I’ve never seen Stevens universe and I reblogged this bc I thought we were all agreeing that this just looks like a kind soul who would want nothing more than for there to be peace and love on planet earth.

rip Tumblr live 😔

um.does anypony know what tumblr live was like

The image of the cop pointing his gun at Aaron Bushnell's burning body after he self-immolated in front of the Israeli embassy in protest of the ongoing genocide in Palestine is fucking insane.

My bad he's an Israeli embassy security guard

Y'all have you seen this????

Appreciate the fashion and please don't look in the notes unless it's to find people who you want to block.

I don’t need someone who can offer me the world. All I need is someone who has a pure heart with love for me infinitely. And this is the assurance that my soul is yearning.

a long time ago i watched a tik tok from an older trans woman, in her 60’s or 70’s. someone had commented on another video of hers asking “why don’t we ever see trans men from your generation? why aren’t they involved in activism?” and her response was “because a lot of them died.” she told stories abt the trans men she knew who committed suicide rather than be married off and forced to live as a woman, or died from medical neglect or botched abortions. “they would be here if they could, but they can’t because the world failed them.”

when i came out as trans i had an old friend from my church days message me to congratulate me and ask me for my name and pronouns. and i was shocked tbh cause he was such a head-deep-up-the-church’s ass kind of guy so i was super wary.

and after digging a little deeper i found out that he was very supportive of transness, saying that trans men are men and trans women are women

BUT

he also believed in the church’s gender roles meaning that trans women had to marry men and be submissive wives and trans men had to marry women and be strong christian husbands.

which is like ????

the weirdest and most surreal form of trans inclusive misogyny i’ve ever seen.

The newest Tumblr inside joke was to reply to any and all tutorials or guides with “OP thinks they‘re Jichael”. 

I don’t know who Jichael is.

I came up with a new saying:

"You wouldn't bake a cat just because it jumped into the oven."

It means that just having a really, really good opportunity to do something awful is not an excuse to do it. That it isn't enough that you never go out of your way to do evil, you're also supposed to go out of your way to do the right thing, even in situations where the wrong thing to do would be extremely easy and profitable, and passively allowing it to happen would be easier than going out of your way to do better than that.

listen I do not care about losing fandom spaces I do not care about not being able to read fanfic. what I AM worried about is having to Give A Fucking ID to access the internet. That is an INSANE, APOCALYPTIC breach of privacy and arguably a way bigger problem than losing TikTok. idk that’s just my opinion maybe some people can’t live without their a03. fuck kosa I’m gonna go live in the woods alone where the government will not be able to find me

friendly reminders. -abuse victims often do not have access to their IDs, if they have one at all -homeless people often do not have access to their IDs, if they have one at all -activists and journalists need to avoid identifying themselves in many cases so that they can gather and share information safely -your ID may be compromised as companies regularly fail to both protect their data and alert customers of breaches

parents need to parent their children instead of letting them run loose on the internet unsupervised. this is the failure of the parents and we should be charging them with ridiculous negligence of the basic safety of their children. the rest of us are living in the real world where free communication should be a right.

all progress is worth celebrating even if it seems insignificant at the time. it all adds up.

The type of parents who argue that simply putting food on the table and keeping a roof over their kids' head is sufficient parenting are always so shocked when their children no longer want to deal with them once they've got their own place and can buy their own groceries. Like what else did you expect to happen? You told the people who had no other choice than rely on you for food and shelter that asking for any more than that is unreasonable of them, and then they don't go to you for anything once they can get those some other way. What would they go to their parents for?

They've got food at the house.

Wow. That's... Huh. I never quite thought about it like that, but yeah, if you want people to be friends with you, you gotta be some kind of friend.
