I’d bet money that the only economic systems twitter OP and wack-ashimself could actually name would be capitalism, socialism, and communism, and their actual definitions would all be wrong.

I’d love to know how capitalism sabotaged mercantilism, or feudalism.

If you ever find yourself going “the only problem with X is that we couldn’t keep Y from making it fail”, you might want to sit down and have a think. Especially if your side’s previous line was “real X has never been tried!”

[chocolate-and-discourse]

@wack-ashimself this is a side blog and I’m not going to derail that post in the notes with my main, so I have to reply this way.

To start, and number one, the word psycho is an ableist slur, don’t use it please, but I agree that killers are generally bad for society.

Secondly, yeah medication is a highly personal choice and I want to make it explicitly clear that no matter what someone’s diagnosis is, if they believe medication is not for them they should have the agency to turn it down. That being said, the post we started this conversation on literally had links saying that people with ADHD are at a much MUCH higher risk of death than the average population without treatment. Sometimes that treatment is going to include medication, sometimes it won’t. If you personally don’t want medication, no one should be able to force you to take it.

Thirdly, medication doesn’t turn anyone into “defaults”, medication doesn’t make people neurotypical. If someone is on the correct medicine for them, it makes them functional. They get done in their lives much more of what they want and need to get done with it. For some people, medication can be the difference between life and death.

Fourth, ADHD has absolutely always existed. Diagnostic tools have gotten better in recent years, while simultaneously our capitalistic society has further punished neurodivergencies. I personally believe that in a perfect world, whatever form that would take, neurodivergent people including autistic people and people with ADHD would be valued by the unique way that we experience life, and the stressors that cause such a high suicide rate would be deminished If not completely eliminated. But I’m an idealist perhaps.

Fifthly, if you’re saying a diagnosis of ADHD/ADD just means you have an “excited kid”, you fundamentally misunderstand ADHD. Not your fault entirely, considering most portrayals of ADHD in the media are of the “ooh shiny squirrel” stereotype. This wouldn’t be so bad if it weren’t a reply on a post exactly clarifying what ADHD entails aside from it being known as “trouble sitting still disorder”. I implore you to look into the experiences of people, especially adults, with ADHD. This fundamental misunderstanding is EXACTLY what OP was talking about the entire post. ADHD isn’t just being an excited kid, it makes everyday living hard, it’s a disability because of that.

TL;DR- ADHD is more than being excitable, it makes living life difficult for those who have it, and for many of those people treatment is the difference between life and death. Sometimes that treatment will include medication, which doesn’t turn anyone into “defaults”, but helps them function. Many people want medication, some dont, and that is a personal choice. Being of the opinion that you, personally, don’t want to take medicine doesn’t make the condition you were offered medicine for not real. ADHD has always existed.

wack-ashimself mentioned you on a post “Okay, the saddest scene I have ever seen in animation. Period.”

@paragonrobits okay they did not show this in the animation but that is really screwed up

i wish the Spikes had been truly shown and followed up on the Hulk bringing them to an environment where they could live in peace, but i get they had a limited time to adapt everything.

some other stuff left out of the Planet Hulk adaptation:

Miek is a much sadder character in the comic, with one thing after another breaking him down more and more, until he eventually pupates into a massive and towering hive king, only for his hive queen to die from spike infection, rendering his people functionally extinct. Combined with his hatred of the colonizing imperials for profiting while his people die, and him learning all the wrong lessons from Hulk’s bitterness and spiteful attitude, Miek becomes a hateful person lost to absolute despair and hopelessness

there’s a few bits where Banner shows up in Hulk’s mind, though it’s unclear if he is actually trying to take over, or if Hulk is dreaming all that: Hulk has an extremely jaded view of Banner as mindlessly hostile towards him, so it could be either, and in all of them Banner treats Hulk as a monster who can’t behave, and nothing more than that

the possibility of Hulk being the Worldbreaker is given more emphasis in the comic; there is a LOT of ambiguity throughout, with a lot of his statements being just vague enough that he could be making threats, or just being very bitter. the fear that he CAN’T be anything but a destructive monster clearly weighs hard on Hulk, though, and its part of his character arc in the comic proper

Okay so I initially read this and assumed it was just another Classic Nonsensical Tumblr Meme ™.

But! @wack-ashimself’s comment made my brain stutter. I swear to god … there’s a video of mordecai singing this song. It feels fake and like I dreamt it but I KNOW there’s a fan made video of this exact thing.

mordecai and rigby stop pretending that airplanes in the night sky are like shooting stars or youre fired

For the first time in my entire life, things are actually starting to make sense. Not entirely (or even close) of course, but more than they ever used to. This is a good thing. A good feeling. It's like....we were trying to put together a puzzle with the pieces at hand, right in front of us, then we realized we're actually are working on 10 different puzzles, simultaneously, and tho it doesn't appear so at first, they are all completely separate final pictures. Each one with a story and its' own importance; it's own value. And we do need to see each one for what they are as individuals, and, their meaning as a whole.

[kaiju-z]

hey, uh, for everyone following me, may I name someone to avoid on tumblr?

“ wack-ashimself”

Was browsing the dnd tumblr tag and I saw a weird post by this idiot ranting about how “South Park got it right” about something they probably didn’t get right. Aaand uh, lots of contradictory bullshit on his tumblr, so please block ‘em to avoid all the nonsense he spews and tags so that people, who probably will never see his shit otherwise will see it.

[marasplayground]

wack-ashimself’s entire blog just reeks of intentionally sowing discord, mistrust and deflection. 70% sure we’re looking at a paid state-actor.

