Asexuals were always part of pride and it really fucking shows when people think it's a recent term.
Although not going by the term "asexual" yet, asexuality was spoken about alongside homosexuality as far back as the 1890s. Asexual history is just as vital to queer history as any other term and I'm so tired of watching us being treated like a new thing
This image is so so fucking important to me
Reblog this, cowards
ACAB. Death to the state!
Knowing that trans women of color started the movement in the united states and were literally immediately erased and excluded from what they started is the most deeply jading knowledge.
It is the original sin of the so-called queer community and it damns it from the cradle.
no white gay boy will ever reblog this, watch:
no white gay will reblog this
no white lgb person will reblog this
#LwiththeT
can I “Super Reblog” this? is there any way I can signal boost beyond a normal reblog without paying money for a boost or tip or something? because with all the horrid news these days, it’s THIS that keeps me going! <3

Image descriptions: 6 pictures of a bunch of people in what seems to be a Welsh Pride Parade. 1. A group of different people holding a big banner of the trans and the rainbow gay flag together labelled as “#LWithTheT, - not a debate -”. Some people hold smaller rainbow flags and in the background, letters spelling “pride” are formed with rainbow balloons. Around them are some stores, including one named “forbidden planet” and another showcasing the Welsh flag. 2. A group of different peopel holding a different banner, pink, with the phrase “Support your sisters, not cisters! [the second “sisters” is written with a “c”, like in “cis”] The LesBisch activisme is trans-inclusief”. The banner has a logo in the shape of a losangle with a rainbow gradient, with the words “On Derste Boven” on its right, and the same words inverted upside-down on its left. 3. A group of people marching and holding another banner, this one plain white with black bold letters and saying “manchester lesbians stand by your trans [the “our” in “your trans” is highlighted in red]“. Below the phrase is also written ”#StandByYourTrans” and “#LWithTheT”. The banner is also decorated with a bunch rainbow gay and trans pride flags. The people in the crowd hold a lot of smaller posters saying “Black Dyke Energy”, “Dyke Power”, “Lez be friends ❤️”, “#L with the T”, “Stand By Your T”, and some others too far away to be read, one apparently mentioning “terfs”. 4. Another crowd holding a “#L with the T (not a debate)” rainbow flag/trans flag banner, and a lot of smaller cardboard posters, saying “Trans women are sexy”, “Trans women fought for gay rights”, and many other too far away for reading, and also a lot of gay pride flags and trans pride flags. 5. A close-up in the crowd of the third picture, focusing in one black women with a yellow dress and short curly hair and the people around them, with the “manchester lesbians stand by your trans” banner poking into the image. The woman is smilling and holding a cardboard poster saying “Black Dyke Energy #LWithTheT”. Some of the posters described in the 3rd picture are also visible here, and beside the black woman is another person wearing sunglasses and a black t-shirt saying “#Stand by your trans”. 6. A bunch of people followed by a red car, holding more posters. They say “Trans sisters are sisters #LWithTheT 🩷” and “Chwarae Teg”. There is a Welsh flag hung in the background, and the car has a trans pride flag with two Welsh flag red dragons standing in front of each other and making a heart with their hands on its hood. /end ID.
Hell yeah!!! Let’s fucking gooooo
(thanks for ID)
can’t even joke about wishing my fics could write themselves without people mistaking it for ai usage anymore. what a lost whimsy
I don’t want AI to plagiarize-autocorrect its way to a fic I want little fic house elves to crawl out of the floorboards and finish my fic for me in exchange for a thimble of milk
When I say I want my fics to write themselves, I mean that I wish my brain would actually let me write without me getting all perfectionist and ADHD about it.
celine,,, what do u mean celine,,, celine come back
They already did that 😂
Nah Celine is just sick of Rumi being so oblivious to Mira and Zoey's flirting. (I wonder where she got that from)
[Photo ID: a two panel B&W drawing of Celine and Rumi.
