#No one's being disrespectful in the notes

[indecisiveavocado]

Can we also talk about how fucking disrespectful this is to autistic people? I am autistic and fun fact I have never accidentally sieg heiled! Not once! It's not that hard!

The implications of that are disgusting and awful and shockingly just because we're autistic that doesn't mean we go around randomly sieg heiling, like what the fuck, that is not what autism is? Yes social cues are hard but I'm talking like phrasing of a thank-you note or interviews or meaningless social formalities and things like that, not fucking sieg heiling!

It is SO FUCKING ANNOYING that elon is by far the most famous autistic person alive, especially given how misunderstood autism is. To be clear, Elon is probably not an asshole because he's autistic(I'd wager it's the whole 'being raised by people who profited off apartheid' thing) and even if he was that wouldn't say anything about autistic people; if you've met one person with autism, you've met one person with autism.

“Elon didn’t mean to sieg heil, he’s just autistic”

Do you guys remember when Kanye said he was gonna go “death con” on all the Jews? Do you remember how his apologists said he was just off his bipolar meds? Do you remember that he doubled down, said he didn’t actually have bipolar, and he had been misdiagnosed by a Jew doctor? Do you remember he proceeded to meet with prominent white supremacists and told infowars he was a Nazi who loved Hitler?

Nobody ever believes the Jews the first time, even though our culture has spent literally thousands of years learning the warning signs. We know what we’re looking at. It’s two consecutive Nazi salutes on a white supremacist’s inauguration day. You can downplay it all you want, but this coal mine’s canary isn’t coming back to life.

Tethers: The Unapologetic Irony of Disrespect

(Now with a Checklist for the Musty and Misguided)

How You Gonna Flee Here and Then Act Like You’re Better Than Us?

Let’s be crystal clear: Black Americans didn’t start this. For centuries, we’ve been the most accepting, open-armed culture on this planet. We birthed the style, the swag, the music (you’re welcome for hip-hop), and the very civil rights that let tethers and their parents even think about coming to America.

But some of y’all tethers—or worse, tether apologists—got bold. Instead of gratitude, you came over here with funky pits, goat-scented baggage, and disrespect for the very people who built the damn table you’re eating at.

Now, you’re out here crying “divisiveness” when we clap back? In the words of Ice Cube’s Doughboy: "Bitch, shut up, ain't nobody talking to you."

The Tether Humility Checklist

A Mandatory Guide for Musty Apologists Before You Embarrass Yourself

If you’re feeling bold enough to argue with Black Americans about their own history, culture, or struggles, please complete the following checklist first. It’s not just for your sake—it’s for the sake of everyone who might witness your misguided attempt at debate.

☑️ 1. Did Your Parents Flee Their Home Country?

Yes ☐ No ☐ If you checked “Yes,” congratulations—you’ve confirmed that your parents literally ran away while Black Americans stayed and built. Your argument is already on thin ice.

☑️ 2. Do You Call Black Americans “Immigrants”?

Yes ☐ No ☐ Fact check: Black Americans didn’t immigrate; they were enslaved. If you checked “Yes,” please take a remedial history class and kindly shut up until further notice.

☑️ 3. Do You Compare Your Hustle to Ours?

Yes ☐ No ☐ If you’re out here saying things like, “My parents came here with nothing and now we’re thriving!” without acknowledging the systemic oppression Black Americans endured for centuries, your comparison is invalid. Take a seat.

☑️ 4. Do You Think Criticism Is “Divisive”?

Yes ☐ No ☐ Calling out disrespect isn’t divisive—the disrespect itself is. If you checked “Yes,” consider whether your silence would be a better contribution to unity.

☑️ 5. Can You Dance, Rap, or Dress Without Imitating Black Americans?

Yes ☐ No ☐ If your swag, slang, or music taste owes any debt to Black American culture, maybe reflect on who you’re disrespecting before you start running your mouth.

Important Note: If you checked “Yes” for ANY of the above, do yourself a favor and sit this one out. You’re not prepared for the intellectual smoke.

The Division Argument: A Convenient Cop-Out

Whenever Black Americans defend ourselves, someone inevitably cries, “This is just sowing division!” To which we say:

Division started when tethers showed up disrespecting us.

If you’re so worried about unity, how about you direct that energy toward tethers who badmouth Black Americans while reaping the benefits of our struggle?

Black Americans have always been overly accepting. We let everyone sit at the table, learn the dances, wear the swag, and sing the songs. But what we won’t tolerate is being disrespected in our own house by people who needed our civil rights victories just to walk through the door.

Embarrassing Stats to Back This Up

For any tether apologist feeling brave, here are some hard truths to sit with:

Immigrant Earnings: According to Pew Research, many Black immigrants earn less than Black Americans despite their “hard work” narrative. So much for running circles around us.

