Dare to Dream

I don't do much here. Maybe some day! I'm nonbinary (they/them). I am a legal adult but will not specify my age because I don't feel comfortable doing that.

HOW TO GET YOUR ACCOUNT BACK FROM RANDOM NIGHTMARE SURPRISE TERMINATION!!!!!!!!!!!

I woke up on sunday morning to find that my whole account had been terminated out of the blue. VERY DISTRESSING!!! if this has just happened to you, YOU CAN GET YOUR ACCOUNT RESTORED. the best part is, everything remains intact! your messages, asks, followers, posts, etc. don't fret!! they restored my account only a day after it had been terminated. usually, it takes one to two weeks for a response. HERE'S WHAT I DID!!!

it's important that you send a SUPPORT TICKET. don't randomly email them!!! go to https://www.tumblr.com/support and choose "terminated account" as your reason.

include the email of the account that got terminated. this makes it easier for them to recover it! if you can't send it from that email, just include it in the message.

include the following: to the best of your knowledge, you have re-read the site rules and you haven't broken any site guidelines. state how important your account is to you, and stress how thankful you are for their help in recovering it. BE POLITE. EVEN IF YOU'RE UPSET OR PISSED OFF!!!! it significantly ups your chances of being listened to. I included the phrase "I'm sure you understand the importance of this" which is corporatespeak for "FIX THIS OR SO HELP ME GOD" and that seemed to get their attention.

you can also @ support on tumblr with the issue, and @ them on another site (e.g. twitter). there's a chance they'll see and respond quicker! cover all your options. the reddit for tumblr account termination is no longer active so don't bother with that.

if they don't respond within a few days, reply to the confirmation email they sent after you sent in your request. follow up! ask for updates! reiterate the urgency of the situation! make sure you're not responding to an address with "noreply" in it!

REALLY HOPE THIS HELPS!!!! all is not lost you just gotta be STERN AND POLITE. it's terrifying to have your entire account vanish overnight but there is always hope okay. love you good luck

UPDATE: I had to do this whole thing AGAIN because my art blog ALSO got terminated out of the blue and they got back to me the very next day. this shit works!!!! I think the main factor is following up by replying to their confirmation email because as soon as I did that they got back to me.

[julie-su]

Can confirm this is how I tackled it when this blog was randomly terminated a while back; I had to do this before. I got my whole blog back, which is good, because I think this one is over a decade old by now.

Very long odds but if you are in New York (specifically Long Island area), keep an eye out for a barn owl. Her name is Nebula and she's a lost education animal. She's imprinted on people so she might attempt to approach people. If spotted, please don't try to catch her yourself. Contact the Sweetbriar Nature Center  at 631-979-6344.

Can I have ONE gay ship that doesn't end with one or both of them dead?!

"The trannies should be able to piss in whatever toilet they want and change their bodies however they want. Why is it my business if some chick has a dick or a guy has a pie? I'm not a trannie or a fag so I don't care, just give 'em the medicine they need."

"This is an LGBT safe space. Of COURSE I fully support individuals who identify as transgender and their right to self-determination! I just think that transitioning is a very serious choice and should be heavily regulated. And there could be a lot of harm in exposing cis children to such topics, so we should be really careful about when it is appropriate to mention trans issues or have too much trans visibility."

One of the above statements is Problematic and the other is slightly annoying. If we disagree on which is which then working together for a better future is going to get really fucking difficult.

Someone who says they don't care if dudes wear dresses and makeup is a better ally than someone who says they're a safe space for women and non-binary people. I am not joking.

yeah I went to a gay bar recently with my husband tumblr user beemovieerotica, and a VERY confused capital S Southerner straight man in cargo shorts and a trucker hat showed up

apparently he (who through my drunken memory I remember only as Earl) liked some woman, and she told him that he wasn't cultured enough and needed to attend his first drag show (she also flaked on him)

Now I'm reasonably androgynous and was wearing makeup, a short leather skirt, and black heeled boots, but still when this guy came up to me when I was standing off alone and asked "So. Do you come here often?" with a very earnest expression, I thought. Surely not. This guy doesn't think I'm a straight woman does he????

Anyway I start talking with this guy and he has no idea what the fuck is going on but he is just a very kind and earnest dude and asked a lot of questions (while asking if it was alright if he asked those questions). I track down my husband and friends and I'm like y'all. We need to make sure that Earl has a Good Fucking Time tonight.

Man was completely out of his depth. At one point they put on a puppy auction to raise money for Pride, that started with a 6 ft drag queen in all her glory leading a leather pup out on a leash to the tune of that damned RSPCA "in the arms of the angels" song

We look at Earl. Nervous. He squints, laughs, and then goes "I was wondering why people were dressed like that!" He turned to me and asked "So they're like dogs?" And I said yeah pretty much. And he just chuckled and went "Yeah I thought so with the tails! Never seen this before!"

