I feel like people need to get more comfortable looking at media and going, "this was probably made for a good reason, but it is not working for me," instead of trying to come up with some reason why it's worthless trash that shouldn't exist.

In addition to the blurb above, I'm a recovering mathematician, Jewish, and autistic as fuck--those didn't alliterate
Sometimes I write poems, mostly in English and Spanish
I feel weird putting my age in my bio but I am in fact a Grown Up if you were worried

Oh, sooo true. Had a weird comment in a FB thread discussing other social options that was like "I dunno, co host gives me weird tankie vibes" and I was like "... huh?? I'm pretty sure I'd notice tankie vibes if I saw them given they'd be rather transmedicalist, racist, and antisemitic while 'saying' they're pro-socialism"...
Granted, I've surrounded myself with a largely cool pool of folks, probably >50% trans, that I know aren't tankie and don't exactly go looking through tags for such folks, but I find it hard to take one look at the site and say "them's tankie vibes" when you have to basically explicitly seek such content to get such a vibe..?
