You know how white people use being scared as a weapon? All those videos of white women saying, "I called the cops because I felt like I was in danger" and how white guys have tiktoks about, "You need at least one semi automatic weapon close at hand at all times to defend your family" kinda shit?

That's what bothers me so much about watching fellow jews acting like just seeing a Palestinian flag or keffiyeh somehow automatically makes a place unsafe.

I mostly see it in US American jews posting about how they feel threatened by a Palestinian flag, or saying that anything referencing not wanting thousands and thousands of Palestinians to die is 'a call for jewish genocide'

Y'all. No. This tells me you have never interacted with a Palestinian or even the Muslim community at large. We diaspora Jews are not the victims here.

Your assimilation has ended on the path of weaponisation of your fears, which is not a great place to be.

If you honestly believe "The only safe place in the world for Jews is Israel" you've bought into someone fearmongering. I'm begging you to investigate why you bought that lie and who is benefiting from you buying it

I love it when women hate men. I love it when women are allowed to vent to each other about how horrible and creepy men are. I love it when women form friendships with and prioritize each other over relationships with men(whether they're attracted to them or not). I love it when women put men dni in their bios and on their nude photos and on posts on their blogs. I love it when women refuse to mollycoddle and accommodate entitled male feelings with "but this doesn't mean I hate all men, I know a few men who are great, I love my father/sons/brothers/uncles/male cousins/guy friends" I love it when women complain about men WITHOUT "not all men" being a disclaimer. I love it when women avoid socializing with/refuse to be around/befriend/get close to men because they know men can't be trusted. I love it when women make "kill all men" jokes. I love it when women offer absolutely no concern or care for men's feelings and if their misandry offends men whatsoever because why should we, men are the oppressor class who have raped and killed and abused us and kept us as subjugated as second-class citizens for millennia, they regularly mistreat us and the women in their own marginalized communities still every single day and make this world so much harder and more awful for us to be in, and if we choose to hate them and not spare them any sympathy then so be it, and I don't just mean "men as a class" either, you can be a woman who doesn't want to have anything to do with any man on an individual basis and completely cuts off men from her personal life too and ykw I will love and fucking support you in that because men deserve absolutely NOTHING from us. If they're so tough and strong then they can handle it just like they can handle being lonely. If you are a woman who hates men, ESPECIALLY IF YOU ARE A LESBIAN AND/OR A TRANS WOMAN, then just know that I love you. I love you, I support you, and you are safe here.

Hello, don't mind me, I just need to vent for a second.

First off, I just wanna say, as an aroace person on the ace-spectrum, feel free to ship Alastor all you want. Ship him with anyone. Have fun with it. Sex repulsed. Non-sex repulsed. Grey-ace. Demisexual. Pure unadulterated smut. Whatever, have at it. I love that shit.

Just please do it without infantilizing ace-aro people.

The amount of art, fics, and takes I've come across that's so patronizing to Alastor and his sexuality. Thing's like Alastor venting to Rosie about his feelings for a character with the caption "Alastor feeling love for the first time." Or Alastor wanting to have sex with a character and having feelings about that, and someone commenting "That's called a boner, sweetheart. That means you like them 🤭"

Like??? Like do ya'll not see how patronizing that sounds? Being ace-aro doesn't mean you don't know your own body. It doesn't mean you don't understand the functions of your body.

It doesn't mean you've never experienced intense emotions. It doesn't mean you've never experienced love before.

And, look, I know these are meant to be jokes. I know. People are joking. I laughed at the first few I came across, too. It's not meant to be harmful or condescending; no one means it that way. But there's been so much with such...bad takes recently, and I don't know about any other ace-spec people (I don't speak for all ace-specs. Hell, there are probably other ace-spec's who don't mind, enjoy it, or are making content like it themselves. I just speak for myself) but GOD it's getting uncomfortable.

Alastor is in his late 30's-early 40's in human years. That is the established age range we have for him. Do you really think that he'd go that long without ever experiencing "love?" He went through puberty just like everyone else, do you think he doesn't understand his own body???

Being asexual, or sex-repulsed, or touch-repulsed doesn't mean you automatically don't explore these parts of yourself. It doesn't mean he's never, once in his life, touched his own dick, or pussy, or whatever genitalia you're giving him. He can still very well be a "virgin" (which in and of itself is a social construct) while also knowing his body and confidently handling any "sexual needs" he has.

Do you really think he doesn't know what a boner is? That in all the years he's been alive and dead (on Earth and in Hell), he wouldn't have experienced these things once? (And you know what? Maybe he hasn't! Perhaps there are ace's out there like that! But you're telling me he doesn't KNOW what that is??? Really???)

Ah, no, it's all because he just hasn't found the right person yet, right? It's not until Lucifer/Angel Dust/Vox, whoever found him, and they gave him these feelings, and oh no, poor Bambi is feeling twitterpated and horny for the first time, isn't that romantic!

