Just a stone cold weirdo who can't decide if they are gonna be uplifting or way too depressing. Fandoms galore, and books are my true love. Plus who doesn't enjoy the adult side of tumblr even if it doesn't end up on my page.

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

with some characters it’s hard to choose what my Very Favorite Moment of theirs is, and then there’s odo and the time it’s revealed that he’s been keeping a padd on his desk, front and center, with an itemized list of every security failure on the enterprise, just waiting for the moment worf snapped and complained about how odo does his job

there’s petty and then there’s petty and prepared

this is the face of a changeling who loves three things in this world: thwarting quark, major kira, and insulting the integrity of starfleet security

You can’t want to normalize people exploring their gender expression, or being gender non-conforming, and then gatekeep who gets to do it. You can’t have it both ways.

Straight cis men wearing feminine clothing, liking “feminine” things, and defying traditional gender roles is a good thing.

Straight cis women wearing masculine clothing, liking “masculine” things, and defying traditional gender roles is a good thing.

Let cis people fuck around with what pronouns they use. Let cis people fuck around with what gendered terms they apply to themselves. Every person deserves the right to explore their gender identity, even if they still identify as cis at the end of the day.

The Doctor being snarky at their past/future selves is always a delight :D

The best bit from the John Hurt scene is the line right afterwards where his reaction to Ten and Eleven is “AM I HAVING A MID-LIFE CRISIS”

Hey all! My sister started a @gofundme page for this incredible cause. A town where her husband is from in Mexico has a terrible problem with the mistreatment of animals. These funds would directly help to rescue, rehabilitate, and then search for good homes for these animals.#spreadthelove Thank you for taking time to check it out and your consideration in donating! 🐕❤️

Not as Smart

[danielle-mertina]

Today one of my students asked me if enslaved women received maternity leave. And I answered it...without making them feel wrong or stupid for asking. But it really makes me understand why there's such a lack of empathy or understanding when it comes to race issues. A lot of people have no idea what went on during slavery.

For example, today my class learned that FIFTY percent of Black infants born to enslaved mothers passed away before their first birthday mostly due to malnourishment.

[afronerdism]

The horrors of slavery have been so scrubbed from the american consciousness

whenever someone is like ‘why do burger-flippers deserve to make the same amount as x?’ and i just ask ‘have you considered that maybe x deserves to be paid more?’ because it never occurs to people that if these people are being underpaid, then there is a chance that so are they.

[zooophagous]

I see this all the time with people bringing up paramedics. “You want 15$ an hour as a burger flipper! I made less than that as an EMT!”

Yeah and it was wrong to pay YOU that little too. You got overworked and underpaid and the amount of money the McDonalds employee in the drive through gets has no bearing what so ever on what an EMT makes. Pay the EMT more too.

[saint-batrick]

it distresses me that anyone whose job it is to save my fucking life is making less now than i was in an office job in 2007.
