Im sorry but it is so funny how people outside of tumblr view us. Like why are the tiktokers treating tumblr like some professional ass website you need to do extensive prep before you begin posting on. And the follower farming advice is so fucking funny to me when this is the website where people actively hate getting new followers
If you don't stick around till the end, you will miss him ❤️

New York State Parks official IG posted about an owl they rescued but decided to use only the most wretched photos of this creature, including what EYE think is the best bird photograph ever taken
OP, why would you not share the rest?!?!?!
idk sometimes i kinda wonder if such a thing as a unified "trans community" even exists. and i *definitely* wonder if such a thing as a unified "queer community" is real.
saying this with the usual caveat of I'm Not Personally Responsible For "Dividing" the Supposed Community," i'm just describing division that already exists. but
idk with how often trans women are scapegoated and personally discriminated against by other queer people, with how clearly other queer people benefit from and exploit transmisogyny.
it'sss getting harder and harder for me to see a truly unified struggle here. "they treat us all like faggots" being a sort of abusive mantra, "no one will ever treat you better than we do, we're all you're getting so you should be grateful for what you have"
sometimes it really does feel like a massive hoodwink, like the surface level similarities of our oppression are being used to draw false equivalence. to keep a convenient underclass around.
it just really seems like a whole lot of people's idea of queer liberation doesn't include trans liberation. (and that a lot of people's idea of trans liberation doesn't include transfem liberation)
no one is free until we're all free of course (it'd just be nice if that was being told to others for a change, rather than used to scold transfems for talking up about their mistreatment)
When turning to trans communities, I should first clarify that what I have in mind is not any one entity called ‘the transgender community’. The notion of a unified community is one mostly appealing to career politicians, who are fond of imagining they might be able to interact with an entire tier of potential voters, through taking a single ‘representative’ out for lunch. In reality, trans people are prised apart and mutually alienated in much the same way as any other group: differences in class, race or ethnicity, and gender position still ensure that even a pair of trans people in the same city might be unlikely on various grounds to even meet.

I feel like tariffing the "entire world" is literally just functionally sanctioning yourself
