anybody want this blog

[gamabuntaa-blog]

hey guys i really hate even talking about this and i don’t want to go into detail because i’m still inn shock and i don’t know how to even say it but basically, i’m a trans man and i was sexually assaulted by my repeat abuser and i just found out i’m pregnant from that attack. i’m only 19 and i live in one of the states affected by the abortion ban so the only way for me to overcome this is to move somewhere where i can get the medical care i need. this whole situation is making me so dysphoric i can’t even get out of bed. i haven’t stopped crying and i’m in so much pain and i’m so scared of this pregnancy going wrong or killing me. i’m so scared i’ll be attacked again. and i don’t know what my parents are going to do if they find out. i need to move away from my abuser so i can feel safe again, and where i can get a safe abortion and medical care. i don’t know how i’m going to do this but i just know i need to get somewhere safe. please help me if you can, i’m so scared and in pain right now. paypal.me/milocurtis venmo: @gamabuntaa

Not to be a downer but if i had to, at 12 years old, listen to my mother tell me all the different ways men would want to hurt my body, and how i might prevent that, then i really feel like teenage boys can handle a conversation with their parents that starts “let’s talk about consent”

[filmnoirsbian]

Everyone who comments “but women rape too!!!!!!” on this post and other posts like it please either learn how to have genuine sympathy for rape and abuse victims or go die

[filmnoirsbian]

To clarify, my mother started that conversation by telling me that she was date raped by a friend, a boy she had trusted, when she was 14 which then started a long series of sexual paranoia which formed a large part of the foundation of the emotional and physical abuse my sister and i suffered from her for my entire adolescence and into young adulthood. She told me about her rape in graphic detail, and convinced me that it would happen to me if i was ever alone with a boy. She told me about her mom’s sexual abuse at the hands of her father. That same year, my best friend admitted to me that her grandfather had been molesting her since before she could remember. My parents gave me pepper spray for my birthday because i walked to and from school alone. All the girls in my 7th grade health class had to have a “self defense day” because our computer teacher was caught fondling a 12 year old. We were taught that if a man tried to hurt us, we had to yell fire because otherwise no one would help. Every woman i know has a story like this. And yet every time we try to talk about it, demons will bend over backwards to point out “women can be rapists/abusers too!!!!” As if we don’t know. As if other women aren’t often their victims. As if cis men didn’t write the laws that allow abusers to escape justice time and time again. As if cis men aren’t overwhelmingly the ones who speak over abuse/rape victims. As if cis men aren’t overwhelmingly the abusers in question. No one is saying “all men rape”. I said “maybe parents should talk about consent with their sons instead of placing all of the emotional trauma of past and possible future sexual violence onto their daughters” and people want to say shit like “teaching boys that they’ll rape someone is a self fulfilling prophecy” and pretend they dont hate women lol. Like can yall die??

[filmnoirsbian]

And before yall try it, yes this post is for trans women too

Today I learned the unfortunate news that JK Rowling based Dobby, and NAMED Dobby after the lowest section of the caste system and I was just sitting there in class like

[horrorgay]

[beyonslayed]

[bloglikeanegyptian]

holy shit

[whatifsandspheres]

IDGI, this makes it sound like the caste system is not to be “disrespected?” The Hindu caste system being “appropriated” by some Eurocentric person to make a reference to a fictional character that’s literally a slave? Uhm… Caste system: generational bondage to a social class and social roles, IIRC…

[beyonslayed]

There’s something racist about a British white woman writing fantasy novels about predominantly pureblood (allegorical whiteness) wizards enforcing their magical superiority over other magical creatures one of which includes the house elves (allegorical brown slaves) - remember when the British colonized the Indian subcontinent - one of whose name was Dobby [see above explanation]… It’s beyond lazy and offensive the racist, orientalist, and anti semitic tropes Rowling has revealed underlie the HP world

JOHN JOLIE-PITT IS NOT A GIRL

STOP SAYING HE IS

STOP CALLING HIM BY HIS BIRTH NAME

END THE TRANSPHOBIA IN THE MEDIA

[prismatic-bell]

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

For those who may genuinely not know—since the media likes to make sure you don’t—John is the chosen name of the Jolie-Pitt child the media refers to as Shiloh. Angelina first noticed signs of transness in John when he was about three and angrily refused to wear pink or dresses, insisting they were “for girls” in language that separated himself from “girls” as a group. Angelina and Brad chose to do the appropriate thing and ask John what kind of clothes he would like to wear and what he would like to be called. He chose his own name, and chooses his own clothes and haircut.

As a result of this Brad and Angelina have faced severe media backlash, including accusations that they are not fit parents and media support of Brad’s mother, who forcibly dresses John in girls’ clothes when he visits her. The Jolie-Pitts are doing everything they possibly can to affirm to their son that his identity is valid (including Angelina recently restricting Grandma’s access to him on the basis that her son’s mental health is more important than his grandmother’s self-righteousness), and the media is doing everything it possibly can to say they’re wrong.

Support the Jolie-Pitt children and parents, and remember that his name is John, and he is a boy.

[stlgeekgirl]

I honestly didn’t know he had chosen a name. Bravo for Brad and Angelina.

[atlasinthewest]

His wiki still says his dead name and calls him an actress from what I can see

[maswartz]

At this point we can stop with the whole “it’s just a meme thing” These people obviously believe it means exactly what 4chan said it does.

[spiralstaircased]

thinking about how pewdeepie was considered lame and cringy until he became a nazi icon and now people pretend his content is good

[spiralstaircased]

I understand that the way I’ve worded this post has upset some people and I’d like to address that

I’m sorry, that you were offended by my post. I’m very sorry that you were upset by my post about peediepie being unfunny and popular with nazis. It’s really a shame that you were #triggered by my words.

