so PugJesus, who posts like 90% of the memes here, doesn't miss out from federation. Bish earned the instance ban on blahaj.zone, but it felt rude to not have them see a post on a comm they enjoy. Plus, this prevents a double post of the same meme in the future.
Sauce: There's No Way I Could Date My Fave!
Source: Furidashi ni Ochiru. This is more of a non-romantic sitcom anthology than a traditional yuri series. It basically edges you for the entire run, introducing numerous ships that never sail. Some lilies blossom in the final chapter after a time jump, so it's not truly queerbaiting. The focus just isn't on the romance, but the comedy. It's still very gay though 😊
Becoming Her Lover For the Sake of Love
Watashi ga Koibito ni Nareru Wake Naijan, Muri Muri! (Muri Janakatta!?)
There’s No Freaking Way I’ll be Your Lover! Unless…
Especially true given my profile pic:
How Do I Get Together With My Childhood Friend?
I have the opposite problem. I'm a goober that comes across as smarter than I am, so I need to try harder to show my thoughtless side or people expect too much of me (｡╯︵╰｡)
Alt text: one girl kissing another up against a wall in a social media post with 8 likes captioned: "Lesbians are turning men into servile trans women and using their essence to gain more power."
It all worked out alright in the end :)
He's openly bragged about wanting to fuck his own underage daughter, so I don't even need to hide behind "allegedly" to call him a pedo creep.
From the conservativepedia, an alternate reality with sub Calvinball logic.
Unless Kate is a lesbian. Then she's living in her own personal hell.
Girlfriends
Not just society. People with differing gender identities think differently, while hormones also influence how you think. Testosterone makes all people more aggressive and people with more masc identities think differently to those with less masc identities. It's a spectrum with multiple dimensions that all contribute to one's internal range of comfortable identities. Who fucking knows the specifics, but that's probably the general picture.
Gender identity kind of needs to be based in biology rather than culture, because otherwise conversion therapy would work and social contagion theories would hold water. Queerness is based in biology, but scientific labels of normality are also socially constructed tools of power that can be used for abuse. Queer theory and evolution are not incompatible. Evolutionary science doesn't inherently invalidate nonbinary gender identities, and doesn't validate most aspects of binary sex. Only sex cells evolved to be inherently binary, everything else varies based on incentives rather than rules.
Talking about biology and evolution in regards to gender feels so icky to us because it has been used as a tool for oppression so much in the past. It's like race science used to justify oppression of non white people. They use the authority of science to say we don't exist, refuse to accurately document our experiences, apply cisheteronormative assumptions even when they don't make sense, and claim that we're all freaks of nature instead of nature working as intended.
Just like how racial minorities have taken evolutionary theory from white supremacists as an authoritative tool of oppression, we need to take it back from transphobes and transmeds that want to invalidate and abuse. They assume that we should model our lives after nature, but we really shouldn't. Nature thrives on death and suffering. It isn't enviable; we just need to figure out how to live in it.
My favorite part is how Garfield retroactively inserts himself into your past once you notice how widespread he is. Or maybe he just suppressed memories about liking it because Garfield seems cringe at a certain age, and remembering that would be too embarrassing.
I bought too many Garfield comic collections for me to forget liking it, but at least I also loved Calvin and Hobbes which is at the opposite end of the spectrum.
Just like fascists, tankies could theoretically hang out here without getting the boot. It's just that genocide denying authoritarians cannot be tolerated in a tolerant, democratic society. The reason tankies and fascists get the boot is because they can't resist trying to bully and intimidate those that find their views abhorrent. They simply can't resist being terrible.
They're cultists with views that can't stand up to scrutiny, so they need use other tactics to spread their shit and gain power. They use the real downsides and weaknesses of democracy to argue we need an even worse system. Then they argue you actually hold the worst views of their enemies, even though they usually support exactly the same things that make those enemies bad. Tankies claim you're a free-market liberal for opposing them, when the countries they support are state capitalists. Fascists claim you're against freedom of speech, while they are always trying to ban ideas they hate. Some of them are misguided and believe their own lies, but others are just awful people.