I wont ask anon, cuz I have integrity. Question-how do you know you're asexual? And do not answer 'How do you know you're gay/bisexual/straight?' Simple, for all them-if you like something, you go for it. For asexuals, they are NOT attracted to anyone, physical. So....mentally? Can being attracted in other ways bring a different attraction? Also-how can you say you are not attracted to anyone? Have you met everyone?> Experienced every individual body? More curious than anything, & could be wrong

ohhhh dear it sounds like you’re kind of confused about how sexual attraction works. to set things straight, i’m demiromantic and demisexual, but generally talk about asexuality more & you addressed asexuality specifically so yeah but y’all should know there’s also a difference between sexual and romantic attraction/orientations.

first off there’s two kinds of sexual attraction: primary and secondary. primary is attraction based off looks, first impressions - it’s the ability to objectify body parts and the ability to want to have sex with strangers without even knowing their name. i have never experienced this kind of attraction, and never will. i know it exists, because i have talked with people who do experience it.

secondary sexual attraction is when you form an emotional bond to the person themselves. it’s when you learn about the good and the bad parts and everything they do kind of makes you fall in love with them a bit, and then they’re attractive. this is the only kind of sexual attraction i’ve ever experienced as a demisexual. it’s like, i’m not attracted to them cause they’re cute - they’re cute cause i’m attracted to them.

most allosexuals (people not on the ace spectrum) experience both, or one or the other, depending on the person. most full asexuals never experience either. some grey-aces experience one or the other from time to time. literally the only reason i know what sexual attraction feels like is because there’s, like, three fictional characters i’m attracted to and that’s it. but there are asexuals and demisexuals who have never experienced sexual attraction and might never experience it - they might be just as confused as you are, but that doesn’t make their experience any less legitimate.

“Also-how can you say you are not attracted to anyone? Have you met everyone?> Experienced every individual body?” this is irrelevant since i’m incapable of objectifying bodies, regardless of body type, race, gender - unless it belongs to a person i’m attracted to. if it’s someone i’m attracted to they could have literally any body and i would be attracted to them - it’s not their flesh vessel i’m attracted to, honestly, it’s the celestial being inside of it.

"And do not answer ‘How do you know you’re gay/bisexual/straight?’ Simple, for all them-if you like something, you go for it." simple! if we don’t like something, we don’t go for it. i used to make excuses for myself like “oh the dating pool’s just terrible around here, oh it’s just so much work i don’t have time for relationships, oh i’m sure i’ll grow into it, in ten years i’ll probably be picking up guys and girls in bars…” the truth was, i had never experienced sexual attraction. this is the mindset that leads so many asexuals to believe they’re broken for most of their life, because they don’t know they’re missing something - the itch for sexual intimacy, the desire to touch somebody they see across the room.

darling, i understand you’re curious, and i’m honestly in a good mood for educating and answering questions right now (even though i was gonna go to bed an hour ago, whoops). i’m very secure in my demisexuality now, after three years of questioning and a year of firmly believing, and i have a basis of what you call “mental attraction” to compare my overwhelming non-attraction to the rest of the population to. but there are asexuals who are insecure about their identities, who think some of the same things as you - “how do i know if i haven’t tried it yet? maybe i’m just being a prude? i haven’t met everyone, maybe i should just force myself to try something and then maybe i’ll like it?” and if i fuCKING HEAR OF ANYONE GOING AFTER THOSE ASEXUALS AND INVALIDATING THEIR IDENTITIES OR TELLING THEM THEY NEED TO TRY SEX IN ORDER TO LEGITIMATELY SAY THEY DON’T LIKE IT OR IN ORDER TO EARN THEIR RIGHT TO BE ACE, I SWEAR TO FUCKING GOD I WILL RIP YOUR NIPPLES OFF WITH MY FUCKING TE E T H

in conclusion i’m glad we had this discussion, feel free to ask me more in the morning if there’s anything you need clarified, and don’t mess with my ace babes because i am super fucking protective ok goodnight

I woke up today to the sunshine on my face,

which was weird because my curtains were closed.

But I smiled at the light thru the dark,

as if its' value was never diminished.

I took a deep breath, ready for the race,

as if I was the only one running, unopposed.

Finding my focus, my gaze, my spark,

Tho my path to who I am is still unfinished.

I'll set some world record in Guinness,

be it lobbing awkwardly thru a park,

people starring, I am being nosed,

so I exit with quite a bit of haste.

But aren't we all running for the finish?

We want to hug, but always go for the bark?

A shield? Protection? Like we were still embryos?

So we look to another and just copy and paste...

Because if you can't find your own smile, it's still easier to wear someone else's instead of a cry....

[wack-ashimself]

This is why I said for a long time now don't take pride in something you never chose. That you never had a saying. And that does go in regards of age, sex, sexuality, race, nationality, and even religion. If you really think about it. Take pride in accomplishments that you have chosen in this lifetime. Because those are you. You are your choices. Anything else is outside of you.

[molly-writes]

@wack-ashimself No, that was real. it was paid for with donations to the Susan G. Komen foundation and other shit like that is why only like 20% of their donations actually manage to get to either cancer patients or cure research.

With pride on the horizon I'm starting to see the semi-regular posts made by somewhat misinformed or misguided queer comrades about how companies can help lgbtq people.

This is a contradiction in terms.

Large corporations and even small companies profiting off our community isnt help. The bourgeois class will never help us in a meaningful way because it would immediately place their own economic power in grave jeopardy.

Don't let yourself get roped in by this line of thinking that begs the bourgeoisie to help the marginalized, its never going to happen.
