Fuck Off (:

My dad had a couple strokes over the past year and because of that hasnt kept up the house him and my disabled brother (the one with the brain tumor) live in, so I’ve just been informed they haven’t had functional plumbing for a year.

They can’t use any of their sinks or shower. I called a plumber for them and the pipes are broken under the house so theyre going to need $1000 (a huge amount) to get it fixed, so far I’ve paid $297.60 on this 1000 but my funds are not enough to make sure my disabled dad and brother have plumbing

If you’d like to donate I still need $702.40 to fix their plumbing

You can donate here

If not I hope you have a lovely day, take care.

I guess neither of them have been showering because of this and never cook. I am very worried and horrified and really just want to make sure theyre ok, unfortunately I live thousands of miles away and they cannot travel due to corona and their risk of dying.

down to needing $518.19

i just want my disabled dad and brother to have safe drinking water and the ability to wash themselves and youre all doing so much to help thank you

down to needing $445.82 !!! 😭😭😭 ty!!!

all of us vaccinated people communicate directly to each other via brain chip technology and we all talk about how sexy we are

You wouldn't believe the memes in the brain chip groupchat

This tiktok about someone’s pre-transition self is so so SO tender and I just want anyone who has transitioned and may be mourning their old self to see this and to know it’s okay. It’s okay to miss that person you once were, it’s okay to wish you had embraced what you had and who you were before transitioning. It doesn’t mean you regret it, and it doesn’t mean you made the wrong decisions.

It’s okay to think about that person, it’s okay to mourn them, and it’s okay to wonder. The person you were before transitioning may have been a trick of the light, but it doesn’t mean they weren’t special while they were here.

Everyone’s experience is different… but if you find yourself feeling this, just know it’s okay. You don’t have to completely block out every aspect and memory of who you were before. It’s okay if you do, but you don’t have to.

the worst part about studying languages is knowing that you will never be nearly as good at it as a literal baby

The only reason babies are better at language learning is because it’s their full time job and they don’t get embarrassed

If you, a teenaged or adult human, wasn’t embarrassed and could study language full time you would learn way faster than a baby.

In my defense, babies receive more positive reinforcement than I do as well. Babies will say ha ba bah dah ba hah and all the adults around them will be like 🤯 really? Wow 😱 that is so interesting 😁 great job! 🤗 and then what happened? 🤔

also people who are like “I’ve been studying for a year and I only have an eight-year-old’s grasp of the language”:

how long do you think it took the eight-year-old

also the baby is constantly immersed in the language all the time. unless you’re surrounded by people who speak your target language, you’re not gonna have that convenience. and that’s ok.

please boost

YOU get some dignity and YOU get some dignity

Finland explained himself in the comic, but in 2010 Denmark started giving heroine to drug addicts for free and it was such a huge success that it has continued until today. Because of this Norway has started experimenting with it too. It’s a lot cheaper for society because the addicts commit less crime, they don’t have to spend money on drugs so instead they spend it on things that are more healthy for them so they don’t end up on the hospital as often, they have to take the drugs in special clinics so there’s no chance of them taking an overdose or using dirty needles and spreading diseases among each other, there’s always staff ready to help them if they want to get off the drugs, and it’s a lot more effective way to help more people because addicts come into contact with professionals who want to help them before they even think about getting help themselves. Nobody wants to be homeless or an addict. Though they often end up getting involved in criminality because of their situation, the act of being homeless or an addict is not a crime in itself and the people deserve help like anyone else.

It also gets money out of mafia/crime communities. Really hard to base your business on selling drugs people can get safer for free. Really hard to spend that drug money on weapons or other dangers if you never made it in the first place.

I got tired of never seeing love stories that reminded me of myself. so I made one. for myself.

can y’all stop reblogging this/responding to this with “this is so unrealistic?” I literally made it because it reminds me of myself and my relationship, and I see a handful of people saying that it reminds them of themselves and their relationships. I know being trans/queer can make dating and finding love seem impossible, but part of that is because nobody is making media about us and our relationships, hence why I drew this.

My partner loves me for who I am, but more importantly I love me for who I am, queer as fuck, and I know that if he didn’t respect me the way I wanted him to, there are literally so many good people in the world who would. I am perfect and lovable and valuable not in spite of being queer but because of it, and so are you.

This is one of the coolest pieces of art I’ve seen and I’m obsessed with everything in both of them, HOLY SHIT I love this. Good job op, ur amazing!!

Students at the Ethical Culture Fieldston School held a sit-in protest Monday.

The group’s action were in response to a racist video that was filmed three years ago. The video shows students of the Fieldston school chanting racist and homophobic slurs.

Those who took part in the protest say they want to shed light that their school hasn’t done enough to show that intolerance and racism of any kind will not be tolerated.

Students say they’re willing to block administrators from their offices to prompt a discussion about the issue.

Students from Horace Mann School in Riverdale also joined the protest.

“The reasons why we made the walk here because we want to show solidarity for the students at Fieldston,” one protester said. “It’s too late for this, we are getting tired of this. Going forward, we are reunited. We won’t tolerate this.”

They are pushing for bias training for faculty and parents, the hiring of more faculty of color and establishing a new system for reporting bias incidents.

A letter from the private school was sent out to parents regarding the sit-in.

At least one parent says he’s proud that students are standing up for what they believe in.

“I applaud them,” he said. “That is a true sign of bravery. At such a young age, taking a stance and standing up for yourself.”

This is amazing news!!!!

