It’s like watching a car repeatedly drive straight into a wall. It’s unexplainable, it looks like it hurts a lot, but ultimately it ends up being darkly, ironically funny.
From my personal experience being an American on tumblr is like being the person in the BACK of the car praying that the person driving will STOP ramming into the wall.
A lot of us know this shit is stupid and we’re looking out the window like “LOOK THOSE OTHER CARS ARE DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD LETS BE LIKE THEM”
But the driver is like “FUCK YOU! BUILT FORD TOUGH! USA USA USA DONT LIKE IT, GET OUT!” but the doors are locked and the car is now smoking and threatening to catch fire.
Reblogging for the followup comment! ‘cos that’s exactly what it’s like.
Stan Lee: Spider-man is not allowed to be bisexual, Andrew Garfield tried to make him bi so I had his movies cancelled and forbid any future spider-men from being written as bi or gay.
Tom Holland: Cool. Here is a list of male coworkers and characters I personally want to fuck.
straight ships with trans characters arent “"technically straight”“, theyre straight, they’re hetero, let straight trans people have their fucking sexualities, im screaming
a straight trans woman and a straight cis woman are both straight. a straight man attracted to a trans woman is still straight. don’t delegitimize trans people’s sexualities and genders, and don’t act like trans people in different-gender relationships aren’t “"representation”“, or whatever the fuck
