Transfems are trying to disempower afabs not so that amabs and afabs have equal group powers in queer/progressive/leftist contexts, so that there is no longer domination by any agab, but they are specifically trying to establish amab domination and therefore subjugate afabs because they fear that if afabs are not under amab control they will almost inevitably reconstitute themselves as a terf political force, and therefore reproduce transfem oppression.
The subjugation of afabs to amabs is therefore seen as a way of minimizing the risk of the terf threat, a way to keeping it under control.
You have to get it into your head that transfems see afabs, whether cis, trans or non-binary, as a terf threat.
If you guys liked Challengers you will not regret picking up Infinite Jest! It's like a slow-burn, post-apocalyptic AU with lots of trans + queer rep and aspects of magical realism, anti-capitalist and lighthearted fun for all audiences!¹
Why don’t they go to space?
When I live in the present and don’t think about the future I feel 5/10, but when I think about the next week / month I feel 2/10, but if I think about the a year from now or more im back up to a 4/10.
The solution, I think, is to never think.
IDK I just think every human alive should be forced to read Infinite Jest. Is that too much to ask?
I fear that cine2nerdle would heavily outweigh pokedoku
need a compilation of nl getting tilted at the inherent fallibility of prescriptive categories. specifically for things like movie genres and pokémon types.
Maybe I too, am a fish
big fan of taking it easy, and honestly genuinely have no interest whatsoever in the grind
I feel comparatively worse than I should about my least favorite thing I've written becoming my most successful on this website, with an illustrious 3 likes. The post is not totally bad, just poorly structured and one of the conclusions is sophomoric. I suppose that kind of thing is to be expected when I have so little experience using social media sites actively
I think the framing of complex books as something people should read, in like a self betterment sense, is both deeply harmful to the people who do read it and view it as a chore (an enjoyable one at times, but still a chore) and those who don’t because they see it as too challenging. You should read complex things because challenging yourself is enjoyable, and the famous ones (Infinite Jest my beloved) tend to be quite good. Also it’s not like there’s an intelligence requirement to read things like some people believe (probably to make themselves feel smart), other than literacy in the language and willingness to look up words you don’t know.
