The council has decided. look at my baby boy
I love how Zohran Mamdani is wearing a suit everywhere. And if he has anything else he puts it ON TOP of the suit. A basketball jersey. A high-vis vest. All worn over the suit. He’s like the mayor character in a cartoon who’s always dressed as The Mayor. If I didn’t know who he was and he biked past me in NYC I’d be like holy shit was that the mayor
warm up for work

Every romance story for gay men includes the stock character of the Wife, and every romance story for lesbians include the stock character of the Boyfriend. Both of them exist primarily as antagonistic obstacles to the inevitable gay sex, with a secondary function as a dumping ground for the author's anxieties regarding the "other" gender. The main difference, though, is that the author frequently takes glee in subjecting the Wife to misogyny, seeing it as just reward for the crime of serving the narrative role that the author invented her for. Conversely, it often seems as though the author doesn't even want the Boyfriend to be there, but feels obligated to include him because god forbid we tell a story that doesn't involve men's feelings. Anyway I think we need to pair the Wife and the Boyfriend up with each other and allow them to retire, so that all the gay men/lesbians who are normal about men/women can read their fuck stories in peace from now on
happy pride from some stretchy and sleepy cats <3
injecting my annoying hopless birds with potion of shut the fuck up
#straight up filling them like éclairs damn
Can someone PLEASE explain what the fuck is happening here
These are baby zebra finches. They are too young to get food for themselves.
Baby birds are fed by their parents dropping food into their mouths. For some birds these can be small bugs or seeds; for others, their parents grind it up into goo in their gizzards and vomit goo into their mouths. (Some even feed them milk that they make inside their own throats). Most birds have a crop, which is a sort of pouch at the top of their eosophagus where they can hold way more food than what can fit in their stomach at once; they shove a whole bunch of food into their faces and swallow it slowly over time. Normally, a parent would put as much food as they could into these annoying brats' mouths to fill up their crop.
These finches don't have a parent, so their human handler is doing the job with a syringe. When they are a bit older, they will learn to eat by themselves and this will no longer be necessary. Until then, they will be Really Loud And Annoying whenever they are hungry, as is the way of baby birds.

the person who helped today when I fell out of my wheelchair actually did a really great job, so I want to share in case other people wonder what to do. [Note: this is not universal, this is merely a suggestion from one person, every wheelchair user's needs are different! I am a person who uses a manual chair usually pushed by someone else who is also disabled.]
Scenario: you see someone in a wheelchair fall out of their chair, and you have the ability to help.
1. Approach and ask "are you okay?"*
2. Next question if they say no, are vague, or open to continuing conversation** is, "is there anything I can do to help?" Or "what can I do?"
If they say no to help, then that's the end, just leave and go do whatever you were doing!
If they ask for help or say they are mildly injured, ask "what would you like me to do?" And wait for an answer before doing anything! If they seem dazed or confused, they might have hit their head or had another medical event*, or they might just be like that due to regular disability. Be patient.
Do not touch the person unless they say to, or they are like, unconcious in the middle of the road, ya know?? Wheelchair users usually have conditions that mean being handled improperly can severely injure us, you could cause much more damage than the fall.
Some things they might need you to do:
Bring their wheelchair closer (mine went about 5 feet away after it dumped me)
engage the brakes of the wheelchair
hold wheelchair steady if it's an unsteady surface (mud, hill, ramp, wet, etc)
offer an arm for them to hold onto to get up (them grabbing you, not you grabbing them) or move another solid item closer for them to use (i.e. a chair) [only do this if you physically have the ability to!]
If the terrain is rough (i.e. a parking lot), they *might* ask you to push their chair to a more stable area once they are back in their chair
nothing
Something else
Do what they ask, NOT what you think would be helpful. If for some reason you have to do something (i.e. you can't stop oncoming traffic and need to get them out) ASAP, tell them what you plan to do
Keep in mind they might also be D/deaf, have a communication disability, be stunned after the fall, have a head injury, not trust other people, etc. Be patient and treat them as a person with autonomy and agency! They might need to just sit on the ground for a few minutes to recover before trying to get back in their chair. They might want everyone to leave them alone. They might ask you to call someone specific. Their chair might have broken and that can be extremely distressing. All of this is like if your legs spontaneously stop working when you're out and about!
A lot of wheelchair users (NOT ALL) have ways to get into their chair on their own once the chair is close enough and brakes engaged (but it's hard from the ground!). Here's what brakes look like on a lot of manual wheelchairs, in case they ask you to lock the brakes. They're levers on each side and pushing the lever pushes a bar against the wheel to hold it still.
ID: A manual wheelchair with the brake levels circled in red and labeled "user brake levers"
*There is also the possibility of course that a person fell out of their chair due to a seizure or other medical event, so that is why it is important to ask if they are okay. If you saw them hit their head, tell them so. If they had a medical event, follow protocol for that, I'm not gonna get into it here (thought I could).
**sometimes a person will be clear after the first question i.e. "I'm all good thanks" clearly means they do not need you to ask another question, you can just leave them alone. Keep walking and don't stare. A lot of the time people will be a bit banged up but be totally fine and able to manage on their own.
TLDR: Ask the wheelchair user if they're okay, then what they need, and then do exactly that, including leaving them alone. Thanks!
an important reply in the tags
[ID: A reply reading, "It's worth noting that unless someone is in immediate danger (on a road, near a chemical spill) there's basically no justification to move a unresponsive person on the ground, basic first aid will tell you that your objective is to stabilize and support until actual trained professionals arrive. Even outside of the context of pre-existing disability and being mishandled, if someone has a brand new neck injury you could seriously, permanently harm them by causing undue stress on the spine. You should always assume an unresponsive person on the ground has internal injuries you can't account for, and unless they're about to get smushed or asphyxiate on vomit leave them where you found them and call an ambulance." End ID]
if you don't do anything else today,
Please have a moment of silence for the people who were killed instead of freed when news of emancipation finally reached the furthest corners of the american south.
have another moment for the ledgers, catalogs, and records that were burned and the homes that were destroyed to hide the presence of very much alive and still enslaved people on dozens of plantations and homesteads across the south for decades after emancipation.
and have a third moment for those who were hunted and killed while fleeing the south to find safety across the border, overseas, in the north and to the west.
black people. light a candle, write a note to those who have passed telling them what you have achieved in spite of the racist and intolerant conditions of this world, feel the warmth of the flame under your hand, say a prayer of rememberance if you are religious, place the note under the candle, and then blow it out.
if you have children, sit them down and tell them anything you know about the life of oldest black person you've ever met. it doesn't have to be your own family. tell them what you know about what life was like for us in the days, years, decades after emancipation. if you don't know much, look it up and learn about it together.
This is Juneteenth.
white people CAN interact with this post. share it, spread it.

