@polyamsuggestion
Hey so I was wondering is it possible to be open to having a polyamorous relationship without strictly being polyamorous? Bc like I wouldn't mind being in either a monogamous (is that the right word?) or polyamorous relationship but I wouldn't call myself either? Sorry if this is offensive I'm very uneducated on the topic and I'm just curious.
Yes, it is!

Calling all Polyam People/Polycules!
Hello, I'm taking a cultural anthropology class and I've decided to do a study on the polyamorous community. Even though I'm part of the polyam community, there is still much I have to learn about the ups and downs of polyamory. If you or any partners or any polyam people you know would be up for an interview of sorts, please contact me via tumblr. If not, please feel free to help me spread the word! Thank you for your time -- Shepherd (he/him)

We need you to show support for protestors and the Kanaka Maoli.

Call to action to help native Hawaiians protect Mauna Kea
“Call Governor IGE’s office 808-586-0034
Call lieutenant Gov Josh Green’s office 808-586-2211

Kanaka Maoli (Native Hawaiians) have spent generations battling environmental injustices in their islands. Currently, there’s a fight to protect the sacred Mauna Kea volcano from the destructive Thirty Meter Telescope.
For nearly a decade, Native Hawaiians have fought the TMT - a $1.4 billion international science project - because its construction threatens to damage sacred land and fragile habitats on a summit that already houses other observatories.
Protestors have kept up grassroots resistance with legal challenges, physical road blockades, and social media campaigns. Although the latest legal decisions have voted in favor of the TMT, Native Hawaiians and allies aren’t giving up.
Learn more from Hawaiian environmental advocacy organization, KAHEA.
from their website:
Mauna Kea Legal Defense Fund
Today, we are asking for your kōkua! In order to continue our fight in court to protect lands on Mauna Kea’s summit. We need to raise funds for legal fees and other costs associated with travel to participate in hearings and to publicize legal efforts and results. Will you give today?
We are facing well-funded developers from some of the world’s wealthiest nations, and some of the highest paid attorneys in Hawai‘i. Yet, we also are building on over 15 years of successful advocacy, closer than ever to realizing our vision of a better future for this incredible summit–where native habitat and cultural sites can be restored, and species brought back from the edge of extinction.

This morning 7/15/19
Some of ya’ll say you support Native Hawaiians but only reblog posts that have hundreds of notes. This is literally happening RIGHT NOW 7/15/19.
Canada, as the worst polluter per capita in the G20, has a responsibility to make deep emissions cuts and to support lower and middle-income countries in their transitions to fossil free economies.
On behalf of youth and voters from across Canada, we ask that our government take real and immediate action to prevent climate catastrophe.
We are in a climate crisis, with the lives of hundreds of millions of people – and the stability of civilization – at risk. Canada is not immune – we are experiencing warming at twice the global rate; in Northern Canada, three times. British Columbia and Alberta now have a “wildfire season”. Increased flooding is spilling over the banks of Prairie rivers. The ground is literally collapsing below the feet of Indigenous peoples in the North due to permafrost melt. Millions in coastal cities are threatened by sea level rise. We, as a nation, must take immediate action to stop this crisis.
On October 8, 2018, the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change released a report detailing the catastrophic consequences of 2.0 degrees Celsius of global warming. Thousands of climate scientists from 195 countries stated the imperative need for bold climate action now. To limit warming to 1.5 degrees Celsius, we have less than 11 years to cut global greenhouse gas emissions in half.
The virtually unanimous scientific consensus is that humans are causing the climate crisis and that it disproportionately affects marginalized people, including but not limited to: Indigenous peoples, racialized communities, people of colour, and the poor, populations that overwhelmingly make up the Arctic, the Global South, and lower and middle-income countries.
Canada, as the worst polluter per capita in the G20, has a responsibility to make deep emissions cuts and to support lower and middle-income countries in their transitions to fossil free economies.
The urgency of the climate crisis compelled over 1.6 million students from over 120 countries to walk out of class on March 15th, 2019, including over 160,000 Canadian youth.
On May 3rd, youth across Canada are striking again. Youth will continue to act until we see the action that we demand.
We, as citizens, therefore call upon all political parties and politicians to create and commit to a science-based and human rights focused Emergency Plan for Climate Justice that limits global warming to 1.5 degrees Celsius.
We, as citizens, pledge to vote only for political parties and politicians that include the following demands in their Emergency Plan for Climate Justice.
Bold Emissions Reductions Targets: Legislate greenhouse gas emission reductions of 65% by 2030, reaching net zero emissions by 2040.
Separation of Oil and State: Reject all new fossil fuel extraction or transportation projects, eliminate fossil fuel subsidies, and price pollution.
A Just Transition: Transition to renewable energy and sustainable transportation infrastructure while guaranteeing opportunity for fossil fuel workers in the new economy.
Environmental Rights: Enshrine in law the fundamental right to a healthy environment. This would include, but is not limited to, the right to safe air, clean water, and healthy soil.
Indigenous Rights: Commit to the United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples in full.
Conservation of Biodiversity: Maintain and protect old growth forests, restore cut blocks, reduce habitat fragmentation and strengthen the protection of at risk species.
Protection for Vulnerable Groups: Recognize Canada’s disproportionate role in the climate crisis and subsequent responsibility for the protection of the most vulnerable. Include the addition of climate displacement as a basis for refugee status. Provide climate aid to lower and middle-income countries, as well as Arctic Canada, which disproportionately experience the impacts of the climate crisis.
Climate Strike Canada echos the demands presented in the Platform for Emergency Action on Climate and Environment.

