i'm nothing without an audience.

“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

buddy if we scrutinized every single thing that had HP shoved in it in some way, we'd basically lose everything that brings us joy to those terrorists!

The man's just doing what's trending, leave him alone.

Someone who isn't a trans woman: Have we considered that boycotting things for being in service to transmisogynist legislation efforts is too hard for ME? The person who matters most in the world,

@diamond-draws okay, well if "what's trending" is materially supporting a genocide, then there are going to be consequences to doing "what's trending", including alienating the people in your audience who are against genocide. it's that simple.

*driving in my smart car* Google glass, show me the nearest e-cig shop! *beeping sound* ugh no! Only show ones that accept Bitcoin!

this was considered an outlandish joke in 2014

related to the conversations about all the corporations that source chocolate from places using slave labor

whenever those posts with people making furniture or sculptures out of chocolate cross my dash, it’s all I can think about. I, of course, don’t know for sure where they get their chocolate, and while the craftsmanship is impressive and interesting to watch in and of itself, I can’t help but think that they are probably working with cheap chocolate because they need such quantities to sculpt/craft with, and if so, it’s almost certainly the product of enslaved people who will never even get to taste chocolate, let alone use it as a disposable craft supply.

the commodity fetishism of food products masks unbelievable atrocity so frequently.

because of the new tv show. and it’s only going to get worse as we get closer to the show’s release. take notice of it — who’s advertising, who’s talking about it, who’s encouraging you to watch it. it’s going to keep happening. there’s going to be more chocolate guys, more nicholas hoults, more kiera knightleys.

take no shit. give rowling an inch and she’ll take a mile. i don’t care how much you like or don’t like someone — if you see them interacting with harry potter positively in ANY way, drop them. unfollow, block, pretend they don’t exist. scorched fucking earth.

and most importantly, be loud about your support for transfems. be transfeminists. be mean about it. fight with people about it. block liberally. download shinigami eyes. read transfeminist theory. provide material and monetary support for dolls who need it, especially the trans women of color in your communities. show them that they’re loved. don’t look away.

literally the whole point of "TMA" and "transmisogynised" etc as terms is because lots of the subjects of transmisogyny do not identify as women when there exists pressure for them to do so in order to access life-saving medical treatment (or even the social technology of Transness)

Oh no, a person making chocolate sculptures for the rich has made a chocolate sculpture of a character from the most famous children's book series in the world!!! How terrible, we should hang him for his crimes against humanity!

Seriously, get real problems if this is what's getting to you.

And also, go outside and touch grass.

there’s nothing i can say that’s more embarrassing than what your blog looks like. this is genuinely sad

HE WHAT

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

You have to understand that I'm not just talking about overtly wanting "white safe spaces," which is something I've seen a lot of people mistaking this for in the tags. This is something that happens even in day-to-day spaces. The catering to white comforts, the coddling of white discomfort, the censoring and siphoning off of racialized people as a result. You need to be able to identify this, call it out, and cultivate safer spaces for racialized people.

Tool Tip: Telling everyone that you “always hated [Asshole] the whole time” or you “knew he was bad news” after that person is discovered to be [Asshole] makes the people in your vicinity annoyed. Making fun of [Asshole]’s appearance makes people in your vicinity think you are stupid.

It's so fucking funny, 4 days with GTA6.

Not even permanent early access to the game, not even like? A free copy? You get 4 days to play a videogame, in exchange for literally your soul

tbc I dont actually believe in souls but I deploy the word very intentionally here because. agreeing to literally give up months to YEARS of your life being a cog in the imperialist death machine that is the united states military industrial complex, for FOUR FUCKING DAYS off to play a video game. i cant think of a more empty, pointless existence.

People have so much disdain for transfem enbies, it's especially baffling coming from other self.proclaimed transfeminists...

When you point out that Rocky Horror is one of the most transmisogynistic films ever made, TMEs will tell you that it isn’t actually- and even if it is, it’s still so important to “the community” as an expression of genderfucky queer affirmation.

They always say “the community”, as if to implicitly exclude trans women from said community entirely without actually saying that. There is The Community and there is Trans Women.

“What about Ladyballers, or Silence of The Lambs, or Ace Ventura? Surely those must be more transmisogynistic than rocky horror.”

Well, I don’t see Scramratz posting about how Buffalo Bill is actually good transmasc representation.

The reason I single out rocky horror is because tme people do often acknowledge the bigotry in the films I’ve mentioned here, but when it comes to rocky horror it’s like they have blinders on. Rocky horror is more transmisogynistic than (that list) because it is basically inescapable for trans women that still want to interact with the broader Queer Community™️.

This is transfeminism!

You are thinking of the film's creator, Richard O'Brien, who infamously said: "I think anybody who decides to take the huge step with a sex change deserves encouragement and a thumbs-up. As long as they’re happy and fulfilled, I applaud them to my very last day. But you can’t ever become a natural woman. I think that’s probably where Rowling is coming from. That’s as far as I’m going to go because people get upset if I have an opinion that doesn’t line up with theirs."

So yeah, the creator of Rocky Horror has views that align with Terf Hitler and beloved children's book author JK Rowling. But hey, it's "Foundational Queer Media"!
