"All the Trans Women i know are so strong and resilient." Followed by the famous picture of the war plane drawing that recorded bullet holes that planes had when returning from combat. Paradoxically, it is correct to reinforce the plane on the parts without bullet holes because planes shot there must not have made it back. It is used as an example of survivorship bias, suggesting thay Trans women are not uncommonly brave or strong, but only the brave and strong ones have survived and are around today and visible to the speaker.

I dont want to be brave or strong. I just want to be safe.

This is why replacing forums with discord was a bad idea.

People online (like the comments above yours) will see the most school bully coded conservatives possible and then say “we need to bring back bullying”

If we would reach a degree of civilization higher and grander than any yet attained, we should welcome to our ample continent all the nations, kindreds, tongues and peoples, and as fast as they learn our language and comprehend the duties of citizenship, we should incorporate them into the American body politic. The outspread wings of the American eagle are broad enough to shelter all who are likely to come.

I think this is still my favorite Tifa I've ever drawn 💪♥

All hatred to the detrans grift political project but I’m touchy on the very concept of detransitioning being a social evil. Having a complicated journey doesn’t inherently make someone a turncoat & I know too many people who needed to know detransition was not evil to proceed in the first place

playing warcraft alone in the house, barely able to breathe because of how sick you are, and knowing you're going to have to cook for yourself because mom's on the graveyard shift and you haven't seen her in a few days hashtag agere

just remembered the greatest post of all time

having now been exposed to "xenoblade is for gooners" and "liking kingdom hearts makes you a pedophile" I've learned a lot of people (with degrees even!) can't mentally handle anything more aesthetically challenging than a pillow fight

In bold pink text it reads: If we can trust magical girls to save people, we can trust them to beam people they deem worthy of death. SHARE if you're comfortable letting magical girls be the judge, jury, and executioner.

i talked about it before in a vid but the societal pressure to constantly preface your own enjoyment of anything by "oh i know it's has x/y/z problems BUT..." kinda fucking sucks !

this is one of the best posts ever made. fuck you for making me read it

"you're obsessed with it aren't you?"

oh wait just kidding it's because you're black and expressing an opinion in a way that isn't intentionally couched as kindly and performatively for white people as possible huh. found the problem

like as a white girl with undiagnosed ocd and paranoia problems, i spend HOURS taking every post people make as directed at me and freaking out about it, and your angriest posts just make me like "oh, damn, that sucks. i probably need to do better on this topic :((("

where's the "white devilry????"

i think what's most insane about this to me (apart from, i mean, the sheer gall of sending this in the first place,) is that you are not even that mean about it when you're pissed in the first place??

Getting into role-playing in #ffxiv is fun and easy! There's a bunch of resources to help you get inspired and immerse yourself in the game world, such as;
