reblog to give a writer the ability to name their main character

Please reblog if you think that “they/them/theirs” is a valid set of pronouns.

this post must be reblogged by everyone

I certainly hope so, since this is one of my sets of pronouns.

It would be weird if i didn’t seeing as i am a they/them…

Me and my siblings use these pronouns! They are definitely valid

people who don’t use these pronouns are fuckin wild … these pronouns are valid. always.

Dont use them but respect others who do

This is the FUNNIEST SHIT I HAVE EVER SEEN

Reblogging for cultural enrichment

You love and support trans women!

@mushtoons feels strongly about this one

DAMN RIGHT WE DO 😤😤😤

…This. (In case you were in any doubt.)

Wha... why would someone attack the writers for writers not being paid enough???

Because they're only seeing the effects on their own entertainment schedules, and as the writers are the ones stopping work, it must be their fault.

Anti-union sentiment is still strong in this country, with a lot of folks assuming unions are greedy and corrupt. Add to that a misconception that anyone involved in entertainment must have a Beverly Hills mansion, and you have your answer.

“You can’t just go wishing death on people you disagree with”

The people I disagree with:

“But they aren’t around anymore”

“But our society does not accept or endorse them”

“They’re people too! These are somebody’s sons”

So are the minorities that they slaughter and wish to genocide but for some reason me saying we should kill them for that desire is equally horrible so again I say

violence is the only answer when it comes to Nazis and Facists. They will not hesitate to kill you, and we should not hesitate to return the sentiment.

Violence isn't usually the answer, but when it comes to fascists and nazis who call for the literal genocide of people who want nothing more than to live peacefully and without fear.

Violence is the answer because they will listen to nothing else they understand nothing else. Anything else allows them to keep growing like the cancer on the human race they are.

The only good fascist is a dead one.

this gets so much funnier when you consider that people literally just live on mount everest, there's a perfect parallel between random europeans "discovering" a mountain that people already live on and medical professionals suddenly discovering autism despite people having it going back god knows how long

fuck off, terfs, nothing on this blog is for you, and it never will be.

Beep boop! I look for accidental haiku posts. Sometimes I mess up.

Real

Honestly as a blind person I’m so tired of seeing fictional blind characters who don’t use white canes or other guides. “They have special powers so they know what’s around them” or “they’re confident enough to not need a guide” are common tropes, and I’m tired.

Are people scared that using a white cane will make their blind character seem weak? They can’t use a cane because they’re so special that they already know what’s around them, and other blind people who use guides are inferior because they’re not special?

I’m tired. Give your blind characters white canes and other guides. Let them hold onto their friends, let them have guide dogs. Don’t make white cane users feel ostracized for not being “strong enough” to go without.

Another thing that pisses me off is when a sighted character comes up with the fantasy equivalent of braille and teaches it to the blind character. Braille was invented by Louis Braille, a blind man, in 1824. The blind character should be the one coming up with it.

Tldr I’m blind and tired of sighted people lol

🔪 Sighted People MUST Reblog This 🔪

what color do I remind you of... we could make a tag game... reblog w/ the color the person you reblogged from reminds you of

lil comic

Republicans are cancer.

A good time to remind people about the concept of Jury Nullification. Other terms you may hear in place of jury nullification are conscientious acquittal, juror veto, or jury pardon. At its essence, it is acquitting someone of a crime because you believe defining what they did as a crime is immoral. They did it but the law itself is wrong. It is based on the belief that the role of the jury is not simply to uphold the law but to turn mere law into justice.

Of course that’s exactly why Florida wants to change the law to 8-4 because they don’t want people’s morals to interfere with their pogrom.

Also a good time to remind people that if it looks like a Nazi, sounds like a Nazi, acts like a Nazi, and is supporting policies that Nazis actually had, no matter what they call themselves or what symbols they use, they’re a Nazi.

