🌸TERFs/ace and aro exclusionists/MAPs don't interact thanks🌸 Black lives matter, free Palestine.🍉 THIS BLOG CONTAINS NSFW CONTENT, not all of it is tagged! Marcy/Marsh, white, he/she/they. I’m 26 years old and happily taken🥰 My icon was made by aceuserboxes (they're deactivated now) and my header is made by KirstyCarter on deviantart. Also Myqueenmarceline on Ao3!
Hi there! My name's Marsh/Marcy and I'm 26. My pronouns are he (preferred)/she/they. I'm genderfluid and experimenting with them, so that list may change. I'm sapphic and don't really mind what else you want to call me. I'm also Canadian🇨🇦 and have a lovely fiancée I talk to in tags sometimes❤️
My tumblr has some NSFW content that is not all tagged and some politics. If either of those will be an issue feel free to just block. I'm not very interested in debating or arguing. A general summary is: I'm a leftist, I'm queer, and I believe in human rights and better social support systems for everyone. Trans rights are essential to fight for, especially those of trans women (and yes, transmisogyny is real!). We can (and should) free Palestine without being antisemitic.
I've fallen out of the habit of tagging reblogs, but if you need me to start doing so for something specific, please feel free to let me know!
I go by the same name on Ao3, feel free to go find all of my fanfic there, though it's also under the "my writing" tag along with original works :)
Lots of rambling about me and my personal interests under the cut. I hope you have fun scrolling my blog!😊
I love learning about many things in life, including literature, media studies, history, social science, psychology, biology, and geology. There isn't really a rhyme or reason to this blog, I'm just reblogging stuff I like. I especially love dinosaurs (especially sauropods), insects (especially beetles and pill bugs), dogs (especially Huskies, Borzoi, and Labs), reptiles (especially lizards and snakes), birds (especially chickens, cardinals, and jays), and minerals (quartz, amethyst, and turquoise).
I also love science-fiction, fantasy, and horror. I am fascinated by how people develop fictional worlds and mythos, and how we can read them through different critical lenses. It would take too long to list out my favourite authors, but the best book I've read this year is High Times in the Low Parliament by Kelly Robson.
My main fandoms are Adventure Time, Gravity Falls, The Owl House, Percy Jackson, Welcome to Night Vale, Person of Interest, the Alien movies, Otherside Picnic, Monstress (the comic), Mushishi, Dinosaur Sanctuary (please talk to me about this manga!!), and the Companion movie (2025)
If you're interested in my own tags, I mainly use #my writing and #my stuff to post stories. I use #ask to respond to asks, feel free to chat about anything! My face is under #my selfies and #my face, but I don't post those very often anymore.
I also create moodboards over @lgbtquiap-moodboards. I'm a bit behind but if you want to go check it out and send in any requests, feel free to do so!
the fact that "eco" and "ethical" are two separate concerns in the global north, and that "eco" is a much more popular concern, with many "eco" products being made in actual sweatshops, is a big part of why i am The Joker
if you think this is an exaggeration or splitting hairs where it doesn't matter:
i used to work at a Local Organic Produce store that's popular with the lefties in my city who are interested in food justice. i quit for a lot of reasons, mostly the boss, but something i will always remember is one of our suppliers coming in to drop off produce, being told her check wasn't ready, and her laughing and responding it didn't matter -- even a low bank account was more than enough to pay the migrants who picked her produce. i am not filling in any blanks here. she said this.
after quitting, this was a common story i told people about my time there. some then became annoyed at me, acting like i was a wokescold trying to undermine the store's "eco" mission with unrelated "ethical" concerns. but, like -- if food justice isn't for the people making food, who the fuck is it for?
like, don't get me wrong. my contention here is that the things go hand in hand, and that something which is unethical isn't actually eco. after all, humans are a part of the fucking ecosystem, and if a product can only be made by unsustainably exploiting humans, then it's unsustainable. doesn't matter which chemicals were used in making it, or whether or not animals were factory farmed.
they *cannot* be separated. a product cannot be either eco or ethical — it must be both. a product that is made through human suffering cannot be eco for the reasons you said; a product that causes human suffering by contributing to the destruction of the ecosystem cannot be ethical. it must be both and we must insist on both
I'm just going to say it - body hair (and beauty standards in general) is truly one of the final frontiers of women's issues in the West. Too many women just love their gilded cage too much. It shocks me how virulently women will defend it. I barely open my mouth and the "well I like how it feels. it just makes me feel cleaner. sensory issues. I do it for me. feminism is about choosing (to conform)." brigade come rushing in by the dozens.
