I also will never afford a home and fucking hate rich people

Getting to do things like casually damaging a piece of history is exactly why I hate rich people so yeah, i do fucking care because it sets a precedent

[anxious-gh0stie]

Exactly. We also just let Hugh Hefner have himself buried next to her body just because he was rich as well. We just let rich people defile this poor woman’s life and death, just like they defile the rest of the world.

You don’t have to care about Marylin Monroe or her dress or anything, but stop telling people to not be upset about rich people and the media constantly disrespecting this poor dead woman. Let her have peace, my god, she was also fucking harassed when she was alive, like just stop touching her grave and her things. Don’t fuck with any deceased person’s graves or personal belongings, that’s just messed up. And certainly, stop parading dead peoples things around just because they were famous

I’m watching that documentary “Before Stonewall” about gay history pre-1969, and uncovered something which I think is interesting.

The documentary includes a brief clip of a 1954 televised newscast about the rise of homosexuality. The host of the program interviewed psychologists, a police officer, and one “known homosexual”. The “known homosexual” is 22 years old. He identifies himself as Curtis White, which is a pseudonym; his name is actually Dale Olson.

So I tracked down the newscast. According to what I can find, Dale Olson may have been the first gay man to appear openly on television and defend his sexual orientation. He explains that there’s nothing wrong with him mentally and he’s never been arrested. When asked whether he’d take a cure if it existed, he says no. When asked whether his family knows he’s gay, he says that they didn’t up until tonight, but he guesses they’re going to find out, and he’ll probably be fired from his job as well. So of course the host is like …why are you doing this interview then? and Dale Olson, cool as cucumber pie, says “I think that this way I can be a little useful to someone besides myself.”

1954. 22 years old. Balls of pure titanium.

Despite the pseudonym, Dale’s boss did indeed recognize him from the TV program, and he was promptly fired the next day. He wrote into ONE magazine six months later to reassure readers that he had gotten a new job at a higher salary.

Curious about what became of him, I looked into his life a little further. It turns out that he ultimately became a very successful publicity agent. He promoted the Rocky movies and Superman. Not only that, but get this: Dale represented Rock Hudson, and he was the person who convinced him to disclose that he had AIDS! He wrote the statement Rock read. And as we know, Rock Hudson’s disclosure had a very significant effect on the national conversation about AIDS in the U.S.

It appears that no one has made the connection between Dale Olson the publicity agent instrumental in the AIDS debate and Dale Olson the 22-year-old first openly gay man on TV. So I thought I’d make it. For Pride month, an unsung gay hero.

the umbrella academy is right. the only time it’s acceptable to deadname someone is if you missed the fact that they came out as trans in the first place because you’d been kidnapped by the children your father replaced you with.

after yet another jackass insists on calling data "it" instead of "him," riker puts up a sign on the bridge that says "if you misgender data i will fucking kill you"

picard lets him.

We Need Help

tw; homophobia

i am having to remake this post because my last post has died out, and sadly we are still in desperate need of help. for background for those who dont know me, my name is j, i am a 23 year old transguy living with my wife (they are also lgbt, and lives with a neurological disorder among others)

we just received our notice that our rent will be raising from 895 to 1050 in september. we are on fixed income and stay afloat with financial aid, but this is a huge blow because we were under the impression it would be cheaper then this, but they are tacking on utilities. on top of that, we are currently waiting the 10 days for our ebt card, because the first one they sent never arrived, and so we have been going without food despite being paid out on the 10th. this is really bad for the reasons above, since food instability is a major trigger.

as some of you know, my wife and i moved to az from our home in wa exactly a year ago to help her disabled mom who was asking for help. june is the anniversary of the month we got kicked out and lived homeless until we got this apartment, when her mother determined she no longer could accept our relationship because we are gay. it is a complex situation but traumatizing for my partner and the reason i say so is because we have no one to help us with transportation to food bank, extra help, anything. we are entirely isolated here.

with the money we will have by then from school funds to pay our rent and the last post, we would be able to live here for another full year if we somehow made a total of 850. I don’t expect the full amount and am working on other means right now, but if any one could help, spare even a few cents, or reblog, it would really help. if half of my followers sent a dollar i would have more than enough not to get kicked out, so it really doesnt need to be much to mean a lot. it is really devastating to have to see this happen again after having tried to build a sense of stability again, so it really matters a lot to me everyone who has cared, even reached out, and thank you if you got this far.

feel free to msg me if theres anything else you need to know. spaces so no shadow ban, bold to make this easier to read.

cannot believe twitter libs are whining that protesting outside Kavanaugh's house is iNcOnSiDeRaTe To HiS nEiGhBoRs. if you live nextdoor to Brett fucking Kavanaugh and you're not shitting on his porch or at least throwing eggs at his house every day you're wasting your life.

It was, in fact, his neighbors who organized the protest.
