Oh, another fun thing.
Yesterday waiting for the train I was getting hit on and the guy goes “you got a man?” “Nope, got a girl.” “A GIRL? YOU EVER BEEN WITH A MAN?”
“Yep. Didn’t really want to after that.”
Guy spits on the ground and goes “DAMN, THAT LIMP DICK RUINED IT FOR ALL OF US!” and walks away.
Nice.
Tell me again that it’s ‘illogical’ to be scared to death of straight men. Go on. I dare you.
ah yes…. the smell of victory
I don’t want this.JESUS CHRIST I JUST HAD A STROKE
So, this is a thing that happened.
Yeah.
And people are defending Aries’ actions left and right.
Like, I don’t give a fuck if dude is supposed to be a heel; this isn’t cool. It’s foul. It’s disgusting. It’s rape culture in action and any condoning of this is heinous and repugnant.
Shame on the IWC for supporting this shit and shame on AA for not realizing where to draw the fucking line.
I don’t know what an Iggy Azalea is but it sounds like something I’d rather opt out on.
Asshole/country singer Brad Paisley has released a new song with LL Cool J called “Accidental Racist”
Yes, it’s as bad as you guessed. In “Accidental Racist”, Paisley discusses the hardships he’s faced as a white man who just wants to wear a Confederate flag shirt without being mistaken for a racist. It’s hard out there for a Lynyrd Skynyrd fan.
The chorus goes (yes really):
I’m just a white man comin’ to you from the south land tryin’ to understand what it’s like not to be.
I’m proud of where I’m from but not everything we’ve done. It ain’t like you and me can rewrite history.
Our generation didn’t start this nation. We’re still pickin’ up the pieces, walkin’ on eggshells, fightin’ over yesterday.
Caught between southern pride and southern blame.
And then after that LL Cool J raps ”If you don’t judge my du-rag/I won’t judge your red flag” and “If you don’t judge my gold chains/I’ll forget the iron chains”. Because those things are completely synonymous.
You can listen to the whole horrible song here.
Here’s a little something in case you guys wanted to be creeped out today.
LL…what the FUCK?!
LL…are times that hard? Are they really? Maynne…
Cuz lawd knows it’s sooooo hard being a White man in the South!
“if you don’t judge my gold chains/I’ll forget the iron chains”
“if you don’t judge my gold chains/I’ll forget the iron chains”
“if you don’t judge my gold chains/I’ll forget the iron chains”
Dear white people, I assure you, not ALL of us are willing to have our history erased to have your current acceptance.
Please also note that it was perfectly acceptable for Paisley to say he was proud of where he came from but LL is supposed to forget his history. Correction, LL is perfectly willing to forget his history.
Black Republican strikes again.
A WrestleMania with no Divas in-ring representation whatsoever?
AARON
SHAME ON YOU
REVERSE SEXISM AND REVERSE RACISM ARE NOT REAL
YOU SOUND LIKE A MEN’S RIGHTS ACTIVIST
Kumbaya bullshit fucking fuck.
“Let’s just totally ignore all historical and societal context b/c wE ALL BWEED RWED DON POINT OUT MY BIGOTED ATTITUDES FOR MY COMFORT”
Is this a joke?

Yeahwhen it comes to his stance on Azaleas homo/transphobia it makes me cringe, especially since his stanning is so blatant.
That’s another thing. I can barely look at her either because, last I checked, she still hasn’t apologized. I’ve cut loose other celeb faves for less (r.i.p. my years of GaGa stanning). And it hurts even more because HEY, you’re a person that that word has been used against. You’ve actually even stated that it’s TRIGGERING for you. But when your fave uses it in the exact same insulting way it received its negative connotation, you have no problem with it. That reeks of bullshit to me.
And it’s like you’re* talking out the side of your neck and everything filtered through you seems disingenuous and phony, like you’re trying to be the exemplary SJW instead of just a decent fucking person with some empathy and some sense.
Not long ago, someone had to school me hard about my flagrant usage of the b-word. It was a bitter pill to swallow and I kicked and screamed and pouted until I realized I was doing exactly what they* wanted me to. Now when I look at other people and they exhibit that kind of initial “how could you?!” response, I wonder if they’re ever going to have that “damn, I was wrong as fuck.” moment.
There’s a reason I don’t reblog and follow and like things from certain people. Also, anyone who thinks they have a patent on any slice of culture upsets me on principle — like there’s only ONE way to be anything.
I just… I find it hard just accepting that people like that are out there just operating, business as usual, while I’m just sitting here flabbergasted by their past behavior.
(*the generic you which covers all people who do this kind of thing.)
(*the generic they who helped construct the systems of power and oppression that constantly pit marginalized people against one another.)
Can someone please explain to me why critiquing things for their lack of diversity, their lack of purposeful and thoughtful inclusion of different kinds of people, or their complete erasure of certain groups is a bad thing?
Why is championing diversity and equality something that ‘sours’ an experience for others?
Oh. Are you upset that people outside of your sphere of relevance find fault in the shit that helped mold you into the person you are? Do you take it personally when someone critiques something you enjoy for being racist, misogynist, or otherwise problematic? Why? Do you think they’re calling YOU that? More importantly, if you’re defending the absence or oversight of these things, does that mean you’re giving your approval to the problematic things people are discussing?
Do you think adding diversity for diversity’s sake would cheapen a medium somehow? Do you think discussing gender roles in animated films from the 40s in comparison to those of the films made today is null and pointless?
Do you go out of your way to defend a film, television show, or celebrity when someone calls them to task? Do you ignore what people who have been forced into the margins are saying because, ultimately, ‘it’s just their opinion’… And we all know that every opinion is created equal, right?
Do you think things like race discussion, sexism, and homophobia (read: heterosexim) aren’t ‘big issues’ anymore? Do you think people who actually care about these things for deeply personal reasons just show up to be ‘debbie downers’ to the rest of you contented folks?
Do you just wish people who champion social justice would just shut up?
Because if so, you’re on the wrong blog and I don’t understand you.

Or anything mentioning ‘Devil’s Advocate’ or ‘But you’re not like them!’ You don’t know how many times I’ve heard that shit and it brings me to tears. Of rage.
