I Think Tumblr Should Put Hearts And Stars Around My Mutuals When They Appear In My Notifs

more people would be for prison abolition if they just tried to send mail to an inmate even once

I’m really into internet discourse but only pointless and stupid internet discourse like how many holes there are in a straw (it’s 2)

The No Fly List isn’t a laughing matter and you all need to but down your “it/she lesbian catgirl hacked the government” memes for 5 fucking seconds and see that this is a massive exposition of the US government’s deeply entrenched racism and xenophobia that rips away people’s basic human rights and presumption of innocence. Everyone KNOWS that the US has severe issues involving the treatment of Southwest Asians and muslims, issues severe enough to pillage civilians for oil and destroy entire cultural monuments and history that cannot be ignored, and yet you all choose to look the other way anyways. If you all really gave half a fuck about tearing down imperialism and colonization as you say you do, you would do the bare minimum and acknowledge that 10% of the names on there are “Muhammed”. That there are CHILDREN on this list, because their name betrayed them and is used against them to accuse them of suspected terrorism. You would point how someone just exposed the US for violating basic rights everyone should have on a massive scale, how this airline wasn’t even supposed to have this list, and you would talk about it instead of saying “holy fucking bingle!”.

We need to learn when to put down our memes and face the reality that we can no longer avoid. We cannot stand idly by while we watch one of the world’s massive, most powerful governments mark people as terrorist with almost no procedure as to who can be put on there because of someone’s race and religion. We can’t keep avoiding the legacy that 9/11′s justification of going to war has created. We can’t keep avoiding the way that elected officials, especially Trump, have openly and proudly confessed to supporting things like this. We also need to acknowledge how lucky we are that this didn’t get into the wrong person’s hands, because it very easily could have. This isn’t funny, this is vile, and by laughing and not actually caring, we’re only serving to help this continue.

This is so funny now im seeing people talking abt "imperfect allies" and how we can't afford recriminations and "i told you so"s and how we need to really come together and build community now.

It's too little too late. Oh NOW we want to talk abt imperfect allies, when earlier you called me a zionist cunt who deserves to die for DARING to suggest that kamala would be a better president for marginalized people in this country? NOW we need to look past differences and embrace our shared humanity?

No. You just need my labor again, you just need black and jewish and women and trans labor to do all the hard work of building a backbone of aid and solidarity again, because you're feeling the loneliness and vulnerability of a fractured, losing movement.

Finally taking part in dracula daily thx to @re-dracula 's AMAAAAZING podcast.

This shit kinda gay! 👀

I think it's important to let guys be gender non conforming without telling them they're a girl, cause actually misgendering people is still shit even when you are pro trans. "You're a girl, an egg waiting to crack, and that's ok" how about you are a boy and a man and it's still ok if you want to do something that doesn't align with traditional ideals of your gender. You can still be he/him in a skirt and makeup.

The talk I gave tonight was primarily about how babies, as well as young children, experience hyperconsciousness, something that is often considered one of the main reasons why children at these stages are ‘difficult’ to handle.

Kids man, they encompass some of the most phenomenal thought processes and it is all driven by the fact that this whole world is completely new to them. If you want to see abstract ideas constructed in a matter of seconds, talk to a child. Their grasp is unbelievable.

Even if you feel that children whine, cry, and scream too much… in considering how they’re in a world they had no prior concept of, and are subject to an uncontrollable amount of stimuli every waking moment…. I still believe they’re handling it all fairly well.

This conference made me realize how much of a passion I have for destigmatizing childhood behaviors. There’s a sort of ‘Ahh..’ moment that people come to when they see that children actually have reasons for everything they do, that they shouldn’t be viewed as underdeveloped ‘functioning’ adults but should instead be recognized as humans in a separate yet equally important stage of life.

I’ve also been doing some work in researching and writing about children as an oppressed class, I’m finding ways to incorporate my previous sentiments into that.
