I’m so fucking sick of diabetes jokes. They’re everywhere, like people somehow think it’s ok to make fun of a disease like that. 

“that’s got so much sugar, it’ll give you diabetes!” 

first of all THATS NOT HOW ANY TYPE OF DIABETES WORKS. 

Second of all, even if it was, and people ‘gave diabetes to themselves’, it’s just not funny! Who gave you the right to make fun of a literal disabled person just because you think they deserve it because they ‘brought this onto themselves’? that’s fucked up! All types of diabetes have a genetic component, and specifically for type 2 diabetes, you don’t know that person’s circumstances. Recent studies are showing links between type 2 diabetes and poverty, as sugary overprocessed food like fast food is cheaper and sometimes more accessible. And once again, there’s still a genetic component. 

‘that’ll give you diabetes’ jokes are just not funny. They’re insensitive, and as a type 1 they’re just a constant reminder that I have a disease that is heavily misunderstood and weighs on me every day. I’ve heard like 10 in the past week and just now heard another one and it was the last fucking straw. DON’T MAKE THEM. 

This is 100000% ok for non diabetics to reblog I would appreciate that very much 

hey if y’all can please donate to the carolina abortion fund. nc is one of few states in the southeast to not currently be planning bans on abortions. we’re gonna be absolutely swamped from people in the southeast seeking safe abortions but there’s only so many people with so much funding that can help. ill reblog with the link.

‘straight men are terrified of showing platonic affection for other men because they’re afraid people will assume they’re gay’ now i hope this doesn’t sound too harsh but maybe if straight dudes, as a group, hadn’t spent decades demonizing, demeaning, disenfranchising, criminalizing, pathologizing, brutalizing, vilifying, mocking, and murdering gay men at every opportunity maybe being mistaken for a queer wouldn’t be such a federal fucking issue

I don’t think straight dudes were the only problem, I’m sure many women were incredibly homophobic and also called them “less” of a man or whatever bs thing and helped create that image in that time.

Straight women as a class have taught, upheld and insisted upon homophobia as the norm at every fucking turn and anyone who would retell history differently is selling something.

Also, as someone who has spent the past six years in apparel retail, I can tell you it is almost always women who are policing their sons’ and grandsons’ straightness in making sure they adhere to a rigid code of masculine presentation, while men’s fashion persistently tries to move away from that. Boys and men often get really excited by colorful and fun prints and patterns on clothes, and get routinely shot down by the women in their party, including their wives and even sometimes their daughters. We had bright pink pool shorts this summer and the number of women who openly mocked their sons and husbands and grandsons for being into them was a disgrace.

if I could ask God anything and get the real, genuine answer, I’d ask him why He commanded Abraham to sacrifice Isaac. He knew He was going to stop him. He knew that He’d never truly ask him to do it. He knew that if he went through with it then His promise would be frustrated.

The thing is… the story has led parents to think it’s okay to sacrifice their children, metaphorically and sometimes literally, for a false sense of moral superiority. How many LGBT+ children have been sacrificed in the supposed name of Christianity? How many autistic children? How many orphaned children? How many abused children?

Maybe it was the right lesson for Abraham, especially about how it paralleled Christ’s atonement. But it’s not a story that has translated well into modern times.

do you want the Jewish answer? It was to challenge him to think critically about commandments from g-d (and translating to religion as an institution, rulings from religious leaders and scripture), and it’s a challenge he failed. He was supposed to, theoretically, fight g-d and say “no, by no means am I going to do this. I don’t care that you created everything, that is my child and my world, and I’m not going to do it just because you said so.”

Instead, Abraham royally screws up, traumatises his son, and in doing so, loses his son, loses g-d’s will and favor, and in the Tanakh we never really hear from Abraham again after this point, because he failed.

It’s a story about someone blindly following in faith, and losing the most important things to them because they never stopped to think “Wait, did I hear this right? And if I did hear this right, am I so sure that this is something I want to follow?”

Isaac was Abraham’s only son at the time, and the child he had fought so hard to have. Him following an order blindly without thinking of the consequences is not supposed to be a good thing (It just kind of benefits the feudal society that eventually embraced Christianity, which is why the understanding was changed in Christian worldviews.)

They better start letting young women get hysterectomies if they’re going to ban abortion. None of that “you might want kids” bullshit. If you’re outlawing abortion and men can still get vasectomies, let women get this procedure.

Not to be political on main but I really fucking hate living in this christofascist political system cosplaying as a democracy where 6 people—5 that were appointed by people who didn’t even win the support of a majority of the voters in this country and 2 sexual abusers—can just decide that people with uteruses have less rights than an AK-47 and the opposition party won’t pass any meaningful legislation because a handful of senators are more concerned about preserving an arcane rule segregationists used and being besties with Republicans than actually using their power to help people
