A common argument that I hear from conservatives is that "people of the past were not so sensitive like people of today"
Mf people in 1950's America threw a tantrum because someone of a different skin color wanted to drink at the same fountain as them. Don't give me this bs about how people back then "weren't sensitive".
I have only been on Tumblr for a little bit, and I gotta say, something I love about the Tumblr experience is seeing very amateur fan content of everything (and I absolutely do not mean amateur as an insult).
It is such a raw expression of love for something, to be so passionate that you create in spite of how others might judge you. To create something that is so unabashedly "cringe" to others and still be so proud of it all the same. That is so powerful to me as someone with a low self-esteem who folds easily to social pressure. God speed you brave beautiful creative souls.
The "finding out Santa isn't real" of capitalism is finding out that most rich people are just idiots who got lucky
I get it, poop comes out of the anus. You sound like a 5 year old who just learned about sex: "ew, that's where you pee out of!".
Yes, the anus is "gross", just as many other parts of the human body are "gross". Genitals make pee, the vagina gets bloody every month, the mouth is a cesspool of spit and bacteria, skin is always covered in dead skin cells and makes sweat, but nobody ever complains about them being gross, because we have a novel concept called WASHING and HYGIENE. Homophobes always say that "it will never be clean, it will always be covered in shit", which is just plain untrue. It's fallacious and hypocritical to treat this particular part of the body any differently, and is clearly just an excuse to paint homosexual men as disgusting and degenerate.
And just to be clear, yes, I know that not all gay men have sex anally, and I'm not saying that everyone has to find it arousing themselves. I'm just saying that we really need to drop this stigma around anal.
It's not because they think that they will be given money or get noticed, it's because they want to maintain the narrative of capitalism as a pure meritocracy. Capitalist theory tells us that hard work and risk is what will make you rich, and an incongruence between what rich people should be and what they are breaks this. To admit that someone like Elon Musk is an idiot who only got rich off generational wealth is to admit that capitalism is inherently flawed. That's why rich people are placed on this pedestal of perfection where they can do no wrong.
They aren't defending the individuals; they are defending the ideal of capitalism they have been taught all their lives.
An autistic thought I had brewing in my mind is that the song Naomi by Neutral Milk Hotel would go pretty hard as a Clinical Trial amv. The themes of stalking, abuse from the world, self-hate, and angelic imagery all line up quite nicely.
The song would almost be perfect for it, if it used they/them pronouns instead of she/her.
Also maybe I just wanted an excuse to combine two of my obsessions lol
Something I've realized is that the question "who hurt you?" in response to saying you're an atheist is not just very condescending but also reveals something about the person saying it.
Somewhere, in the back of their mind, they acknowledge that abusive people often use religion as a means of enabling their abuse. And, they think this is such a common occurrence that you can always assume somebody who hates religion must have been abused by it.
I hate these kinds of articles, we know Captain obvious. Unless you have a magical cure for my insomnia, that is not happening. I'd much rather have a fucked up back and neck rather than having a sad fucked up brain from getting no sleep.
My car is getting serviced and this auto shop has a shop dog and he's ridiculous. Look at this guy. This is a grown ass man.
I am trying to make a wiki entry for IDK of the TBH creature wiki https://tbh-creatures.fandom.com/wiki/TBH_Creature_Wiki
I cannot find the source of the IDK creature as I need to be able to credit the original artist.
Just your average male bisexual anarchist DNI: Terfs, Antishippers, Authoritarians and all others that hate fun
