When even the mainstream media sees that @staff is okay with nazis while getting offended at the female nipple.
“Tumblr’s decision was a reminder of the way that social media companies have, at times, more effectively policed nudity than more destructive content like misinformation and racial hatred.”
— Tumblr bans pornography and most nudity, sending users searching for an alternative

Tumblr: Stop the December 17th Tumblr NSFW Ban
Hey, sign this petition to get tumblr staff to rethink and hopefully repeal the NSFW ban scheduled for December 17th.

It’s that time of year to say no to the Salvation Army.
Never forget they let a Trans woman die instead of helping her.
Never forget they have tossed entire families on the street for having an LGBT child.
Never forget they tell non Christian families that unless they convert they will not help them.
Never forget that the Salvation Army is bigoted and hateful, many of the bell ringers routinely heckle and harass LGBT couples.
Annual reblog.
What they say: “I just feel like LGBTQ stuff shouldn’t be shoved down our throats. Stop forcing it in every show and movie.”
What they mean: “No one’s actually forcing me to watch anything. I just don’t expect gay people in shows and movies unless it’s explicitly labeled “LGBTQ”. When gay people appear in something I’m watching outside of that description, it feels like I was tricked into seeing people that I (subconsciously or blatantly) ignore the existence of in real life, and the growing expectation to treat them as equals is actually what I feel is being forced down my throat.“
Gender & the Pop Culture Witch
Since I have returned to London I have found myself much more exposed to the internet, advertising, and media than I have been over my spring and summer researches in the mountains of Portugal.
Now that I am back in London I see all of the advertising and hear the buzz of the concept of the “witch” as it froths at the top of popular culture like a decadent revival. The “witch” is everywhere, an icon for this age, packaged and being sold on the high street in volumes to match an American mall during October.
I have to admit though that I am uncomfortable with much of what I see. Particularly in the tropes of the witch being dragged out from some half understood post wicca new aged idiocy. The witch as an attractive young woman, and near exclusively as a female, with tons of fantasy powers that drive a narrative of consumerism and consumption.
The costume of the witch in the media seems to have settled into a tight fitting black dress and a pointy hat. Wands small enough to fit up your sleeve. Black cat that talks at the ready. Its such utter nonsense even at the best of times but the way the image of the witch is being co-opted as a purely feminine symbol is just historically inaccurate.
Men, and a swath of non binary gendered people, have long stood on the path of witchcraft beside women. Witchcraft is no more exclusively feminine than orgasms are, and the continued depiction of the witch as only young women (usually with a token old women who cleans up the mess) is disrespectful to practitioners of the craft that are not cis female.
This misrepresentation of the witch as exclusively female finds its roots in the church and its persecution of minorities and folk practitioners. By casting witchcraft as a feminine practice it allowed the ecclesiastical authorities to “other” feminine practices as an excuse for patriarchal control. Although historically just as many men were accused and convicted of witchcraft as women.
But beyond this misrepresentation I sense something else bubbling under the surface of our ever increasingly polarized world. Something that harkens to an ancient fear, a titillation, that comes with associating with the supernatural. Throughout history mankind returns again and again to the realm of magic in order to seek power when they find themselves powerless. Our era is a time of struggle, and a rise in conservative forces that would fear the power of the witch enough to persecute us is close at hand.
But I am an old man, and the long months of quiet in the mountains have left me overwhelmed in the city once again. Perhaps it is merely fashionable, and the fad of the modern witch will fade and leave us to once again practice in quiet? Either way we must as craft practitioners of all backgrounds seek to represent the full spectrum of gender in our ideas and considerations of the witch. Anything less is a disrespecting of the craft.
The thing about being LGBT+ is, at some point in your childhood, no matter how accepting your parents are, at some point, you have to question: “do they love me unconditionally?” And then you have to plan for the possibility hat the answer is no. And that fucks you up. Straight cis people never have to question that.
shout out to the boys who:
suffer from mental health issues
are survivors of abusive situations
like boys
like girls
are feminine
are non binary
get bullied
have/had an eating disorder
struggle/struggled with self harm
you’re all beautiful and handsome and worthy of love ❤️

You are either 100% anti-fascist or you’re a fascist. No more pretending there is some middle ground. There are only two sides in this fight.
There is no time for both-side-ism here. The debate isn’t even over, it never should have happened in the first place. The nazis killing Jews are from the same cloth that Sam Harris called “peaceful Nazis” when they confronted antifascists last year.
The people emboldened to build and send bombs to politicians, to kill POC in the open, are the same people who centrists said deserved a seat at the table and had a right to a platform. The same centrists who warned that the left was the problem, and allowed Nazis or organize.
I have not forgotten a single centrist who defended Nazis, fascists, added “anti-antifa” to their profiles, or gave platforms to these peddlers of death on their YouTube shows or podcasts. You chose your side, you decided to align with murders in order to score anti-left points