But it’s just a joke so I don’t really see the issue. It’s just satire, it doesn’t actually hurt pewds to cal him a nazi! It’s a joke! Can’t you take a joke? Sorry that calling a guy who thinks antisemitism is funny a nazi is too politically incorrect for you! Everyone is entitled to their opinion, and mine is that pewdiepie sucks shit. Please respect that

That’s Louis Rossman, a repair technician and YouTuber, who went viral recently for railing against Apple. Apple purposely charges a lot for repairs and you either have to pay up or buy a new device. That’s because Apple withholds necessary tools and information from outside repair shops. And to think, we were just so close to change.

Reblog if you:

Have an iPhone and are in need of repairs

Have a friend with that problem

Hate Apple and are more than happy to spite them in some way

No one will know which is it

Don’t shop at Game Stop during April… They’re supporting Autism $peaks.

[snailchimera]

Oh. Joy. http://finance.yahoo.com/news/gamestop-partners-autism-speaks-autism-140428640.html

[phantoms-lair]

Okay, please don’t boycott GameStop. Corporate will not understand why you’re doing this and blame the employees for failing to drum up business.

Instead, go as you usually do, decline to make a donation, and do that little website survey almost everyone ignores. That survey is your voice to corporate. Tell them using that why you don’t approve of Autism Speaks, perhaps suggest better charities to follow. Let them know that if they continue to support this organization, they’ll lose business.

My husband committed suicide, help needed organized by Heather Miller

On January 25, 2019 I discovered my husband’s body in the basement of our home. Since then I’ve uncovered a mountain of lies & financial disaster. I haven’t worked since 2007. My husband had a very good job. He let me pursue a career as an artist. But things weren’t exactly idyllic. My marria...

this woman’s husband lied to her for years before committing suicide. she is in massive debt and has $400 in overdraft fees. i found this via twitter and hoping that people could share this and donate.

27 January: International Holocaust Remembrance Day

On this day we honour and remember the approximately 22 million innocent souls who fell victims to hate racism and prejudice crimes, nearly 7.5 million of which were slaughtered for being who they were.

6 million Jews (1.5 million of which were children)

1.5 million Romani

270 000 People with disabilities (be it physical or mental)

55 000 gay people (approximately)

14 million civilians, caught in the crossfire, famine and ugliness of war from all over Europe.

12 000 Jehova’s Witnesses (approximately) of which 2 500 - 5 000 killed.

This day is an important reminder of what once was and what should never be again.

May their rest be more peaceful than their life and may their memory be a blessing.

Never Forget.

yo can I drop some advice all you kids trying to get entry level jobs need to learn? I learned it the hard way and now I shall impart that to you.

when you see this shit, that goes “you need like 10 years experience and all this other qualifications nobody with all that would ever apply for a job like this with”, that means one thing: they are weeding out people who don’t believe they can achieve that level. They go “sigh, I can’t even compete, fuck it.” and don’t apply, saving the company the trouble.

What you, as a fresh new student, need to do- is apply anyway with a Luffy-like optimism that you will get that fucking job!! You don’t have a million years experience BUT YOU’LL TRY AND NEVER GIVE UP ETC. You write an opener letter with that in it, submit your shit, and get that goddamn job because they just found somebody who’s willing to give it a try anyway, who has the confidence and the ability to play with the big boys and they will train you to become a master because fresh meat is vital to the industry. 

tldr: APPLY ANYWAY, YOUNG GRASSHOPPER

[writingfail]

i really wish i’d read this three months ago

to those who are still looking for their first job: it wouldn’t hurt to try. the worst thing that can happen is that you get a “no”

[masswisteria]

So, really interesting statistic that just came up in hiring diversity training at work: women will typically only apply to a position if they feel they meet 100% of the requirements.  Men will typically apply if they feel they meet just 60%.

And guess what?  They still get hired, because a lot of job descriptions are total garbage.  These aren’t crafted masterpieces handed down from the divine goddess of Human Resources.  These are things that were thrown together at the last minute 3 years ago by some manager with too many more important things to do, and they’ve been used untouched ever since.

Think about this, and think about those numbers, ladies.  Think long and hard about this statistic next time you are looking at a job description and telling yourself that you can’t cut it.  You probably can, and applying is free.

(P.S.: I’m happy to give resume advice to people - especially new college grads in the tech industry.  That’s the field I know and do interviews in; I’m not sure if my advice would be as applicable elsewhere.)

[sketchbook-wizard]

So yeah. This. This is very important.

[madasthesea]

Pretty much the best advice I ever heard in terms of finding a job is to apply with all the in-born confidence of a mediocre white 22 year-old man with a rich father

[medusabraids]

[dizzymoods]

this is what happens every time jordan peele instigates the hot take industrial complex

[medusabraids]

the thing is jordan peele said this film wasn’t gonna focus on race like get out did so people are coming up with these theories out of nowhere and basing it on two minutes of footage

[alovesogentle]

A white on youtube said this movie was about black on black crime.

[xmagnet-o]

That looks nothing like a sambo character

[onlyblackgirl]

Or it’s just a scared black girl…because it’s a horror movie. Most the shit y’all made up about Get out wasn’t true either. He addressed y’all weird ass theories and you were wrong.

Hotep twitter loves a Jordan Peele trailer.

Also I love that y’all can’t comprehend dark skin people simply existing in films so much that you need to find a caricature to associate us with.

[xmagnet-o]

Yeah^^ this

[00jinx]

yup ^^^

[aaliyahbreaux]

he literally just put black folks in his movie cause he feels like black folks should be in his movies
