if you feel extremely fucked up about sex, for whatever reason, i think being able to talk and write about that is requisite for moving into adulthood. when we are young we find ourselves in positions where it is prohibited to speak about these feelings at all.
Is there a word for "resentment when others are praised for grabbing low hanging fruits when you earlier dismissed the same ideas as remedial, but also when's the last time you finished something & does your therapist think you're self sabotaging? no, you don't have a therapist."
There is nothing you can "sacrifice" to the right - whether it's public sexuality, sex workers, trans people, etc. - that will sell them on your basic humanity. The world they envision and fight for always has been and always will be one without you in it.
basically: i think all women, queers, gender weirdos are going to have some jagged, uncomfortable shit they need to talk through
people, especially in the Fandom Discourse internet, come for artists who talk through these things as having essentially committed an act of violence
YODA: Luke....Luke, you just gotta chill. Chill for a minute. Chill? Give less of a shit. You don't gotta give such a shit all the time. Here. *starts a huge fire* Look at that. That shit's crazy. Being a ghost is fucking great.
I think the regular transparent player phantoms you see in dark souls should have collision so you have to squeeze past each other and there should be a button to say "excuse me" as you do
speech about these feelings will be as messy and dissonant as the feelings themselves unless we are self-censoring to tidy them up. in which case there will always be aspects of our experience which we will never be able to unpack and discuss as part of what it has been to live.
There is no legal attack you can bring against trans existence and participation in society that does not also give the whole of government ammunition to legalize discrimination against gender nonconformance ranging from being gay to "not wearing enough makeup."
The GOP's goal is permanent white supremacist minority rule. They will accept no other outcome. Rich, white Democratic leaders are pre-emptively capitulating to this. It is not a coincidence that the consequences will not be terribly difficult for them, personally.
in so doing they are reasserting, often within nebulously defined online spaces or groups specifically for women and queers, the same prohibition against speaking to these feelings that is enforced by adults, institutions, family when we are small.
my most generous read of the underlying intent is someone coming from a place of trauma who's either hostile to recovery or stuck believing healing to be impossible and from this premise arriving at a worldview in which these works cannot possibly be of legitimate use to anyone.
i love deck building games. securing permits. sourcing lumber. pouring post footers. planning stairs and railings. staining, celebrating, and moving on to the next site.
it is 2018 we need a real English release of Oniisama e... both manga and anime already. i would ask for a new show but the original is already literally God's perfect TV.
anyway, i am thinking about this 'cause some people want haruko ichikawa to be banished from the public sphere for having made some fucked up shit before, but the same applies over and over again as this same situation recurs throughout the entire year, every year.
and to arrive there you have to carry the belief that you have a total understanding of what is helpful or unhelpful to all persons when processing really difficult emotional shit. i'm not sure how you get there but empathy has to fail pretty hard along the way.
this is demanding the world that you interact with to be infantilized and, accordingly, for both the aggressor and others to be subjected to an infantile level of agency in adult life.
less generous read is you're either a fascist or someone adopting concern trolling as a fascistic tactic so you can tear into specific women and queers because you hate them and want them to die.
Stop interrogating the heterosexual family: we have found the root of all childhood sexual trauma and it is in public events which celebrate gay existence.
Baby boomers: the music of the beatles was about youth, it was about energy, it was about sex
The music of the beatles:
🎶oh thank heaven war rationing is over🎶
🎶to-day i will have some meat🎶
when you're a gay kid you learn living means hurting everyone who ever cared about you. when you're a gay kid you learn you're a threat to real kids. you're a spy, a traitor, and an ingrate, greedy enough to take all that is offered while knowing the horror of what you will do.
We wondered why Millennials seemed less interested in financial security, home ownership, and healthcare than past generations. It turns out that they are not interested in Excellence. "We are not interested in Excellence at this time," they said.
i'm obviously more empathetic to the people from the first read but they're still capable of doing harm and are deluded in believing they're actually going to help anyone else, much less themselves.

i just wanna find a place where devilmen can live in peace, go on dates, eat meats, brawl, howl, cum big screaming loads, kiss on the mouth, and eat food.
They need more time to develop new x-men stuff so the next phase of marvel movies will adapt the 1970s comics where Conan and Bilbo Baggins blow up Dracula's Karate Death Star
Tony Stark and Steve Rogers reunite after their epic schism in Civil War. Stark believed that letting a girl eat his ass would be "gay." Steve Rogers maintains that nothing can be "gay" if he's doing it with a girl.
@austin_walker
the citizenry are being threatened with arbitrary political imprisonment for periods of mere years or decades, but these windows will be broken forever.
If you think there's anything you, as a gay, can do to stop the GOP and other right wing orgs from broadly stereotyping gays as predators and pedophiles, you are extremely wrong.
it is a good time to learn how to spot and properly react to a bad faith argument, considering the frequency with which these are used against marginalized people
I'm in a historical reenactment club but we dress up as bloodborne hunters and just run around parrying each other going *bang* *uh-glck* *bang* *uh-glck* *bang* *uh-glck* *bang*
Interviewer: When will you show gameplay for Elden Ring?
Miyazaki: Elden Ring, eh?
M: Seems to be something a lot of people are searching for.
M: But then...what would I know about that? (giggles)

What I see is overwhelming dread that, at least in the US, the extreme right has seized absolute power through a sustained and effective assault on our political systems. Respectability is appeasement borne out of existential terror and it will protect no one.
Ass, Boobs, Feet and Normal were once thought to be compositional elements of the human Soul. we now understand them to be primal forces which give shape to all matter in the universe.
there's not much difference between the effects of a homophobe trying to take down some queer because they don't want them to survive & a queer trying to take down other queers out of resentment that they post good selfies, know cool friends and have more twitter followers
I googled "is it normal make baby eraserhead noise when cum," originally as a joke. But it got me thinking about just what "normal" is, and who gets to define it.
Mario's Son: papa, please open your snuff box.
Mario: you've not done your chores. no snuff.
Mario's Son: papa, don't do this.
Mario: in our labors we grow.
Every cis gay oughta realize the GOP's not gonna eliminate trans people without circling back around to get you, your marriages, your kids, your hospital visitation rights, your workplace protections. Criminalizing transness just comes first in their Hierarchy of Needs.
You're standing on legal quicksand if you think you can argue transness as essentially different from any other gender nonconformance, no matter how slight or commonplace.
shitposting used to feel like the smartest way to exist online and you had to go to a couple specific places to do it while everyone else talked about their feelings like a dumbass