FUCKED IT UP THIS TIME
Fundraising on tumblr is survival. When tumblr deletes the blogs of people in Gaza, that is participation in genocide. It is unconscionable.
My friend Fadel's account has been banned again yesterday. He is extremely sad and exhausted at this treatment. Fadel's new blog is @fadell-aldany. Please follow him there and send him a message of encouragement. He has been on tumblr for years and has lost all of his connections.
He has been repeatedly hospitalized this month because his blood count is so low from going too long without his blood medication and proper nutrition. He desperately needs funds, and he cannot raise them if no one finds his blog. Fadel's campaign (gazavetters #197) is hosted by a friend of mine. I am texting with Fadel right now as I type this, and I personally can confirm that this new account is really him.
Please help him find his previous followers!
I don't know what to do about these procedures. I am very ill and desperately need support. My health is in very poor condition, and on top of all that, I am being restricted by this policy. I hope everyone will look upon me with compassion and stand by me.
Fadel really needs donations to be able to afford the cost of his healthcare. Every time he cannot raise enough there are ripple effects and life becomes harder, more painful, and more costly. When there's not enough for his monthly blood medication, he's had to go without, and now he needs his medication and treatment for severe anemia from going without his medication. If you can afford to donate anything, please have compassion and help him stabilize.

"Soundness for women, and sometimes for men, was tied to sexual attractiveness and to reproductive ability. Thomas Jefferson declared, "I consider a slave woman who breeds once every two years as profitable as the best worker on the farm." Every year from 1750 until emancipation, one of every five Black women of childbearing age (between fifteen and forty-four) gave birth.
Girls were either forced or enticed into sexual relationships at an unhealthily early age by owners who cited the girls' supposedly hot-blooded African nature. Sexually transmitted diseases thrived on the plantation, notably syphilis, against which the immunologically naive Africans had little protection.
Enslaved women's vulnerability began on the sea passage from Africa, as recorded in the 1788 memoirs of English ship's surgeon Alexander Falconbridge: "On board some ships the common sailors are allowed to have intercourse with such of the Black women whose consent they can procure... The officers are permitted to indulge their passions among them at pleasure and sometimes are guilty of such excesses as disgrace human nature."
But whites ascribed Black women's sexual availability not to their powerlessness but to a key tenet of scientific racism: Blacks were unable to control their powerful sexual drives, which were frequently compared to those of rutting animals. This lack of control made Black men dangerous and made Black women sexually aggressive Jezebels who habitually enticed white men into inappropriate sexual relations.
Dr. Louis Agassiz, the famous Harvard ethnologist, explained: "As soon as the sexual desires.are awakening in the young men of the South, they find it easy to gratify themselves by the readiness with which they are met by colored [mixed race] house servants... This blunts his better instinct in that direction and leads him gradually to seek more spicy partners, as I have heard the full Blacks called by fast young men.""
