Another selection of some of the better names I've come across in Regency era newspapers recently.

Things I've seen tumblr memeing about James Somerton doing à la "How did no one see how bigoted he was!" as if those things haven't been a significant part of tumblr culture for over a decade :

Presenting untrue and bordering on conspiratorial versions of (queer or otherwise marginalised) history without any sources

Completely disregarding and disrespecting any expertise on socio-cultural topics/humanities and distrusting academics and historians (incl. acting as if no academics or historians could be queer or marginalised)

Downplaying the role misogyny played in the historical oppression of queer women and concluding that queer men must have been more oppressed than queer women

Bi women are, at best, not as queer as "real" queer ppl, and at worst, simply equivalent to straight women

Despite nominal trans inclusivity, transmasculine ppl are functionally women when convenient (combined with the above, bi transmascs are functionally straight women)

Despite nominal trans inclusivity (bis), shamelessly attacking, threatening and actively endangering any trans woman who questions them or smth they find important (often by unfairly presenting her as violent or as a threat)

Having absolutely fucking wild and reductive takes about ace ppl, the oppression they face and their place in the queer community

Stating that marriage equality is an assimilationist fight while completely ignoring its direct roots in the horrifying consequences of the AIDS crisis for partners of ppl who died of AIDS

Praising western media creators from the past for queer coding even under censure and in the same breath condemning current non western media creators for being homophobic bc their representation isn't explicit enough

Blaming China for all existing homophobic censoring in western media

Assuming all queer media would be better told by western creators and by western standards

Only out queer ppl get to tell queer stories

Heavily criticising almost all queer media created by women or ppl they see as such (see above points about trans ppl) or involving/starring a significant amount of women for any perceived or real amount of "problematicness", but fawning over and praising and negating criticism of queer media created by and starring mostly or even functionally exclusively men (even when it could be argued that, you know, not involving/seriously sidelining women is a pretty clear example of misogyny which should probably be considered "problematic")

And I'm probably forgetting stuff or there's stuff I have internalised myself and don't recognise as an issue

Like idk but I feel like the takeaway from Hbomberguy and Toddintheshadow's videos should maybe be "be aware of such patterns in your communities bc they definitely exist" and not "this guy is uniquely awful" and I feel like a lot of the discussion I've seen surrounding this has been severely failing at that. Most ppl who've spent any significant amount of time on tumblr prob either have internalised at least one of those thought patterns, have had to de-internalise them, or have had to be extremely vigilant to not internalise them (which is done by, you know, seeking out other sources, which also seemed like an important takeaway from the videos)

Phil: Oh, I've got a cat next to me, hello!

Etoiles: [Laughs] Bro has a cat? That's a shame.

Phil: It's not even my cat! It's not even mine, it's my neighbor's cat he just shows up.

Etoiles: Bro has a neighbor what a shame!

Phil: [Laughs]

Etoiles: He's not living alone in the dark, haha!

Phil: Yeah, I've heard about your dungeon Etoiles, from multiple people.

Etoiles: Bro, I'm in a dun– [Laughs]

Phil: The Gamer's Dungeon.

Etoiles: Oh, the people in my chat are saying "IT'S GUS!"

Phil: [Cracking up] It is, actually! Yeah, that's the neighbor's cat. Just showed up and meowed at me for attention.

A certain someone dropped by to say "hello" during Etoiles and Phil's Fruit Mountain match!

Hey if anyone would like to help those in Gaza right now, this is a verified fundraiser that is seeking to raise money to get solar panels to generate electricity to draw drinking water up from the ground. I see what Ahmed goes through every day in Gaza and the least we can do is share this to help him and other get water. Please consider donating, maybe even match my donation, or more!

From the go fund me:

"Thousands of displaced families are suffering due to the lack of water supply. In this heat they travel miles and miles for some water and it is becoming a great struggle especially for mothers with children and babies. 

Great minds amongst the chaos have come up with a solution to generate water to save the people in the area. 

The people in the camp want to draw water from the ground and light up the entire camp. 

How will they do this? How can we help? 

By using solar panels to generate power then using a conversion device to create electricity. A generator to draw in water from the ground. This is a simple but effective solution to this catastrophic situation in Khan Yunis. 

Here is the breakdown of the costs for the equipment needed for them to be able to get this up and running. 

3 solar panels. 

Cost of each panel approximately £600 

3x = approximately £1800 

Solar energy conversion device = approximately £900

2 batteries = approximately £1000 

Thus total of approximately £3,700

Humanity and morality is the key to liberation. 

Please help the families struggling with water to get relief! Please donate to help them and to be rewarded for such a great act of kindness. In’sha’Allah"