Well I don't like how it feels. I don't feel cleaner without body hair. I don't prefer not having body hair. But who will advocate for women like me, but me? For women who do like hair removal, they are advocated for every time they step out of the house and see 99% of the female population also conforming to that standard, or when they watch a movie and see all the shaved actresses, or view an advertisment, or open a magazine, or watch a music video, or scroll through social media, or walk down the streets without receiving insults and glares for having a completely normal bodily feature.
You genuinely can't even point out that hairlessness is a man-made standard without women losing their shit and acting like they are totally immune to propaganda they've been exposed to from birth. I'm so tired.
groping around for my vape in the dark and I brush up against the tilt rod fuse of the Type 84 anti-tank mine I keep in the bed, killing myself and my wife instantly
Unfortunately, these may be my last hours because Israel is preventing my treatment. Please leave a donation to help save my six little siblings… and please do not forget them if I die.
Congrats to every reply like this for failing to understand the fundamental definition of an accent. Of course you think you sound normal! It's the way you speak!
Further context: Durham city council (Reform UK) cut funding and support for Pride. The Durham Miner's Association and other trade unions raised enough money for Durham Pride 2026 to go ahead - a direct call back to when Lesbian and Gays Support the Miners (LGSM) raised money for mining communities when Margaret Thatcher seized union funding during the miner strikes of 1984-85.
At the 1985 Labour party meet, the motion to support LGBT rights as a party was passed due to a block vote from mining unions.
Stephen Guy, the chair of the Durham Miners’ Association, said that when it became apparent Durham Pride was under threat, he took it upon himself to “encourage the trade union movement to step up and do the right thing, and stand shoulder to shoulder with the LGBT+ community […] They not only raised funds for us, but came to our communities, uplifted our spirits when they were down, and showed their solidarity.”
Hey everyone, Intersex Justice Project has made this petition to end intersex surgery at Lurie Children’s Hospital. I’ve seen it trending on twitter but not on tumblr, so if you haven’t yet please sign and share/signal boost!
Hi! If you are reading this, I’m a person with Complete Androgen Insensitivity Syndrome that has a male gender identity. Therefore, I identify as a guy! And currently I’m figuring out my own ftm transition.
CAIS is a condition in which as the name says, there is a total or almost total insensitivity to androgen because the Androgen Receptor doesn’t work (there is a mutation). So, a CAIS person is born with XY chromosomes but since lacks of androgens, the fetus cannot masculinize properly. So, organs like uterus, fallopian tubes etc. don’t develope and the body can’t menstruate but reproduces a female apparatus. Testicles are under skin and since can’t develop properly, testosterone (from testicles) aromatise in estrogen.
The majority of people with CAIS identify as women. Still, since I did some research, I found out that there are persons with CAIS like me that identify as men.
I decided to create this blog to spread awareness about us and maybe, to gather people like me!
It is not easy to feel this way because, of course, there is no cure for this condition right now, so, no possibility to have the proper effects of Testosterone.
Anyhow, if someone like me is reading this: you are valid, there are people like us, and we can do something about this :D
Anyway, sorry for my english.
And thank to everybody who read this.
If you want to know more, this guy did an amazing job reporting about this:
The first LGBT group I ever joined asked me to leave because they didn’t consider asexual to count as queer. It wasn’t visible enough to them. And more than that, they were concerned that I was a CisHet man only using the label of asexual to sneak into what was meant to be a safe space
Now that I’m out and transitioned, I still run up against this suspicion that I’m just infiltrating spaces and making them dangerous for the people they’re meant to protect
I’m tired of being seen as a predator when I’m just trying to exist
