never too early to start reblogging this
^^^ well, Halloween candy was on shelves like 7/31 so this is right on time.
The middle right girl in the Asian one looks ready to throw hands I’m in love
I’m reblogging this every time I see it.
AND COUNTING.
why the bleeding hell would you choose “Miles shoplifts art supplies” when “Miles rolls up to the checkout counter fully suited-up like ‘hi im Spiderman and I’d like to buy these 180 markers please here’s my allowance- I mean my paycheck from my adult grownup job’” is infinitely cuter and funnier and also not racist
A trans teen was shot and killed in Baltimore over Labor Day weekend. While the police have not released the name of the victim, some on social media have called her Bailey Reeves.
According to WMAR 2 News, the teen’s body was found by a 16-year-old who said they heard three gunshots and a girl screaming “My friend! Someone help my friend! Call 911!” The 16-year-old then went outside and found the victim in a pool of blood in the middle of Parkwood Avenue. After police were called, the victim was transported to a hospital where she died.
Police have not released any details about the victim. Homicide detectives are asking anyone with information to contact them at 410-396-2100 or Metro Crime Stoppers at 1-866-7lockup.
The post also says that the 17 year old victim was shot in the torso. Police told the local CBS station that it was the fifth shooting of the night in Baltimore, and it was one of two killings in the city that day. It also comes as the latest in a string of death at the hands of gun violence against trans women in America.
This Baltimore death means that at least 17 trans people have been killed this year. Of that number, the vast majority are Black trans women. Of those, at least 11 of those have died as a result of gun violence. In honor of the life of Tracy Single, the 16th trans person to be murdered this year, the city of Houston lit City Hall and a few bridges with the colors of the trans flag in August.
KIDNEY DONOR NEEDED URGENTLY
My friend Ranjana is suffering daily, dealing with dialysis. For the time I’ve known her she’s been struggling and waiting to find a donor. Ranjana has a warm and kind heart and was always a kind face when I was dealing with my terrible job last year, from this she stuck in my mind, we became friends on Facebook.
You can go to this link to read her story. Please please spread this so that people can see if they are in a place to help her. Her blood type is O+ but there is also a chance that if you donate your kidney to someone else with a compatible blood type and they can swap their kidney to her.

PLEASE BOOST THIS. RANJANA IS SERIOUSLY ILL.

In 2018, advocates tracked at least 26 deaths of transgender people in the U.S. due to fatal violence, the majority of whom were Black transgender women. These victims were killed by acquaintances, partners and strangers, some of whom have been arrested and charged, while others have yet to be identified. Some of these cases involve clear anti-transgender bias. In others, the victim’s transgender status may have put them at risk in other ways, such as forcing them into unemployment, poverty, homelessness and/or survival sex work.
While the details of these cases differ, it is clear that fatal violence disproportionately affects transgender women of color, and that the intersections of racism, sexism, homophobia, biphobia and transphobia conspire to deprive them of employment, housing, healthcare and other necessities, barriers that make them vulnerable. HRC Foundation’s “Dismantling a Culture of Violence” report demonstrates how anti-transgender stigma, denial of opportunity and increased risk factors compound to create a culture of violence – and provides clear ways that each of us can directly make an impact to make our society a safer place for transgender people.
As is too often the case in the reporting of anti-transgender violence, many of these victims are misgendered in local police statements and media reports, which can delay our awareness of deadly incidents. In the pursuit of greater accuracy and respect for transgender and gender expansive people in both life and death, HRC offers guidelines for journalists and others who report on transgender people.
Sadly, 2019 has already seen at least eight transgender people fatally shot or killed by other violent means. As HRC continues to work toward justice and equality for transgender people, we mourn those we have lost:
On June 7th, Layleen Cubilette Polanco Xtravaganza, a Black Latinx trans woman was found dead in her cell on rikers island, the women’s division. No details on her death have been released. I’m so disturbed. I feel like I’m in a virtual reality. I knew Layleen growing up. I Remember desiring to be beautiful like her. She was cool, and funny too, like all of us she had dreams of escaping poverty and the misery of social ostricisation. She is the 10th trans woman to die this year. No one knows if it was a murder, or how she died but this is the closest black trans death has ever gotten to me and this is extremely alarming and traumatic. As you all know the trans community is extremely small, we feel every loss and we often all know someone who knew somebody murdered. By initiation of the trump administration, the supreme Court is debating RIGHT NOW on whether trans people deserve to be a federally protected demographic, to equal access legal aid, employment, shelter, healthcare, and employment they are hearing our cases on why we deserve human rights. Our current administration is sending a legislative message that trans peoples lives don’t matter and that is encouraging people to take our lives, it’s making our deaths go uninvestigated. (source)
Last Saturday a young transgender woman’s body was found in a lake in Dallas, Texas. The police identified her as 26-year-old Chynal Lindsey shortly afterwards.It was later confirmed that Ms Lindsey had been killed - city police chief U Reneé Hall told reporters two days later that her body had exhibited “obvious signs of homicidal violence”.Such killings are not uncommon. Ms Lindsey was the second black trans woman in Dallas to be killed within the last three weeks, and the third over the past year.Asked whether it was possible a serial killer was targeting these women, Ms Reneé Hall said that “right now, we don’t have the evidence to substantiate that”, but urged members of the trans community to “stay vigilant”. Because of the scale of the problem, she added, the department has asked the FBI for assistance.Whether or not a serial killer is behind the attacks, Chynal’s death has highlighted an insidious truth - that trans women of colour in the US are disproportionately at risk of being killed.

