Submitting it twice just in case. My opinion is still the same. I am not racist. I just don’t like seeing it. I think white men are too good for black women because I just find most black women to be unattractive with bad attitudes. 

Another one.

Are you fucking kidding.

What if we took the people who put shit like this on Tumblr, put them in a line, and shot them all?

i

wha-

vat de hell is this shit?

These “I’m not racist” racists are the fucking best.

well OP i hope you die

seriously

just die

What does this person think being racist means if not thinking black people are not good enough for white people??? (And I love how they submitted it twice because it was just burning them up SO MUCH, they couldn’t take the chance that it might not get through if they just submitted it once.)

And as usual with things people claim are unpopular opinions (why do I keep typing onion for opinion?), this is actually a fairly popular one. :-/

This image is very different when (out of context) viewed from the lens of “stories about the white man hero getting the woman prize when he’s accomplished his whatever are fucked up, but even more so when the woman prize is black because there’s the added layers of history and where are my stories about… yeah, you get the idea, right?

This is totally inaccurate because that is CLEARLY the book cover from the post-HBO marketing era, not the gold cover that existed at the time of LOTR filming and you guyz that’s totally what’s important here. XD

This is awesome. It is known.

Finding myself in the weird position of having not yet seen The Hunger Games movie and having read the whole series of books; yet not having started the books until after I knew that Haymitch looked like Woody Harrelson and Cinna looked like Lenny Kravitz, who are two of the reasons I decided to finally read the books in the first place. Also finding it difficult to really identify with any of the teenage protagonists (?) and instead printing myself on Haymitch because at least he’s a survivor.

But no really, I love the whole franchise. Yup. :P

Pardon my hopeless pedantry, but I think the distinction is important: sure I’d care. I’d care because we’d have some level of shared experience, and I’d also damn well hope that any partner I had would ‘care’ that I’m trans*, because it’s an important part of who I am and how I relate to the world. A person being trans* wouldn’t in itself stop me from involving myself intimately with them, but then I doubt a trans* person saying that would help prove anything to the hypothetical friend in question. So. :)

I will call today (January 25th) my ‘traniversary’ since it’s the date I decided (in 2009) to transition to live as male and somehow ‘maniversary’ just sounds silly. I’m spelling it with one ‘n’ instead of two to indicate that it’s derived from ‘transgender’ and/or ‘transition’ rather than from That Word I don’t like or have any reason to use. Does that work? IDK. ANYWAY.

To be honest, I didn’t even make the connection that it was today until a friend who’s known me since I was using female pronouns sent me a text this morning wishing me a happy one. Which was unexpected! I guess I really don’t think of my transitional dates much anymore, and I’m not sure if leaving the importance of those landmarks behind is a good thing because it means I’m just living this present life or a bad thing because I’m starting to forget how I got here.

• Guy Behind The Counter: Why?
• Me: Because I want to smoke them.
• GBTC: How's your girlfriend?
• Me: ... I'm sorry?
• GBTC: How is your girlfriend?
• Me: Imaginary, as always.

AHAHA Europe puns.

Every time I see the tag ‘submission’ on one of those tumblrs that takes content from people sending things in I have this moment where I expect to see some lovely kinky thing and then I’m sad because that’s not what that means.

Is it just me or is Mark from RENT kind of creepy with his constant artistic filmmaker documenting of people’s lives without their explicit permission?

Also I actually do love RENT and when somebody told me they kind of thought of me as Angel(RENT) it totally made my day and that is all.

I think some of my dear straight cis friends who see me write this:

Hi, in case anyone hasn’t noticed, I’m a queer trans guy.

…and respond with this:

You’re not a trans guy, you’re the man!
If I hadn’t met you before, I probably wouldn’t know that.
I never noticed. I just always noticed that you were a cool person.

…are missing the key point that I actually think being a queer trans guy is a pretty badass thing to be and I wouldn’t change it for the world.

(I mean, it’s not their fault, the poor dears. They’ve never experienced life in multiple genders, or scribbled in colored marker all over their copy of the Laws of Attraction*.)

*Not the actual book, I mean the rules you’re handed as a child about how boys are boys and like girls and girls are girls and like boys and stuff. It’s supposed to be a metaphor.

Cannot stop watching this. That is all.

FUCK I LOOK LIKE.

Sometimes late at night Lorelei Kitteh decides it’s time to have her own Private Existential Bath between my Keyboard And Chair.

The robot is washing my hair, shut up

A hair-washing robot could offer those people a bit more independence when it comes to their daily routines. That’s a good thing. But the real reason I’m posting this here is to show you how easy it is to take research that is objectively beneficial, and make it sound deeply silly and frivolous.

Hello, gay teens.

Look at your dad.

Now back to me.

Now back at your dad.

Now back to me. Sadly, he isn’t me, but if he became more informed and laid the smackdown, he could be like me.

LOOK DOWN

BACK UP

WHERE ARE YOU?

You’re in the kitchen with the man your dad could be like.

What’s in your hand?

BACK TO ME.

It’s a pamphlet about the joys of gay sex.

Look again, the pamphlet is now condoms.

I’M A MECHANIC.
