Recentering women in feminism is the only way to go. If men have problems atp they could easily create a political and social movement to fix that shit themselves but you notice how they blame women and not other men. Women have always been the focus in my politics, especially Black women and Especially ESPECIALLY Black transgender women.

Also we've gotta go back to being mean. The bimbo movement or whatever was dumb. Unironic girlboss is stupid. Y'all gotta realize that playing into a gender role will never free you from or destroy the patriarchy. Makeup does more harm than good, the fashion industry and it's expectations for the ideal woman are extremely harmful, the body positivity movement was still based in a desire to be attractive rather than a demand that we not even be defined by racist, sexist, etc standards of beauty in the first place.

Like I'm sorry but insisting feminism as an ideology is about ~gender equality~ and not the specific patriarchal oppression that women of all kinds go through is partly what got us into this mess. Defanged bc some of y'all were too worried about men's opinions. Defanged because you couldn't let go of the comfort of the patriarchy. Defanged because you couldn't let go of white supremacy and transphobia. Defanged because you liked the aesthetic of feminism more than the action of it and THAT is because you let capitalism take feminism and sell it back to you as a cutesy pink logo with some tshirts and shades.

We're in a massive conservative reactionary swing on all fronts right now. I know obv not all feminists are giving into the pressure to be political in name only while still upholding legiterately everything feminism is meant to be against, but this is scary and frustrating.

I like that arthur asks the green knight like “so you’re coming here to compete with one of my knights?” and the green knight is like ahaha, no!! of course not!! do not be absurd!!! all I want is to play my little game :) then reveals the game is chopping each other with an axe

Decadence

Translation from turkish: he’s loves the wash. He’s famous around here , don’t you know him? He’s always here he loves it.

I was not expecting that.

elon musk is literally like a parody. like he cant genuinely fucking be like this like bro is on some satirical depiction of a spoiled rich kid type shit. like hes a cartoon evil rich guy. throwing tantrums bc someone criticized him or said they didnt like him. spending billions of dollars to buy an app and then changing the app every time someone uses a feature of the app to insult him or hurt his feefees. dude straight up does the cartoon steam blowing out of ears train whistle shit irl every time someone says anything mean to him or is transgender but whats terrifying is he has enough money to do anything he wants and millions of chuds who would gladly no homo suck his cock every night before he goes to bed. like. how has someone come to be like this. why has this been allowed to happen why was he created

i think most rich guys are actually more like elon than they aren't, they all have simpering fanclubs online but enough haters to keep them up at night. i've seen a good half-dozen "richest man in X country" instagram accounts litigating their personal beef with some obscure shitposter who won't stop trolling them. they run the world but everyone doesn't love them so they're not happy

this is the richest guy in africa and his mortal enemy, a bored brazilian man

daily reminder that the worst thing that could ever happen is that they stop being friends

i’ve been learning french for 25 days straight now. if you even care

so far my favourite parts have been when Pimsleur man said “now say, give me one-hundred dollars” (i could and i did)

and in the latest lesson where He kept making me ask what a word meant but refused to explain. “ask me, qu’est-ce que ça veut dire?” i do, he smiles and does not explain and moves onto the next part of the lesson

Actually your society is the freaks for shooting everything that moves and burning half your "nature reserves" every year so that upperclass dandies can eat leaded pheasant. North Americans are the well adjusted ones here, your country has become a desolate suburban lawn in island form
