god im glad i surround myself with the disabled tgirls and the nasty trannies and the boygirls and girlboys and the therians rather than fucking losers who think that passing is the end all be all of existence

YES we are better for trying to surround ourself with weirdos because what kind of person does it make you if you arent. why are you not hanging out with the disabled girls and the nasty ones and people who dont conform. live a little. get an appreciation for the strange and brushed over because most people dont!

Strange that it never occured to me. There are times I've been so upset that I've stamped around while cussing, that I've lain flat on the floor and groaned for as long as I had breath, that I've ranted my frustration aloud in an unhinged monologue, that I've swung my limbs about in a fury. All until I'd vented enough to just ... resume my normal life.

And if I'd had not the privacy of my home, I'd either have had to bottle that all up ... or open it all up where the public could scrutinize my every move. It really is a privilege to not be constantly on display like that.

I've thought about that so much as a mentally ill person

I talk to myself a lot. I hit my head, I punch my walls, I scream, I cry messily, I stare into nothing with wide open eyes, I rock back and forth, I walk in circles

When I look at the "crazy homeless people", as others see them, all I can think is that we aren't that different. If I didnt have support or medication or even a home I too would probably be seen mumbling nonsense to myself, shivering, with "manic" wide eyes full of fear and confusion, crying and screaming

Mentally ill people who have the privilege of meds and a support system and even basic things like a house, we can never forget that we aren't better or less "crazy", we just have the "privilege" (shouldn't have to be a privilege) of privacy and dignity

i can’t believe that brennan lee mulligan created an autistic character, gave her wings of fire, made her one of the best npcs to ever exist, never made her mask, and then had her romance one of the pcs and made them girlfriends.

TRULY one of the most characters ever.

WAIT WHAT DO YOU MEAN IT WASNT INTENTIONAL?!?? SHE WAS INTRODUCED RIGHT OUT OF THE GATES WITH EXTREMELY FORMAL SPEECH PATTERNS, SPECIAL INTERESTS, NOT BEING CLUED INTO SOCIAL CUES, ETC.

(that’s actually really cool though that brennan listened to fans’ experiences and made sure to do the character justice and have good representation, especially since that wasn’t necessarily what he had in mind for that character. i had just very heartily assumed that he had made a conscious choice to include an autistic character and just looked at the most common traits and went with it lmao)

I forget which Crown of Candy Adventuring Party it was, but yeah lmao

Brennan was asked a question about Ayda that included thanks for how great the representation is or something like that, and he was like “yeah that wasn’t intentional. I wanted a Sherlock Holmes-type really intelligent but not great with social skills character, and i took a lot of inspiration from some friends of mine”

and it wasn’t until he saw so many autistic fans pointing out how great of representation she is, how seen they felt, that he was like “oh shit yeah the friends i took so much inspiration for her from are all autistic, sherlock holmes is autistic-coded, i hadn’t considered that”

I also remember him saying something about hiring an autism sensitivity consultant for her though, like as soon as he realized she was autistic he also decided to make sure he’d do it correctly.

Me, leaving a trail of breadcrumbs for all my sapphic friends that leads to FH:

There’s a buff autistic lesbian librarian wizard lady with wings and hair of fire who first finds a friend and defends her fiercely before falling head over heels for a chaotic anxious demon girl rockstar.

(also yes the story of Brennan creating this character is VERY SWEET!)

banning pornography will not stop people from horny posting on your website but instead all the horny posts will now be about how someone wants to be a 2008 Volvo and have a butch mechanic change their oil and stuff like that

How to have a conversation about a topic you’re not interested in or don’t know anything about:

  1. Listen to what the other person has to say about the topic.
  2. Ask a question about what they said. Asking them to clarify or explain something you don’t understand is great, but any question will do. All else fails, ask them to explain what they like about some part of the topic.
  3. Listen to their responses and go back to step 2.
  4. Do this until 5-15 minutes has passed, then change the subject to a topic of your interest, unless you are actually interested in learning more on this subject, in which case, go on for as long as you like.
  5. Sometimes, they will say something like “I’m sorry to blather on about [topic].” This is an attempt at a conversational dismount. You can either say “no, it was fascinating, thanks” and then bring up your own topic, or you can say “no, it’s fascinating, please keep going” if you want to keep hearing about their topic. Note the tense difference (past -> moving on, present -> keep going).

I just thought I’d write a script for this, because someone who can’t / won’t do this came up in a Captain Awkward column, and listening about topics you have no interest in is a really useful skill to have and not often explicitly taught, particularly to boys and men.

This is really helpful advice for people with adhd/autism because we’re often not great at social skills and holding conversations

I never wanted to have to do this again, but I have no other options. The farms well pump and water tank are broken, and it's going to be over $12,000 usd to fix it.

We have a 1 year old baby living here, and there's another little one due in February, plus the sheep, goats, chickens, cats and dogs we have. We have NO RUNNING WATER as of right now.

I am genuinely begging for any help at all with this. This farm saved my life. It's my livelihood, my safe space, the one place I have ever felt safe. I am willing to send n#de photos and videos for donations over $20, or draw something for you, anything.

Please, please, PLEASE reblog and share this anyway you can, and if you have the funds please help. This farm is run by natives and Jewish people, if that's more incentive to help. I myself am a nonbinary lesbian. This was my dream for so long, and I'm not about to give it up without trying everything

If you don't feel comfortable using the link I also have my personal payment links you can message me for

I'm sorry if this isn't very legible. I feel sick right now.

The "Americanization of the global internet" post and slow deterioration of local native culture gave me an idea: many users don't even know there is native language communities on this website, so if you know of a regional group/"subculture" on Tumblr, reblog/comment with the tags they use so people can find them and connect with other folks from their countries or speakers of a language they'd like to learn

Op is denying us the fucking golden replies to this tweet omg

When i had breast reduction surgery, i got into the OR and got put on this table that looked like a flat crucifix (arms out so they could get to the girls), and i said ‘god, don’t nail me down’

they put the mask on my face and the nurse said ‘no jesus treatment today’

and the last thing i said to her was ‘jesus with some big ass titties’ and then passed out.
