I use He/It pronouns, and I am trans, a minor, plural, and neurodivergent
I mostly reblog posts and only occasionally post art (which I’m trying to do more of) and it’s very unlikely that I will actually interact with people here that aren’t irl friends of mine.
Anyways, that’s about it, I’m a werewolf, therian, furry, and a bunch of things that I don’t care enough to include so stick around if you’d like, don’t if you don’t, and always have a lovely day.

imagine you're a child, you learn your queer and your parents are extremely bigoted. you have some friends on Roblox who are very kind, they're in their early 20s and they sympathize as they went through the same things as a kid. they offer to use your correct name and pronouns, maybe some even offer to buy you a binder or help you find hrt or support groups local to you
roblox rolls out their age group system, and you can no longer talk to any adults on the platform. you can only talk to people in person, i.e. your parents, who are horrid. now you're back at square one, being helplessly abused. to make it worse, you're homeschooled, as I was. you can't reach out to anyone at school for support either.
or maybe you're not homeschooled, and you ask your pronouns to be used at school. it goes well for a while, and you feel some relief.
then your state passes a bill that requires forced outing. your teachers report to your parents that you've been trying out a different name and pronouns.
they pull you from school, send you to boarding school or conversion therapy, and force you to attend private schools in the future that match their values.
you are entirely under their control. you could've made connections with other adults, ones willing to help you out. to treat you like a human, give you access to life saving care. and it's stripped away, you're alone, and everything feels hopeless.
this is the reality for many children. this is almost exactly what I went through as a child. it is not a mere hypothetical, it happens regularly. please stop falling for this moral grandstanding, it's about control- it's always been about control.
on valentines day do NOT propose to anyone do NOT ask anyone out do NOT go on a date do NOT have sex do NOT marry anyone. go to coolmathgames dot com and start playing papa's freezeria
y'all will circlejerk yourself to the mysticisms of faeries and elves in european countries for centuries and take it as fact but the second native americans ask you to respect our spirituality and culture suddenly you're all aetheists
Hey, fat people deserve to have fun and get their needs met even if they’re the least healthy mf you know. Fat people deserve proper medical care, and carbs, and to wear shorts and so many more things! EVEN IF THEY ARE UNWELL AND ESPECIALLY IF THAT UNWELLNESS IS DUE TO THEIR WEIGHT!!! Fat people deserve the world and more. Not just the healthy fats or attractive fats or small fats or fats that are fat because of medication or disability.
Friendly reminder that Haiti is still being torn apart by gang violence and hundreds of families have been displaced due to gangs taking over. We’re still in the “transitional” stage of our government but things are barely moving.

anyone else feel like maybe this trend of calling people "performative male" for having feelings expressing their emotions and caring about anything perceived feminine is maybe just more of the trend of the patriarchy punishing men for not being masculine enough???
Yeah, I just watched the yt video this morning and he made this exact point in the video. He did say that men shouldn't put on a persona of "seeing a woman as a human being to get sex with women" but that if men are trying to express a softer form of masculinity and they're reading feminists literature that bullying them for being performative may discourage them form pursuing an actual understanding of feminist literature.
He also checked himself by asking his wife her opinion on the subject, so that was kind of dope. Ultimately he's a comedian not a feminist academic or a sociologist, but I've been following him for a few years I think he, like this post, made some valid points about expectations of masculinity and called it a "patriarchy psyop" which made me laugh.
I think we should be enganging with men when they show interest in feminism even if it comes off clunky at first because unlearning bias comes with practice like any other.
Anyway, daily reminder from a culturally isolated Romani person.
Gypsy does not mean wanderer.
It literally means ‘people from egypt’ or similar, as europeans believed Romani people were from Egypt. It has become known similar to nomad due to how our ancestors have been forced to be nomadic due to racism and ostracization, but it is a SLUR.
Romani people are STILL being forcibly sterilized.
Romani people are STILL being forced into ghettos.
Romani people are still facing violence and danger in countless European countries- and recently, I’ve seen the beginnings of the extremes in the United States.
Have a little fucking respect and DON’T USE A SLUR THAT’S BEEN USED FOR CENTURIES AGAINST US.
