Out of all the shit in the Honda Odyssey sex scene, I see no one talking about when Wade got thrown out of the car and Logan beckons him back into it. That is not the kind of taunting angry Wolverine does, it is however inherently flirtatious. In this essay I will outline why the Honda odyssey is not the only thing fucking hard-

This is my first time posting on tumblr ...

Zoro still smiles and laughs a lot, and the reason why he doesn't do it as uproariously as he used to in the beginning is because he's not as surprised by his happiness anymore send tweet.

Hello tumblr, this is a poem I wrote about myself, tws in tags

it took me so long to realize that "orz" looks like a little guy lying on the floor in despair

You don't need dysphoria in order to be trans.

Why?

Because you can be trans by having gender euphoria or gender incongruence.

Gender euphoria means that a person gets a euphoric feeling from thinking about their gender identity.

Gender incongruence means that you feel like your AGAB does not fit your gender identity, with or without dysphoria or euphoria. It just means it's different. There doesn't have to be an emotion attached to it.

So, there are many ways someone can be trans. And pretending that being trans is only pain and hell and suffering is a really bad fucking take. Gender euphoria is real and you can have it. You are not doomed to live a life hating yourself.

More and more I feel like people who “don’t like small talk” because it’s meaningless are the way they are not because they’re pretentious, but because they simply have no clue how to interact with people successfully and in a way that respects their boundaries and makes them comfortable.  Some people I know have this really bad habit of just being like “Small talk is meaningless so just tell me about your deepest feelings.  Are you happy in life?”  That is a wildly uncomfortable question for most people to answer and the point of small talk is to steer the conversation there gradually and in a way that allows them to deflect if they don’t want to go there.  Like, ideally small talk can go like this:

“What are you up to today?

Nothing, just chilling.

Are you off work then?

Yeah, I always have Saturdays off.

Oh that’s cool.  I wish my job let me do that.  What do you do?

I’m a [insert job here].

Oh that’s cool!  Do you like it?”

Boom, you’ve very quickly led up to a large, meaningful topic, asking them if they’re satisfied with a major part of their life, by both of you elaborating on information they’ve already willingly provided, and in a way that allows them to backpedal or steer elsewhere if they’re getting uncomfortable with the direction by allowing multiple other exit routes (for example if they were uncomfortable with the focus being on themselves, they could say “I’m a [insert job here].  What about you?” and suddenly now the focus is on you.)  And they can also choose to answer in a way that’s still distant and polite for comfort (like “eh, it pays the bills.  What about you?”), or meaningful for a genuine connection (like “it’s very fulfilling, I love XYZ” or “the monotony gets to me, I need mental stimulation”)

Small talk is not meaningless.  People don’t talk about the weather or sports because they’re just so deeply passionate about those topics or don’t have anything meaningful to say.  It’s testing the waters to find common ground to open up a bigger conversation without the risk of wildly barreling past whatever boundaries the person has.  Which I think is honestly why people sometimes get uncomfortable around people who aggressively skip small talk, because they’re violating unspoken social rules in a way neither of them usually can fully verbalize, and the person who “hates small talk” interprets this as failing to make a connection because they’re more intellectual than everyone else, or interested in different things, or just too cerebral for the common man to understand.

Don't mind me just learning about AAVE.

Latinx? Latino/a? Hispanic?

What’s the difference between Hispanic, Latino, Latinx and Latine?

People often want to know which term — Hispanic, Latino or Latinx — is the most respectful. But it really depends on the person and context.

“Hispanic” refers to any of the peoples in the Americas and Spain who speak Spanish or are descended from Spanish-speaking communities. It was coined in the 1970s by the U.S. Census Bureau to offer a pan-ethnic name for peoples such as Puerto Ricans, Mexican Americans, Cuban Americans and others, whose social, economic and political needs were often ignored.

According to UC Berkeley's Cristina Mora, before the term “Hispanic” was adopted, the census enumerators would often check off people such as Mexican Americans as “White” on the census forms.

In contrast to Hispanic, the term Latino describes any person with ancestry in Latin America, a politically defined region usually unified by the predominance of Romance languages. This definition usually includes Portuguese-speaking Brazil and French-speaking Haiti, but excludes Spain.

