hello i do not know if this has been shared here already but snowflake is a system that allows you to access censored websites and applications from all over the world. And if you are in a place where the internet is not heavily censored, you can help someone else do that by adding a simple web extension to your browser (which is super easy, safe and takes maybe 2 minutes) or just keeping this webpage open. Further information on both how to bypass censorship and how to help can be found here. And here is there support channel regarding Iran in particular. Please help and share this if you can!

hello tumblr

[ID: First image is a tweet from Garfxist (username followed by the Cuban, Chinese, and Palestine flag) (@/garfxist) reading: "Doing history research rn..... Oh shit that's really fucked up. Holy shit that's really fucked up. My god, what a crime against humanity. What the fuck. I hate it even more now" in response to a tweet by PragerU reading: "If this flag offends you, it's time to do some history research." and then an image of the American flag.

Tumblr took down the original

So here

winter has come once again to teach me things i don’t want to know about myself

the prev tags debate is dumb and comes from everyone on tumblr thinking everything is about them. like im not sending you on a journey or whatever i just want my mutual to get a notif that says prev tags so true and for them to gaze lovingly at the heart shaped locket they wear around their neck with a picture of my tumblr icon in it like im doing for them ok? buzz off

just once I want to see a good post critiquing makeup culture that doesn’t turn out to be made by some janky radfem blog

oh hey!! I’m not a janky radfem I can do it myself!

makeup culture is wack and normalizes a ludicrously high bar as the bare minimum women can do. I saw a “lazy"makeup tutorial the other day that listed 22 separate goddamn products. you’re supposed to buy and know how to use 22 different things on your face just for the privilege of being considered lazy and that’s uuuuuuh what’s the word? bullshit.

Really, five products could work, even 3. Just frame the face, eyes, lips, and you’re done.

0 products also works great

because I’m gonna be real here, the idea that 22 products is a minimum sucks but it’s really upsetting that any amount of makeup is the bare minimum at all

I would really just suggest some powder foundation, concealer, mascara and lipgloss/lipstick, or tbh just mascara works too, but that’s up to you

I’m sorry if I didn’t express this clearly enough in the original post but I’m not really looking for more concise makeup regiments. my intention was to point out how it’s Bad that makeup is considered a bare minimum at all, regardless of individual feelings on the matter

no face should be “required” to have “a minimum” of makeup. makeup has no health benefits and does nothing but fill the pockets of companies that prey on women and our insecurities.

makeup should not be seen as hygiene because it isnt. get that shit out of your head.

this post: makeup culture is ridiculous and 22 products should not be considered a minimum requirement for someones face. no one should have to do that

the notes: so like……. what youre saying is……. we need to make the minimum about 5 or 6 instead… i gotcha

Really the only makeup you need is eyeliner but that’s just my personal opinion

okay

where did we lose you

why are people like this

You show a cat something and they're like sniff sniff sniff sniff sniff sniff sniff ooooh I understand now. Don't care
