My Girlfriend Got Kicked Out By Her Mom

Today, my girlfriend’s abusive and homophobic mother told her that she’s kicking her out of her apartment. She’s keeping her from taking out money and my girlfriend doesn’t have a job yet. She’s going to be living with me but this puts her in an even more financially unstable situation and one that is potentially dangerous to her mental health.

I want to thank everybody who donated to her but now she needs more help than ever. Please consider donating, even just a small amount. You can even request a small sketch from her if you donate. If you can’t, please boost this post. She needs help and all we want is to just want to move away from here.

This is where you can donate and if for some reason the link doesn’t work, there’s a donation button on her tumblr @myghostparty. Here is her commission info. 

This is a tragic and horrible situation, and we’ll be grateful for any support. Please help us.

UPDATE: things between my girlfriend and her mom have smoothed themselves out to some degree and she’s opted to keep living with her mother for the time being. However, she’s come back to a stressful household where she has to relinquish much of her control over her life in order to keep living there. She is unable to live with me because of my housing situation and I am trying hard as I can to save up money and find better work so we can get out of here faster. Please donate if you can; we miss each other so much and I don’t want my girlfriend to be sad anymore. There’s a donation button on her blog @myghostparty and here is her commission info. You can also commission me if you’d like, anything helps. Even If everyone who reblogs this donates 50 cents, we’ll be moving forward in a significant way. Please help us out if you can.

Desexify sex. Talk about it frankly. Don’t treat it as a big mysterious forbidden secret, a big rite of passage, a feminist achievement, or some kind of holy bonding ritual. Sex is a hobby. Like any other hobby, it has different meanings for different people in different contexts. Like any other hobby, some people like to do it with their romantic partners, with friends, or with other people, and some people like to do it rarely or not at all. Like any other hobby, some people find it very meaningful, some use it as a way to bond with their partner, and some people just think it’s fun or do it because they’re bored. Like any other hobby, sex is not necessary to have a good and happy relationship. Some people have it, some people don’t. There are a lot of hobbies you can share with your partner; this one isn’t the only option or the most important one. Etc.

GATHER ‘ROUND CHILDREN AND LET ME TELL YOU A THING OR TWO ABOUT THIS GLORIOUS BOOK.

I HAVE OWNED THIS BOOK FOR A WHILE BUT NOW I’M SHARING IT WITH TUMBLR BECAUSE WE’RE ALL DRAGON-LOVING-FUCKS. 

IN THIS BOOK

IN THIS MOTHERFUCKIN MASTER PIECE OF A BOOK

THE GIRL SEEKS OUT THE DRAGON BECAUSE SHE WANTS TO ESCAPE HER BORING LIFE AS A PRINCESS.

I DON’T THINK YOU GUYS HEARD ME. 

THE GIRL WANTS TO BE WITH THE DRAGON.

AND THIS AINT EVEN IN A ROMANTIC WAY. SHE JUST RESPECTS THE DRAGON SO FUCKING MUCH

THERE IS EVEN A PART WHERE SHE REPEATEDLY TELLS A PRINCE TO STOP TRYING TO SAVE HER BECAUSE SHE WANTS TO BE THERE AND THE PRINCE JUST ISN’T GETTING IT BECAUSE HE’S NEVER HEARD OF A PRINCESS WANTING TO BE AMONG DRAGONS BEFORE. 

LIKE I CAN’T EVEN RIGHT NOW JUST READ THE DAMN THING. 

THIS IS THE MOST READ BOOK I OWN AND I READ A LOT OF BOOKS AND HAVE MANY FAVORITES SO Y'ALL KNOW THIS BOOK MUST BE GOOD. 

i have read it a total of 39749823792837493 times. 

Every once in a while a post comes around that reminds me of how important these books were to wee me, and I have to reblog it so that other people can find this very important series.

What I absolutely love about this book is how the princess learns all these random things when she’s bored being a princess and then she uses every one of those skills while she works for the dragon. Her skill at making dessert got her the job.

She reads latin - great for organising old texts!

She fences - well, sometimes the princes won’t go away anyway

She cooks - even dragons hold banquets, ya know.

And then. And then. at the end she becomes a queen and all those skills she wasn’t supposed to learn help her be a good queen.

Bonus: the dragon she goes to live with, Kazul, is also female. Through various events in the book, Kazul eventually becomes King of the Dragons (yes, you read that right–in dragon culture, the titles of King and Queen are not tied to gender.

I cannot TELL YOU how much little Stele wanted to run away and become a dragon’s princess.

Jesus christ this was my favorite book like, EVER. The idea of being able to just do what you want?! Loved it. And that was so rare, and I read so much growing up, to boot, but so frequently it was just ‘stuff happens to girl!’ not ‘this is a girl, this is who she is, this is how she lives her life, isn’t it awesome?’

Lets not forget about her other non dragon BFF who is in fact a crazy cat lady witch who’s so clean and neat that she’s developed immunity to the old ‘water melting’ aspect of witches. 

And then also lets briefly mention the last book in the series which features Killer the rabbit who turns into a donkey.