Celine, looking at Rumi: it's pride month, Rumi, you know what that means
Rumi, visibly confused: huh what
Second panel
Rumi even more confused: do you want us to like turn the honmoon gay what
Celine: * saying nothing and walking off smiling*
Next to Rumi is a small drawing of Mira and Zoey doing the sloppily making out meme.

rumi goes on some survivalist competition show and people are mega confused bc its not even a celebrity competition show, it’s a normal one that is notable for just how brutal it can get for its competitors. they get almost nothing to start off with, and are expected to do everything on their own, with a camera feed on them almost all the time. the goal is just to outlast your competitors. you can tap out at any time, and if production feels it’s necessary (which it sometimes does) it will essentially forcibly med evac you.
everyone is questioning how this nepo baby pop princess is gonna be able to make it past the first day, with several people tuned in just hoping to see her crash out early on
but rumis been raised with a lot of survival knowledge. she knows how to start a fire, hunt, fish (with and without a pole), preserve food, make a cooking spit, etc
by the end of day 1, shes the only one with shelter. and its a good shelter too, one that people got to watch her build in real time. its sturdy, and warm, and somehow, inexplicably, made of WOOD. she actually built a little hut.
shes got enough preserved food to get her through several months ready by the time any other people have built proper shelter
millions of people watch as the queen of kpop gets through this competition effortlessly. no one can quite fully believe what theyre watching but they cant look away, and they have no choice but to start to believe
almost a month in, all but one other person is left. the weather has been a nightmare for the other contestants. people who were doubting rumi at the start are now her honest to god fans.
the last one other than rumi is cold and pale, shivering and struggling to make a proper fire. his food is dwindling. he’s not looking too hot, and people are pretty sure that if he doesnt just give up outright in the next day or so, hes gonna be med evaced
rumi looks just fine, health wise.
but shes clearly sullen. her health has stayed steady this whole time, but her mood has been nosediving over the course of the last few weeks
“its weird,” she says to the camera at one point, while chewing on a piece of jerky she made herself, “if i was doing this a decade ago, i would probably have been in good spirits right about now. i didnt have many people in my life who i could consider close to me. this isolation would’ve meant nothing to me.
“but since then, ive met mira and zoey. two people who i couldnt imagine my life without. whose souls feel so tethered to my own.” her voice grows rough. “these past few weeks have been agony without them. i havent even been able to hear their voices. look at their faces. my only solace is that my dreams are full of the two of them, and my mind has cataloged every detail about them to the most minute of them all, so their voices are closer to echoes in my brain than imitations, and their faces appear to me as vividly as if they were in front of me.”
she stares at the jerky in her hand. “i cant wait to go home to them. i wont quit, even though it kills me being away from them any longer.” she turns her attention back to the camera, and points at it, knowing her girls are watching her in that very moment. there are tears in her eyes. “just you wait, mira and zoey, im gonna win this whole thing, and when i do, we’ll never be apart ever again!” her lip wobbles, and the tears begin to spill. “i love you girls so much!”
(back home, mira and zoey clutch each other, sobbing as they watch her, “WE LOVE YOU TOO!”)
luckily, it only takes another day for rumi to win the show. her picture is shown next to those of the former winners at the end of the last episode, and the contrast between their end of show appearances (tired, malnourished, pale) and hers (well rested, full, flushed) is almost terrifying.
her speech to her girls goes viral online, as do the images and videos of her being picked up from the airport by mira and zoey in big, sobbing hugs
Imagine being in that competition, you can't watch the show, you only know what's going on if you see it in person or hear about it from someone. It's three days in, you're already close to tapping out, but probably closer to a med evac. You still don't have proper shelter. You haven't been able to build a fire. You've been doing your best to only eat stuff that's edible raw, but it's still a miracle you haven't gotten food poisoning.
Then a fucking kpop star comes up to you, her hair still seems freshly dyed, her health is fine, and she's just like "hey, you seem like you're having trouble. Do you want some shelter for tonight?" And you're confused but you figure this isn't an intense enough show for someone to fucking hansel and gretel you, so sure.
