Baby fever is real, you guys 😍

Part of me so desperately wants to be a mom, but I also know that I would be a terrible mom and would hate looking after a kid 24/7 for the rest of my life

“Go into the arts. I’m not kidding. The arts are not a way to make a living. They are a very human way of making life more bearable. Practicing an art, no matter how well or badly, is a way to make your soul grow, for heaven’s sake. Sing in the shower. Dance to the radio. Tell stories. Write a poem to a friend, even a lousy poem. Do it as well as you possibly can. You will get an enormous reward. You will have created something.”

— Kurt Vonnegut (via lazypacific)

He doesn't show her face. He tries not to laugh at a basic question so she's not embarrassed. Films his reaction, and is so kind. This is SUCH a good video.

Not really sure what to say for this one.  We all know what’s happening in America right now and it’s not even a “put your ear to the ground to hear what’s coming” type of situation, there have been executive orders that specifically target transgender people.

The writing isn’t on the wall, it’s on government documents.

The phone call described in this strip happened a few months ago, before I came out publicly.  As you can imagine, it only made me more fearful of coming out.  If this person who I love and trust so much that they were one of the first folks I came out to over five years ago didn’t understand why what’s happening is so terrifying, why this bigotry needs to be completely shut down immediately, how could the bigots themselves understand?

Part of my position was that there were television ads being run showing transgender folks as these disgusting people, something less than human that are deserving of ridicule and are a drain on the country’s resources and a danger to children.

According to them, my terror of seeing me be advertised as that way was just me being alarmist, that the people that I’m afraid of aren’t going to do anything and that there shouldn’t be any fear of danger.

We’re two weeks in, and already there’s legal action being taken to strip me and people like me of not just their rights, but their humanity.

It’s hard.  On one hand, I do understand their position that I should try to be a source of education, to try to bridge the gap to these people.  I agree not in the sense that it should be my responsibility, but in that it feels like the only practical thing I can do.

On the other hand, what can I possibly do in the face of so much hatred?

I have family members who’ve voted for this.  People who might say they have love in their hearts but voted to label certain people as sub-human. 

I don’t know how they can reconcile that.

I don’t know how I can reconcile with them.  I’m not just disappointed, I’m genuinely frightened.  I don’t want to sound like the world is crashing down around us, but in a way it really is.  Many of the folks who’ve voted this way don’t even realize what they were doing, the rest of them knew and didn’t care.

I don’t know which is worse.

As an adult you should act maturely when possible, however, you should be allowed one immature thing every now and then as a treat. You can indulge yourself a bit just for the thrill of doing something stupid

the thing about bullets is that you can touch them and it's fine, but if they're shot by a gun they get so fast they can kill you. it's the speed that does the killing. so much of martial conflict is just using speed to harm one another

[lizholmes]

what they dont tell you is that this is true about a lot of stuff. an orchestra standing still is a mild inconvenience at worst. but an orchestra scuttling towards you? thats violins, baby

[cipheramnesia]

Not violins alone, it's also sax. Sax and violins.

[skulandcrossbones]

it's so wild to me that you absolutely cannot force a hyperfixation to happen. like you'll watch the most perfectly tailor-made-for-you content that everyone says you'll love and feel absolutely nothing, and then the thing you watch on a whim to fill time will reach through the screen and put its damn fingers in your brain and start rearranging the neurons right in front of you and every single time you're like THIS??? THIS??????? and this happens like every 6-12 months forever

other things that have been censored on the cdc website by the trump administration are included but not limited to:

guidelines for prep

guide to taking patient sexual history

sti treatment guidelines

the CDC Youth Risk Behavior Survey Data Summary & Trends Report

a health education analysis tool

reports on queer youth

reports on substance abuse

a 2025 report on health equity for intersex people

intimate partner violence prevention resources

sexual violence violence prevention resources

a cdc national partner violence survey

again, all of those things are being archived here. you can read them and share them. in fact we should talk about them even more than we wouldve before- make this counterproductive for them

The federal grants freeze today was an attempt to break the US Constitution. It aimed to defund programs passed by LAW because they don’t align with maga “ideology.” He’s already got the Supreme Court in his pocket and now Congress is letting him wrestle lawmaking power from them…

This is a really really loud and obnoxious canary in the coal mine yall. Listen to it!!!

This post goes around Tumblr every year, and it’s always true. There’s never been an uneventful or boring January.

headcanon that annabeth once spilled sauce on her shirt during lunch. and proceeded to remove said article of clothing before wordlessly stripping percy of the shirt off his back and wore it for the duration of the meal. and from that point foreward. anytime annabeth needs a shirt. she'll look at percy. and he'll sigh in defeat.

I am fucking sick of cishet people telling me that queer people have it great in the US.

Trans people are no longer allowed to leave the country.

Being queer in public is being labeled as a sexual offense against children + the right is pushing for the death penalty regarding child sex offenders.

They literally want to kill us. Full stop. No, Dad, America is not better than "those African and Middle Eastern countries where you'd be stoned to death", the only difference is that we'll be doing our executions of gay and trans people with more bureaucracy and less rocks.

It’s uncanny how similar Trump is acting like Hitler. People are now doing the Nazi salute. They’re drawing the symbol. The KKK was seen in Kentucky asking people to join them. ICE has been ripping families apart. Companies have pulled back Diversity Initiatives. We’re no longer part of WHO and there won’t be any communication from the CDC at least until February 1st. We’re being censored and the news can’t be trusted. Thousands of Americans didn’t know there were protests against Trump yesterday outside the U.S. Quotes from The Handmaid’s Tale and Anne Frank have been compared to what’s going on right now.

According to The Lemkin Institute for Genocide Studies and Prevention the U.S. has officially been given a red flag alert for Genocide.

I’m exhausted but I will never stop being angry.

The most popular browsers in different countries in 2012 and 2022.

do your part - download Mozilla Firefox today!

[tagfer]

Nope! When Chrome first came to popularity, people switched over to it cause it was “faster” (turns out, it just eats through your device’s CPU) but since then Firefox has upped its game in a major way. Chrome just doesn’t measure up anymore. Plus, nowadays Chrome is just a data harvester designed to show hyper targeted ads - so even if Firefox ain’t for you, it’s still worth ditching Google for a different browser.

[valtrys]

Legit though I switched to Firefox and it’s so so so much better

[criticalbread]

i’m gonna keep reblogging this ad infinitum so yall might as well convert now

[butterfly-sapphic]

Also firefox has a working adblock
