it's so disrespectful when lgbtq wikis are like "this term is mostly used by intersex people but perisex people can use it too so don't worry!" just so crystal clear that the page is made by perisex people for perisex people. can you talk about us like we're in the room

So thanks to a friend,I checked and several names of Nigerian tribes are trademarked.

Timbuktu, an outdoor clothing brand based in northern England, filed to trademark the word “Yoruba”.

They are not the only one,hoever.

Some examples of it being registered,or attempted to be registered

I think we should talk about it more,as it is cultural appropriation,stealing people’s culture to use as brand names,collections,or other stuff such as one i saw being used as POLO SHIRT brand name.

no ao3 users, people switching from wattpad to ao3 is not colonization, and it should not be treated as such

Not to be a Mexican killjoy but if you’re white and you make ICE/MAGA/deportation/racist jokes about wattpad users I’m gonna assume all it would take is the right bit of propaganda to make you support ICE irl. What’s funny about ICE to you huh? You’re invoking our biggest fears because you’re inconvenienced. Yes thank you I’d like a side of screaming nightmares with my fanfic.

“It’s like colonization!” Did they kill you? Put you in a camp? No? Find a new word thanks

the funniest possible Live Action Remake that Disney could make, and I would actually watch, is Cars

why the FUCK is keepinventory considered a cheat in bedrock thats so fucking stupid??????????? thats an ACCESSIBILITY FEATURE fuck you

some of you need to stop psychoanalising your kinks and start doing mad scientist shit to them instead.

no more "do I enjoy being tied up because I secretly crave an excuse not to fight back against intimacy because of my mother", that is dumb and useless.

start doing shit like "what do I like about being tied up? what part of it gets me going?" and then once you have isolated the components of the kink that are the main drivers, look for all the other kinks that contain them. mix and match. get creative. experiment.

starting to see the cryptoTERF-y sharks sniffing around for blood in the water and feeling very uncomfortable about it

I'm currently unaware of any public posts trying to campaign towards the tumblr transmasc community, but these people tend to work in private servers and forums not always accessible to the public anyways. but there has been a sharp rise in accounts using TERF rhetoric and coming into transmasc discussions as if they're "one of us". but then they introduce certain red flags that start the alarm bells for me. idk, it's a certain way of speaking and certain beliefs being espoused that make me wary.

I suspect there's a deliberate campaign going on right now. please be cautious of what posts you interact and uncritically agree with at the moment. I think there's an effort being made to recruit people and I don't like what I see. these people do not care about you. they are manipulative as fuck. they practically groom people into their groups, chew them up, and spit them out.

anything encouraging you to view trans women as male or male-adjacent should put you on high alert anyways, but especially in this current rise of global fascism. stressful circumstances are the easiest time for cults to capture new victims. these people prey on that exact thing.

to my transmasc followers: trans women and transfems are not your enemy. they are not lesser than or intellectually naive. you are not an expert on the trans woman/transfem experience just because you have experience as a misogynized subject. you do not know more about what it is like to be a trans woman or transfem than a trans woman/fem herself. you do not necessarily know more about misogyny than a trans woman/fem does, and she does not necessarily know more about misogyny than you do. you have different perspectives on very similar issues. do not try to mentally prop yourself up above that of trans women/fems. you are equals. you are peers. you are not more or less than one another. that means you, too, are fallible and capable of prejudice. do not forget that. do not abandon others just because you feel hurt and unheard.