These kids are our future and I am so proud

DIRECT FUCKING ACTION HELL YEAH KIDS

Honestly if your anxiety is so bad that you can’t read like… something in the horror genre that I wrote (and tagged correctly) without tagging the post I made with “this literally made me have an anxiety attack i’m panicking omg my dereality is acting up” maybe you SHOULDN’T INTERACT WITH ME, because I’m a horror fan, I’m very open about being a horror fan, and I don’t like being guilt tripped over and over about a harmless piece of “creepy” writing I made!!

I’m talking about this kind of… growing group I see on this site and other sites who blames horror content creators for their anxiety issues that the creators have no control over? 

For example, Adam Ellis drew a pretty good horror comic about the ghost of a creepy nurse (it was not graphic in any way, and was fairly tame) and posted this DM he received about it on his Twitter:

For any concerned, Adam Ellis put absolutely no id’ing info on this post, so the person who sent it is safely anonymous. But I honestly hate this so much. If you are THIS afraid of a drawing of a creepy ghost, you should not engage with media that is LABELLED AS A HORROR COMIC! Many people with anxiety (including myself) create horror as an outlet for our own fears–Ellis even discussed the fact that his comic was tied to his very real fears of doxxing and harassment by certain fans/enemies online. Do you have any idea how genuinely horrible it feels to be told “this thing you created for fun/to vent caused me direct and terrible mental damage?” 

In short, stop being a manipulative, guilt-tripping asshole to horror creators. Stop engaging with horror media if you are so, so viscerally distressed by it that you send genuinely cruel things to people in an attempt to force them to apologize to you. A lot of horror creators use horror as an outlet to vent THEIR anxiety, and you are an asshole for trying to increase their anxiety by telling them that they “hurt you” by writing horror. G’night.

new critical thought: is the celebrity that everyone is calling a ““fashion icon”” really that fashionable or are they just skinny and rich?

*swings my bat at the hornets nest* 

LITERALLY EXACTLY WHAT BELLA’S WEARING!! EXACTLY THAT!!

This is torture. Solitary confinement for kids.

[ID: a white person in a blue FBI t-shirt, with long blonde hair and pink eye makeup, with the TikTok handle @elysian_cosplay. They sign as they speak, throughout the video. At some points, images appear behind them, of sources for the things they are discussing.

The CCs say: “Hey, I want to cover something important. As some of y'all know, I am deeply engrained in the Deaf culture because I want to be an interpreter, and I have Deaf family. The world is slowly becoming more accessible, and I am proud of our progress.

However, I want to discuss this school. This is the Memphis Oral School for the Deaf. The school will be opening soon, but they do not let their students sign, they discourage it. And now they require masks, which means Lipreading is out the window.

This article [there is an article on screen behind them] points out that even without masks, teachers would often cover their mouths when they spoke. So they couldn’t lip read. Their reasoning? To ensure that their students were “listening with their EARS”. Read that again.

You’re taking away their [Deaf children’s] language, they are not being given Dynamic Equivalence. They have nothing. When are y'all gonna learn that Deaf kids don’t need to be fixed? Please spread for awareness.“

End ID]

looked it up what she’s saying lines up with what I saw this is the deaf version of conversion therapy and should be illegal what kind of parent would send their kid to a place like this

If anything, government schools should be requiring all children to learn sign-language because it can be useful for communicating in silence, in deafening noise, or across distances without shouting. But that would require the Department of Education to care about improving children instead of producing drones.

Always see “real women” posts so here’s one for the dudes.

this says so much. I wish there were more posts like this. please.

body positivity and realistic body standards are important for guys too!

This makes me really happy!

This is important hello (x)

Reblogging again for the fuckboy who ignored it the first time

THIS IS SO IMPORTANT

*slow clap for australia* shit mates. Wow.

I will probably reblog this once a day

Reblog. Always reblog.

When are gonna talk about how (cis) female pedophiles get away with predatory behavior all the time from teachers having sex with their teenage students to women grooming children to everything else

To adult women online openly discussing their sexual attraction to famous teenage boys and girls and making nsfw content of fictional children and often times even real ones and disguising it as women's sexual liberation or something and how criticizing them makes you a misogynist

People reblogging without the addition on purpose because it makes them uncomfortable or because they disagree... don't reblog at all. I hope you know that pedophiles have been using this type of content to groom children since forever and even IF they didn't it's still fucking disgusting regardless. Fuck off and die

When your dad tries to guilt trip you into visiting him: “well I guess I’ll just spend the weekend all by myself...”

You say “glad to know we’re on the same page.” Slowly, he will have to adapt to just outright telling you what he thinks instead of playing mind games.

When your friend tries to hint that they’re mad at you without saying anything: “Oh, I’m fine, clearly you don’t need to worry about me,”

You say: “I’m glad you’re doing well. Call me if you want to talk, though!” Soon enough, they will accept that they can’t be passive aggressive with you.

When your boyfriend says: “All your friends are great, I really love *insert male friend* especially.”

You say: “I’m so glad you like my friends! I should invite them back soon.” He needs to understand that if he has a problem with your friends, he needs to just voice his concerns instead of being sarcastic and accusatory.

As someone who has lived through several toxic relationships and has an abusive father, I think one of the most important manipulation tools a toxic person has is excessive subtext and hidden meanings in their conversation. It hides all of the actual fighting from the eyes of onlookers while still hurting you, which is scary and makes you feel like you’re making it all up. Don’t put up with this bs. Make them stop hiding.

Make. Them. Say. What. They. Mean.

more alternative fat ppl!

wow how about that

Reblogged so fucking fast.

yo, i SMASHED that reblog button 

Contrary to many romance movies…

You don’t start a romantic relationship! By just walking down the street and talking to random strangers!!!

People aren’t single because they don’t want to put themselves in potential danger holy shit

Why some men are single:

IT GOT BETTER!

Someone said I should post this here
