If you require kids to go to school by law, they shouldn’t have to pay for anything at all to be able to go there. They shouldn’t need to pay for food, books, a laptop, anything that the school gives you. If a child has to pay in any way to attend school, it’s a failure of our government to provide proper funding

This also includes transportation to and from school.

This should also include accessibility, aids and assistance for disabled children!

So quick background I am from Dominican Republic I was born there and I came here when I was 10 years old so I don’t come from much money. I am now 18 and I started to transition almost a year ago and the more I’ve been transitioning the more I have realize that it is unsafe for me to go out and live my truth without facial feminization surgery. Being a black trans woman I have a huge target on my back as it is, but it’s a lot harder when you can’t pass. At first in the beginning of my transition I thought I wasn’t going to get any surgeries or anything but I quickly realized that for me and my transition it’s a necessity. If you can’t donate that’s completely ok, I know that some people just can’t. I am one of those people, every time I see my trans sisters with a fund me account I want to donate so bad but then I have to worry about what I’m going to eat the next day. So if you can’t donate that’s completely ok, but if you can it’s greatly appreciated regardless thank you so much for reading my story and visiting my page. I hope everyone has and awesome day and stay safe. http://www.gofundme.com/2i4srdo

Please donate, or if you can’t, reblogging to spread the word really helps!!! Hasana is a friend of mine and it is super important for me as a transmasc person to help support my trans sisters in any way I can!! Any support is appreciated!!

Worked on this girl for 9 months. Now this new music video comes out and she’s immensely popular, arguably one of the most popular characters in the LoL universe.

Don’t get me wrong, I’m really glad she’s a huge hit, it’s super exciting to see so many people love the character design and the gameplay, and know that I contributed directly and significantly to the behind-the-scenes engineering that makes it all work. It’s validating.

But it’s also so fucking melancholy to know I did so much work and put in so much time for such a shitty company, run by shitty people, and the reward I got for it was unemployment. 

I threw a lot into this character. I cried at work. I started getting panic attacks, which I’ve never gotten before. I developed persistent heart palpitations from the daily overwhelming stress and had to go to the hospital (this is true, seriously.) I basically dropped all my friends outside of work. My manager (and his manager!) lied to me constantly to keep me working. They said I was doing a great job but to keep it up. Don’t worry, it’s going to turn out great, and it’ll all be worth it in the end – recognition, a raise, probably a promotion in short order. They promised me the world. When she was finally finished, I didn’t even get to go to the release party, they just walked me out. 

I remember a quote from my last day, it sticks out in my mind: “I know you realize this is really hard for me,” my manager said. Yes, in the end, when he awkwardly informed me I didn’t have my dream job anymore – or any job at all – and then stared back at my shell-shocked face, my thousand-yard stare, the only thing he felt was sorry for himself.

She launched with no major bugs and was considered a technical success. Doesn’t matter. Get the fuck out.

I don’t know how I feel. A weird sensation of pride and intense bitterness. I did a good job; at least, I think I did. Unfortunately, internal validation is the only kind I’m going to get.

Everyone reposting KDA should see this. Riot has successfully distracted everyone into forgetting their culture of sexism, exploitation, and toxicity mere months after it was all revealed.

Look, I get it. Akali is EXTREMELY my type. It’s obvious how much love and care was put into her development. But it makes me furious to see all the free advertising that Riot is getting from people who I thought would know better.  And now? One of the people who is arguably responsible for all that free advertising? Who’s work is undoubtedly making Riot hundreds of thousands of dollars a day? Who was overworked to the point of near breaking? They get nothing. WORSE than the scant bit of credit that most devs can get in a big company like Riot. They got let go.

Fuck Riot Games.

(EDIT, four hours later: when I reblogged this post, OP’s blog was still active, and with a cursory look through their archive, it was pretty clear to me that they were telling the truth. 

It’s possible they had posted about Riot over the last year as part of some kind of long-game, but the earnestness of the posts didn’t seem to indicate any kind of deception. Who knows) (Double EDIT: Someone compiled all the sources they had on OP to prove to a decent level of confidence that OP worked at Riot, TY)

Help My Little Brother Survive

My brother, David, was recently in a bad car accident. A drunk driver hit him from behind and the accident caused the car to catch fire and explode. He narrowly made it out, thanks to someone passing by who yanked the fabric roof off and pulled him out.

He has 3 damaged vertebrae in his neck, 3 degree burns, and a stapled gash in his head.

He and his girlfriend, Haley, need help financially at this point. David will be out of work for at least 2 months, and that mean’s they’re down to only one income. Haley has taken time off in the last week to help David as well. David doesn’t even have glasses (something he sorely needs) at this moment, as they were damaged in the accident.

Please help out, or signal boost, and thank you!

Witches I see...

Rosy Witches: with bright eyes and smiles, hair that does what it pleases and still manages to look good. Scented lip balm, satchels, and no shoes when possible. Warm days where gardens drink in the sun.

Tea Leaf Witches: with their hair always up, as it just gets too distracting. Sleeves pulled over icy hands, nervous habits, chipped nail polish from last month. Sweaters even when it’s too hot. Overcast days and people watching.

Midnight Witches: with dark lips and cheeky grins. Quiet power, chunky heels, dark nails running across the lines of books. Picnics in the graveyard, parasols. The first days of Autumn where you can feel what is to come.

Tag yourself~
