Absolutely This! Shutting Down Art Because People Don't Like It Is A Problem, Period.

Yeah, I'm spreading this one around, too.

This one made me laugh. So I share it with the handful that follow me.

Who the hell am I to judge? Be weird here!

Right, considering the current state of corporate politics on this site, and that it seems that only those affected seem to be actively speaking on the matter, it is up to I, the only fucking cishet on tumblr, to drag this out to a wider audience.

We need to show these higher ups how much we truly value them.

She chose to be a horrible person. That's all there is to it. Done with her.

Hey, has anybody read The Worst Witch? it's a great YA series about a clumsy but earnest witch at a witch school, with broomstick-riding and cursing and potion classes and everything!

This is true; it's another variation of all the other arguments that something is bad without actually explaining WHY.

Disgust has absolutely no ethical weight. If you are basing your ethical positions on the emotion of disgust you should stop, it is entirely unjustified and leads to a huge amount of harm.

Yeah. But they don't hate the Very Rich these days, especially since the Supreme Court had been busy legalizing bribery.

For a number of years, I helped run (read "was an incredibly minor cog in the vast machine that was) an anime con at a big convention center. Being an anime con, there were, of course, tons of cosplayers, and a number of costumes that fit somewhere or another in the "Furry" spectrum. And in the con's message board, some people were *incredibly* worked up over the notions that furries would attend the convention. Like, telling us that if we didn't keep the furries out, they'd have orgies in the middle of the lobby.

It was so, so stupid.

But I can't just dismiss that as stupidity any more-- not after someone literally used chemical warfare to attack Midwest Fur Fest.

Seriously, what is WRONG with these people? Let furries be furry. I promise you that they don't have orgies in public; the hotel staff wouldn't let them and, worse, they might damage their expensive fursuits!

tired of those normies making the most reactionary videos on furries, as if the community doesn't mostly consist of queer, neurodivergent, and kink positive folks of many difficult backgrounds.

I mean, all this is so amazingly true.

First ape to go to the watering hole with a container and put some of the water in it so that they could drink more later without returning to the watering hole must have been lauded as a fucking genius.

Tardigrades are already cool; it’s neat to get human insight out of them.

Pretty sure they'd be handing someone the nails and hammer. But not getting their own hands dirty.
