re: Leftube Meta 

And quite honestly, Oliver Thorn of Philosophy Tube can get fucked for defending an enbyphobe with the intensity of a thirsty trans-chaser. And so can Peter Coffin, for that matter, for throwing their own under the bus to stay in Contrapoints' good graces.

Disgusting spineless cowards, the lot of them.

Leftube Meta 

The sinister part about how neolibs have appropriated leftube culture is that they have saturated the airwaves so much about we should go about calling out a popular Youtuber's oopsies, that any and all legitimate criticisms of actual missteps in the leftube community has gotten drowned out and pushed away.

I am even seeing people like PIGPUNCHER punch down on other leftists for being too critical, in much the same way I remembered seeing people like Metokur target trans folk for ridicule.

Remember, almost none of them have openly criticized Contrapoints or put pressure onto her in any meaningful way when she was freely platforming truscum adjacent rhetoric, and actual truscum folk. They would rather find any excuse to sweep this under the rug rather than force her to be accountable to the very community she draws her popularity from, and is continuing still to traumatize via stochastic means and general negligence.

This should tell you where the priorities of most leftubers lie; their own social status.

And this is why I don't really believe in 90% of leftubers, it's become a trend that no longer has any honesty behind it. But then again, leftube only started becoming a thing that people tune into once white folk started getting into these spaces.

Non-white youtubers have been talking about the same stuff that leftubers have been saying for years now, but nobody really paid attention to them then.

There's not a single worthwhile thing transphobes and homophobes can do, that queer people can't do better.

We can write better stories.

We can lead with more heart.

We can understand other groups and nations with more compassion.

We can build more ethical businesses.

We don't need them. And we're not second-best.

I should combine the ideas in my musical thoughtlets into a song.

cw discourse, long post 

in my view cwing heavy important topics is not about being sheltered, it's about providing choice to people who have potentially bad reactions to the wrong infostimulus at the wrong time

in other words, lemme look at the cw so i can decide whether or not i'm in the right mental state to read whatever it is you're talking about. as important as [insert topic here] absolutely unquestionably is, sometimes i just plain don't have the spoons

and if you don't use the cw facility to give me the choice not to interact with heavy topics, i will exercise the choice to mute your account to protect my own mental health. and, in view of the fact that in the future i may well be more receptive to reading stuff, why would you want to encourage me cutting you off forever?

idk, i think that's reasonable enough, right? do let me know if i'm missing something here

A 4chan post, but one that makes some good points about Harry Potter 

Sorry to triple post the picture but I don't know how else to fit the alt text in for screen readers.

Music sketch 

Sometimes, you just have to jot down some musical ideas.

Used :

  • AAS Player : Pop Rocks sound pack
  • Audio Assault Bulldozer - Clean preset
  • iZotope Neutron 3 Elements
  • Arturia Reverb PLATE-140 (Being offered for free rn)
  • iZotope DDLY Dynamic Delay
  • iZotope Ozone 8 Elements

had we known then what we know that

well, there was a lot of steps to take in between. but if we'd only taken the time to actually look, to critically examine, and stretch out, and just

recognising neurodivergence is FUCKING hard and anyone that says self dx is bad can heck off

Gab, fascists, and fascist sympathizers 

If someone advocates for Gab freely interacting with the decent humans of the Fediverse, then they're supporting Gab.

Gab is the platform for Nazis.

To endorse or support Gab in any way, including advocating a position that Gab should be able to interact with decent human beings, is to be a Nazi sympathizer.

They can whine about semantics, but they're Nazi sympathizers. The facts are the facts.

Nazi sympathizers deserve no respect.

Twitter; transphobia in pic; actually a good response from Mark Hamill though 

See how easy it is to apologize for a Twitter mistake?
