Eclipse
Yall…. thank you for liking my Harold drawing. I feel the love!
I am in FL so I got to see a half-eclipse but, it was still a cool thing to witness! Got a pixelated phone photo
yo if youre a cis woman who considers yourself an ally to trans women please take a second to read this
stop engaging with terfs, its not helping. it has never helped. stop reblogging terf posts to poke fun at them, stop directly engaging in arguments with terfs for the sake of getting off some petty insult or telling them off, youre not proving anything and youre not going to change their minds. doing something to “piss off terfs” does not help trans women, it just frustrates terfs, who will then take their frustrations out on trans women. terfs might tell u off or insult u but ultimately they see u as a poor victim who has been Brainwashed By The Trans Rights Activists™, youre not a target, youre not the one who has to deal with their anger, we are.
if u want to help trans women do things to uplift and support trans women, if u see a trans women is being harassed on this site by terfs throw some positivity her way. dont rile up ppl who are attacking someone else just to earn radical discourse brownie points.
Anti-terf activities that can actually be helpful for cis allies to engage in:
- If someone makes a post about “please don’t reblog from (popular artist) cause they’re a terf,” feel free to reblog it! Help spread information about who terfs are.
- If a trans woman makes a post detailing why terf arguments are absurd nonsense, feel free to reblog it! Help spread information about why terf ideas are bullshit.
- If you see a post like that, or a general positivity post for trans women, and there’s some terf being hateful on it, just reblog from OP! Even if someone further down in the thread “totally destroyed” the terf’s argument! Don’t give terfs a platform on your blog.
- If you see a post from a cis lesbian or feminist blog you don’t recognize, give it a quick look before you reblog! This goes doubly true if the post talks about people in terms of “males” and “females” or the person has words like “radical”/”rad” or “female” in their url or blog title. Put in the effort to not reblog from terfs so trans women don’t have to do it for you!
- If someone close to you turns out to be a terf, cut them off and tell them why. Don’t think you can be an ally to us and still be friends with the people who want us dead.
But like the OP said, making a big show about arguing with terfs and mocking them doesn’t actually help us at all. I know it’s easier and flashier to fight a big evil enemy, but it’s better and more important to help the trans women who’re being hurt by them and by the world we live in.
Love and support trans women before you worry about fighting terfs.

Beep boop! I look for accidental haiku posts. Sometimes I mess up.
This is officially the best response and a big ass mood right there
At all the people in the notes saying: “Unless it’s this” and “Certain types of shippers need to die” this is fucking targeted at you.

“The action genre has been abused by the system. You know, a quick buck. Mindless shit. I wanted to give it soul. Real trauma. Real pain. You guys deserve that. I wanted to infuse it with a little bit of culture.”
“I really wanted to touch on the caste system in India. You have the poor at the bottom, slaving away in the kitchens. Then you go up to the land of the kings. Above them is God — a manmade God that’s polluting and corrupting religion.”

It... it got funded! Very funded. O_O;
Pushups are the equivalent of benching like 75% of your bodyweight and most people who aren't focused on strength training would have trouble randomly lifting half their bodyweight with no training.
If I was going based on these trainers and was six months into training, lifting 120lbs would be a solid goal for a 3-rep set. Doing a full push-up would have me lifting about 180lbs from the starting position, and doing that ten times with good form is genuinely difficult if you don't regularly train for it.
It's also going to be more difficult for people who are fat, or who are top-heavy, or who are tall.
So "I am not focused on any kind of intensive lifting" is a perfectly valid response and please don't feel bad if you can't do ten push-ups, that shit is hard.
(If you want to train to do push-ups, the higher your hands are in the starting position the less weight you are lifting - start with wall push-ups then move to counter height push-ups then move to bench-height, then bent knee, then full push-ups. If you want to add weight, move your feet up higher and higher until you're doing hand stand push-ups. It's all leverage!)
