

“I don’t put politics in my stories” is the literary equivalent of a cishet guy going “I don’t have pronouns”

always thinking about that Oxford study that found half of adults define "young people hanging around in groups" as "anti-social behaviour"

i think a lot of people internalized the misogynistic idea that “men are rational and women are emotional” and just went “that’s true… but it’s a good thing!” instead of saying “that’s obviously bullshit and we shouldn’t perpetuate this belief in any form”