There was an arrest across the street from my place in Oakland one day – three cop cars with a bullhorn and guns out – and before I could even get out the gate there were a couple people posted up and one of them was filming and another one was narrating in a calm but very loud voice, just

“HE IS COOPERATING! HIS HANDS ARE EMPTY! HE IS DOING WHAT HE IS TOLD TO DO! HE IS HOLDING STILL! HIS HANDS ARE EMPTY! HE IS NOT BEING THREATENING! HE HAS PUT HIS HANDS BEHIND HIS HEAD AS ASKED! HE IS NOT RESISTING!”

and that was something I hadn’t thought to do before. It certainly let the cops know what the narrative of eye witnesses was going to be. 

I especially liked “his hands are empty” because this statement would still be true and a witnessed reason the police should not become violent even if it turned out he had a weapon on his person somewhere.

I see people in NYC stop and record a lot. Even if they are just being nosey, that’s still witnesses if shit goes down.

We must be vigilant.  The New Solidarity.  You might just save a fellow human being.

If you don’t feel comfortable with doing the narrating thing (which really is quite clever), even just standing around and blatantly staring actually legit helps immensely.

There are studies that show that even an image of someone looking can be effective to change people’s behaviours.

Sidenote: If you see a cop stopping an Indigenous person, the same protocol applies.

I did this in a parking lot when I saw a group of Black men and teens being harassed by a cop. Stayed in my car, but whipped out my phone and started to record, pointing out via narrative when I could hear the cop contradicting himself and changing his story. At the eight-minute mark, when I knew he was past the reasonable-stop guideline time (thanks, legal tips side of tumblr!), I flipped on my dome light.

Fam, what happened next was INCREDIBLE.

The cop had been gesturing in a wild way, almost flailing, like he was actively trying to get these guys agitated. He saw my dome light, saw a white face with a phone, and suddenly his hands came to rest on his vest. Within 90 seconds he’d packed his shit up and gone.

The most outspoken gentleman in the group came up to me and went “whatchu doing in there?” So I straight-up told him “it looked like you were being harassed, so I was recording.” The whole group recognized someone who was on their side, and started venting about the shit that had just gone down.

Turns out the asshole had had them stopped for a good five minutes before I pulled in. That means they were stopped, with no probable cause and a cop changing his story no fewer than three times, for AT LEAST THIRTEEN MINUTES. While chatting in a parking lot. One car had pulled in next to another that turned out to belong to one of his buddies and they were just shooting the shit when Officer Bacon came by.

Want to know the kicker here? One of the cop’s stories was that a group “matching their description” had been reported by the grocery store security guy for shoplifting. Black man, red shirt with a sports logo, jeans. Know what this convenient report didn’t mention?

HIS HEIGHT.

This guy was, without exaggeration, at least 6’10”. I assure you any report of him would have mentioned his height FIRST. And you’d best believe I pointed that out in my narration.

Cops WILL try shit. You CAN stop them. I did it and it was as simple as having some patience and a camera.

Same for muslims!

Look out for your fellow marginalized people!

Reblog if I can go on your page and write stupid things in your ask box whenever I'd like to.

i hope everyone with acne, eczema, vitiligo, psoriasis, dermatitis, and skin conditions have a good day today

thanks guys while im here PLEASE put an acne option on your picrews

Update

Gillian Philip is doxxing fans and MINORS now. A fan recently sent her an email voicing their concerns about her views and the impact they have on her work and fan base. Gillian decided to post the fan’s full name and email address to their PUBLIC Twitter in an attack. The fan is a MINOR who runs a Warriors fan account. How disgusting do you have to be to dox and potentially HARM a MINOR!?

in case anyone (like me) was just hearing about this, Gillian works on the Erin Hunter team and is now openly a TERF.

she works on Survivors and Bravelands.

see that checkered flag? it’s a TERF dogwhistle, something they put in their usernames or bios to let other transphobes know they’re one of them. if you come across someone using it, avoid avoid avoid.

Reblogging for the dog-whistle info, it’s important
