I am so tired of this happening

Call-out post for white people: sometimes, People of Color use the internet! Sometimes they run across what you're posting on the internet! So if you're making a diversity/inclusivity/anti-racism thing in a publically accessible (and sometimes even in a locked) area and you assume that your audience is 100% white... you are, in fact, being racist!

I probably could write about how the reason radfem thought is so popular in queer/feminist/otherwise supposedly progressive spaces is because it's basically taking the general "ew sex" conservative line of thought that most people grew up with and packaging a ~woke~ veneer on it.

But honestly I think you've all read a dozen analyses to that effect.

So I'm just going to complain that yet another user that I followed for the amusing jokes revealed themself to be ~sex critical~ and ~anti-hetero~ and whatever other frikken buzzwords they're using now.

"All women would be lesbians if they could choose their orientation" is a take I want to yeet directly into the sun's core.

Amatonormativity is a hell of a drug

Wait a moment.

Did the Avengers series actually end with Captain America leaving his friends, including lifelong friend Bucky who's the only one who was there for his formative years, to be with a woman he kissed once?!

I am not here for the porn, showrunners

Showrunners: "Here's a hot character!"

Me: "Okay, does he have... a personality or anything?"

Showrunners: "He's super hot!"

Me: "...and?"

Showrunners: "And he's totally boning one of the main characters!"

Me: "So, what's their dynamic like?"

Showrunners: "They spend a lot of time saying 'I love you' and boning! Sometimes they stare into each others' eyes because they have such a soulful connection!"

Me: "But do they have anything in common at all?"

Showrunners: "Lots of boning!"

Me: "Ughhhhh. I don't give a crap about this dude."

Showrunners: "Due to bad response, we are writing this character out of the show. But... here's a new hot guy to replace him! He's going to bone one of the main characters!"