I have a bf of two months and I really really love him and I can’t tell if I have a crush on an established couple and I feel like shit bc he’s insecure and I don’t want to ruin anything but I don’t know what to do and it’s making me sick please help
any advice?
In defence of separate bedrooms
Me and my boyfriend have our own bedrooms. And I always feel when I tell people this I always feel I need to justify it. We do usually sleep in the same bed, you know. We are a couple.
It was important for us both, as it turned out, that we have to have our own space. Some of the reasons are specifically poly, and some are not–as with most relationship advice.
-having somewhere to have other partners over without imposing on your live in partner(s) is useful
-it’s emotionally healthy to have a space that is just your own where you can shut the door on the rest of the world when you need to. Where you can keep your things and decorate it however makes you happy.
-being able to easily have space during disagreement helps head off arguments
-being able to “stay over at your partner’s place” even when you live together keeps it feeling fun and exciting
-making a conscious decision to share a bed each night is a good way to practise informed consent, and makes it easier to have a night to yourself when you want to without it feeling like a slight on your partner
-being able to close the door on your partner’s mess means no more arguments over dirty socks on the floor
I appreciate we’re lucky that we have the money and the space to do this, and not everyone can. But I think being able to choose to spend time together is far more romantic than being in an enclosed space together.
So I figured out recently and have accepted that I‘m poly (I‘ve known for a while but only recently stopped feeling gross or wrong for it), and it was whatever until I got a crush on someone and I‘m already with my boyfriend and ugh it sucks bc he knows but says no to me dating someone else hhhhh
Your boyfriend shouldn't control if you date another person or not to be in a polyam, but you also would need to respect what he says. But if he's over assertive about it or rude then maybe you should reevaluate your relationship with him.
I'm glad that you accept you're poly, that's great! I hope that now this will help you feel a little better.
If anyone has advice, please drop it below.

I’m suing the U.S. government for causing the climate change crisis, and I'm 22.
My name is Kelsey Juliana and I’m suing the United States government for causing and accelerating the climate change crisis. I’m 22 years old and I’ve been a climate activist for more than half of my life.
I know that young people like me, and others who have yet to be born, have a right to a safe climate system. The constitution guarantees all Americans the right to life, liberty, and property. But how is anyone supposed to live a life of freedom amid a climate crisis? My own government is violating my constitutional rights by its ongoing and deliberate actions that cause climate change and it’s not right.
I, along with 20 other young people from around the country, filed a lawsuit against the federal government in 2015, called Juliana v. United States.
We’re not asking for money. Instead, we’re asking the court to order the government to develop and implement a National Climate Recovery Plan based on the best available science.
This plan should end the reign of fossil fuels and quickly decarbonize our atmosphere so that we can stabilize our climate system before it’s too late.
The longer we go without climate recovery, the more we risk allowing our climate to spiral completely out of control.
And the climate is spiraling out of control, no matter how many politicians claim we’re experiencing normal fluctuations or, worse, a “hoax.” All of the expert witnesses in our lawsuit say that we are currently—already—in the “danger zone” and an “emergency situation” with only 1°C of planetary heating. Allowing the planet to heat up any more is not safe for our species, as well as so many others. And according to the Trump administration’s most recent environmental impact statement, the planet could heat as much as 7°F before the end of this century. We cannot allow this to happen because we simply will not survive.
We originally filed our lawsuit against the Obama administration. That administration tried to have the case dismissed, but the judge ruled in our favor and found that we should be allowed to go to trial.
In 2017, the Trump administration inherited the lawsuit and it has done everything in its power, employing every conceivable tactic, to deny my fellow plaintiffs and me our right to present our case in court. This administration is so fiercely attempting to silence our voices.
At this point, every level of the federal judiciary—the U.S. District Court, the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals, and the Supreme Court—has denied the Trump administration’s efforts to have the case thrown out. Yet it will not halt its efforts to avoid standard legal procedures and confront us, the nation’s youth, in court.
Our trial is officially scheduled to begin on October 29, 2018 in Eugene, Oregon.
What we’re asking for could change everything.
My fellow plaintiffs and I want you with us as we head into the courtroom to confront the United States government for knowingly violating our constitutional rights. Supporters will hold rallies in every state around the country, so if you can’t be with us in Eugene, find your local rally here.

DRYP - an app that keeps your plants alive and happy
Hi Tumblr!
I know I’ve been gone for a while.
In part it’s because I’ve been working on an app!
I keep a lot of plants. I think everyone should!
- They clean your air - They give you something to name - They give you something to take care of - They teach you about care, needs, and resources - They make you look like you’re good at decorating
Here are some of mine:
But some people, because they’re overwhelmed or simply can’t figure out how to start, think that plants are out of their reach.
DRYP is for newcomers and experts.
It reminds you when to water
And it helps you fix what’s broken
If you think the world would be better with this app in it, please consider contributing to the Kickstarter!
I’ve tried to make it worth your while:
