Approximately 130,000 - 260,000 Americans have been forced to flee their homes because of legislation criminalizing trans existence.

US Internal Refugee Crisis: 130-260k Trans People Have Already Fled

A growing refugee crisis is occurring in the United States, and it is getting very little coverage. I highlight the growing migration crisis

That’s 8% of transgender Americans. An additional 43% of transgender Americans are seriously considering moving due to laws criminalizing our existence and healthcare.

“So many people are completely helpless to get out, even with all the bumps and roadblocks, the fact is I'm still one of the lucky ones.” Said Sheena, a trans woman who fled from from Florida.

“it's evident that the United States is in the throes of a swelling crisis of internally displaced political refugees. Over a million people, themselves contemplating relocation in the coming months, remain in a state of apprehensive vigilance, awaiting the potential signal that they too must bid farewell to their homes.”

When whumpee passes out and the person who just happens to be standing next to them has to suddenly drop everything and try to catch them, then there’s that awkward thing where whumpee’s dead weight kinda pulls them down. Reblog if you agree.

i’m very quickly getting sick of left leaning dudes being like “eh well getting rid of DEI isn’t really the worst thing he could do” like congratulations you dumb fucks you fell for the fascist propaganda

[fluorescentbrains]

they want you to think of DEI as the corny workplace training you had to take that one time so you’ll shrug it off as they axe every program that suggests minorities should have equal rights

After Trump DEI order, MSU cancels Lunar New Year event

A college within Michigan State University canceled a lunch celebrating the Lunar New Year in part because of President Trump’s recent execu

this is the kind of shit that will happen as a result of moves like this. “but but but that’s not even DEI—“ it doesn’t fucking matter because everyone knows DEI is code for literally anything that doesn’t center white men

[fandomsandfeminism]

"DEI" is not only a very broad term in itself, but is also just used by the new regime as a catch all for "minority."

I mean honestly I don’t hate Harris. or Biden, who has actually done a lot of good in the last four years especially considering the mess he had to clean up. but whatever gets the “my imaginary moral high ground is more important than peoples’ lives” fucks to vote.

[tearlessrain]

like she will probably be on the whole a legitimately good president and I think at a certain point the “ugh I know every option SUCKS but just hold your nose and vote” thing is just feeding the doomerism. things won’t just not get worse under a democratic president, they will improve. just because Harris does not hold the exact same views as a 20 year old tumblr socialist doesn’t mean she won’t make life tangibly better as long as we can get the house and senate squared away.

also Trump losing to a nonwhite woman might piss him off enough that he dies of rage like a sim so I think we should try it just in case.

I had a dream and you were in it…

[Content ID: A four panel comic about Dean and Castiel from Supernatural. The setting is an old wood paneled motel room. The first panel shows Castiel in front of a halo-like light, he is focused on a book. End panel. The second panel shows Dean alone staring at Castiel from across the motel room. His brow is furrowed with thought. He is backlit by a warm colored table lamp. End panel. The third panel depicts a scene taking place in Dean’s head. The two are now face to face, about to share a kiss. They are backlit by the lamp, now this time, the halo light sits above Dean’s head. End panel. The final panel is a hard cut back to Dean. Though still backlit by the lamp, he is now looking down at the ground in shame. His brow is furrowed with sadness. End panel. End ID.]

one way to read this is "this man has no idea what he is saying"

another to read this is "this man is terminally online and has excellent comedic timing"

[optionalcausality]

Okay, this is fantastic.

[fandomsandfeminism]

Definitely the second. I've seen this trend done by bored/confused folks, and the inflection is all wrong. This man *understands* the joke and has 10/10 charisma.

I like the idea that Ed realizes Mustang and Hawkeye are in love but can't figure out why they don't just get married already and he's decided it's because Mustang is an idiot. He doesn't know the full extent of their traumatic past and he doesn't give a fuck about authority so anti-fraternization laws would mean nothing to him. But he does think Mustang is almost too stupid to live so the only logical conclusion is that Mustang is just, like, terrible at romance. So Ed and Al make it their mission to get them together, parent trap style. They invite Mustang and Hawkeye individually to discuss *important information relating to national safety* or something and when they show up there's a romantic dinner set for two and Zampano is playing the violin in the corner.

Trump was almost assassinated again, and no one even posting about it

Sorry everyone, let me try again in tumblr

sometimes you just have to let yourself be a bit neurodivergent.

i hate going out, it gives me a lot of anxiety and sensory input that i dont like, and i am often forced to talk to people.

so i do this thing on more difficult days, or sometimes just for fun, where i "bring a fictional character with me". i walk and imagine Fictional Character walking next to me. they talk to me, reassure me, hype me up, whatever i need them to do.

today dean winchester came christmas shopping with me. he went over the list with me of stuff i needed to get, told me i was doing a good job every time i finished in a certain shop, reminded me to take a deep breath when i got a little overwhelmed.

and yea. its kinda silly. and i know its just me talking to myself in a different voice, but it Works! especially since all of my special interests/hyperfixations tend to be tv/movie related.

so do what you gotta do to Get Shit Done. stop holding yourself to neurotypical standards. if you need Fictional Character to tell you you're doing a good job, do it! if you need Favourite Singer to walk you to school, do it! yea it might feel silly but you're literally fighting against your own brain to get stuff done every single day. you can have a little self indulgent daydream, as a treat.
