Really weird seeing biphobia within the queer community, especially during bi visibility month, as if these weren't the same people who acted like we couldn't celebrate pride month. So when we finally have a month for ourselves, like other sexualities do as well, suddenly we can't have that either. Mind you, a bisexual woman (who had a boyfriend, stay mad biphobes) created Pride...the same thing bisexuals are told they can't participate in. Ain't that some bs.

@sukibenders  i am so sick ppl being biphobic. it's not that hard to understand we like both genders. bisexual women having a bf doesn't take away her queerness and one should not be judge of that in first place.

"Wait, TVD mentioned the Confederacy? When?" Media literacy really is getting to people bc wdym you didn't catch the Confederacy mentions? It was ALL OVER s1, from the founding families to that damn parade to Damon being a literal Confederate, etc. They literally call out verbatim how the Lockwood property used to keep slaves, the same place where Tyler transforms in. And besides Caroline's whole Gone with the Wind fascination...IT'S THE SOUTH! IN 2009! That was def a period where they were tucking their hair behind the ears for some racist dirt bags that committed crimes against humanity. Let's think for once, please!

Yes, the show whitewashed A LOT of aspects regarding the history, often reminiscing Lost Cause rhetoric (bc J Plague is an opp who did that mess for no reason, just by choice), from how they romanticized Damon's choice by being some "sad boy 1000" or just briefly mention it and nothing else or downplay Emily's life as being owned by Katherine (handmaiden my ass) and how her death was definitely a lynching, not that they'd call it that. However, even with this, the message was still clear and you can't blame your lack of attention on the show anymore. That's on you.

KPop stans will defend their faves when they say the n word (or wear blackface), talking about how they don't know American history. But when you respond with "Oh, so then they aren't that bright? Especially given this is a reoccurring issue," they act like you shot their dog. It's just the sentiment around this topic in general is interesting because when call these people out, whether Kpop members or their stans, they for some reason make this an 'American only' issue and say they aren't taught American culture, so how would they know? But you had enough time to learn a slur and it's variations? Mind you, they always use this excuse for the n word, but don't know any others and expect not to get a side eye...

@depaysement them: I don't like r&b or rap, it's just so boring/cue other derogatory things* also them: *blasting r&b and/or rap imitations by idols that definitely didn't learn said formula from another group and just tries to repackage it* omg this is so original, no one could ever compare. They literally invented the genre! 🙄🙄

Like, idk about yall, but whenever I didn't understand the context of a word or phrase, especially in another language, I went to Google or a dictionary and looked it up. Not that hard! Like I learned from an early age to not just say things without understanding the meaning. And even if you didn't know and found out eventually...why get upset when people call out those who DIDN'T learn? If you learned your lesson, let these people learn theirs! Unless you didn't learn anything at all 🤨.

It's 9/11 and while it is important to remember all those who lost their lives when the towers fell (along with those on the flights and the first responders and civilians who suffered health conditions following), it is also necessary to remember the Muslim and Sikh communities that were unjustly targeted in response. How these series of threats continue even now, for a tragedy they had no part in (many who suffered from it as well, but have their pain ignored or vilified). It's important to remember 9/11 and those impacted, but also take note of who is recognized more and who isn't, and ask why.

With it being Kirkversy, it's so ironic seeing so many (shows palm) people are up in arms over the memes about his death, as if they weren't the ones creating thousands of memes based off the brutal murders and trauma Black people faced at the hands of police brutality. I ain't forget how some of them did blackface and pretended to be Trayvon Martin during his final moments, or the George Floyd challenge. And those are just two examples.

@sukibenders  no of memes i saw that were just black people suffering is actually so insane.

A lot of people love partaking in Black trauma and suffering for jokes and laughs, but then clutch their fake ass pearls when they get the same energy. You can deal it, but can't take it all a sudden.

Spoilers for BND:
          
          So, we know that Jean experiences some sensory aspects from people when she jumps, but like, imagining her after that guy got hit lowkey has me giggling. Not him being hit, but just the thought of her on the ground of Peter's apartment, Family Guy style, bc she thought he'd save him instead. I know she was down for a good minute.

I feel like the term "bird(s)" is now just becoming a buzz word and being used loosely, because, in actuality, a lot of people don't know what the term means or who ACTUALLY FITS it. It's especially side eye worthy when it's often used against women and/or victims of abuse, mostly whom are women as well. Misogyny is everywhere if you have eyes.

@equals tbh, no, not really bc i miss being able to floss quickly (specifically not having to loop & thread thru wire), and just the feeling of not having metal in my mouth + no more teeth sensitivity. I think I'll just be annoyed by the retainers here there, but will constantly remind myself to put them in so I won't forget 😭