When the first drag king came out, Earl looked at me wide eyed and went "There's a dude version too?!" And I said yeah they're called drag kings. And he said, low, "Drag kings."

During one of the queens performances, he frowned, shook his head and told me, "Your legs are better than hers." in a tone that implied he thought there was some travesty taking place and I should also be getting paid

When he found out I was there with my husband (and that I am not a woman) he profusely apologized and said "I'm so sorry, it's dark in here and I thought you were a hot chick! I wouldn't have said nothing if I knew you had a husband, I'm so sorry about that."

When beemovie invited me to the dance floor with him later and I still had a drink in my hand, Earl said "Oh don't worry about that I can hold your drink, you get on out there and shake your ass with your husband!" Then before we left, Earl bought me drinks for "Putting up with me all night and answering everything. Y'all helped me have a great time tonight."

like. You gotta recognize there's going to people who have never had interacted outside of their of their own community. This includes you. And just because your community is familiar with all the right vocabulary and how to correctly say something, it doesn't mean they're actually going to support you. If someone like Earl shows up, confused and out of their depth but kind and curious and earnest, you gotta have patience and truck through the small things, so when he goes back to his friends and his coworkers and they snicker asking how the drag show was, he can genuinely talk about how included we tried to make him feel and that he had a great time

The person matters more than the language

I will fuckin never not reblog this.

[sister-lucifer]

reblog and share immediately

[swiftrunnerfelidae]

Don't just spread it around. Take action. If you are affected by this, challenge it. Get your ballot resubmitted. If you aren't, take action on their behalf. Help them find who to call, the steps to take, the paperwork to file. Exposure isn't going to stop this problem - action is.

Why was I being such a petulant toddler

[prince-aly]

I mean... in all fairness you were kidnapped and about to be tortured. I feel like that's a valid reason.

As someone who has escaped the US, I have to beg people to stop fucking around with "If Trump wins I am leaving." This is the most ignorant of stances. You are the frog thinking they can wait until the pot "really starts to boil" to get out. It has taken many international flights, a pile of money, and almost a full year of work to make our escape from the US happen. If shit gets really bad, you aren't getting out. Do you really think Canada is just going to open its doors and let 15 million US refugees drive through its border? You better get all your documents sorted with apostille. Don't know what that is? Fucking figure it out because you need it. Get your FBI background check started NOW it takes months. What's going to happen when they get 10 times the volume of requests? Get your job offer, the family member who can apply for reunification, or a large amount of liquid cash sorted that you will need for your application. Figure out what country you are going to and start making a plan. Did you know to apply for a long-term stay visa for most countries you have to apply from inside the US and wait there to receive it? And you have to apply in person at the embassy or consulate. It takes weeks to months. It takes ages to move to another country even if you bring nothing but a suitcase and your paperwork. It takes a day for Trump to shut the door and make it so you can't leave. Why do you think so many Jews never made it out of Germany? Either they could not leave because they did not have the means to or they waited too long and the trap was shut. I am so incredibly sorry for my fellow Americans who can't leave. I know all the arguments that someone has to stay and fight. I deeply applaud those who can do that. I can't do that. This message is for the people naively thinking that if Trump wins again they can just leave. If you are staying and he wins you better prepare yourself to be one of those who fights because you won't be leaving. Wake up.

dean SHOULD have had a vial of Cas’ grace you’re so right

yeah? I mean we still have the handprint and the rib tatts but. could have been more? they could've come up with vague enough excuse and we'd have had a field day nonetheless

[prince-aly]

Dean wears a vial of Castiel's grace and Castiel wears the ring early series Dean used to wear (either as a ring or on a necklace).

Torn between wanting Trump to go to jail where he can't hurt anyone and forcing him to do community serivce for like 100k+ hours. Like... the latter, picking up trash by the side of the road. Would make him so fucking steamed.

[prince-aly]

Can we do both? I mean, he does have at least 3 more trials coming up. 🤞

We were so close to a pride month conviction 😭😭😭

[prince-aly]

We got it a couple of days early so we can celebrate during all of pride month. Plus bonus days. I say we celebrate for 34 days in a row and just extendprode month!

[knightsickness]

if saw came out in 2017 adam would have shot to the top of the tumblr sexyman ranks. we lost a generation smh

i mean i suppose it depends how you define sexyman but i’d argue even to this day hes disproportionately popular one half of the fandoms biggest ship and frequently characterised as like seductive 25 year old boy ingenue dirtbag twink. thats maybe post-sexyman fandom reality. also theres plenty of skinny edgy anime fanart of the saw characters c. 2006 if you dig for it i’d argue thats proto-sexyman