It's a log cabin. It's a whole ass log cabin. She has freshly baked bread, toothpaste, soap, and a fucking sword. HOW DID SHE MAKE A SWORD HERE‽‽‽
I had to pull these out of the comments
[Photo ID: Two replys by user stoically:
Rumi, rediscovers pottery while alone in the wild. Makes three bowls, confusing the audience. Doesn't notice she's made three books until she sits down for supper and tries to hand them to Mira and Zoey. Pauses. Looks at the two extra bowls. Slowly sets them aside while staring blankly into the fire. Builds a table the next day and sets out the bowls in front of the chairs carved with Mira's and Zoey's names.
Rumi's winner speech goes something like "I was having. Really great time except for the pine." Interviews: "I didn't realize you were allergic to pine trees?"
Rumi: "I'm not. I'm allergic to being without my girls. Makes my nose get stuffy and my eyes water." Interviewer: "Right, well. What's the thing you're most looking forward to now that you can return to civilization?"
Rumi, tears in her eyes: "Zoey and Mira"
Interviewer, trying really hard: "What's the first thing you'll do when you get back?"
Rumi: "I'm going to hug them until we can cuddle on the couch."
Interviewer, desperately seeking an answer that doesn't involve Mira or Zoey: "What's the first thing you'll eat when you get back?"
Rumi: *stares at him* *whispers* "Am I allowed to say that on tv?"

To put it very bluntly.

Immigrants at an ICE detention complex in Southern California have launched a hunger strike, citing inadequate medical care, and overcrowdin
Another hunger strike at another ICE concentration camp.
From the article:
Caleb Soto, an immigration attorney who goes inside Adelanto every week to speak with clients, said that detainees wait weeks or months for a medical appointment to be approved, which often results in a 60-second appointment that ends with Tylenol or a salt packet. “I have watched people age in front of me in a number of months,” said Soto. [...]
Disability Rights California, a nonprofit advocacy group that visited Adelanto and published a report on its findings in June 2025, noted “inadequate access to food and water, including extreme delays in meal distribution, provision of food that results in significant health issues, and a shortage of drinking water.” One person quoted in their report noted that he needed to take diabetes medication twice per day, but had only received it twice over the 10 days he had been detained, placing him at life-threatening risk of diabetic shock. [...] Activists say there have been reports of detention staff suspending phone calls for detainees as punishment for discussing conditions there.
As someone recently diagnosed with ADHD as an adult, one thing that’s been helping me grapple with the intense shame I have over all my “wasted potential” is accepting that potential doesn’t exist and never did.
This sounds so harsh, but please bare with me.
I procrastinated a lot growing up. I still procrastinate today, but less so. And yet, I got good grades. I could write an A+ paper that “knocked [my professor]’s socks off” in the hour before class and print it with sweat running down my face.
I was so used to hearing from teachers and family that if I just didn’t procrastinate and worked all the time, I could do anything! I had all this potential I wasn’t living up to!
And that’s true, as far as it goes, but that’s like saying if Usain Bolt just kept going he could be the fastest marathon runner in the world. Why does he stop at the end of the race??
If ANYONE could make their top speed/most productive setting the one they used all the time, anyone could do anything. But you can’t. Your top speed is not a speed you’re able to sustain.
Now, I’ve found that I do need to work on not procrastinating. Not because the product is better, even, but because it’s better for my mental health and physical health to not have a full, sweating, panicked breakdown over every task even if the task itself turns out excellently. It’s a shitty way to live! You feel bad ALL the time! And I don’t deserve to live like that anymore.
So all of this to say, I’m not wasting a ton of potential. I don’t have an ocean of productivity and accomplishments inside of me that I could easily, effortlessly access if I just sat down 8 hours a day and worked. There’s no fucking way. That’s not real. It’s an illusion. It’s fine not to live up to an illusion.
