You never know what in the fuck you're gonna get when you click this Tumblr, dear reader that's well beyond my zip code. Retro Sci-Fi art? Hell yeah. Femmes in diapers? You betcha. Being a decent human being? You know it. Tales of weirdness? Fuck yeah. X-Files? Absolutely.
Dress for the cyberpunk dystopia you want; not the one we're currently in. We're all in this fuckshow together. Allies against a most dangerous foe.
This is Punk Rock time. This is what Joe Strummer trained you for.
contrary to popular belief i think calvin's adhd is, funnily enough, medicated. he takes extended release ritalin every morning alongside his chocolate frosted sugar bombs. this is because he appreciates being more easily able to focus on his various Schemes, Projects, and Machinations while more effectively ignoring schoolwork
calvin's dad pulling up to the house and seeing the whole driveway covered in a (completed) snowman recreation of the entire terracotta army and he takes a deep breath and greets calvin's mom with "i see calvin remembered his methylphenidate today"
Remember barely even a week ago when the New York Times editorial staff put out an article calling Trump's erasure of trans people abhorrent, but took no responsibility for their role in it?
There are moments when it feels like the world has moved on, like everything we’ve lost is just another story that people scroll past. But every now and then, kindness reminds us that we are not forgotten.
Today, we’ve reached $1,580 out of $90,000, and while it’s still a long way from what we need, it’s proof that people still care. That hope still exists.
I never thought I would be in a position where I had to ask for help just to survive. 25 members of my family are gone. Our home has been reduced to rubble. Every day is a fight—not just for survival, but to hold onto the smallest piece of dignity.
💔 No stability, no safety, no certainty.
💔 Evacuations, grief, and endless struggles.
💔 Dreams on hold, because survival comes first.
But through all of this, your kindness gives me strength.
Even if you can’t donate, just sharing this post helps us reach more people who might be able to. Your support—no matter how small—makes all the difference.

From the bottom of my heart, thank you. Your kindness is the only reason we still have hope. ❤️
Yo, correct me if I am wrong please, but didn't Hitler rise to power because he promised to fix the German economy and people really liked that so they looked past everything else he was doing??? Like exactly what's happening in America right now???
So many people said they voted for Trump, put a truly evil person in power, because he said he'd fix the economy, and a little voice in my head is going, "Isn't that what happened with fucking Hitler??"
But I've seen no one point that out so maybe I'm miss remembering???????
All the political discourse rn and I have seen NOBODY talking about The Third Wave????
Do you know what that is???? No???? Well Imma tell you! in 1967 high school teacher Ron Jones conducted an experiment during a lecture on the holocaust when they couldn't understand how the German people could allow the Nazi's to do such things to the jewish people. Jones started a movement called "The Third Wave" and told his students that the movement aimed to eliminate democracy. Jones postulated that democracy’s focus on individuality was against mankind’s “authoritarian” nature, which he aimed to emphasize with the movement’s motto: "Strength through discipline, strength through involvement." and only made simple changes on the first day like asking his students to sit properly, to raise their hands before speaking, and to address him as Mr. Jones.
The experiment was meant to be only one day, but the students took to it. On day two a salute was made and the movement was called the third wave. It began to grow as his students not only took to his tactics, but other students wanted to join in. The line "Strength through community" was added in. And then on the third day as the movement grew again, the motto "Strength through action" was added. Students were given member cards, taught how to initiate new members, and were instructed to report anyone who did not abide by the rules. By the fourth day the experiment was blowing out of Jones' control so he told the students that it was a nationwide movement, and that he next day a presidential candidate of the Third Wave would announce its existence to the public. Students were asked to attend a rally at noon the next day, and three students who dissented were banished to the library while the rally was held- where jones had other friends pretend to be speakers before revealing the "president" of the movement: Adolf Hitler.
It emphasized being careful about who you follow. The experiment was made into a tv movie in 1981 called The Wave (which I highly recommend watching btw), and shows how easily people can fall into fascism. Please watch it or read the novel of the same name by Todd Strasser, or Check out the wikipedia page. Get yourself educated and use what you learn to protect your loved ones please.
At least one reporter counted the attendees of the protest to number over 1,000 people.
On Friday, protests erupted at Stonewall National Monument, the historic site of the Stonewall uprisings that ignited the modern gay rights movement and led to the first Pride celebrations in the United States. With less than 24 hours’ notice, demonstrators gathered in response to changes made by the Trump administration to the National Park Service website for the monument. The revisions erased transgender people from several sections of the site, altering LGBTQ+ to LGBQ+ before ultimately reducing it to just LGB. Protesters condemned the move as an attempt to rewrite history, stripping trans activists of their critical role in the uprising that catalyzed the fight for LGBTQ+ rights
Protesters chanted slogans such as “No LGB without the T!,” “When they’re done with us, they’re coming for you—wake up, wake up, this is your fight too!” and “Trans lives matter!” according to HuffPost journalist Matt Shuham. In a symbolic act of defiance, the National Park Service sign for Stonewall National Monument was altered with sidewalk chalk to read “Stonewall National Transgender Monument.” Another sign proclaimed, “The bricks didn’t throw themselves,” featuring images of Marsha P. Johnson and Sylvia Rivera, two transgender activists who played a pivotal role in the Stonewall uprisings and the subsequent fight for LGBTQ+ rights.
The protests follow a broader effort by the Trump administration to systematically erase any mention of “transgender” from government websites, now reaching the National Park Service. Before the recent update, the Stonewall National Monument page acknowledged that "before the 1960s, almost everything about living openly as a lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, or queer (LGBTQ+) person was illegal.” The revised version now states, “almost everything about living openly as a lesbian, gay, bisexual (LGB) person was illegal,” effectively erasing transgender people from the historical narrative.
The edits didn’t stop there. Individual pages dedicated to transgender figures instrumental in the Stonewall uprising were also altered to erase transgender references. The changes were often sloppy and rushed, revealing the haphazard nature of the effort. In one glaring example, Sylvia Rivera’s section originally stated, “At a young age, Sylvia began fighting for gay and transgender rights.” The revised version read, “gay and rights,” with the word “transgender” removed entirely, rendering the sentence nonsensical.
Transgender history is inseparable from the history of Stonewall. Raids on LGBTQ+ bars were often justified by laws policing gendered clothing, disproportionately targeting transgender people. At Stonewall, Sylvia Rivera famously stated that while she did not “throw the first Molotov cocktail,” she did throw the second. Transgender woman Zazu Nova is among those credited with “throwing the first brick,” sparking the uprising. Marsha P. Johnson, another key figure in the protests that followed, played a critical role in shaping the movement. Erasing transgender people from the Stonewall narrative is a blatant attempt to rewrite history.
Stripping transgender people from Stonewall’s history is not just an act of historical revisionism—it is a calculated effort to erase an entire community from the very movement they helped ignite. Among the sweeping efforts to purge transgender identities from government records, passports, and healthcare guidance, this stands out as one of the most blatant attempts to rewrite reality. The Trump administration’s agenda is clear: to systematically erase transgender people from public life, beginning with the very acknowledgment of their existence. When a leader comes to power by demonizing a minority and one of their first acts is to erase all official recognition of that group, it should be a blaring alarm. This is not just political posturing—it is the groundwork for something far more dangerous, and something that transgender people are intent on resisting.
