Like a month ago I messaged a craft group about accessibility for wheelchairs and the answer I got was âthereâs a lot of stairs but we have cute boys who can carry youâ. And itâsâŠnot good. As a wheelchair bound person I largely depend on people when I want to go out and do *anything* so Iâm 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 wasnât gay, wasnât a survivor scared of men, getting help as a disabled person is justâŠNot a pleasant thing to us! Imagine for a sec how youâd feel being carried up a flight of stairs. Youâre a grown person. Youâre being touched in an awkward way. Youâd rather do it yourself. Youâre So Uncomfortable. Itâs not where I look for the beginning of a romantic relationship. So likeâŠcould abled people stop doing this thing where they think helping us in a condescending and infantilizing way is cute? Cause Iâm real tired. Just get me a ramp or lift and Iâm cool. I donât need a dating service when Iâm just trying to go about my day
If youâre abled please reblog it cause likeâŠthe more ppl knows the better
IM SO TIRED OF RACIST PEOPLE. SO TIRED. Do you know HOW MANY cultures have non-binary genders?? BINARISM IS RACIST because it was IMPOSED by most EUROPEAN cultures. The Incaic cultures my country had natively were FULL of third-genders which were, of course non binary. And yet your america/euro-centrist white asses on this site tell me my gender does not exist? Lmao what about the literal thousands of people with native third gender identifications? People like me? Native people from the Americas, Africa, Asia, Oceania?? Bullshit. Anyone who says we invented non-binarism this century is a RACIST.
if youâre not native and/or not nb you SHOULD reblog this. let people know we are tired. Even non-native nbs. we are all tired.
Hi girls Iâm going to a tea ceremony today
I took a fucking sip babes
writing-prompt-s:
Valhalla does not discriminate against the kind of fight you lost. Did you lose the battle with cancer? Maybe you died in a fist fight. Even facing addiction. After taking a deep drink from his flagon, Odin slams his cup down and asks for the glorious tale of your demise!
Oh my god, this is beautiful.
A small child enters Valhalla. The battle they lost was âhiding from an alcoholic father.â Odin sees the flinch when he slams the cup and refrains from doing it again. He hears the childâs pain; no glorious battle this, but one of fear and wretched survival.
He invites the child to sit with him, offers the choicest mead and instructs his men to bring a sword and shield, a bow and arrow, of the very best materials and appropriate size. âHere,â he says, âyou will find no man who dares to harm you. But so you will know your own strength, and be happy all your days in Valhalla, I will teach you to use these weapons.â
The sad day comes when another child enters the hall. Odin does not slam his cup; he simply beams with pride as the first child approaches the newcomer, and holds out her bow and quiver, and says ânobody here will hurt you. Everyone will be so proud you did your best, and Iâll teach you to use these, so you always know how strong you are.â
ââââ
A young man enters the hall. He hesitates when Odin asks his story, but at long last, it ekes out: skinheads after the Pride parade. His partner got into a building and called for help. The police took a little longer than perhaps they really needed to, and two of those selfsame skinheads are in the hospital now with broken bones that need setting, but six against one is no fair match. The fear in his face is obvious: here, among men large enough to break him in two, will he face an eternity of torment for the man he left behind?
Odin rumbles with anger. Curses the low worms who brought this man to his table, and regales him with tales of Loki so to show him his own welcome. âA day will come, my friend, when you seek to be reunited, and so you shall,â Odin tells him. âTo request the aid of your comrades in battle is no shameful thing.â
âââ-
A woman in pink sits near the head of the table. Sheâs very nearly skin and bones, and has no hair. This will not last; health returns in Valhalla, and joy, and light, and merrymaking. But now her soul remembers the battle of her life, and it must heal.
Odin asks.
And asks again.
And the words pour out like poisoned water, things she couldnât tell her husband or children. The pain of chemotherapy. The agony of a mastectomy, the pain still deeper of âwe found a tumor in your lymph nodes. Iâm so sorry.â And at last, the tortured question: what is left of her?
Odin raises his flagon high. âWhat is left of you, fair warrior queen, is a spirit bright as fire; a will as strong as any forged iron; a life as great as any sea. Your battle was hard-fought, and lost in the glory only such furor can bring, and now the pain and fight are behind you.â
In the months to come, she becomes a scop of the hallâno demotion, but simple choice. She tells the stories of the great healers, Agnes and Tanya, who fought alongside her and thousands of others, who turn from no battle in the belief that one day, one day, the war may be won; the warriors Jessie and Mabel and Jeri and Monique, still battling on; the queens and soldiers and great women of yore.
The day comes when she calls a familiar name, and another small, scarred woman, eyes sunken and dark, limbs frail, curly black hair shaved close to her head, looks up and sees her across the hall. Odin descends from his throne, a tall and foaming goblet in his hands, and stuns the hall entire into silence as he kneels before the newcomer and holds up the goblet between her small dark hands and bids her to drink.
âAll-Father!â the feasting multitudes cry. âWhat brings great Odin, Spear-Shaker, Ancient One, Wand-Bearer, Teacher of Gods, to his knees for this lone waif?â
He waves them off with a hand.