Honestly, not really. It just sounds like the same, stupid shit ace-aro people hear from family, friends, and acquaintances about their sexuality. You know, the tried and true: "Oh, you just haven't found the right person yet. You'll want all that eventually, you'll see😊"

Do you not see how frustrating that is?

Look, I am all down for Alastor exploring parts of himself. I want him to navigate different relationships, feel them out, figure out what kind of relationship he wants and what he's okay and not okay with doing. But there are ways to do that without treating him like a little UwU silly baby boy who doesn't know his own body, or his own emotions, or his own relationships with other characters. Like he needs someone to teach him about himself.

How about instead, he finds someone he feels comfortable exploring these elements with? Instead of them "teaching" him how to fuck, or masturbate, or whatever the hell you want to call it, they're giving him the room and safe-space to explore it at his own pace??!!

It comes across as someone who isn't on the ace-spectrum "teaching" an ace-spec character about their own sexuality which puts such a gross taste in my mouth. Or, at least, that's how it comes across to me.

And the thing is, I know people aren't going to stop. I know they're going to keep infantilizing Alastor and his aro-ace identity, and I wasn't originally going to make this post, because you can't control what people do in fandom.

So this is mostly just a post to say: HEY! Hello! Ace-aro person here! I hope you all are having fun and I love that you're exploring Alastor's asexual/aromantic identity! Especially those who may not be in the ace-spectrum themselves, as you're learning about us and our experiences! That's awesome! Can we just do that while also treating Alastor like the adult he is? Can we do that without being infantilizing and patronizing about his sexual identity? Please?"

That's all I really wanted to say. I just needed to get this off my chest instead of letting it fester. This isn't an attack on anyone, this is just the perspective of an Alastor multi-shipper who loves exploring his relationships with other characters (sexually and non-sexually) and deep-diving into the dynamics of the show.

Thanks for reading.

hot take but you all NEED to stop telling people to kill themselves.

yes, even *those* people. i don't care if you're talking to some monster who puts live puppies into a wood chipper for fun, don't say that shit.

because mx. puppychipper isn't gonna be affected by your words.

but you know who might be affected? some innocent third party reading the words you said on a public website.

because telling people to kill themselves says "suicide is a punishment for being a bad person. bad people, upon realizing they're bad, should simply commit suicide instead of working to atone for their actions."

and that is NOT a message you wanna be normalizing to anyone, but ESPECIALLY people with depression (who, let's be real, make up a higher than average chunk of this site's userbase). whose mental illness is already telling them that 1: they're an inherently terrible worthless person no matter what they do 2: death is an appealing option.

is reading "kill yourself" once or twice gonna make them do it? nah, probably not. but reading it multiple times a day every day is gonna make their mental health worse. it's probably not good for your mental health to be saying that kind of thing, either.

just knock that shit off. the world is already so hostile to people with mental illness, and managing mental illness and unlearning unhealthy thought patterns is already so difficult. you don't need to be out here making it worse.

tf you mean lbh only fell for sqq because he was the first one to show him kindness 😭😭😭 were that the case pidw would've had lbh/nyy endgame what book were YOU 🫵 reading

[carriesthewind]

Still on my bullshit:

One thing I want to emphasize is that topics related to the scaremongering conspiracy video are very real, very serious concerns, but those concerns are around price-gouging (not even mentioned in the video) and privacy (but in a realistic way, not in a "digital ads are secretly being installed to track your eye movements to determine optimum pleasure-inducing packaging kind of way). This article is a good summary:

And the letter from Warren and Casey* is actually focused on these concerns.

*The links actually work in this version, hurray!

In this way, I think the video is a really good example of one of the dangerous of scaremongering conspiracy misinformation. Not only does it help promote and ingrain conspiracist ways of thinking, it distracts from real problems. It promotes the idea that we are already living in a dystopian reality concocted by powerful intentional actors who do not make mistakes. Unstated is the assumption that these actors have either entirely captured the institutions of goverment or the goverment is working with them (the goverment granted them a patent to do this nefarious thing!), and so the only way to resist is to take individual actions that don't actually solve - or even really address - the problem. And even if you try to take action based on the video, you're going to be focused on the wrong problem. Compare the kind of things the video is focused on - the existence of cameras in stores (lol good luck trying to get those out), facial expression analysis, sales of personal data to third parties - and compare them to the specific grounded questions in Warren and Casey's letter.

Because think about the call to action at the end of the video - you should destroy individual cameras in the stores with nail polish remover or nail polish. The doesn't actually do anything to address either the conspiracy problem in the video or the real problem (great, you destroyed a couple cameras, that sure showed them). Incidentally, it also potentially puts you at great personal risk for criminal prosecution for destruction of property. Which can be an intentional and powerful strategy of resistance, especially when instituted with intentionality - but that's not really what the video is promoting, is it? There's no next step, no pathway for change. It's effectively the same as a video about stranger-danger kidnappings telling you at the end that ladies, this is always why you have bear mace/pepper spray/a gun in your back pocket, ready to shoot. You don't leave either informed or empowered - just scared and reactive.

gentle and friendly reminder that tag/content blacklists and the block feature are valuable and useful tools for, say, not seeing content of stuff you don't like.

