thought they needed a little reminder that they still have far more to lose if they double down on this stupidity.
spread the word, it seems they're... very forgetful about this.
A small collection (feel free to add):
@staff You're not very subtle.
op turned off reblogs and deactivated but i cant let this one fade away
Twitter is bad but I'm realizing that if it dies then there will be zero mainstream social media platforms where NSFW content can be posted without restrictions (reddit doesn't really count, it's a combination forum host/link aggregator), and that really, really scares me with regards to where we are at as a society.
I am reminded of the famous burrito test, which states that "if you cannot get up at 3am and microwave a burrito, you live in an institution". I propose an analogous maxim for community and social spaces, both online and offline; if you cannot post hole for your friends to see, despite your mutual consent, you aren't in an "open social platform", you are being farmed as somebody's product.
Absolutely. The importance of being able to post adult content isn't Everyone Needs Porn Omg (though liking porn is fine and masturbation and sexual fantasy are normal for many humans), it's that that's one of the first ways that powerful people take control of what you hear and see.
You should ALWAYS be skeptical of it.
Also, queer people are often labeled 'adult content' when we're just existing in public. (even on this very site!) So any "you can't show adult content" policy, no matter how innocuously worded, can become a "sweep those icky queers under the rug" policy.
This has been a PSA.
I’m trying not to reblog posts on this blog but I feel that this is important to post here.
on a related note:
And for the people asking “Well if you don’t support it irl then why would you like it in fiction?!”
Because when it’s happening irl real people are suffering and dying and that’s horrible and I’d never want that. But when it’s fiction, when no real people are being hurt or killed, it’s interesting to explore the experience, the effects it may have, and to an extent experience the emotions involved without actually having to experience the horrible thing. You explore scary, dangerous things from a safe distance.
New favorite meme: Old Economy Steven
this speaks to me in ways i didn’t know memes could

ALTWIN !
why win?
The original release date was 9 months after atsv which was a.) impossible to achieve b.) even trying to reach that date would be extremely traumatic for the workers
The "delayed indefinitely" just means it's delayed for an unknown amount of time, due to the strikes. Since the voice actors and other staff are incapable of working on the movie until the strikes are finished
If I may add, the spiderverse movies have been big money makers, so delaying this movie is gonna hurt and make the execs want to cave
Tbh if ur reaction to seeing that kids have an extremely easy to access and hard to detect method of cheating at school isn't "Haha, awesome" then you're a loser and a narc and a lame-o.
This isn't a joke, btw. School is a horrific unending nightmare and anything kids can do to make it just a little easier for themselves is a good thing.
I'm glad I decided to watch this one instead of just thinking I'd already posted it.
cis man with gynecomastia scars: hi
the smartest transphobes in the world: kys tranny
and people wonder why I say that transphobia is a danger to everyone.
I wish I was fucking joking
but sure "we can always tell" crowd telling a cis man to kill himself because they think he's trans. that totally normal behavior. terfs are totally just normal average members of society who want what's best for everyone. they totally aren't genocidal fascists who want to kill everyone who disagrees with them or anyone they simply don't like.
That's the reality of intersexism! Any bodily traits that can be deemed intersex are deemed a medical condition that needs to be dealt with, rather than a natural human variation.
Sex as a binary system is entirely a social construct just as much as gender is. It's fairly normal for people born with penises to develop breast tissue, just as it's normal for people born with vulvas to grow facial hair. But if we called those things normal human variations, we'd have to change how sex and gender are seen entirely in our society. A lot of people would lose a lot of money and control.
the exaggerated threat of “not like other girls” circling back to just vilifying women who don’t conform to femininity. but this time it’s #feminist to ridicule them bc they’re the real misogynists for not liking makeup and pink
"Hmm...I feel like there's something wrong, in an 'are we the baddies?' sense, about what I just wrote, but I can't quite put my finger on it...ah, well; time to post."
Autistic spaces are getting so much more hostile towards people with low empathy, and it sucks
There was a subreddit I really liked, people were chill, and then there was a sudden influx of people making posts like ‘Autistic people have empathy! Saying we don’t makes us seem like monsters! Thats not a symptom!’ And people making posts explaining that no, actually, some of us do have low empathy got attacked and told they were wrong or ableist? And it sucks, because its just so hard to find a place to exist where you can be seen as not evil? I don’t know, it just hurts a lot to be told that
