This Pride Month, remember:

We're here, we're queer, we're really fucking tired so we're just gonna go straight to biting instead of feigning polite confusion if you're gonna be a bigot this time, just so you know.

Happy Pride!

[gothiccharmschool]

I support all of you biting bigots. Do that.

I know a lot of the folks who follow me here are white. I know that statistically, white people are more likely to listen to other white people as voices of authority when it comes to race — especially if they do not know where to begin when it comes to anti-racist practices.

So, I'm gonna be brutally honest with you other white folks — You have to care about Black men. You have to care about Brown men. You have to care about Native and Indigenous men. You have to care about Asian men and that means all Asian men, not just East Asian men.

If you are white it is imperative to EVERY kind of anti-racist belief and action that you vocally care about men who are not white.

Lift up, support, and platform the voices of non-white women who are discussing misogyny in their communities, BUT — this is also imperative to remember — those conversations are not for you to add your voice to. Especially if you don't engage with non-white people, communities, or culture in literally any other context. It's straight up just not your space and that's okay. Sit with that. Please.

thinking about her (the ghost barbie from the 2012 haunted beauty series)...

[batmansdeadparents]

Okay, but this entire collection slaps.

[gothiccharmschool]

The depths of my coveting for the Haunted Beauty governess Barbie are too great to explain with human language.

[gothiccharmschool]

I STILL covet that governess Barbie. I also want her outfit in my size.

About that white barred boxfish you just posted - what's that diamond pattern on its skin??? Veins?

this thing?

no, those aren't veins!

them's bones.

see, boxfish and most of their relatives are HEAVILY armored, packing a set of ossified plates under their skin that render them pretty much immobile! their tails, mouths, gills, eyes, and fins are really the only parts of them that still flex.

and isn't that horrifying to think about.
