If you are considering meeting up with someone online use this trick identify who really are who they claim to be:
1. Ask them to Skype 2. If they refuse or can’t for some reason ask for a current selfie 3. If they also refuse or can’t do not meet up with them 4. If they provide one ask them to send another with them holding 3 fingers up 5. If they refuse read step 3 6. If they provide a selfie where they show 3 fingers they are probably for real
(If you’re still unconvinced try again with them drawing something in their hand)
I SAY THIS FOR YOUR OWN SAFETY please spread this message as more and more young people are lured out into situations where they get kidnapped because they weren’t 100% sure the person they were talking to was real.
ALSO IF YOU ARE UNDER THE AGE OF 18 MAKE SURE YOU STATE THE FOLLOWING:
“My [fill in trusted adult here] wants to come too. [pronoun] said we can do our own thing and [pronoun] will just sort of grab [pronoun] own table, but I wanted to let you know. Hey, if you have an adult coming too they could sit together!”
If hearing this freaks the other person out and they decline, TERMINATE ALL CONTACT. Do not pass go, do not collect $200, go directly to block. I’m 26 years old and if you tell me you’re coming with a friend or parent for your own safety, I will automatically say “hey, cool. Y’know, if you’re nervous we can just do Starbucks or something, I’m okay meeting in a busy place. That way your [adult/friend] can hang out, too, and they don’t have to pay for [admission, a movie ticket, whatever].” Your safety and comfort is important to me, and is important to any good person you meet online who wants to meet up IRL. In the early 2000s when I first started seeing online safety PSAs, this was a widely-spread tip. Use it.
And for the record, you can use this over the age of 18, too. I still won’t meet people from online except in public places. You never know–that person holding up three fingers and drawing a Pokemon on their palm could be some pervert’s child, niece, nephew, family friend’s kid who was encouraged to take some silly pictures. Always voice-verify and always meet in public, with another person if possible.
Be smart and stay safe, kiddos. Nina loves you.
Try asking for photos of them holding up fingers or doing an odd pose over writing on their hand or a piece of paper. It’s much more difficult to fake the former with photo editing software.
also I’m sorry young people but if you are under the age of 18 and somebody around 21+ is hitting on your and asking you for super sexual stuff, that’s shitty. If you’re super underaged like 15 and below, that’s REALLY REALLY SHITTY AND IS NOT A COMPLIMENT OK.
If anyone in California is interested in adopting a dog or a cat, Kerns County Animal Shelter ( one of the most disgraceful shelters in California ) is being shut down. Dogs are being sold for 15$ and cats for 5$ ( all are fixed with shots. )
Every animal will be put down by September 30th.
Go here for more information.
Signal boost since I can’t adopt one myself.

– via tcafinfo.org Dmab folks, it is very important to perform self-exams every month. Be familiar with your body. Early detection is key with all types of cancers. – Duck
And if you do find lumps, don’t kid yourself. Go to the doctor. I found some lumps last July and at first i was too scared and tried to fool myself into thinking it was no big deal. Then I remembered that most of my mom’s side of the family has cancer in some form or another. I had an ultrasound done and I’m very grateful it turned out to be benign, but imagine if it wasn’t. Don’t take the risk.
yes, this is super important. never ever think “nah, it’ll probably be fine” or “i don’t want to waste the doctor’s time–” your health and safety is never a waste of time. please always go see a doctor is there are any irregularities in your body!

Signal boost for health! I know people who had this while young!
If you’ve got testicles, check them. And if you find something, go see your doctor. It’s worth the embarrassment.
I’ve been to the doctor both for a false alarm and for a real threat. The first time was a relief - and so was the second. Scary, yes, but hearing my doctor say “I don’t know how you caught it this early; this is earlier than anyone normally finds anything.” was heartening in the face of what was ahead.
Make it easier on yourself. Check early, check often, don’t kid yourself.
I know I post a lot of “that girly stuff,” but this is just as important. And folks: don’t think “I’m too young to get testicular cancer”. Testicular cancer hits young people, average early 20s. Prostate cancer is for the oldies. So check ‘em out.
Very useful to know, pass and share please.
Worth watching
I don’t mean to impose a personal favour on you guys, but I really would like to ask that everyone who follows me reblog this.
I don’t think I made it very clear but last month I was sexually assaulted by someone who I thought was my friend (I don’t want to talk about it don’t ask), and it’s… really fucked with my head.
Had I known this a month ago I would have been able to get away.
So, essentially, I’m really pleading with you to reblog this so everyone who follows you doesn’t get stuck in the same position I was with no way out.
I mean again I don’t want the point of this to be my sob story or whatever but if you could reblog this it would seriously mean a lot
This is so crucial to know.
Gotta do it
Yep
reblog and make a wish! this was removed from tumbrl due to “violating one or more of Tumblr’s Community Guidelines”, but since my wish came true the first time, I’m putting it back. :)