See a ship or media you just don't want to see more of? put it on the blacklist. someone making content you don't like and not tagging it to appear on blacklists? block them.

I promise you this will make you experience better rather than fuming about seeing it in the first place. even if it's smth you think is abhorred, just blacklist a tag or block the person and move on. No matter how many times you rage and talk about it, people are gonna keep making that stuff you don't like; save your energy and your mental wellbeing and just. blacklist and block.

(note: this is talking about fandom stuff, like ships or fandoms or hell even aus or character interpretations. people are here to have fun and it's all fictional, don't waste your energy and mind on things that aren't even real to begin with, I promise you'll feel better)

[jewishbarbies]

this women's day i'm thinking about all the women and girls who were tortured and killed for the crime of being jewish within reach of hamas, those that survived but were taken hostage to continue being tortured, every single woman who will never get true justice for what was done to them. the infants that will never see adulthood.

and i'm thinking about all the western women who cheered.

[bougiebutchbinch]

I am once again asking (begging) people not to send me bottom!logan content.... c'mon..... please.......... this is getting a bit silly now :/

[pigeonclaw]

I haven't felt very motivated to draw lately (what chronic fatigue does to a guy 😔) but I have cracked open my sketchbook a few times. Mostly to doodle TBC.

[itsgreeb]

some of yall have never had your views challenged in an unfriendly yet justified way

some of y'all don't know that addiction is a mental illness

some of y'all have never had to interact with an actually mentally ill person who is still struggling with making healthier choices

some of y'all are sexist

some of y'all do not understand the intricacies of abusive relationships

some of y'all do not fundamentally understand that change takes not just time but lots of patience too

some of y'all haven't had to deal with true grief yet

some of y'all do not get that chronic illness is disabling and disorienting and frustrating

some of y'all do not get that neurodivergence is disabling and disorienting and frustrating

some of y'all can't handle the fact that people are allowed to voice their opinions in a strong and impolite way regardless of of who they're talking to

some of y'all have never needed to question authority in your privileged lives

some of y'all are transphobic, biphobic, polyphobic, queerphobic in general

some of y'all have never had to consider the little guys, nor the sacrifices attached to grand leaders and their grand plans

some of y'all clearly haven't learnt that it's not about you all the time

some of y'all cannot handle the concept of nuance

some of y'all just don't have any empathy i'm convinced

and all of us forget to take a step back once in a while and remember that this is a Fictional Story full of Fictional Problems. so here's a reminder.

[danieyells]

in a strong Leo mood because I'm tired of seeing tagged hate shit for him, so I went ahead and added the rest of Leo's home screen voice lines to his post, including the Japanese text! And, of course, I updated the masterlist.

additional tag for @mayoigotokurousagi who requested Leo in the first place.

I'm going to become extremely anti-AI but for digital art

"You don't even mix your own colors? The computer just generates whatever color you want? Don't call yourself an artist if you aren't going to put in the work to make your own colors."

"So you click this button and it automatically fills in the whole area with color? Look at this painting and how the brushstrokes are layered so carefully to create shading and texture. A bucket tool can't replicate the human intention that goes into a real painting."

"I can't believe the internet is so flooded with all this digital "art". You can't even find a real oil painting or a pencil sketch anymore, it's just all this computer-made bullshit that people just threw together in Procreate"

"You drew a picture of SOMEONE ELSE'S character? That is LITERAL THEFT! They didn't consent to you using their art like this! I can't wait for the government to crack down on using other people's IP, it's absolutely disgusting that you can just steal someone else's work like this. Only a talentless techbro hack would think that plagiarizing someone else's character could be art."

[zykamiliah]

sj stannies be inventing brand new discourse topics that i, as a person who browses the svsss tag daily and have read a fair amount of fics since 2019, have never ever seen addressed

from my top favorite (sarcasm):

-sy fans somehow treating him like a Angel who can do no wrong (when sy enjoyers love making fun of him and frankly acknowledge he isn't perfect but a flawed human who is kind and empathetic despite those flaws)

-the assumption that because one defends sy, yqy etc etc etc it means we hate sj

-the assumption that because we acknowledge sj's flaws and the narrative intent behind his story that means we don't like him as a character

-similarly, they assume that liking bingge means we don't know he's a a cruel tyrant, a manipulator, liar and that he has raped women in the pidw timeline, and that he almost raped sy!sqq

-that because we like lbh, both versions, we don't acknowledge they are both flawed

-thay somehow one type of abuse is superior to another, thus one type of suffering is worse than another, and that kind of trauma justifies a character's actions

-thay sy only acted out of self-preservation and he's in fact a selfish asshole who only cares about lbh................................................ (speechless, i am, every time i read this kind of takes)

like, idk man, maybe they need to reread the novel???? although to be frank i just think this is purity culture eating at their brains to the point reading comprehension flies over their head like a very loud parrot