And if you have ADHD, I mean this from the bottom of my heart: you do not have limitless potential confounded by your laziness. You have the good potential of a good person, and you can access it with practice and work, but do not accept the story that you are choosing not to be all that you are or can be. You are just a human person.
"Potential" is such a manipulative word, in that it implies that if you weren't failing to maintain your personal responsibilities to society, you would not only be good, you would be great, you would be a success.
It shows that we are conditioned from a young age to believe that if we don't do what is expected of us, that it is a personal failing, regardless of if those expectations are actually achievable without inflicting harm upon ourselves.
Our mental health is in shreds because we're expected to live on a knife-edge of endless growing goals and painful failure, and we're supposed to get through it all as individuals.
Holy shit this is some galaxy brain revelation here

Btw. If you're a teacher and you catch one of your students (kids, tweens, teens) using AI for the first time, please be gentle with them.
Last week i was looking into one of my teen's homework when I noticed she was writing words she "wasn't supposed to know" in english (like "furthermore", for example. They only know very intermediary english) I got a bit mad for a second. I wear an "anti-AI" button all the time, i even told them before why i was anti-AI, yet she didn't listen to me and thought she could get away with it... But i decided to keep it cool because i didn't know why she would do this, since she never did.
Okay, one week after, this Wednesday, it was time for their class again and, when she arrived, i told her to come to my desk and asked her: "what is furthermore?" She went pale when she noticed the paper in my hands. I asked again: "darling, what is furthermore?" Then, she shuttered: "I don't know, teacher. I'm sorry, I had to ask Gemini because I had no time..." then I sat her down, she was clearly upset (she is just 13) and I asked her what happened. "I didn't have any time left because of my exams and there were too many units to go through. So I asked my mom to help me and she told me to use ChatGPT but I asked google instead." Okay. So I looked into her eyes and told her it was okay, that she didn't need to be upset, but she would have to re-do that paper and bring it back to me by the next week. I told her she didn't need google or gpt to do her work, because she got a very high score at her english exam (both at school and at the course). She got right back on her feet and we started class as normal.
The only reason why I'm telling you this is because I hate AI. I hate it SO much. But, as a teacher now, I hate ANYTHING that takes the learning process away from kids. I hate the GLOSSARY in my kids' books as well for the same reason bc they don't want to figure the words out with me, they want to check the answer as fast as they can to get rid of that boring thing and I don't blame them for wanting to get rid of the boring task! But I blame ADULTS for allowing the kids to go the fast way, when they need the slow process to learn something! Her MOM told her to use ChatGPT to ace her homework. You know, the person PAYING the course bills so her daughter can learn english at an early age doesn't care about her learning process. But I do. I care. And you should care too. It's not my student's fault, it's about the learned helplessness, it's about wanting to be the fastest, it's about the knowledge scrapping, the way nobody cares anymore. And the kids are being affected by parents who don't care anymore. They're byproducts of this. So please, when teaching them why AI is bad, be gentle. It's not their fault the world around them is teaching them how to be dumb in a smart, sneaky way.
the person who helped today when I fell out of my wheelchair actually did a really great job, so I want to share in case other people wonder what to do. [Note: this is not universal, this is merely a suggestion from one person, every wheelchair user's needs are different! I am a person who uses a manual chair usually pushed by someone else who is also disabled.]
Scenario: you see someone in a wheelchair fall out of their chair, and you have the ability to help.
1. Approach and ask "are you okay?"*
2. Next question if they say no, are vague, or open to continuing conversation** is, "is there anything I can do to help?" Or "what can I do?"
If they say no to help, then that's the end, just leave and go do whatever you were doing!
If they ask for help or say they are mildly injured, ask "what would you like me to do?" And wait for an answer before doing anything! If they seem dazed or confused, they might have hit their head or had another medical event*, or they might just be like that due to regular disability. Be patient.
Do not touch the person unless they say to, or they are like, unconcious in the middle of the road, ya know?? Wheelchair users usually have conditions that mean being handled improperly can severely injure us, you could cause much more damage than the fall.
