You're Quinner
something I don't really get, about my own reactions to stuff
You're Quinner
is that the whole entire queer joke subgenre of like, punchlines about making up weird pronouns
You're Quinner
things like "my pronouns are the royal we" or "fuck my pronouns up and I'm gonna make yours was/were"
You're Quinner
I just. I hate it every single time
You're Quinner
they're like gravel on my brain
You're Quinner
I don't know why, like I understand that the joke isn't that neopronouns are stupid
You're Quinner
it just feels shitty every time I run into it, in the same way
☆ 𝕤𝕥𝕒𝕣𝕝𝕚𝕘𝕙𝕥 ☆
this is an entire mood and also why i was so hesitant to actually add neopronouns to my 'this is okay to use for me'
☆ 𝕤𝕥𝕒𝕣𝕝𝕚𝕘𝕙𝕥 ☆
it's like the sound of fingernails on a chalkboard to me
You're Quinner
it's like... as someone who does use neopronouns, it feels flippant about something very important to me
☆ 𝕤𝕥𝕒𝕣𝕝𝕚𝕘𝕙𝕥 ☆
i agree completely

yeah. You're dancing around the line between sarcasm and sincerity and there's enough people who are on the not good side of that
HOT TURKEY TAKE
that even THINKING it feels like you're courting people who just hate you, inherently
