It’s Easter, so, time to post the most cis Ranma picture.

the thought of travis and van exchanging clothes like the rest of the girls share their more feminine clothes is somehow very heartwarming to me

the most gut-wrenching viscerally upsetting line in the entire show is literally just van’s immediate, desperate, “i’m gonna try my mom!” not an emergency line, not even panic-dialing a 911 that wouldn’t work anyways. she’s a kid. she wants to call her mom.

the late pope was really liberal for pope standards and that was pretty cool and the next one will probably be less chill which is going to suck for Catholics so my sympathies for that.

but I think we can all admit that dying during the highest holiday of the Christian calendar after meeting an insufferable fascist catholic convert is such a power move. and a little funny. a guy so insufferable the leader of his church went "no i can't deal with this guy for four years".

I'd like to remember Pope Francis as the Pope who called a ton of priests faggots, apologized for it, then called them all faggots again

a woman holding her boob should be considered a neutral pensive gesture like when a man scratches his beard

Shoutout to my dad who accidentally moved into an up and coming black lgbt neighborhood and was very disappointed to learn that all of his “new friends” weren’t actually interested in how to use iNaturalist or where he saw coyotes on his walks 😔🙏🏻

I DESPERATELY needed someone to tell me this as I grew up in leftist online spaces. So now I am going to tell YOU:

If you

Check what you sent over and over to make sure you didn’t say a slur instead of “hello how are you”

Fear that someone will find you thinking not-leftist-enough thoughts and will call you out and ruin you

Feel you have to make your intentions clear and over-explain your actions

Find yourself consistently resisting the urge to engage in reassurance-seeking WRT being a good enough ally to marginalized people

Stay up late endlessly debating political ethics in your head

Have a set of actions that you take after discovering you made a morally wrong decision so that you can atone, which you rely on for reassurance that you are not a bad person

Would rather not make a decision at all than make a decision that is the lesser of two evils, but is not morally pure

then I am gently, but firmly, requesting that you look into moral scrupulosity OCD.

I fucking hate that the general response to RFK Jr's eugenist take on autistic people is "autistic people do pay taxes, autistic people do work, autistic people do date!"

Some autistic people don't and that shouldn't make them less worthy of life. Some autistic people do need constant help and support and that shouldn't make them less worthy of life.

Once again we're falling in the right wing trap of :

They make a hateful, fascist statement

Instead of focusing on the fact that it is hateful and fascist we try to show them that they are factually wrong

We throw our own allies and the most vulnerable of us under the bus in the process

We legitimise an only slightly less hateful, fascist view as we go

They have completed their goal of making us accept the still hateful, fascist second version, hurrah. What a victory.

Right now what we're getting to with that is that autistic people who can work and pay taxes are okay, and the others aren't. Fuck this shit.

Same thing happens with the people who are being deported ("they have a visa!", "they didn't even have a criminal record!" -> even if they didn't have a visa, even if they did have a criminal record, deporting them and detaining them in what's essentially a concentration camp wouldn't be okay, you absolute tools of fascism.)

Yellowjackets 3x07 spoilers

I gotta say, I just loved how Shauna defaulted to following Nat's commands the moment shit hit the fan.

It's as if deep down she knows she can't be trusted to lead, but still wants to make all the important decisions when the others are around.
