*Screeches into Oblivion*

It’s okay to not want to have sex ever. It’s okay to never even try it.

[thefisherqueen]

I was 23 before it even occurred to me that not starting with sex ever was an option. The feeling of relief was so great I actually cried. 

You don’t have to if you don’t want to. You can have a fine live without ever having sex, I promise you. 

[impostoradult]

Also, it’s okay to never date anyone ever. It’s okay to never even try it if you don’t want to. 

I wrote a master’s thesis on intentionally single people, and the number of them that said in various ways, “I didn’t know not dating people was even an option at first” was absolutely tragic. They honestly thought they had no choice and it never occurred to them that opting out was even a possibility available to them.  

People honestly believe these are life experience you are required to have AND THEY ARE NOT.

You can just not have sex. You can just not date people. You can completely by-pass one or both of those things. Neither of those things are required to be healthy, happy, normal, mature, fulfilled, or any of the other bullshit notions that get attached to these things.

Sex positivity is about bodily agency which includes the choice to NOT/NEVER have sex, so inclusion of asexual/celibate/sex repulsed people will always be a pillar of any real discussion of sex positivity and sexual freedom.

THIS RIGHT HERE

[afronerdism]

You guys are dangerously close to realizing specifically what kinds of people they keep from voting and why.

[molothoo]

I want to drill this into everybody’s head:

The United States of America has the highest prison population in the world

Black Americans and Latin people make up the majority of this population (many of whom are non-violent offenders)

Federal Prisons in America require that their state keeps their prisons at a maximum occupancy at all times.

The 13th amendment did not entirely abolish slavery…just one form of it. It remains legal through industrial prison system

[scretladyspider]

Oh and we have privatized prisons which allow companies to actually make money off of keeping people incarcerated

Here’s what’s really perverse: prisoners, who cannot vote, still get counted in the U.S. Census. The more prisoners a county has, the more representation it gets, even though the prisoners cannot vote. See how that works? The more black and brown people they lock up, the more government resources and political representation they get. Even though those prisoners have no say and cannot vote.

If county-A has a population of 50 voters but no prisons, and county-B has a population of 50 voters and 50 prisoners, the county with the prisoners gets more government funding and more political represention. This is sometimes called “prison gerrymandering” and it is used in redistrictring.

Not so fun Fact: Southern states that reliably vote for Republicans also have the highest prison population in the United States. (source). So mass incarceration is a double whammy. It’s both a form of voter suppression and a tool to strengthen white people’s political power.

When they were first establishing this system, everyone was trying to decide whether to go with this electoral college thing or yknow, “most votes win”

Only way you could be eligible to vote was being a white man WITH property. White southerners didn’t have many people with property, and thus would be at a disadvantage. They did, however, have a lot of slaves. So of course they were in favor for the electoral college, since all those slaves wouldn’t be able to vote AND they got the voting power to run things. Northern states recognized their aim, and so to not give The South too much power, every slave counted as 3/5 of a person. That’s what the 3/5 Compromise was all about

We know what happens afterwards: Black people were freed, and they(mainly Black men at the time) were allowed to vote. White people did not like that, so they invented ludicrous laws called the Black Codes to find excuses to arrest and take away Black citizens’ freedom again (not being employed, testifying against white people in court, failing to pay a fee) Now they have their slaves back AND get more state voting power since we are recognized as full fledged citizens. As we see above, these laws still linger under different names

TLDR: Slavery will most likely be the answer when one questions why systems are the way they are

Like a month ago I messaged a craft group about accessibility for wheelchairs and the answer I got was “there’s a lot of stairs but we have cute boys who can carry you”. And it’s…not good. As a wheelchair bound person I largely depend on people when I want to go out and do *anything* so I’m used to it, I laugh it off, make an annoyed post about it and off I go. But I wanna just say a thing real quick.

Even if I wasn’t gay, wasn’t a survivor scared of men, getting help as a disabled person is just…Not a pleasant thing to us! Imagine for a sec how you’d feel being carried up a flight of stairs. You’re a grown person. You’re being touched in an awkward way. You’d rather do it yourself. You’re So Uncomfortable. It’s not where I look for the beginning of a romantic relationship. So like…could abled people stop doing this thing where they think helping us in a condescending and infantilizing way is cute? Cause I’m real tired. Just get me a ramp or lift and I’m cool. I don’t need a dating service when I’m just trying to go about my day

[sickbitterandcoveredinglitter]

If you’re abled please reblog it cause like…the more ppl knows the better

[bluering8]

listen to me, this is so so important: you've gotta get used to really giving it your 60% as a default. like don't half-ass it necessarily but try not to go over 70% or so of an ass. you'll feel better and live a happier more fulfilled life, and on the rare occasions where you do need to lock the fuck in you'll be able to pull off bullshit that the sad miserable wretches giving it their 100% can never dream of, because they're busy draining themselves dry and you have energy reserves to spare.

average tumblr staff post does read like.

We Heard You. We Understand We Fucked Up. Please Please Please Forgive Us. Ohh Crawling Like A Worm. Sliding Across The Linoleum. We're Sorry. We're Sorry. We're Sorry.

Alrernate Ending:

We Heard You. We Disagree. You Will Get Over This. Please Please Please Stop Complaining. Crawl For Me Like A Worm. Show Us Your Tits. Lick My Heel. Lick My Heel. Lick My Heel.

Notes:

Second poll will remain open until 50 years from publishing

Bot options share a UUID, making a vote for either count for both

Previously, a vote in the first poll counted for both options in the second

A vote for the second poll increases the vote count for both polls, despite the first ostensibly being closed

[mollyjames]

[mollyjames]

I'll be honest I reblogged armpit sniffing fairy without a second thought. It was pure instinct. Thanks anyway everyone, it was worth a try

[butchdemiurge]

the fatness Overton window is absolutely fucked

[butchdemiurge]

we should be hunting down people who say they love fat bitches while strictly meaning people who are still slim-ish but just don’t have perfectly flat stomachs and we should drawing and quartering these people in the streets. four horses. or four oxen. Five oxen