And for the love of whatever’s up there, ESPECIALLY do not use it to describe your witchcraft. It is playing on the ‘magic gypsy’ trope, and is EXTREMELY insulting.
why are people so eager to use fake racial slurs. had a friend using "clanker" so i explained to them how that meme reflects real racist attitudes towards Black and Hispanic people and how the word clanker is LITERALLY supposed to be a reflection of the n-word and some other friends were like joining and explaining too and this person literally went on like a 3 page long rant about how they "hate robots just sooo much" and "find it hard to dehumanize reall peopleee" and "im so good to real people dont you understand even when im having a bad day ))):" and how they "NEED a word to express my frustrations, other economists are so nice about robots why cant i have this" and i literally was SPEECHLESS. this friend is super privileged, white, going to a prestigious university and everything. like if you replaced robots with Black people it'd be so clear to everyone how racist this whole thing is but they REFUSE TO LISTEN. its actually wild.
Yeah you can essentially hear how their grandparents reacted when told they acceptably couldn't call us "n****rs", "negroes", "w*tbacks" and "sp*cs" anymore. I wouldn't be that person's friend anymore, personally.
Dear friends, donors, supporters, and well-wishers,
We are a group of people from Sudan who fled our homeland due to conflict. Initially, we were over 500, but after a long and dangerous journey, only 120 of us made it to South Sudan. Sadly, not everyone survived, and it breaks our hearts to see our numbers continue to decline. Now, we are 110 people, desperately trying to reach Uganda for safety.
We are urgently seeking your help to make this journey. We have been stranded here for a long time, facing starvation and a lack of medical care. Many of our mothers, fathers, sisters, and brothers have already passed away. With no one else to turn to, we are reaching out to you for support.
To reach Uganda, each person needs $500, which will cover:
• $300 for transport
• $70 for food during the journey
• $120 for basic survival needs after arriving in Uganda
Since we are far from South Sudan’s capital, Juba, our journey will take four days. First, we must reach Juba, then travel for two days to Uganda. Once there, we will not stay in the capital, Kampala, but move directly to other areas for safety.
With 110 people, we need $55,000 to complete this journey. We also have 17 dogs and 8 cats, and while we would never want to leave them behind, we will do our best to bring them with us.
We could have moved earlier, but our GoFundMe has received only small donations, which have helped with medical care but not enough to escape.
THIS IS WHY WE NEED YOUR SUPPORT NOW—TO SURVIVE.
• A $500 donation can save the life of one person in our community.
• A $1,000 donation can help two people or even more—perhaps a child and a grandmother.
• Any amount will contribute to someone’s survival, as donations add up to help each person make it.
We understand that $55,000 may seem like a large amount, but it is not just for us—it is to save an entire community.
WHAT HAPPENS IF WE DON’T REACH $55,000?
As a community, we have made a heartbreaking decision: If we don’t raise the full amount, we will still attempt to move forward. However, we will have to vote on who gets to leave—prioritizing children, grandmothers, and people with disabilities. The rest will have to stay behind, hoping for another chance. It is a heavy decision, but we have no other option.
The profile picture on our GoFundMe was taken when we first arrived in South Sudan. The second image in this post shows our current reality—the shelter we built while living here. https://gofund.me/12c12ab7
Support Families in War-Torn Sudan: A Fight for Survival
My n… Presley Stoyanova needs your support for Urgent Appeal to Support LGBTIQ
Thank you so much for your donations, which are truly saving lives. Even the truly small donations are making a big difference, and if you cannot afford donating, reblogging is a huge help. We appreciate your time and kindness in understanding our desperate situation.
I am calling upon you, non tranfem allies. It is time you you buckle you pants and you take this to the very extreme. You must passionately shut down and combat every modicum of transmisogyny you see. You must study books until the sun has set. You must do everything in your power to materially, vocally, and lovingly prop up the trans women of the world. Do this now, in every platform of every website. With every acquaintance, friend, and family member. It is time, to be loud, disruptive, and uncompromising. Also get organized.
It is a responsibility, and a continuous task. But as a cis person (or just tme in general) you are in an excellent position to be unapologetic activists. It is far easier and safer for you to do so. In your hands is the ability to make a difference for the sake of us, you can be part of something grand. This is perhaps, one of the most worthwhile things you can do in your life.
