HARVEY GUILLÉN Met Gala 2023, Karl Lagerfeld: A Line of Beauty

Ableism and fatphobia spin around in circles. Can't say this enough.

Many people gain weight after becoming disabled/chronically ill due to being forced into a less active lifestyle, and losing weight becomes harder and harder when physical activities become more and more challenging. We get put on medications that have weight gain side effects. Some of us women go into premature menopause, which also leads to weight gain and slower metabolism.

The next fatphobic ableist who tells any of us to diet and exercise owes my dog a femur to gnaw on.

my least favorite thing abt the trans bathroom discourse is the other trans ppl going “lmao dumb transphobes don’t u know that if u pass these bills you’ll have trans MEN in the women’s bathroom????????” bc like. no. that’s actually not what will happen. what will happen is that we just won’t use the bathroom at all, bc do you know what happens when someone who looks like they could possibly be a man walks into a women’s bathroom when there are transphobes around? they get beaten half to death or get the cops called on them. so no, the result of these bathroom bans won’t be “trans men in women’s bathrooms lol” it will be trans men not going out in public as much or trans men suffering higher rates of utis and kidney problems. what happens is that transphobes get what they want: we disappear from public life.

It is not inappropriate for AAC users to have acsess to swear words.

My peers started swearing at around age 10, and if that is what language the speaking people of that age are using, nonspeaking people have the same right.

Not giving us acsess to the same type of language as our peers feels alienating, it doesn't let us communicate with the same language and terms our peers and friends do. We are not babies. We are not stupid. We are the same as our speaking peers. Just because you can sometimes control what language we use, doesnt mean you should.

hey full offense but the ‘use the right pronouns even if the person is horrible!’ statements arent made to coddle horrible ppl, its saying ‘dont view correct pronouns as a fucking privilege that can be taken away once people decide you’ve fucked up enough’, misgendering someone on purpose is transphobic no matter what bc it equates transphobia as a ‘punishment’ for bad people, pronouns are a part of baseline human respect, its that simple

Hey whump community, if we as a whole could stop incorrectly referring to various whumper characters as "sociopaths" "psychopaths" "bipolar" "narcissists" or any other demonized mental conditions, that would be nice.

If you're going to write a story which seriously takes into account how a mental illness, cluster b disorder, or whatever affects a character (yes, including villains) I'm fine with it so long as you put in your due research.

But if you're going to throw around improper diagnostic terms and slurs for the mentally ill simply to state that a character is "evil" or "abusive" then you are getting yourself blocked no questions asked.

Do you have any stance on syscorse (specifically regarding non traumagenic systems)?

Endogenic systems are dope and anyone who says/thinks otherwise can fuck off until they're willing to understand.
