@byttyrs the second toot in isolation can also be read as "on ground with boot on neck"
@byttyrs I would write this tbh
@byttyrs I'm sorry, I never learned how to have Small Moods
I'm supposed to be coming up with cover ideas for a synthpop EP so that's clearly going well
@patience kittenses!
contrapoints:
it's not that one *can* make intellectualized takes which go viral. with the right ingredients, privileges, and timing, others can get in on that bag
rather, it’s: what *is* one doing w/ all that brainpower (beyond re-hashing shit one's elders figured out a long time ago & would be happy to pay it forward to ya **if only one would ask**) which is materially &/or emotionally lifting up other trans people?
if you can't point to anything beyond your viral dog & pony show, then you ain't got shit
contrapoints, angry
@Alyx it achieves bitter community infighting and the retraumatising of the already vulnerable
@PaladinQuinn you are who you want to be
identity is an experimental process, you find what works and throw away what doesn't
contrapoints, angry
@Alyx sick of her addiction to ambiguity in service of playing both sides
she's not even a leftist, she created tabby to make fun of the left and now she's profiting from a fandom who misinterprets the character as a role model
I am Never Watching ContraPoints Again
@PaladinQuinn I'm sorry. Nobody should have to feel that way. You're not a monster or an aberration by any stretch of the imagination. *offers hugs*
