You cannot make a safe space for white people

Not a joke. You cannot make a safe space for white people. If you adhere to white safety and comfort then you will become a white supremacist space. Do not let your space become a nursery for whiteness. You must actively push against whiteness, you need to make sure white people know they are not safe there. You need to punish whiteness when it rears its head, and you need to do it quickly and mercilessly

Show the cracker kindness and they will see it as a means to spread their poison

For every Tolkien, there's a Darwin:

sometimes when two people love each other very much, they don't do anything and nothing happens

i hope mormons have a huge schism that culminates in a civil war in utah and nobody survives and all the crumbl cookies close and all the dirty sodas go off the menus and music gets a little less annoying for a minute

Some of the edgiest queers in the world who constantly talk about romanticizing cannibalism and gore is punk or whatever will turn into the literal pope when confronted with anything realistic having to do with sex like im sorry but people fuck in the park at night sometimes always have and always will and you’re going to have to go about your life without advocating for them to be skinned alive in Alcatraz

And— dare I point out the obvious— the policing of these public areas historically was and still is a huge element of police brutality and discrimination against gay people. Undercover cops frequently patrol areas that are known cruising spots and initiate with men so they can make an arrest when the guy reciprocates. They will also arrest men who are seen looking at each other over the urinals in these spots. Or for peeing while wearing a rainbow wristband.

If you are going to be squeamish about these facts of public life then you should really be aware of how at odds that is with your “punk” “be gay do crime” aesthetics and how your fears are directly implicated in fascist policing of our bodies

Okay, if you are tired then you won't be able to read. There I say it. No one else want to say it. It is strange. If you are tired, if you cannot finish a book that's a given. That's why you need to read...at work. You need to steal your reading time from your employers.

not romantic not platonic but a secret third thing (so devoted the lines blur)

“chocolate guy” is currently shilling for harry potter so i better not see yall post his shit anymore. anyone who engages with that shit especially for money is scorched earth as far as i’m concerned.

Came right up when I searched it, unfortunately

things people online have called me privileged for:

hello allo member of fandom. before you is an aspec character. your challenge is to not put them into a ship which defies, erases, or ignores their aspec identity.

having failed that challenge, your next challenge is to not defend said ship with the phrases ‘aros can still date’, ‘aces can still have sex’, related phrases, or derivatives thereof.

we are NOT bringing 4chan incel terminology to this site, take that "foid" out of your post and go wash your blog out with soap

the memeification of fascism is a proven method of perpetuating and instilling it in other people. Layers of irony will not protect you once you adopt racist, sexist, ableist, transphobic terminology into your lexicon. you'll be acknowledging and nursing the mindsets and connotations borne of those words.

i think everyone would majorly benefit from swapping "im just a girl" with "im literally nice"

I wish all of yalls "love every trans woman you meet" posts actually applied to Black trans women as well.

Oh it does? Then can you stop ignoring us

Can you please stop ignoring us

Can you please stop fucking ignoring us, it's killing us

Please

It's killing us. I don't think you understand it's killing us. Every time you scroll past a Black tgirl getting harassed without doing anything to make her feel less alone. Every time you just accept that a space you're in doesn't have Black tgirls. Every time you don't prioritize Black tgirls even when we are the primary victims of the thing you are talking about (like the ""deplatforming"" of trans girls who rely on mutual aid to survive, which disproportionately targets Black girls). I don't think you understand how much it's fucking killing us when you don't do a thing to help us and make us feel less alone in this transmisogynoirist hellscape. You use us for your arguments, you make one post or reblog about loving Black tgirls to make yourself look good, and then you leave us to die alone and afraid

I'm talking about Black trans women and transfems. I'm not talking about "POC." I'm not talking about "all trans women." I'm not talking about "Black trans people." Stop trying to broaden this post that I specifically made about Black trans girls.

I don't want to hear your white guilt. You are still ignoring us.

If you really need to talk about how guilty you are, how much you suck for being white, how you need to make more of an effort, go make your own post. Several Black trans women have used this post's tags and reblogs to speak about their own experiences being ignored in these spaces. When you fill this blog's reblogs and tags up with your "sorry for being white and sorry for ignoring them," you are covering up and speaking over their experiences in order to try and feel better about yourself. You are still prioritizing yourself in a conversation that is explicitly not about you.

Make your own post if you really, truly want to reflect on how you can be a better ally. Here is not the place for it. Let the dolls speak. Put them on a pedestal like they deserve.

I'm dying. I'm fucking dying.

I try not to overreact but being surrounded in a room of white trans girls who might carelessly take any given action out of annoyance or disinterest with me will kill me

All it takes is a few words, I know all too well how fragile these things are

Everyday the bits of home I managed to hold onto seeps out of me and more until I hear myself unable to speak my own language properly

I search a top to bottom for a face of melanin and see not one

A new white girl gets added to my inner circle and I sigh

I only manage to speak my language for laughs because I can't imagine being taken seriously in it thanks to the Internet

Being racist is always so much more difficult than calling it out

Begging to find someone like me used to get the chains around my neck pulled tighter

Now that those chains have fallen loose I find it's my options themselves that have become restricted

I feel so alone