âThis woman, LaTeesha, Destroyer of Cancer, from whom the great tumors fly in fear, has fought that greatest battle,â he says, his voice rolling across the hall. âShe has fought not another body, but her own; traded blows not with other limbs but with her own flesh; has allowed herself to be pierced with needles and scored with knives, taken poison into her very veins to defeat this enemy, and at long last it is time for her to put her weapons down. Do you think for a moment this fight is less glorious for being in silence, her deeds the less for having been aided by others who provided her weapons? She has a place in this great hall; indeed, the highest place.â
And the children perform feats of archery for the entertainment of all, and the women sing as the young man who still awaits his beloved plays a luteâwhich, after all, is not so different from the guitar he once used to break a manâs face in that great final fight.
Valhalla is a place of joy, of glory, of great feasting and merrymaking.
And it is a place for the soul and mind to heal.
IâM NOT CRYING YOUâRE CRYING
THIS IS GLORIOUS
Beautiful.
I LIVE for lgbt* + feminist ally, Odin.
I wish the world would understand..

WOMEN HAVE SEEN THIS COMING FOR YEARS
To any suicidal followers I may have: This is a sign to not kill yourself. You are loved and the world is special because you are in it. Keep holding on.
Reblog this when itâs on your dash. You will save someoneâs life.
PASS THIS ON.
The first transgender suicide hotline is now up and running in the U.S. You can reach Trans Lifeline at 877-565-8860.
Our vice president will be a man who believes we should defund HIV research and use the money to fund gay conversion therapy. Let that sink in.
not to mention this:
http://www.pinknews.co.uk/2016/10/07/trump-will-roll-back-obamas-lgbt-rights-protections-mike-pence-confirms/
and the fact that pence literally signed for a bill to put lgbt+ in jail for applying for a marriage license
!!ELECTION DAY REMINDERS!!
Election day is TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 8th
You can check your polling place AND time HERE.
I would HIGHLY recommend bringing two forms of ID [a gov. i.e. your license or photo ID AND your voter ID] with you to poll. Some states have voter ID laws, and in other states you need your ID if itâs your first time voting  at that particular location.
Avoid any trouble, donât wear any pins, tshirts, etc. for a particular candidates. Some areas consider it passive electioneering.
You CAN NOT vote via text, online, etc. Anyone advertising otherwise is lying.
The only person to ask you for your ID should be the individual working the polls sitting at a table inside the building in question. If anyone else asks you for your ID or gives you a hard time, they have no authority to do so and should be avoided.
You CAN NOT take a photo of your ballot/voting machine/etc. Take a cute photo with your âI Votedâ sticker after and call it a day.
Most importantly, stay safe, be smart and VOTE VOTE VOTE
Hhhhh fuck my life, millenials are turning out in low numbers for early votes. Iâve seen several of you that have already voted but please, if you havenât then go *before* the rush next Tuesday. You will lose less sanity and be less overwhelmed, if people try to bullshit you on ID shit you have more time to get what you need, the lines arenât so long you canât get your vote in, itâs all-around a much better experience.
If you donât like Hillary, hold your nose and pretend itâs Bernie. We need Bernie-level turnout here and even Bernie has said it. Vote Hillary so Bernie has a shot at enacting some serious reform in the Senate. He can do amazing things in the Senate if heâs backed by other Senators and a President that leans liberal.
*gets down on my knees and prays to any gods that can hear me*
IF YOU ARE IN LINE BEFORE THE POLLS CLOSE, YOU ARE ALLOWED TO VOTE
If anyone tells you the line is full, or that the time is up and everyone in line needs to go home, DO NOT LEAVE. Call the Election Protection Coalition at 1-866-OUR-VOTE.
The group caused a social media firestorm by wearing shirts that said they "If you're gay, don't approach me, I'll kill you" in public.
The members of ATG donât have any qualms about people knowing they âhate gays.â
Sporting shirts that say âIf youâre gay, donât approach me, Iâll kill youâ in public and dropping quotes like âI hate gays for realâ in interviews with media, this Quebec-based gamer clan really want you to know they donât like gay people.
On Halloween, one of their members, Julien Clément, was spotted wearing the anti-gay shirt at a haunted farm event in Ottawa. A woman, sitting behind him, shocked by the blatant and violent homophobia on his T-shirt took a photo and threw it up on Facebook. The post quickly went viral.
Dr. Kristopher Wells, the faculty director of the Institute for Sexual Minority Studies at the University of Alberta, called it âvery concerningâ to know that this isnât just a lone wolf situation.
âThe shirt goes beyond being offensive,â Wells told VICE. âI think the Ottawa police and the RCMP domestic terrorism group should be investigating this kind of shirt.
"With this kind of rhetoric, it puts citizens on edge wondering when or if this kind of language turn into actual violence. What would actually happen if a gay person went up to these people and did want to, you know, shake their hand?â
Wells said that the shirt in itself is violent and some critics, including lawyers, have said they believe it violates Section 319 of the Canadian Criminal Code which governs hate speech.
âThese are not Canadian values,â said Wells. âThese kinds of actions put terror and fear into an entire group of people. What would happen if those t-shirts said âI want to kill black people?â What about Jewish people or Muslim people?â
