I'm taking a break from tumblr. For mental health reasons. I do plan on coming back, and i want all my mutuals to know that you are awesome. You're all the best things about this website. Thank you.
Tumblr doesn't allow you to deactivate your account. You can only delete it and lose everything. I don't want to do that because I want to come back some day. But for now, this is an inactive account.
Be safe and never, ever give up.

Stickers seen around NYC in the days after cops opened fire in the NYC subway, shooting a fellow officer, two bystanders, and an alleged "fair evader" they were attempting to apprehend.
Help Some Queers, Maybe?
heyyy so my roommate quit her job recently so we've been doing whatever odds and ends we can do to get by until she can find a new one, and right now that includes asking for money online (again) There isnt really a definite goal because the work shes been getting in the meantime is weird and unstable.
i do art sometimes and i have a patreon i try to update whenever i can where you can see whatever ive drawn that week or so (even the weird lil wips) but i do not do commission. I have future plans to start selling stickers but thats been in... stasis... for a while now
to help on a more one time basis these are your options

Someone said Fat People can't do this on twitter and someone posted this as a response and i think its important people see things like this to know they're just fatphobic and wrong
[X]
I already reblogged this, and originally I wanted to say something but just couldn't find the right words.
So I'll just say this... the only reason you don't see more fat people doing things like this is because of fatphobia. Period.
Sometimes that's a situation where a fat person has developed an unhealthy relationship to exercise because of fatphobia so they just don't do it. Sometimes that's because most people don't want to see fat people doing things like this, so they don't give fat people a chance to show the world what we can do. Sometimes it's because fat people don't want to subject themselves to the abuse that comes with just being seen by the world while fat, so they don't broadcast their talents to a wider audience.
There's honestly a million reasons you don't usually see fat people doing things like this, and absolutely zero of those reasons are because we can't.
My ex-husband is a fat stage combatant. He's been working at Ren Faires and other shows like that since the early 90s.
The first time that a lot of younger directors see him, they want to hand him a big axe and see him move slowly and be big and scary.
Those directors are fucking foolish, and anybody who has worked with him (and the couple of other guys built like him in their local group) knows that.
Yeah, he's fat. You know what else he is? Real fucking fast, and able to fling himself around in ways that some skinnier combatants just can't. He does shoulder rolls and just pops back up to his feet like a fucking Weeble. He's in his mid 50s now and moves as easily as people decades his junior.
One of the things they did for several years during the chess matches when they had both him and another guy who was as fast as him and built like him was a fight they called the Clash of the Titans, bc both John and Matt were big enough to throw each other around the chess board and fast enough to make a rapier fight between the two of them really, really fun to watch. They'd switch weapons 3+ times a fight, run back and forth across the board... the fights were several minutes long and just... incredible.
I miss being able to watch those fights bc John is doing other shit these days, but. My ex is still at it, as long as his joints hold out.
The thing that abled people who advocate for the disabled community don’t get is that there are times when disabilities/accommodations clash. Horribly.
Like I spent years having to come up with a solution to get therapy dogs into a series of residence halls. Why years? Because we had to decide who got to stay and who got to leave: the people who needed therapy dogs or the people with severe allergies to animals. Who got the alternative housing?
Things like fidget toys might seem great for some disabled people but having them in the room could be distracting/overstimulating for others. The same goes with stimming. It can’t be helped but neither can the anxiety that another person in the room feels as they watch/hear it. Additionally, something like a weighted blanket might immediately calm one kid down and send the other one into a panic attack due to the claustrophobia it causes. (*Points to myself*)
Every Metro bus in New York City has a series of seats at the front that can be lifted up to accommodate people in wheelchairs but if I’m in one of those spots then someone with a cane/walker has to journey even further to sit down.
The flashing lights of a fire alarm are there to help deaf/hearing impaired but if they’re not properly timed, they can also cause a person to have a seizure.
The worst part about all of these is that there is rarely a concrete solution that makes everyone happy/safe. And I’m not here to offer any because I don’t know them. I’m just here to remind you all that as you’re taking your education/health classes, as you’re reading your textbooks, as you’re preparing to go be an advocate, just remember that there is rarely ever such a thing as a one-size-fits-all solution to advocacy and that something you do that can help one disabled person might actually hinder another.
Food for thought.

Discworld Heritage Post
I hate our shitty apartment and I can't stand our asshole neighbor, but I do know the names of all the plants growing around our building, and I've been watching the same birds for so long that I recognize specific individuals. There's a male cardinal who I refuse to name (because I won't name wild animals), but who I fondly refer to as "the Loud Boy." He just finished growing his feathers back after molting for the year.
My little container garden attracts pollinators and birds, and it makes this shitty living situation a little bit brighter. It's about the only thing that keeps me going some days, but it does keep me going.
I approve this message.

Pops’s Great Big Mutual Aid Masterpost
So, this isn’t the first post ever made like this, but I’m trying to do something a little different than just posting a bunch of links. I’m only gonna include resources that are international, common, displayed either as a map or as a geographically-sorted list, and easy to participate in, to make this masterpost as accessible as I possibly can. If you’re reading this post you’re probably an English-speaker with an internet connection, and so with that in mind my goal here is that any given link you click will have a decent chance of having something near you, and there will almost certainly be at least one link on this list with something you can plug into
Groups
Mutual Aid Wiki - A map of mutual aid groups of all kinds, largely (but not exclusively) ones started in response to the pandemic
Food Not Bombs - A map of free public meals from rescued food waste. Can be a little outdated
Buy Nothing Project - A list of hyper-local gift economy groups
Trash Nothing - A list of local groups where people give and request things that would otherwise be thrown away
Transition Network - A map of local groups seeking to build sustainable circular economies from the ground up, for people, not profits
Industrial Workers of the World - One big labor union for everybody, with local chapters across much of the world
Locations
Slingshot Collective’s Radical Contact List - An international catch-all list of projects
Intentional Community Directory - A map of communes, housing coops, land trusts, eco-villages, and similar communal living projects
Repair Cafés - A map of spaces where you can show up and have your broken items repaired for free (or volunteer to do so for others)
Sharing Spaces
Little Free Library’s Sharing Box Map - A map of little free libraries that have been converted into sharing spaces for food, personal care, or hygiene items
Freedges - A map of community refrigerators for sharing food
Little Free Pantries - A map of sharing boxes for non-perishable food
Can’t Find Anything?
None of these lists are comprehensive, and these aren’t the only resources available either. Try using a search engine or looking on social media with keywords like “[your location] mutual aid”
If you’ve looked everywhere you can think of but are still coming up short, you can DM me (not on anon) with the rough area where you live and I’ll try to find some stuff for you
Maybe you could start something yourself! Here are some resources: How to Form an Affinity Group, Small Town Organizing for Anarchists, resources for mutual aid groups from Mutual Aid Disaster Relief, seven steps to starting a Food Not Bombs group
If you don’t have even a single accomplice to start an affinity group with, there are still actions you can take on your own! Check out my #practical tag for ideas
