when I see queer adults in public im like look at me. look at me. look at me. do you see me? i see you. please recognize me

the nature of tumblr is just that every so often someone accidentally rewrites ring of keys again

link here if ur unfamiliar

[why do I feel like I'm losing my fuckig mind] [remembers it's August] ohhhhhhhg.

in honor of barbie movie, i dug my Midge ™ out of my parents’ shed so i could show you all just how she worked if you’ve never witnessed it in action

as you can see, Midge has a magnetic pregnancy belly that contours to her unpregnant body

now inside the pregnancy belly of course is the barbie baby. it comes right out, no vagina to exit through. and if you look closely you can see that her underwear is also painted across the bottom of the belly. there is no mistaking this for a woman with any genitalia. just underwear.

here is the baby within the belly. i don’t think either of these is the correct way a baby should sit in a uterus but do i look like a fucking doctor to you?

the clearly very happy mother and child. and discarded magnetic belly. with underwear band.

unrelated but i also found my louis tomlinson doll

fuck it. pregnant louis tomlinson

True.

Anyways. I hate you minimalism I hate you ‘not like other girls’ I hate you assumption that loving makeup and color and design makes you awful I hate you beauty is thin light girls with single colored clothes and plain hair I hate you ‘don’t stand out too much’ I hate you glossy white countertops and monochrome color schemes that destroy historical homes with personality in every faded paint or crack I hate you glorification of plainness I hate you media design that’s gone from cute icons to nothing I hate you high fashion that’s a single white shirt for $500 and is suddenly the ‘peak of fashion’ I hate you the assumption that joy is vapid and loving brightness and clothes and eyeshadow and life makes you awful and more than anything I hate myself for every single time I find myself thinking the same thing and feeling shame bubble up for things I should love freely

I think Americans in general should maybe start taking xenophobia more seriously. Because with the. Everything going on in the world right now. It's gotten really really bad. And while lefties might not be reactionary to the same extent as republicans it's still very much prevalent. I went to dinner with my family recently and the stuff they said about my cousin's family who emigrated from Russia made me feel like I was losing my mind. He's 2 years old. How are you going to discriminate against a baby with a clear conscience. Then you read the news and it's like "China is spying on you with TikTok and weather balloons" and you hear people on all angles of the political compass repeat it. Are you hearing yourself right now. Are you for real

Cannot believe I have to say this but I am Lakota. as in native american. As in almost everyone's family came to the united states from another country at one point, except for the people who were already living here. Like my mom's family. And I live here.

Immediately assuming I must be a white european because I disagree with widespread american xenophobia is prelly wild. Honestly. When I mentioned my family and America in the same post I thought it was clear that I live here.

"But you said you had family from Russia?"

Yes. People get married sometimes. My cousin married someone from Russia. They had a baby. He's a good baby btw. Fantastic little dude. I hope he grows up in a better world than this one.

I can't speak for people living in other countries because I don't live there. I live here. I don't think it's my place to berate people from other countries because that's kind of the problem. Maybe I should have started this post out like a presidential speech. My fellow Americans. Now more than ever.

Reading comprehension test:

2. What does "xenophobia" mean?

3. Is possible to care about other people? if yes, then:

3.1: even if they're from another country?

3.2: even if they speak another language?

3.3: even if I don't like their government?

reblog this and put in the tags something you watched that terrified you as a child. i was so scared of the hot sauce in spongebob that i refused to be in the room when it was on

All I know is how to scream the crane wives lyrics and cry

do you all remember in the early 2010s where people were talking about freeing the nipple and that mixed-gender sports should become a thing and the removal of period tax and all of that and then some people realised that would mean trans people too ans they instantly decided to revert to bioessentialism 101 and now i have to see grating sentences like Well maybe jeopardy should be gender-segregated because males have a biological advantage in pressing a button

I JUST REALIZED SOMETHING. D:

Pink took Pearl’s hands, crossed them one over the other, and said, “Let’s never speak of this again.” After this, Pearl was literally incapable of talking about what she did.

In The Answer, Rose took Garnet’s hands, crossed them one over the other, and told her, “No more questions.”

And now Garnet “can’t” ask questions.

@outofthisgxlaxy

I just want to point out that in the podcast they discussed one of the rules in the show bible being that Garnet can’t ask questions. The writers are not allowed to write garnet asking a question ever. The explanation was that they do this in order to keep her sounding decisive, which makes sense in keeping with her future vision and confident attitude. I literally have not thought about this scene since the episode aired and now I’m screaming because listen

Is this a cute nod to their writing strategy? OR is their decision to make this characterization rule alluding to a much much darker thing that they haven’t been telling us?

from know your fusion

woop there it is

Also voice actors should not have to become famous celebrity screen actors and/or pop music stars to get hired for voice work in the latest Pixar flick.

Fame should not be a prerequisite for every creative job. Especially since a lot of brilliantly creative people *absolutely hate the idea of being famous and have zero desire to become celebrities.*

“it’s unrealistic for so many of them to be gay”

shut up shut up shut UP every single person in my 3rd grade friend group turned out to be queer (except for one, the token straight guy) and there were EIGHT of us. queer people find each other, even if they don’t know they’re queer.
