#ariel says things

[vapiddreamscape]

everyone on this website who thinks transgender masculinity is the same thing as cisgender masculinity needs to stop and think for one goddamn second. and also maybe (re)read some jack halberstam and kimberle crenshaw before you continue this conversation. bc to say that transmasculine people only experience transphobia and misogyny as two completely separate, completely siloed experiences is the most brainbroken take i've seen in a long time. and the fact, on this site at least, it is primarily coming from other queers makes my rage and confusion infinitely greater. like,,, you're not an intersectional feminist if this particular intersection continues to fly over your head and you allow it to, because in doing so it preserves a group for you to shit on as whiny, bad queers not shutting up and staying in their place. like y'all know how that sounds right?

reading Nevada by Imogen Binnie for my trans studies seminar and while I've gone back and forth about whether or not I like it personally, the stream of consciousness prose is insightful, witty and so painfully real it resonates even with trans people who don't share the specific experiences of transgender women. It's obvious to me why this is a classic of 21st century trans lit.

(I can also see a ton of its inspiration it likely had on detransition baby by Torrey Peters for better and for worse lol)

@allthatglxtters (Ariel & Aeneas)

Tossing her hair up into a bun, Ariel did her best to quickly make her way over to the closest restaurant from the lab that she interned at so she could both grab some lunch, and spend some time with Aeneas if he was on his shift/lunch. Ever since she had first visited that place, she had found herself enjoying their conversations, and hadn't hesitated to ask the hostess if Aeneas was on his lunch yet as she followed her to her table and sat down, glancing around the room until she spotted him and waved him over with a warm smile. "Long time, no see, stranger." She jokes and tilts her head to the side in wonder. "You off for lunch yet, or still working?"

“they made ariel kill ursula somehow even though she had a mermaid tail” SHE CRAWLED TO THE WHEEL WERE YEH NOT WATCHING

[idiosyncraticrednebula]

I clicked on a video essay about Snow White and off the rip, the guy called Snow White a "passive domestic weirdo with no personality" and quickly figured out he is one of THOSE critics. He also got one about Ariel and you bet your ass he is one of these "gave up her voice for a man", "The Little Mermaid is misogynistic" dipshits. I have yet to watch the video, but I know for a fact he is one of those guys. His videos reek of that smartass, sanctimonious, leftist bullshit just by reading the titles and looking at the thumbnails. This guy also has a video defending Twilight. You can't make this damn shit up.

Stars In My Pocket Like Grains of Sand, Samuel Delany, pg 78 of the Wesleyan edition

Anyway love to see Samuel Delany spitting hard facts about gender and minding ur own damn business back in 1984. This entire novel thus far continues to prove he's truly an American literary treasure

Old man yells at Zamboni time but like how are national reporters STILL presenting the EK65 trade without the context that it got rid of all our bad contracts?? (Except for carters but hey he’s had some good moments! He’s less bad as a fourth liner) “it’s not what they needed” actually it was exactly what we needed — to get rid of all our bad contracts lol. “They needed goaltending” actually our goaltender tandem is one of the best in the league because KD brought in Ned. “ they needed depth” FAIR but like we did try to bring in depth and it just hasn’t clicked yet. Were four pts out from a wild card spot with three games in hand on two of the teams above us and they’re still saying this season is as disaster

It just makes me think their takes are bad on all the teams?? Because they’re so stupid about the pens it’s wild
