has anyone noticed that to clean smth u often have to get smth else dirty
massively fucked up
to my friends in red states, please stay safe and watch out for each other. stay inside and avoid going out if you don’t need to. not to stir up fear in the wake of victory, but there are numerous watchdog organizations warning people — especially black and trans folks — to expect a sharp uptick in violence and tension. the naacp has issued a warning to black people in missouri to STAY INSIDE, STAY TOGETHER, STAY SAFE. check on your friends. stay informed. if you aren’t following them already, check out the naacp website and watchdog organizations to keep an eye on things in your area.
to white folks, this is a time for you to celebrate as well, but things are far from over. reach out to your poc and trans friends, particularly your black and trans friends, and check on them and make sure they feel safe. DO NOT STOP DONATING TO PAYPALS AND GOFUNDMES. CONTINUE SHARING RESOURCES AND INFORMATION. CONTINUE PARTICIPATING IN COMMUNITY AID. electing biden did not simultaneously wipe out the issues many marginalized communities are facing. YOUR PART IN THIS IS NOT OVER BECAUSE THIS FIGHT IS NOT OVER. continue spreading
to succinctly sum up the energy we need to cultivate going forward:
you can reblog this. white people can and should reblog this. likes do nothing for us.
What about my right to participate my future significant others health and life is ‘Novel’ what this man takes as a privledge he sees as a right for himself and if this isn’t some crazy hypocritical bull shit I don’t know what is. They’re really coming for our rights just because they hate us. They don’t care about freedom of religion they just hate us. People’s opinions on my marriage shouldn’t be more important than my marriag. What are they going to do? Invalidate marriage certificates in states that don’t choose to keep same sex marriage legal? This is beyond insane
Fatigue
I do not know why my fatigue has to do me wrong. I woke up exhausted and decided that I’d take a quick nap. I accidentally slept for five hours. Like damm that is a lot of time lost can y’all relate?
Baby rant my bad
(I can’t make my text big anymore and I’m sad)
Ok heres the actual rant. I decided like an absolute idiot yesterday that I felt really good for the first time in a long time and that I wouldn’t use my walking aids. So I put on cute skinny jeans ,which are a big no during flare ups for me, I put on my cute Alice in Wonderland tank and shave for the first time in months and feel hella cute. Fix my hair looking all androgenous and made my non-binary/genderfluid Lesbian heart so happy . I go to my contacts fitting cuz I’m low vision blind as well and its the first time I’ve ever gone in without my aids there and people just seemed to treat me nicer tbh. Then I went home and held my snake and watched TV and it was going great. Now cut to this morning and I woke up in agony and can’t put pressure on my left leg or my left arm and I hate it here.

Reblog and put in the tags how you would die if your URL predicted your death
HAPPY NATIONAL DAY OF LESBIANS
Happy national day of lesbians y’all. Especially to my fellow non-binary lesbians and trans lesbians. Y’all are so valid and I hope that in the f our community steps up and shows its support to all ou fellow lesbians no matter what. Also to my fellow beloved disabled lesbians having flare ups today or a good day yall are valid too and don’t ever feel less because people don’t understand how you can be a desirable queer person while not be their ideal type of body. We are all beautiful and deserves love from ourselves.
Transphobia
Transphobia is runni rampant more then ever in the WLW especially lesbian community and its so frustrating to go on a pro trans women post to show support as an enbie to find Terfs in there saying that Terf is a compliment and that they have such a superiority complex that they think its a compliment that I hate them for being pro violating human rights and harassment. So just remember genital preference may not be trans but you invalidating trans women and saying its offensive that saphic trans girls havw hit on you is transphobic. Just a friendly reminder your transphobia is not cute. Its not quirky. Its repulsive and volatile.
I just discovered the bigger text setting and I’m sorry to all my fellow visually impaired people for not being able to read my posts sooner. This is great I can actually read my own posts sorta.
A curious incident of the dog in the night tim
My class is doing the play of the aform book. The main character has Autism so I’m concerned about the casting because how can you get accurate rep if you have neurotypicals playing characters who arent. So to all the people who can have valid opinions on this. Is it ableist for them to be playing this show?
JK ROWLING IS A TERF
im so mad I don’t know where to begin with her crusade against trans girls and women. To portray some of the most marginalized people as predators when many of them worshiped her and became writers because of her. My friend he became a writer and she turned on him saying trans men are just abused women trying to escape womanhood. She really is projecting the image that trans women are just men in women’s clothing trying to prey on women that she wrote a whole book with a cross dressing serial killer to project these beliefs. I am so TIRED of having to fight so pe give me basic respect and now she’s attacking innocent peopl while doctors and pediatricians beg her to stop spreading this hate that is hurting the children they care for. She’s hurting the children she claims this little crusade of hers is to protec. She puts up that shirt saying ’This witch won’t burn‘ while going on a witch hunt against trans women herself. I’m so disgusted by her actions and how they’re impacting peopl I know and care for.
Disability body positivity
Am I the only one who gets a little annoyed with the body positivity phrases ‘You are not your body’? Like yes I am my body. My body dictates everything I do and everywhere I go and how I experience life. Its ok that I have these problems and I’ll love my body anyway but I want people to stop telling me that I can love myself in spite of my body. I am my disabilities they define me but its ok to love and celebrate my disabilities. I know this is something abled people probably don’t think about too much but it feels patronizing.
