mega transphobia is putting it lightly. this is erasure. that's stooping to such lows that i would never dream of - fuck that instance and all it stands for but i would NEVER do the same to them.
honestly wish that i could say something funny about this but it just makes me fucking sick. these people are literally off in their own worlds after defederation making shit up about me and about my trans comrades and absolutely invalidating our experiences. and like, I know I'm not adding anything here, we all know what this is and me saying it directly isn't new information but i really, genuinely find it distressing.
how fucking dare they, honestly.
i have never felt more welcomed and at home on any other place on the internet, or hell in real life even. i've never felt more seen than i do here. and if it's not someone else's cup of tea then fine, I can respect that, but don't go posting to the world that i and we aren't "really trans". i would never do that to them.
sorry for an uninteresting comment. this one just really got to me...
years ago I was in a music group on a website and someone posted happy king crimson. funniest shit I ever seen. saved it and kept it around, occasionally gazing upon it in my times of need (for giggles). when it was time to upload a pic here I figured it'd look good in a circle. it does.
to whoever originally created this image, wherever you may be, thank you.
okay so what are the mechanics of this? is he... sitting on the floor and then putting his feet up and over the rim of the toilet bowl? is he standing in the toilet? did he bring a chair into a stall?
The fact that so many books still name the Beatles as "the greatest or most significant or most influential" rock band ever only tells you how far rock music still is from becoming a serious art. Jazz critics have long recognized that the greatest jazz musicians of all times are Duke Ellington and John Coltrane, who were not the most famous or richest or best sellers of their times, let alone of all times. Classical critics rank the highly controversial Beethoven over classical musicians who were highly popular in courts around Europe. Rock critics are still blinded by commercial success. The Beatles sold more than anyone else (not true, by the way), therefore they must have been the greatest. Jazz critics grow up listening to a lot of jazz music of the past, classical critics grow up listening to a lot of classical music of the past. Rock critics are often totally ignorant of the rock music of the past, they barely know the best sellers. No wonder they will think that the Beatles did anything worthy of being saved.
yuck. imagine thinking your coworker doesn't deserve their overtime pay and that it is just of you to take it from them, to no benefit of your own.
