you might be marked red on shiningami eyes because of the moths actually! Or more accurately the butterflies. I filter posts based a some key words including “terf” and consequently anything with “terf” in it gets blocked such as “butterfly,” “waterfall,” and “monsterfucker.” Like so:

The post in question is reblogged by my girlfriend from my own side blog that has “butterfly” in the title

that is quite honestly the funniest thing ever

Here's a tumblr post I found with additional information about what's been happening.

Here's another relevant thread

I'm rather embarrassed to only be finding about this now considering the earliest complaints I found with limited searching date back to a month ago. Needless to say, it has become fully unreliable, so it's time to remove it.

Deviating from my usual posting content to share this, since I'm under the impression the Sky community is trans-friendly and thus may or may not be in the audience of people who use Shinigami Eyes.

As the person above me mentions, this not just a fluke. I had a look and the Firefox review page has very consistent comments noting discrimination against the non-binary, intersex, transmasc, and people of color. I dug around a bit more and found some similar complaints dating from around 2 months ago (potentially even 6?)

Have you seen this? I'm pretty sure you use the eyes

I posted a few days ago about how I Uninstalled it for this exact reason. Glad to reiterate: Shinigami Eyes is hostile to Intersex & Transmasc ppl. It's actively bad and i no one recommend using it.

funniest thing about living in the uk is there's like 3 transmasc healthcare specialists for the entire country so whenever you meet a trans guy who's had surgery you can be like "which one did you go for?" the same way you'd ask someone if they prefer butter or margarine on their toast. second funniest thing about living in the uk is we have a town called cockermouth and it's in cumbria.

can't even imagine what a working day must look like for one of those specialists. i like to picture him coming in and there's a row of transmascs lined up in front of him and he just raises his scalpel and cuts off all their tits with one sweep of his arm like a samurai

I just saw the most Galaxy Brain gender take ever, from a cis man on reddit

[ID: a screenshot of a comment from reddit, with no username visible. The commend reads: This doesn’t make a ton of sense to me either. Setting aside the question of whether gender/sex is assigned or observed at birth, the gender I was assigned at birth was ‘boy.’ The gender I have now is ‘man’. Boys and men have different gender roles, and few adults identify as boys anymore. From this standpoint, every adult has a different gender than the one they had at birth. End ID]

Framing “girl” and “boy” as separate genders from “woman” and “man” is such an amazing take. it’s a framework that accommodates and explains so many trans experiences. Some trans people never were their AGAB. Some feel like they were their AGAB, but that that changed (usually when puberty hits, which is when you start “becoming a man/woman”. The accepted societal path is that girls grow up to into women, and boys grow up into men. But some girls grow up into men, and some boys grow up into women. This guy was a boy who grew up into a man, which generally works out pretty well for people. Some boys and girls grow up into people who aren’t men or women, even! It’s like this random cis guy skipped right over transgender 101, 102, 201, etc. and stumbled directly into Transgender Nirvana.

hiiiii everyone please sign this it has until the 15th! if the amendment gets passed it'll make it a lot easier to erode trans rights in the uk

#this won't just make it easier to erode rights#it'll remove them all completely#by redefining sex to mean biological sex it'll remove any protection based on gender identity#even if a trans person has a GRC it'll be rendered meaningless by the definitions in this amendment#it's essentially a new bathroom bill#single sex spaces based on biological sex#they're trying to legislate trans people out of existence via @hamenthotep

yeah actually reblog this version sorry i was summarising it based on what i could remember because i wanted to just get the post out
