"its a trans man making a man in a dress joke so its fine actually"
Seems like the current defense is “it’s not calling trans people gross and creepy, it’s calling fat people and creepy” which is not better at all.
Like you look at how fat characters are drawn in smiling friends vs in say a Seth Macfarlane show and it’s hard not to come to the conclusion that smiling friends is even more mean spirited in how it punches down than your average western adult cartoon. And I fucking hate every macfarlane show as it is.
real cool and fun how the official tos of this site is basically "you can stalk and harass a trans woman as much as you like, she will be held accountable for anything she says in response to it."
even the fucking guy who owns this place has done this, to the letter.
Tumblr, the queerest site on the internet!

i really think we the U.S. public need to be SUPER FUCKING LOUD about how admirable we think this kind of thing is.
Anytime military members speak up about not liking their orders to be deployed against the american public, or especially REFUSING such orders, the nation needs to hear a great outcry of public support for that act
Collectively how we all respond to Moon getting a flashlight blast.
Quick ink pen doodle for you lot :)
OP breaks down how online influencers make form-fitting clothes look more appealing and drive sales
She went from Jessica Rabbit to Olive Oyl.
If you want the Jessica Rabbit look, you are much more likely to get it by strategically padding yourself out than by any other method, including a dress that looks like Jessica Rabbit on someone else.
And the thing is, up through the 19th Century, people knew it. If you want a specific silhouette, okay, fine, you use corsets and strategic padding and bum rolls and hoop skirts or whatever you need to achieve that silhouette.
Now we think that you should achieve that look by "diet and exercise" and plastic surgery.
I don't think this is a step forward ...
I think it would be a step forward if we admitted that's what we were doing.
I haven’t posted here in a bit HELP sorry I’ve been super busy,, anyways have this LMAO my friends freaked out over this so maybe tumblr will enjoy

Life's A Happy Song from the muppets hehheh i like to think that moon secretly sings the songs sun sings but in a lullaby version
bad news everyone: i have a take
the loneliness epidemic/gen z dead-eyed stare/poor socialization of younger generations and increasing rudeness of older ones is kinda an internet thing and kinda a pandemic thing but it is also the well-meaning chickens of the Stranger Danger movement coming home to roost
something something everybody thinks violent crime is at a high when it’s at a 30 year low, something something training your children to see everyone outside of their family as a threat until you yourself believe it, something something. again this was well-intentioned, people want their kids to be safe, but when you’ve heard “dont talk to strangers” all your life it’s hard to kill that instinct as an adult
but yeah if you’re an early 20-something person, it might be helpful to be directly told this: talk to strangers. that rule only applied when you were a child. you not only should but must talk to strangers
