#this is about something specific

[quinloki]

I gotta take a moment and say a thing:

Stop expecting perfection from people.

I mean. Especially singular individuals on the internet.

People aren’t going to know everything. I don’t know everything. YOU do not know everything. You can dedicate your life to a singular topic and still not know everything.

So perfection is impossible.

Social media artists cannot be held to celebrity or business standards. We don’t have copywriters or law teams or press liaisons.

Assuming someone knows the intricacies of English enough to be perfect in it is classist/ableist at best, and assumptive at the least. I know one language, I went to college to learn about this singular language, and I can promise you, i fuck up wrtijg and speaking English CONSTANTLY.

Hounding someone from behind anon is bullying. If you mean to help educate or enlighten someone, be sure enough in your knowledge and conviction to do it with your entire face, or just move on. I’m irritated seeing perfectly decent people pestered by pedantic cravens who can’t even own their views honestly.

And if you don’t want to be put on blast for “trying to help”, then realize your convictions are thus, and move on.

And remember, kids; It’s not true privilege if you have to hide something to have it!

Every day I log onto TikTok and instagram only to immediately remember why I stick to Tumblr

[clubsheartsspades]

from time to time tumblr forces me to see the worst opinions known to mankind and I'm long since past playing "is the guy who said this an asshole or do they want a sincere discussion about this" because most of the time the answer is the first one and I have better things to do than to listen to people give passive aggressive comments to make sure nobody's having fun anymore, like my guy it's really not that deep, just calm down and stop screaming at passers-by

Me, going into something knowing that it's by a comedy dnd group: surely this will be fun

I try (and often fail) not to be a condescending bastard most of the time, but whenever I see people deny the themes and subtext of a story that are so obviously there, I can't help but think "are you stupid? Is that it? Are you genuinely fucking stupid?" And it is a constant struggle to keep it to myself.

You ever have an inside joke with a mutual that you know would do numbers, but it requires five hours worth of messages and a short essay to understand so it

the way people online talk about autism is getting really weird, like do they know that neurotypicals still have interests? that someone being passionate about a hobby doesn't mean they're autistic? you guys know that right

hey! you shouldnt make jokes calling cis people eggs, especially when they are real living breathing human beings with intelligent thought and critical thinking. if you do, you're weird and i think you should consider the effect your words more often, because as someone who was a very public facing cis person who had a lot of Egg jokes made about me before transitioning, it still makes me fucking sick to think about. it fucked me up so bad that i refused to transition until i quit my job and wasnt under the eyes of people making bets on my psychology. how dare you fucking speak down to me regarding my own identity. how dare you fucking claim to know me better than i know myself.

it is not the privilege of trans people to have their stated gender identity believed, nor is it a sin of cis people to acknowledge their option to transition and still remain cis. make egg jokes about fictional characters, fine. but accusing a stranger of not being the gender they claim to be is not something you get to reclaim when you're trans.