I’ve seen a lot of posts on my dash tonight about users who are threatening suicide, with other Tumblr members posting in effort to try to get ahold of them. I think you all should see this:
IF THERE IS EVER A TUMBLR USER WHO HAS POSTED A GOOD-BYE MESSAGE, SUICIDE NOTE, VIDEO, OR ANYTHING OF THE SORT, PLEASE FOLLOW THIS POST.
1. Scroll to the top of your dashboard.
2. See the circular question mark icon at the top? It’s the third one over from your home symbol. Click on that, and a screen similar to the one in the picture will come up.
3. Where you can type in questions, the box with the magnifying glass at the top, type in the word “suicide.”
4. Click on the first link that shows up. It should say, “Pass the URL of the blog on to us.”
5. Type in the user’s URL and tell Tumblr admin that the user is contemplating suicide and has posted a message indicating that they are going through with it or will be attempting. Hit send! Tumblr administration will perform a number of actions to contact the user and take the necessary steps to prevent the suicide.
TUMBLR: THIS COULD SAVE A USER’S LIFE. PLEASE DO NOT IGNORE SUICIDE THREATS.
Reblog this to keep other users aware. Suicide isn’t a joke, and neither is someone’s life. If you didn’t know this, someone else may not, either. Pass it on.
stop looking at disabilities through ableist lenses. if you have problems with your legs or feet but don’t use a wheelchair, you’re still disabled and don’t let anyone tell you otherwise. mental illness? disabled. you don’t have to look or behave a certain way in the eyes of others to be disabled. you might not think you’re disabled, but the definition is:
“(of a person) having a physical or mental condition that limits movements, senses, or activities.”
This is so important
No, JK Rowling is not just saying "biological sex is real".
She is using debunked pseudoscience to attempt to invalidate the existence and rights of a vulnerable, marginalized group of living, breathing human beings.
She's disgusting. And she knows it, too. If you have the self-awareness to say "People like me are often called TERFs.”, you know you’re shitty. You just don't care.
I don't care how big a fan I was. I cannot in good conscience continue to support her.
I'm done, for good.
This is so cute
Sokka is the first to notice Zuko's loss of vision on the left
He approached him once in classic Sokka fashion, loud and annoying and with complete lack of respect for personal space
Zuko tried not to flinch too obviously but Sokka noticed anyway, ofc
Since then he always comes from the right
When he has to be at his left, he announces himself even more loudly than usual
No one else noticed much difference, but Zuko does
He's been waiting for the other shoe to drop ever since Sokka found about about his eye
He's expecting threats or weakness being taken an advantage of or other such plans as would be expected by the strategist of the team
He has no idea what to do with polite accommodation and normalcy
This continues while they're still not quite trusting each other, still figuring stuff out
Sokka remains respectful and knows it makes Zuko nervous to have anyone he doesn't trust on his left
This little fact is what changes everything at the Boiling Rock
At the temple, there isn't constant threat to Zuko. Sokka then can afford to be careful of the guy's boundaries, and he's not necessarily the closest to him either
But at the prison suddenly they're surrounded by hostile people everywhere
Sokka sticks to Zuko's left whenever they're together
Zuko notices, and by now he's at least realised that normal people trying to be his friends wouldn't use a weakness against him
He stopped expecting Sokka to turn on him a while ago, but here he notices what the strategist of the group actually does with knowing his team's weaknesses
He protects them, maybe even subconsciously
Sokka knows Zuko needs the reassurance, and he's always there, at his left
When they fight together, they fit into a rhythm unthinkingly, and from then on Sokka is always at his left
Zuko doesn't quite know what it's like to feel safe, but when Sokka is next to him, guarding his greatest insecurity, he thinks maybe he's learning
Sokka sits at his left in meetings with war hungry generals
Sokka still announces himself when coming to him from the left
When they start dating, it gets worse (better)
Sokka always has a hand or arm on or around him, and he's always on the left
Zuko thinks maybe he'll forget what it felt like for his left side to not feel safe
Now it's entirely just Sokka's space
Please help them if you can
Guys, I really, really, can’t stress this enough. my posts haven’t been getting any attention and the people JUST turned off our water today so me and my mom are left without any! We’re both disabled and without food too, so this makes it harder for us to get by unless we pay off our WATER BILL. We need almost all the help we can get because for the past few days, we’ve been doing nothing but struggling!
I don’t know how much we’d need, but PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE! help us out! I hate having to ask for help, but everything has been going nothing but awful for us! we haven’t ate in 4 days and I’m starving too. ANY donation counts at this point as long as it helps!
Mom’s cash.app is/ $GiveMeMoney77004
we don’t use paypal anymore and this is our only way! My dogs need to eat too as they’ve only had water before it was cut off…
I hate every second of this experience
"yeah don't worry tho I'm doing fine"

Yes I relate to this so much
Disabled people: We're disabled-
Abled person: You mean...DIFFERENTLY ABLED?
No. No, if we say disabled, we mean disabled. Most of us hate the whole "differently abled" thing. If someone likes or prefers it, that's fine, but don't blanket assume we are or refer to us collectively as such. Disabled is not a dirty word.
