@neonbaebae Newsflash: the queer community is the community of people who identify with queer. If someone doesn’t identify as queer, they’re not included in that statement.

And it’s not like “the gay community” or “the lgbt community” are inclusive statements either. Plenty of people are uncomfortable with the “gay community” because that’s the slur they had used against them when they were bullied. Plenty of people have spoken about this. Nobody is walking around saying “omg don’t say g*y it’s a slur sweety you might trigger someone.” (Btw I’m included in the group of people uncomfortable with “gay” as an umbrella term, because of bullying and a variety of other reasons.) The acronym isn’t great either. I mean it takes about two seconds to find a post where someone is getting screamed at because they included “too many” letters that “don’t actually belong” or whatever bullshit, or because the letters were in the wrong order, or what have you. And at the end of the day “lgbt” is NOT ENOUGH. It’s wildly unrepresentative of a LARGE portion of the community. I won’t call it the gay community because “gay” was used to bully, harass and exclude both me and my partner by straight people AND other people with marginalized sexual and gender identities. And I refuse to actively exclude anyone by using an acronym that’s not representative of the community. So tell me why I should just accept terms for a community that make me uncomfortable, but anti queer folks shouldn’t.

Also, you just sound deliberately obtuse when you say “that’s how anybody could have interpreted it.” I specifically said “people who identify with” I said nothing about the community as a whole. And nobody is walking around saying “the dyke community” of “the fag community.” That’s not what the discourse is about. This post is CLEARLY about personal identities, you just saw “queer” and got mad because someone is using a word for themself that you don’t like.

Last, I find it REALLY interesting that you got on my case about using queer without addressing the fact that the whole rhetoric comes for terf/radfem/exclusionary rhetoric. Makes it seem like your ok with the group of people who perpetuate intracommunity harassment and aggression, but not the part of the community that just wants to be LEFT THE FUCK ALONE ABOUT A WORD THEY USE TO PERSONALLY IDENTIFY THEMSELSVES.

I actually hate people who will openly identify with/use a slur (dyke, fag, etc) and then get on their high horse about “queer”

Like stfu that shit is straight out of terf, radfem, truscum and exclusionist rhetoric. It’s all about shunning people who don’t fit neatly into some box YOU decided on, and the resurgence of this discourse (which is almost nonexistent in offline queer spaces) springs out of a movement started by radfems ages ago, and it puts the power of an ugly word back into the hands of our oppressors.

If you think you have the right to reclaim a messy, complicated word without people censoring you, DONT YOU DARE COME DOWN ON SOMEONE ELSE FOR THE SAME THING

Hey! I just finished watching she-ra for the first time, and I was wondering if you could recommend some blogs and/or fic writers to me?

first off, congrats. i hope you enjoy the extreme gayness that has now entered your life. just don't let it consume you.

second, oooooo boy do i have a bunch. sorry this list took me forever to compile. i literally sat on this for like a month and compiling the list took me maybe 30 minutes 🗿

tumblr users

radsity - art, really fucking pretty art

@swearyshera - she-ra abridged. its good. you probably already follow them.

@turtle-ly - good shitposts. has a lot of content and has 300+ shitposts stocked up, so expect content for a long time

kaereth - art, lots of older content but still doing shera stuff occasionally from kofis

miledibuja - art, comics, standalones, my profile pic :)

@catradoratwtgoodies - posts good content from twitter and or reblogs spop stuff

@ao3feed-catradora - literally just a bot that posts new fics from ao3 under the catradora tag. but ive found a lot of fics from it so its here

@incorrect-quotes-from-she-ra - i am gonna plug my best friend on tumblr here, leo, who has amassed a large amount of funny incorrect quotes for our favorite gang.

wingedcorgi - pretty artstyle and has published several great post/pre/during-canon fics

musenilla - has branched out to other content but still makes spop stuff, great comics and standalones with a cute art style

@nonbinarychaoticstupid - reblogs a shit ton of spop stuff. among other content. but they are still a good source of spop content. lol.

ao3 writers

laurenjauregui - wrote the love simon au. funny, well written, great fics and usually releases chapters consistently. currently releasing scream au

ceruleanstorm - their world building, characterization, and writing style is AMAZING! the upper west side series is 400k+ words and i feel like its half that.

petty_labelle - its always a good day when a new petty labelle fic drops. some of the funniest catradora stories ive ever read

driluth - has written several fics based on show aus

lesbianxcatra - has a bunch of fics under their belt, of varying content and age ratings

sevansevan - really good au long form fics, writes other ships as well like glimbow

DandyVela - break my leg is such a drama i love it.

chellethewriter - has multiple great fics.

ehj - prolific on twitter. also very good short fics, both au and in canon

n7punk - lots of variety when it comes to fics. very high quality writing.

i was going to include twitter users. but i am too lazy to go through those. probably the most important user ive seen in the fandom is el, @ okokcooool, their art is very prolific, pretty, and well followed for good reason. literally their art gives half the fandom life. if u have it, you can check my twitter out @ abssimpforcatra and take a look through my following list for some people to follow

hope this list is good! tried to get the best of what i could remember. a lot of the tumblr users are on twitter, and a lot of the ao3 writters can be found on tumblr/twitter at similar names. like petty_labelle can be found on twit @ pettiestlabelle. their socials will be in fic notes a lot. 🤷‍♂️
