this is me talking to myself i don’t know

kids of color, you’re allowed to get a bitey when a white friend does something racist. literally 0 percent of people of color are obligated to be nice and palatable for white people. holding your tongue in the name of kindness doesn’t really do much in regards to stuff like this because white people are going to see you calling out their own racism as unkind anyways. white people, if a person of color comes off as aggressive while calling you out for racism, just fucking listen to them. they’re not coming from nowhere, and believe it or not: they know more about racism than you do! shocker, i know. just thickskin it, because it’s really not about you.

white ppl can rb but keep your damn mouths shut

this also applies to people people who’re jewish, muslim, and literally any religion that isn’t christianity or no religion at all because fuck you, y’all have a privilege that those people don’t have either.

yeah sure say fuck you to jk rowling but dont forget to like. actually support trans women.

t*rfs also like to twist the fact that there’s little long-term medical research into transitioning (for both trans women and trans men) in order to abuse and frighten trans men into detransitioning (which, btw, often leads to the suicidal depression that dysphoria causes and transitioning alleviates!)

like that popular post about how binding even with a good binder will fuck you up for life and make it impossible to have top surgery later on? written by a crypto-t*rf who thinks trans men are lesbians

the number of replies/tags that say something like “i’ve been terrified to bind and/or thought i’d completely fucked up my chance of getting top surgery because of that post” is horrific tbh and if you cis people actually gave a single shit about trans people you’d stop circulating shit like that

So wait. What’s the truth? Will binding fuck up your chances of getting top surgery?

no, it won’t. here’s an email from my GP, who’s been working in the Fenway Health system (which focuses on LGBT healthcare and research) for over a decade:

transcription:

Binders worn too tight or for too many hours in a day can certainly cause some chronic rib/chest pain; they may even cause some scarlike thickening of the tissue under the skin - usually at the margins where the breast folds down against the chest wall in general. This can be uncomfortable, too. But none of this translates into making top surgery a problem. Not at all.

None of the surgeons I’ve sent patients to have ever remarked about this and nothing in standard practice or the general literature suggests or supports that conclusion.

I haven’t seen a lot of posts that shed some positivity for non-binary Muslims who wear the hijab – I personally sometimes feel it’s frustrating that people see hijabi non-binary people as “female” just because the hijab is an obligation for women. My hijab does not define my gender; only my obligation to my God and my religion! 

Shoutout to all non-binary hijabi Muslims out there; you are valid and Allah loves you, insya-Allah!

do you still say reading is one of your favorite activities/hobbies even though you haven’t actually read in months but you used to read like a book a day when you were younger so much so that it became a personality trait and now you for some reason cannot for the life of you make yourself read but you’re still emotionally attached to that part of you and hope by speaking it into existence you’ll someday rediscover that happy version of yourself or are you normal?

my page is pro black as fuck, pro gay as fuck, pro-hoe, pro sex work, and pro-choice! if you’re fatphobic, transphobic, or all lives matter, UNFOLLOW ME.

Phineas and Ferb - Season Four - “My Sweet Ride”

I mean I kind of feel a bit called out here… like not, specifically, or anything. it’s just that Heinz Doofenschmirtz is so relatable

Scalding hot take apparently: if a demographic says “I don’t feel safe in the cisgendered heterosexual society, I need space in the LGBT community” and you say “I’m sorry, you’re not oppressed enough, get out” you’re a fucking asshole.

What this post is about;

  • Ace/aro people getting called “cishet”
  • Bisexuals getting called “straight passing”
  • Straight trans people getting told they’re not oppressed

What this post is not about;

  • Pedophiles

Listen, I liked Sanders. But the Supreme Court is the only thing I care about right now.

If you vote for anyone that isn't the Democrat nominee, we are looking at a 7-2 right-wing SCOTUS. For how long? 30-40 YEARS.

RBG is 87. Breyer is 81. Chances of them making it to 2024 are not great.

For the record, I think this system is FUCKED and this isn't how SCOTUS composition should be decided, but it is how it is right now.

If you care about the rights of women, of minorities of any kind, you really need to vote for the democrat nominee. No third parties or write ins. No abstaining. And for crying out loud, no assuming that Trump won't win even if you don't vote. VOTE BLUE.

Joe Biden is chemo. Chemo sucks and sorta tries to kill you, but you take it because it kills your cancer faster.

The current state of affairs with regards to how the country’s being run? Cancer. 

Bernie Sanders would have been a surgery that cuts the tumor out without long-term damage, but from the looks of it we’re at the point where that’s not a viable option.

Not voting is essential oils: it smells nice and does nothing.

If you aren’t voting for Biden then you’re voting for T.rump. Plain and simple. Spite votes, write-ins, abstaining, it’s all a vote for T.rump. A third-party/write-in candidate Will. Not. Win. It’s taking votes away from the Dem nominee and that means more votes for T.rump. Wake up and smell the oppression.

Vote for Biden. Vote for every Dem candidate in every available office. Otherwise you have no right to complain and probably fewer rights in general by the end of things.