Some things they might need you to do:
Bring their wheelchair closer (mine went about 5 feet away after it dumped me)
engage the brakes of the wheelchair
hold wheelchair steady if it's an unsteady surface (mud, hill, ramp, wet, etc)
offer an arm for them to hold onto to get up (them grabbing you, not you grabbing them) or move another solid item closer for them to use (i.e. a chair) [only do this if you physically have the ability to!]
If the terrain is rough (i.e. a parking lot), they *might* ask you to push their chair to a more stable area once they are back in their chair
nothing
Something else
Do what they ask, NOT what you think would be helpful. If for some reason you have to do something (i.e. you can't stop oncoming traffic and need to get them out) ASAP, tell them what you plan to do
Keep in mind they might also be D/deaf, have a communication disability, be stunned after the fall, have a head injury, not trust other people, etc. Be patient and treat them as a person with autonomy and agency! They might need to just sit on the ground for a few minutes to recover before trying to get back in their chair. They might want everyone to leave them alone. They might ask you to call someone specific. Their chair might have broken and that can be extremely distressing. All of this is like if your legs spontaneously stop working when you're out and about!
A lot of wheelchair users (NOT ALL) have ways to get into their chair on their own once the chair is close enough and brakes engaged (but it's hard from the ground!). Here's what brakes look like on a lot of manual wheelchairs, in case they ask you to lock the brakes. They're levers on each side and pushing the lever pushes a bar against the wheel to hold it still.
ID: A manual wheelchair with the brake levels circled in red and labeled "user brake levers"
*There is also the possibility of course that a person fell out of their chair due to a seizure or other medical event, so that is why it is important to ask if they are okay. If you saw them hit their head, tell them so. If they had a medical event, follow protocol for that, I'm not gonna get into it here (thought I could).
**sometimes a person will be clear after the first question i.e. "I'm all good thanks" clearly means they do not need you to ask another question, you can just leave them alone. Keep walking and don't stare. A lot of the time people will be a bit banged up but be totally fine and able to manage on their own.
TLDR: Ask the wheelchair user if they're okay, then what they need, and then do exactly that, including leaving them alone. Thanks!
an important reply in the tags
[ID: A reply reading, "It's worth noting that unless someone is in immediate danger (on a road, near a chemical spill) there's basically no justification to move a unresponsive person on the ground, basic first aid will tell you that your objective is to stabilize and support until actual trained professionals arrive. Even outside of the context of pre-existing disability and being mishandled, if someone has a brand new neck injury you could seriously, permanently harm them by causing undue stress on the spine. You should always assume an unresponsive person on the ground has internal injuries you can't account for, and unless they're about to get smushed or asphyxiate on vomit leave them where you found them and call an ambulance."

The biggest bullshit with Adultism is basically that the people will defend it with: "Well, if we did not force X on kids, kids would not do it, because they hate X."
And then you actually look onto the research.
Kids do not generally hate learning or school. Quite the opposite. Children tend to enjoy learning and are naturally curious. It is exactly the fact that they are forced into school and into the rigid structure of it that often punishes curiosity but also is hostile towards the differences inherent in people, that kids hate it.
Kids do not naturally hate medical care. While medical care is scary at times, the fear usually comes from medical care scenarios being defined by adults overriding a child's agency, not explaining things to him, and otherwise being abusive, that makes children afraid of medical procedures. Additionally the way a lot of medical procedures go hand in hand with denying a child's reality ("Look, it is not that bad") tends to be traumatizing to children.
There have been studies done in this. If you explain a child - even a toddler - what you do and why, children will generally be a lot more okay with stuff like needles and simple procedures, and will even agree to necessary surgical interventions.
If you create a learning environment that allows more for self-directed learning, and involves less specific testing, most kids actually will enjoy learning.
The way kids hate school, and are afraid of doctors is the result of those interactions being associated with violence and coercion. The hatred is because of the coercion, rather than the hatred making the coercion necessary.
