The card has a phone number in the upper left corner, a business name in the upper right, and a picrew icon in the center. The text under the picrew icon reads

‘Patrick BATEMAN Vice President He/They

DO NOT INTERACT IF Anti-MOGAI, Exclusionist/REG, Against Mspec Lesbians/Gays, Use the term ‘little’ as a singlet, Anti-neo/noun/emoji pronouns

ok, im just getting really sick of this kind of shit.

i had to remake my blog a few years back - drop the old one and start over to get away from aphobic bullshit that got so bad it was impacting my mental health. i’ve had this blog now for a few years, and have seen the tides change again and again as people who would never be caught dead interacting with their local queer community campaigned against complete non-issues while roleplaying being the popular girls in a 00s teen sitcom. frankly, im just sick of it.

i’m sick of seeing aphobia treated like a joke, of seeing ‘exclusionist’ treated like a punchline. i’m sick of mspec identities being told to simplify ourselves, stop using language we’ve used for years (and historically that our communities have used for decades), i’m sick of seeing neo pronouns and use of multiple pronouns treated like a fucking joke, i’m sick of seeing DID being treated like a fucking joke, i’m sick of the lives, struggles, and identities of marginalized people being a fucking joke to you losers.

‘oh you just don’t get the joke-’ i completely get the joke. you want to say that patrick bateman - a character that is meant to be a satirical commentary as a wealthy, egotistical cishet white man with violent urges brought on by his own entitlement as a wealthy white businessman, who then feels entitled to act on those urges - would be the kind of tumblr user who uses a picrew icon and he/they pronouns. you wanted to make a joke that it would be really funny if patrick bateman put ‘exclus dni’ in his carrd. you wanted to make a joke about how the american psycho patrick bateman would totally be oversensitive about DID stuff.

you wanted to make the joke about the picrew icon, you wanted to make the joke about the cringy nonbinary people who use neopronouns and nounself pronouns and ‘what’s next emoji pronouns lololol’ as if that isn’t just ordinary fucking attack-helicopter brand transphobia. you wanted to make the joke about ‘cringy mentally ill kids who think they have DID’. you wanted to make the joke about how mentally ill nonbinary queer people ‘act like they’re softbois but are evil and egotistical’

you’ve never been funny a day in your life if you think peak comedy is ableism and transphobia. fuck right off
