Pls reblog if u vote :)

I hope this message finds you well. I am reaching out to you today with a profound sense of introspection and a newfound understanding.

I wanted to personally thank you for the sincere criticism and candid conversations you've had concerning the identification of a dear friend of mine as a transautist. Your words echoed in her mind, compelling her to deeply reflect and question her self-perception. I also had the same thoughts upon revisiting your arguments.

In light of this reflection, I have realized that the label "transautistic" no longer resonates with my experiences. I've felt a growing alignment with the autistic community not merely as an ally, but on a more personal and intrinsic level.

With humility and respect, I want to tell you that I now identify as a self-diagnosed autistic individual. This evolution in my understanding is largely thanks to your thoughtful input and honest dialogue.

I understand the gravity of this self-identification and I am aware of the responsibility that comes with it. I'm committed to fostering understanding, promoting acceptance, and advocating for the autistic community with the respect and sincerity it deserves.

I'm deeply sorry for any confusion or discomfort my previous identification may have caused you and I am grateful for your patience and guidance throughout my journey.

Your influence has made a significant impact on my path of self-discovery, and I wanted you to know how much I appreciate your input and understanding.

Thank you, once again, for being a part of my journey.

Hello, I'm happy to hear from you. I'm glad you have thought about my words to your friend and I am happy that you have come to this conclusion and I'm glad my words have not offended you.

We are all wrong sometimes and while that is hard to come to terms with, I'm happy that you have come to terms with that and grown as a person.

I believe personal growth is very important and no one should be hindered from that.

I'm happy to be a part of your journey :)

(As a side note : you should probably delete a lot of your old posts. Not everyone will take too kindly to this revelation especially with the old things on your profile as well as your likes tab being completely visible.)

Reading the writing side of Tumblr makes me realise that I gotta carry on writing the fanfic I left behind on wattpad. Thanks Tumblr! <3

If you’re just as displeased about the organization that runs AO3 kicking someone for being pro-Palestine (source 1) (source 2) as I am, here are some things you can do…

Use the OTW contact form and the AO3 feedback form to voice your displeasure. Additionally, inform them exactly how you will be withdrawing support until this issue is resolved.

Stop donating to AO3. This is an obvious one, but important. If you have previously donated, but will no longer be doing so, be sure to say it in your feedback form submission!

Switch fanfiction sites. Both for reading, AND for uploading. Alternatives include WattPad, Fanfiction.net, tumblr itself, or even hosting your fanfiction on a site of your own, via Neocities. Don’t want to stop using AO3’s tagging system? Check out SquidgeWorld, which uses AO3’s open-source code. It even has a rule against CSEM! While AO3 doesn’t get money from ad revenue, seeing the number of visitors drop will certainly get the message across.

Encourage others to do the same, and spread the word!

i feel like tumblr NEEDS to know about Dr. Ally Louks, and the term "Olfactory Ethics"

(long post incoming)

storytime/timeline:

on november 27, 2024, an excited English Literature PhD recipient posted a picture of herself with her thesis, titled:

"Olfactory Ethics: The Politics of Smell in Modern and Contemporary Prose"

as you can see (on the bottom row, above), the tweet has been viewed over 119 MILLION times, and has received over 250k likes. unfortunately, within days (most of the replies dating december 1st), she had garnered what seems like every possible insecure man with a twitter account to post their vitriol and rage concerning the fact that a woman is clearly more well-researched than them. regardless, she tanked it ALL with kindness and with a smile:

AND I MEAN VITRIOL (queen of making boundaries clear):

(inserting reading break for the timeline's space's sake):

here's her abstract:

and in case the abstract wasn't clear, she has since (date: december 16th) taken the time to re-summarize her thesis for the layman (yes that is a link! click it! 3min read!)

she has repeatedly shown just the perfect amount of kindness and understanding for those who are simply Not Comprehending (mostly december 1st):

(the chatGPT hate in the next one is my favorite:)

has upheld an incredibly high moral standard of how she interacts with the situation (december 2nd):

ONE OF MY FAVORITE THINGS: regardless of this crap, she made it clear that as a professor, her FIRST priority at the end of the semester would be taking care of them (december 3rd)

(CAN SHE GET MORE BASEDDDDDDDDDD)

she stays both 1) educating the masses, and 2) engaging with pop culture as much as a normal person would (december 9th-17th):

she also supports a free palestine (WHO IS SURPRISED. NOT ME.) ((december 15th))

here's the BEST FREAKING THING ABOUT THIS. since this all has happened, RANDOM TWITTER USERS, UNKNOWINGLY, have REPEATEDLY proven her thesis to be true,

again,

and again,

AND AGAIN.

EVEN CARDI B DO YOU HEAR MEEEEEEEE

COMBATING MISOGYNOIR WITH HER OWN BARE HANDSSSSS

oh she knows she's mother

here's some more she never saw/commented on (INCLUDING SOME FROM TODAY. IT IS STILL GOING ON. EVERY SINGLE DAY LIKE CLOCKWORK SOMEONE POSTS SOMETHING THAT PROVES HER POINTS ABOUT OLFACTORY ETHICS):

THE WICKED MOVIE REFERENCE HELLO

apparently, OTHER academics are mad at her for being so famous and influential, but she stays unbothered (december 16th, and TODAY, december 19th):

and she's partially getting her post-doc on how people's sense of smell has been altered (december 1st):

and the best part is!

all of these screenshots i've collected are only a SAMPLE, illustrating dr. louks' indomitably kind and ethical character.

anyway. i want ALL of y'all to start saying, out loud, "olfactory ethics", or even better, "dr. louks was RIGHT" (something something women's names are erased something) every time you see something that plays into her thesis. never let her influence die. THINK THROUGH what you're REALLY saying when you comment on the smell of something, or how your perception has been shaped by society. USE THIS PHOTO IF YOU HAVE TO:

follow her on twitter (@DrAllyLouks) or bluesky (idk her handle, if someone tells me i'll edit it in)

AND SAY HER NAME!! DR. ALLY LOUKS