On 18 May, 22-year-old trans woman Muhlaysia Booker was found dead on a street near a golf course in Dallas, having been fatally shot. Her death came a month after a group of men attacked her, filmed it, and posted the footage on social media. (source)
Claire Legato, 21, a Black transgender woman, was fatally shot in Cleveland on April 15. Local media reports that Legato was shot in the head after an argument broke out between her mother and the suspect. She was taken to a nearby hospital and died from her injuries on May 14. Friends and family took to social media to mourn Legato’s death, remembering her as someone who was “full of life.” (source)
Dana Martin, an Alabama transgender woman, was found dead on Jan. 6 near Montgomery. The 31-year-old Hope Hull resident is the first known transgender person to be killed so far this year. (source)
Michelle ‘Tamika’ Washington, 40, a Black transgender woman, was fatally shot in Philadelphia on May 19. Police responded to reports of shots fired in North Philadelphia’s Franklinville neighborhood, according to the Philadelphia Gay News. Washington, who was also known by the name Tameka, was found with several gunshot wounds and transported to Temple University Hospital, where she was pronounced dead. She is remembered by friends and loved ones as a beloved sister and “gay mother.” (source)
Paris Cameron, 20, a Black transgender woman, was among three people killed in a horrific anti-LGBTQ shooting in a home in Detroit on May 25, according to local reports. Alunte Davis, 21, and Timothy Blancher, 20, two gay men, were found dead at the scene and Cameron was taken to the hospital, where she died from her injuries. Two other victims were also shot but survived. “This case illustrates the mortal danger faced by members of Detroit’s LGBTQ community, including transgender women of color,“ Fair Michigan President Alanna Maguire said.

Chanel Scurlock, 23, a Black transgender woman, was found fatally shot in Lumberton, North Carolina, on June 6. Few details are yet public about the crime, but police told a local news outlet they have “great leads” in their investigation. “RIP baby,” wrote a friend on Facebook. “You [lived] your life as you wanted. I’m proud of you for being unapologetically correct about your feelings and expectations of YOU.” (source)
Two years?! I’m in!
why not
I’ll try it
Double your nana, double your yum

No fucking joke, I was offered 4 days of film-set marshalling and I told him I was unavailable for one of the days but I could cancel. And he told me he’d potentially found someone else.
I reblogged this.
And not 20 mins later, he came back to me and said if I really want it, let him know now. So fuck. Wow.
yeah sure poor people who are also bad with money exist but it’s still not an excuse to justify not paying your employees a livable wage.
like mr. billionaire with the 8th yacht this week is going to preach to poor people buying a new couch they probably didn’t need but wanted because their kids fucked up the other one.
fuck off.
poor person: i got new clothes for work because i’m expected to look good for work and now i’m kinda worried about if i’ll be able to pay some bills this month. oof.
rich person with an eight-thousand-dollar suit who drives a tesla: you should spend your money less frivolously.
poor person: i took my kid out to a restaurant for their birthday and now i’m having trouble paying for gas.
rich person who underpays said poor person: you know you can save hundreds of dollars just by not buying all your coffee at cafes.
poor person: i genuinely don’t know what planet you live on but i do not buy coffee at a cafe.
rich person: why does no one appreciate my great financial advice?
poor person: finally got a food card because i’ve been struggling to afford food
rich person who knows full well all jobs require you have a phone: just sell your phone. you know … something that will get you money once and then you’ll never be able to replace it… effectively losing yourself money.
poor person: hey, quick question, but do you ever listen to yourself talk? like do you ever really think about what you’re saying? just wondering.
i also just wanna say … poor people will always have more reason to spend their money on things that are socially considered frivolous compared to the wealthy.
rich people don’t need a 7th yacht to make themselves happy but like … a poor person struggling under crushing poverty buying something that makes them happy is always a more justifiable expense.
why are we pretending rich people need 90% of the shit they waste their money on and instead focusing in on poor people in rare instances of buying expensive things for themselves.
This is so fucking sad, like seriously

The award for best costume design went to Ruth Carter and in her own words, it was "a long time coming."
The award for best costume design went to Ruth Carter and in her own words, it was “a long time coming.”
Carter won for “Black Panther” and became the first African American to take home the statue.
She thanked Spike Lee for giving her her start and said she hoped she made him proud.
She also paid homage to the film that made her a trailblazer.
“Marvel may have created the first black superhero, but through costume design, we turned him into an African king,” Carter said.
She also showed love to her mother.
“This is for my 97-year-old mother watching in Massachusetts,” Carter said. “Mom, thank you for teaching me about people and telling their stories. You are the original super hero. ”