Cultural Impact: Black Americans contribute over $1.7 trillion annually to the U.S. economy—and that doesn’t include the priceless cultural swag (hip-hop, fashion, slang) everyone else loves to steal.

Who Fought for Rights? Black Americans fought for civil rights while tethers’ parents were still debating whether to hop on a plane. Those rights protect everyone, yet tethers love acting like we didn’t pave the way.

Acceptance Rates: Studies show Black Americans are among the most inclusive ethnic groups in America, often supporting immigrant causes more than immigrants support ours. Y’all came here for opportunity—we made that opportunity possible.

Final Thoughts

If you’re a tether or tether apologist feeling attacked right now, maybe reflect on why. Black Americans aren’t sowing division—we’re responding to disrespect. If you’re here enjoying the fruits of our labor, the least you can do is show some gratitude and stop running your musky mouth.

You know, I think one of the coolest things about Trimax and how it ends is how unique the experience is to everyone, and how valid that is. I'm sick as a dog and hella groggy, so forgive me if I'm misremembering or my phrasing is weird, but I remember reading an interview where Nightow was asked whether Knives was alive or dead at the end of the manga. And he did give an answer, but he specified that was just his intention, and that everyone should walk away with their own opinion (something along those lines, I'm paraphrasing and cannot remember the source).

Nightow has also said that his intention with the ending was for it to be hopeful, but he would also later say that he was so incredibly burnt out and exhausted and that he would change some things if he could. I think you can read all of that in his work. So for me, my first (and thus-far only) readthrough left me with a distinct feeling of tragedy, exhaustion, and of cycles repeating. But everyone who walked away feeling hopeful and like the future is bright and infinite is also correct. And it really speaks to the deeply human nature of Trigun, and the way that its story speaks to us and our unique experiences and what life has taught us, I think. The song of humanity sings in all of us in all different ways.

Idk man, I need to sleep but I just think Trigun is neat.

Wild and revolutionary concept: maybe don't treat converts like trash just because they're converts? And also don't ask someone if they're a convert in a public setting?

being a younger lesbian in your 20s and 30s is actually insane rn because not only is our dating pool small enough as it is (especially for lesbians who only want to date other lesbians) but then we’re also having to contend with the fact that half of the lesbians around our age are going by they/them or they/he pronouns and like kudos to y’all who can maintain relationships (hell, even friendships) with people who require you to deny base reality every time you’re around them or even reference to them when they’re not even in the room but like. i can’t pretend to indulge in it, like not even for a little bit. and i really do feel like this is actually a real issue and has so many implications for the lesbian community as a whole and how it really is disappearing right before our eyes, all in just a matter of a few years etc but all that is to say! we need to free young lesbians from the shackles that is gender now before i go completely insane and end up single forever

i feel like one of the worst people in the world right now. but at least my semester is over

mum and i were almost not able to buy our house because a real estate lawyer heard us casually say i'm autistic and alarm bells went off in her head, because she believed that meant i wasn't mentally capable of understanding what i was signing up for

I know we’ve all talked this point to death but it’s wild to me that the plan is 7 books. Like, a 7 book series is a LOT for plot heavy novel series with just one linear path instead of a massive undertaking for an if. I expect that from a dense fantasy or sci fi series. Something that has a lot of plot to develop and explore. But a romance??

Having plot as a means to an end for romance tropes is fine. I don’t think anyone goes into a romance series for plot, they go for character and dynamics and tropes. But then how do u justify 7 books…

[beloveliness]

finished it like 3 minutes ago and immediately see this on my dash lol

it is really good. if you got a few hours to kill and dont really listen to rap or something, check this out and then check out other fd videos cause he's a well-known essayist for a reason and he's got like a bazillion other (not often as long) videos, many of which are again on u.s. black culture or hip hop. i think shawncee also is great to watch - not an essayist, a streamer (with edited youtube uploads) but he's still analytical and opinionated so if you want to watch live reaction from mid-beef or actually listen to the disses, i suggest also watching his content from when they were coming out. it was The rap battle of the century and i think fd's video adequately puts that in perspective which i feel like i havent seen from some other public commentary. i really like that he actually touched on differences between beefs then and now. also fd did a stream with hasanabi and theneedledrop/anthony fantano (longtime youtube music reviewer) on hasan's channel a bit ago so you know. also look up that time drake was popping out just to show a coconut cookie recipe, very alarming behaviour. WE NEED NEW TORONTO REP DAMN IT

listen. i honestly do try my best to not be bitchy about stuff. but if you not-joking-joked that you wanted to watch a video essay from hbomb on the kendrick-drake rap beef. i think that you are obligated to watch fd signifier's 3 hour video essay. i KNOW the watch time is not the issue.

i think the entire silksong/switch 2 rumor thing bc of william's tweet is really really funny but i was afraid it would make people get pissed at team cherry again. taking a peek into the replies to leth literally just saying the game is being worked on, and yeah they already are. i forgot how much of a toxic cesspool twitter is
