Meet Maya, an orphaned 24 year old trans woman in Yemen. She has been held in prison for multiple charges for being trans/being a "man that dresses like a woman", and for being gay.

She has been brutally beaten and sexually assaulted/raped by both prisoners and security guards. Her adoptive family abandoned her because of her gender identity and the charges against her. When she was released to go home her family beat her up. They broke her nose. They told her she deserved to die.

She ran away to another city to live with a friend temporarily. She's attempted suicide multiple times.

I got in contact with her recently after retweeting her story. She said she managed to afford an apartment with just a few retweets of her GoFundMe. All she needs is a little more money to move out of Yemen. Her goal is £12,000 and she's currently at £4,392.

"I hope that you look into my case and help me to get out of Yemen to a country that saves my right and dignity as a transgender woman."

She has stated that she is not the only trans person in Yemen to undergo torture like that. Trans people have no rights or protections in Yemen.

Please, if you have the means, even donating a dollar or two can help immensely toward the effort to save her. If not, a simple reblog as well as boosting this on twitter and other social media sites would help greatly.

From Kasia Babis.

I’ve never understood people who make those sorts of jokes. I identify with this cartoon enormously.

Never forget

He played two different subculture characters completely differently during a time where both would have been played as “brooding”. The mans amazing.

Don’t forget, he played Shaggy so well in the movie that he was chosen to voice the role after Casey Kasem, the original actor, retired.

He also runs a cool DnD website!

is there anything better than an ancient greek hedgehog figurine? i think not

Not to counter, but rather bring up in equal measure, I present Ancient Egyptian Hedgehog figure: 

It’s blue… humanity really has spent thousands of years making the same goddamn shit huh

Alright so. I have fucked my taxes up before. It was the year of no jobs and I cashed out a 401k to make my car payment and then forgot to report that as income.

Here’s what happened:

I got a bill from the IRS and had to pay what I owed plus a little extra for interest cause I was paying late.

That’s it.

The lessons here:

1) The IRS will not call you. Anyone calling saying they are from the IRS is a scammer.

2) The IRS isn’t gonna take you to court if they can solve the problem with one letter.

3) Accidentaly fucking up on your taxes if you made a good faith effort to file correctly isn’t illegal. To get you for tax fraud they have to be able to prove you did it on purpose. Hence why all I got was a bill. They knew that I could reasonably claim to have fucked up accedntally and as long as I paid up they did not care.

W-what?
