others have said but since i am also someone involved in this, please remember that the crux of this issue is elpis/vi’s racist behavior towards black people on particular. i don’t want to downplay being physically and violently threatened, but the main issue at the end of this is racism

worth remembering, David Lynch directed “fix your hearts or die” specifically at transphobes. it wasn’t a generic “no mean people allowed” statement, it was said by his Twin Peaks character in defense of a trans woman he cared for and deeply respected.

i’m going to assume the lina she’s referring to her is me so :) 1) i am dating a half black man 2) not once have i ever wanted to come off as a white savior as a white latina. i have always made sure that bipoc have always had a space to speak and let them have the room

I don't think I ever posted this miku over here so, she

y'shtola: do you believe merlwyb bloefhiswyn has girl power minfilia: yes, of course :) y'shtola: do you think she effectively utilized girl power by funnelling money into privateer death squads in western la noscea

i really hope yet another belly catches on because i feel uHHHH CRAZY.

Cis people need to pay attention to the way they communicate this. They freely admit that after all of their research, they came up with zero evidence that HRT was harmful. Then they banned it anyway, claiming their inability to find a reason is a reason in of itself.

since orientalism is being discussed in xiv circles yet again i'm urging you to read "Restarting Orientalism" by Wael B. Hallaq. It is available online for free traditionalhikma.com/wp-content/u...

many people have recommended edward said's work which ofc is vital to understanding orientalism but id also like to recommend the colonial harem by malek alloula, which focuses more specifically on how orientalism effects women and this very sexual image of racialized women that keeps cropping up

Im glad this still goes around and it does make me laugh but I would like to add: you should all actually read Said not due to the racist bellydancer costumes but due to the fact that your tax dollars are facilitating the murder of civilians who are deemed part of "the Orient"

Of course! The sexualisation is, of course, a major issue. Middle Eastern women have been fetishised for centuries (see: harem tropes + the reduction of bellydancing to seduction rather than art). However, it’s also how Orientalism homogenises entire regions and cultures. (1/6)

okay in the interest of combating the orientalism they've released, if you have made clothing mods for west asian, north african, and central asian cultures, please drop them down below! let's boost respectful and accurate representation!

Also im using this as a thread to throw down my middle eastern inspired mashups (also middle east, MENA, SWANA, whatever u use most people are familiar w middle east)

i swear i am very normal about them #ffxiv

behind the scenes #ffxiv

Israel, immediately after vaporizing a bunch of little girls:

I think the bigger security risk is the gestapo she runs that murders people for standing in the street and kidnaps children to put them in concentration camps. But sure, if the shoe thing gets her shitcanned, do what you gotta do.

i put lyse in short hair and felt the presence of divine queer providence

for all it matters from a bluesky gamer account like me: no war in iran. this attack is horrific and all decent people of the world must oppose it with no hesitation or equivocation about iran's government or nuclear programs. that's irrelevant to the pointless depravity of this bloodshed

fwiw, historically, times of progress are often met w/ extremist pushbacks before progressive change truly takes hold. saw this with reconstruction > jim crow > civil rights, w/ labor movements, w/ the waves of feminism that come and go. we will see a better future. we will make it.

Very good thread about White Kratos

>representatives of the will of the star >looks inside >selected internally with no sign of any democratic procedure what did amaurot mean by this

This is what I need cis folks to understand. It's been a decade. Imagine living TEN FUCKING YEARS watching as a blatant, artificial campaign to erase your personhood, your identity and your safety chugs along, increasing in power every single day, and most people don't care or dismiss it

it becomes increasingly clear that people think orientalism is like, the acceptable form of racism because it's pretty

Might as well reupload the memory of screams of agony #FFXIV

This user's also made a bsky list compiling everyone they can find from this list as well it's utterly disgusting to see bsky.app/profile/did:...

So many on that dang list. Gonna be a min to get through them all and make sure I block them. If you are on that list. Remove yourself and block me. drive.google.com/file/d/15Duo...

i was robbed at gunpoint a month ago and need to recoup wages lost due to stress-induced (chronic) migraines after the fact. hoping for $694. help a disabled transfem out. also protip don't get robbed while poor ko-fi.com/straysinner #mutualaid

Since Polygon is leaving it out of the headline: Epic Games partnered with The Game Awards to put money into the pocket of a bigot who uses her wealth to further the genocide of trans people through lawsuits and legislation. Every 'free' game gives money directly to JKR, and they are complicit.
