Something Rlly Fascinating About One Kind Of Response Ive Gotten To Telling Ppl Im Cutting Off My Parents:

something rlly fascinating about one kind of response ive gotten to telling ppl im cutting off my parents: “im sorry its come to that”. sympathetic right? its assumed that something has gone wrong, the relationship has followed a trajectory to a stage that is irretrievable (from where?), and that this stage is something i regret and would rather not have reached. that the parental bond is good, that i would obviously prefer to preserve it, and that my parents have said things or taken actions of late that have necessitated this step. in a recent attempt at contact, my mother asked “if we have done something to upset you”. i could say lots about my relationship to my parents here, but i dont want to miss the wood for the trees. that relationship was formative; i was a child, these are people that raised that child, that taught it how to be a person, as parents are wont. what if my parents have not done anything new? what if nothing has changed in their disposition to me? the problem may be precisely that, that nothing has changed. is that not the promise of the family? the infinite perpetuation of the blessed present? not the exception but the rule. this present is unbearable to me, and so i would like to change myself. im not sorry

this is highly specific but that lil trend of alt characters getting a makeover to look more appropriate socially (clean outfit, modest make up, etc) and appear happier kinda fucking sucks sorry.

As a rule of thumb, don't reblog donation posts or people asking for donations unless they've been vetted and reblogged by Palestinian bloggers. We usually go to lengths to verify this shit because we know scammers have been faking to get people to send them money, using the urgency of our genocide as bait.

It's disgusting this is what we're dealing with, but people are losing money because of some truly evil people out there.

Accounts don't just randomly spring up on tumblr without gofundmes while asking for someone to help them create a campaign. Fuck out of here with that shit.

Every few years there’s a shift in the discourse where someone decides that there’s a group of queers who aren’t “really” queer and for reasons unknown decided that they will focus all of their discourse on trying to discredit that one group.

It used to be “straight passing” bisexuals. Then it was “Theyfabs” and “transtrenders”. Then it was “hetero aces.” Now it’s “transmisogyny-exempt” people. And the thing you find every time is that the people writing angry multi-paragraph screeds about how these “invaders” are “stealing resources” or “silencing people” but they can never actually point to more than one or two examples, at best, of this happening.

But if you repeat something enough with a strong enough conviction in your voice, people will pretty much always be willing to think you’re right, even when you aren’t.

This is the basis of fascism. Exclusionary rhetoric is fascist. No one is immune to this thought process. You have to actively work on avoiding it.

“Did you just call me a fascist because I’m concerned with TME people silencing trans women” i mean, yeah. I did. Fix yourself, and I’ll be willing to talk to you again. I won’t apologize for what I said, mind you. But you can always fix yourself.

I used to think like that. I used to talk about how you “need dysphoria to be trans” and how bi people can “pass as straight” and how trans men “take up our space.” And I was wrong about all that.

There’s enough space in the queer community for everyone. We are always stronger when we understand this. Please, look towards unity rather than division. Fix yourselves.

Being wrong doesn’t make you a bad person. Changing your views is not evidence of weakness. Your friends will still live you if you change. Please.
