Vexed to nightmare

It is genuinely bizarre that we’ve become acclimatized to right wingers throwing a tantrum every time a black person (particularly a black woman) is cast in something, but are also supposed to pretend that this is not racism but related to some other substantive concern.

friends, please: don’t use transreads dot org they claim to support trans authors, but take our entire texts, post them for free, fundraise off it, and have the gall to claim it’s about preservation they are literally taking money from trans creators and make it harder for us to keep creating

It is incredibly funny to post "hey, this was my read on this thing that happened in <insert media> but it was nicely ambiguous, excited to find out what direction it takes" and to have 19 year olds in the comments immediately with "YOU ARE WRONG AND STUPID" 🤣
