Check out @Blumberberry’s Tweet: “This has got to be the biggest scam and lie @FLBlue has pulled. Denying my boyfriend’s surgery with virtually no time to appeal after he has been waitlisted for two years. No one is helping us. #transgender #LGBTQ #FTM #healthinsurancescam https://t.co/J9YOFmaHM4”

Old gays literally mean so much to me, like knowing that other gay people “made it” and that it’s possible to live a long gay life is so important.

please be aware of all the ways autistic people are actively dehumanized, including

-acting like it would be better off for everyone if we didn’t exist

-being trained to obey, and punished for saying no

-using ‘worked with children with autism’ in a similar way to ‘worked with dogs’

-assuming we don’t have meaningful friendships that aren’t born of a neurotypical pitying us

-assuming we don’t have romantic relationships

-assuming we don’t have sex drives

-debating if it is ethical to allow autistic kids to be born

-denying the existence of autistic adults

-debating whether it is better to have an autistic child, or risk your child dying of a life-threatening disease

-silencing our voices in conversations about us

-treating us like a science experiment

-comparing autistic people to animals

-using terms like ‘put out of their misery’ when describing our murders

-justifying our abuse and torture

-etc, etc

being mentally ill doesn’t excuse ur ableism towards physically disabled people

[tuskactonesdf]

to expand more: tumblr tends to be more catered to able bodied mentally ill people. believe it or not, disabled mentally ill people exist (like me!)! when we ask you not to describe your mental illness as cr*ppling, stop trying to argue and LISTEN.

STOP taking over our posts written by and for us, bc i can’t tell you how many times abled people reblog a post blatantly written for physically disabled people bc it fits their mental illness. it’s not the same

STOP saying society treats physically disabled people better than mentally ill people, bc guess what! they don’t!

and realize, bc you are able bodied, you are inherently ableist to physically disabled people whether you want to admit it or not

Hey just a reminder you can’t just “opt out” of straight privilege by referring to your orientation as heteroromantic rather than heterosexual. Het is het. If ur het ur straight and u have straight privilege. You can’t just be het and “”””~choose not to identify as straight~”””

for @slimeandspice and anyone else who’s confused, build a bear ended their partnership with autism $peaks over two years ago and listened to our complaints.

An adult can literally tell us she’s been preying on children and is going to continue to prey on children, do it a publicly year and a half later, and people will still be like ‘wow it was a one time thing! It could have happened to anyone! This is an innocent interaction’

Girl bye

for me being hiv+ has resulted in friendships with a lot of older lgbt folks. the ones who survived the epidemic but lost partners, family, friends. the ones who experienced abusive shock and aversive therapy. the ones who have folders upon folders of funeral pamphlets and obituaries, often where the gender and/or sexuality of the deceased was rewritten and buried in words written by their unsupportive family. the ones who can name people memorialized on the aids quilt. 

i’ve learned a lot from them about what it means to be lgbt from them and i wanted to share an experience with the q slur. 

my school’s gay-straight alliance started meetings with joking about the “queer agenda”. i had “queer and proud” in my then tumblr bio. the word felt radical and i would have shouted it from the rooftops, although i wasn’t necessarily certain of its meaning.

but when i reclaimed a slur, not only applying it to myself but also for my friends, they recoiled. a few of them did their best to reassure me but i could tell that referring to them as “queer” had hurt, that in that moment i had replicated the exact language of slur-hurling americans who told them they deserved to die - on the senate floor and in the streets. they survived a state-sponsored plague, not to mention complicated intersections of transmisogyny and racism within lgbt communities meant to assist them, often failing to do so.

i’m very small, soft-spoken, and at the time only 17 years old. but when i applied that word to the group of them in a coffee shop parking lot they looked scared. 

it is my word to reclaim as a nonbinary lesbian if i choose to but i urge you to think long and hard before making generalizations about “the queer community”, before encouraging cis hets to use it as if it’s their word, as if it’s their history, as if it’s their pain to understand and shoulder. it can obviously be joyously or tentatively reclaimed by members of the lgbt community, at each individual’s discretion, but first and foremost, at face value, queer is a slur.

the lesbian escape from arranged marriage/abusive home was a success! (mash’allah)

HOWEVER, now i need to replace my passport, birth certificate, social,  court docs, insurance, etc etc that i was unable to salvage.

if y’all could donate so i can start rebuilding, i would really appreciate it

i know there are a lot more urgent things to donate to, however if my able followers could all donate 50 cents (or less even) that’d rllyy truly help us. like no amount is too small it’s all really useful.