PureRomance Is not welcoming to the transgender community

So I was invited to a party by a friend of mine hosted by @pureromance. I was looking forward to it since I very rarely am able to get out of the house due to severe social anxiety, and that I have never had the chance to hang out with other girls in person due to being raised as male. As such, I was really looking forward to the opportunity to do so for the first time, and being accepted as female for an all girls party really meant a lot to me. Turns out that according to @pureromance’s rules, their “no guys allowed” policy extends to transwomen as well, so they were not having it. Upon entering, I was there for a short while before their representative, Cherie Weiss, asked me if I was a man or a woman. I figure I should note that the only basis she had for this was because of my appearance, so chances are they also have a “no ugly people allowed” policy as well. So i naturally said i was a woman, so she, I kid you not, asked to see my ID. I naturally didn’t have my ID with me because it’s a fucking birthday party that I was invited to, and it takes place in someone’s house. So because of that, she said she needed to ask me to leave because @pureromance operates on a “no trannies allowed” policy. So I decided to get up and leave, and I naturally gave Cherie the middle finger as I left, to which she responded that she doesn’t blame me but her business is more important than basic human decency. So i ended up waiting outside the house in 10 degrees Fahrenheit weather because i didn’t have a ride back. I heard people yelling inside, and most of it had to do with between my friend Emily and her mother. Emily did not expect me being trans to be a problem, rightfully so. However, her mother was angry with her for not asking Cherrie beforehand and ending up with me humiliated and treated as inhuman for being trans. SO yeah, in addition to me being treated like Garbage, Emily likely felt horrible about what happened since she told me before that if anyone gave me trouble, she’d ask them to leave, but she didn’t expect the people responsible for organizing the event would be responsible for doing so. ANd she was also scolded by her mother, who was kind enough to drive me home. Both Emily and her mother I should also mention were pissed by the way, and I highly doubt that they were the only ones that thought so. Once I got home, I simply decided to tell my dad that it didn’t work out because I did not want to go through the effort of talking about what just happened. I honestly have to ask this, what would the risk have been to let me attend? Does @pureromance operate on the Fox News belief that all transwomen are rapists who are trying to “invade women’s safe spaces?” Would Cherie’s superiors have somehow discovered that I was born male if she did let me in? Exactly what was the risk, especially when the event was at someone else’s house? As far as I’m concerned, Cherie handled this in a very irresponsible manner. However, that is not what this post is about. It is because of @pureromance’s bigoted policy that this happened, where a girl’s 21st birthday party was potentially ruined. Granted I’m sure the rest will get over it, but I’m pretty sure the way I was treated left an impression on them, and it wasn’t a pleasant one. It also turns out that @pureromance is a pretty small business. Large corporations may be able to get away with this kind of crap, but smaller ones should realize that there is a chance that if they treat people like shit, it can come back to bite them in the ass. I myself and taking the opportunity to post this one each of my social media accounts, including my twitter account which has close to a thousand followers. And i’ll also be sure to have it as my pinned tweet, so it’s the first thing everyone will see it. I also plan to forward it to many friends of mine whom are also trans, and I’m sure some of them will pass it on as well. Now I know that one person with a relatively small following won’t run #pureromance out of business, but i’m damn sure going to try and do what I can to put a dent in their business. And let me make this clear, I don’t want to blame Cherie herself for this even though she didn’t act responsibly. If the reaction her superiors have is to fire her, then that would be completely missing the point and would be even more disgusting behavior on their part. The reason she took her actions was because she was obeying THEIR RULES and did not want to risk getting into any trouble. No, the real issue here is the rules that the company itself operates on. I get that the idea is to be a women only type of thing, but here is the thing; no man would have any real motive to dress in women’s clothing and identify as female. Transwomen are not men, and should not be treated as such. Pardon the cliche, but it is, in fact, 2016. We just got gay marriage legalized last year and trans rights are next. Continuing these discriminatory practices are not going to do you any good, and will only sour your reputation further, and rightfully so. As such, unless @pureromance cleans up it’s act, DO NOT use their services unless you support blatant bigotry and transphobia. And if this inspires any transphobes to use their service out of spite, well then congratulations at the people you have associated your service with.

its so weird how ur gender supposedly dictates which shapes and textures of fuckening cloth u are permitted to drape over ur flesh prison

I like to imagine that a demon who is trapped in their human vessel is saying this

demon: and tbh wtf is up with hair like??? some genders have to have longer strands of dead proteins emitting from their scalps but other genders have to keep their protein strands short??? weird shit

possessed person: yes the gender binary is stupid and arbitrary can we be quiet now

demon: also this whole makeup thing is suspect as hell like why cant all humans put pigment all over their oral openings why would that be an issue

possessed person: craig please i am trying to sleep

the demon’s name is Craig

Things I like about this decal on a restaurant window: -the insane orange waiter -that he’s carrying his plates in the air like a strongman -the couple looks like this isn’t the first time he’s done this, but it’s easier to just let it happen at this point. -the sign says PASTA as if he’s screaming it like a frankenstein -but he’s holding a plate of an entire chicken and a plate of wine glasses -there’s three wine glasses -one’s for him.