But what about Latinx??

For some, the pronunciation of the word is cryptic: la-TEENGKS? LA-tin-EX? For others, it represents a kind of language imperialism by imposing a new English word onto a Spanish word and rendering it unpronounceable.

Latinx is essentially a non-binary form of Latino or Latina. The suffix “-x” replaces the “-o” or “-a” corresponding to masculine or feminine, allowing the word to resist the gender binary. (In Spanish-speaking countries, the term Latine with the suffix “-e” is circulating as an alternative to the -o/a binary.)

As we turn the corner into the month of Hanukkah, a reminder for the gentiles:

Hanukkah is NOT “Jewish Christmas!”

No. No no no.

1) Christmas is one of the two most theologically important holidays in Christianity. Hanukkah doesn’t even crack the top ten, at least theologically speaking, in Judaism. (I would not, of course, denigrate those for whom Hanukkah is an important point of connection to Judaism, as that’s a different conversation.)

2) Christmas celebrates the miraculous birth of the Christian deity (at least into one of the deity’s three component parts) on Earth. Hanukkah celebrates a military victory by observant, unassimilated Jews over the Assyrian Greeks and assimilated Jews and the reinstatement of a Jewish monarchy. 

Birth vs Lots of Death (albeit of the Hasmoneans’ enemies).

3) For a very long time, Christmas has included the giving of gifts (though the form varied of course between times and cultures). Hanukkah didn’t, for much of its existence, beyond the provision of gelt (that is, money) to children. Many American and westernized Jews give gifts to their children these days, but that was largely borne out of making Hanukkah more appealing to make celebrating Christmas less appealing and even now it is far from universal.

4) Christians cannot work on Christmas (unsurprisingly, given its importance as a holiday). Jews can work on Hanukkah (though they may leave early to light the Hanukkiah).

4a) Side note: Hanukkiah is the specific name for the candelabraum we use for Hanukkah (9 branches). Menorah translates to “lamp” and traditionally has seven branches but need not, necessarily. All Hanukkiyot are menorot, not all menorot are Hanukkiyot.

Now, none of this means that we don’t love and enjoy Hanukkah. We do! Fried latkes and sufganiyot, dairy products, child-appropriate gambling, songs….what could be better? But it is very, very much not “Jewish Christmas”.

I think most non-Jews don't know/understand American synagogues are under siege, having to pay huge amounts for security, both to have armed guards, but also installing bulletproof windows and doors and putting up anti-ramming barriers. It's getting really bad out there and I never see anyone who isn't Jewish talking about it.

leftist antisemites are really everywhere on this hellsite making & reblogging their posts like “the Jews have too much power and privilege and actually their very recent genocide was not that bad compared to what my group experiences and antisemitism doesn’t even exist in my country and especially not in liberal spaces”

I love it when people try to claim representation in fiction is being taken “too far” to the point where it’s no believable. They’re like: 

“What’s next, a mixed-race immigrant on the autism spectrum?” Hi, my name is Rachel, also known as Rachna, and I’m a mixed-race immigrant on the autism spectrum. 

“What’s next, a transgender Latino man with chronic pain?” What, you mean my former colleague, Marco? 

“What’s next, a Black Jewish lesbian?” Bitch, I know I three Black Jewish lesbians, WHAT’S YOUR FUCKING POINT?

There's something very insidious about how trans men are told by cis allies how they're "allowed to be feminine", almost as if they don't want us to be too masculine, and how this doesn't.... happen for trans women.

Like, trans women aren't told by allies that if they're masculine, it's okay. That trans women who are butch, who have love for things that are considered "traditionally masculine", are fucking women, too, and it doesn't make them any less women.

Why is that? 🤔 Hmm, I wonder why cis people's alliance only works to further trans people into hyperfeminization, which is considered by radfems to be a "safe gender" HMMMMMMM I WONDER -

Anyway, trans butch women are the fucking backbone of society and if you feel "uncomfortable" with them because they don't adhere to the hyper feminine standards that yall have imposed on trans women in order to exist, I'll make damn sure your "uncomfortable" fucking sitting down.
