My favorite was on the week this happened, watching Sabrina after Sabrina post their POV of the event. And then the Miku posted. Oh, the yelling and the slightly different angles.

The Emperor's Reason

[queerilyqueer]

This is GORGEOUS holy crap

[sevdahalma]

when I say “Let me ask my husband”, one (or both) of these things is taking place:

1. I am in a loving, happy relationship where we value and respect each other’s opinion

2. I am using this as an excuse to get out of something I don’t want to do (sorry habibi)

what is not happening here: I am being oppressed

kids deserve so much more respect and it turns out that saying that is a great way to locate the horrible people in any community <3

[infectiouspiss]

you'll say something as simple as "no child deserves to be hit" and people will crawl out of the woodwork to explain why they should be allowed to beat a 6 year old for spilling some water

[infectiouspiss]

you'll say "i think it's weird that adults literally have control over when children are allowed to use the bathroom" and up pops a teacher to say that when they're not shouting at the kids they teach, they're trying to stop them from hiding in the bathrooms

you'll say "i think children shouldn't be forced to eat food they hate" and here comes someone who feeds their kids plain rice and boiled chicken (while eating a nicely seasoned stirfry) claiming that it's okay actually and kids shouldn't be allowed to taste things

you'll say "i think kids should have bodily autonomy" and in comes someone who pierced their babies ears before it was even 24 hours old, frothing at the mouth because their kid wanted a haircut and thats somehow an insult

[infectiouspiss]

children are an oppressed class and everyone should be looking back at their own childhoods and making sure they don't ever make a child feel the same way they felt.

[homunculus-argument]

I know I couldn't handle having kids but if I was left in charge of some, I'd take them to the park to feed ducks. Not bread though, you shouldn't feed that to ducks. We're feeding them lettuce. Let the ducks going apeshit over lettuce show the kids that lettuce is actually awesome. When they go home, their parents are baffled by the fact that the kids are now willingly eating salad. In the most horribly animalistic fucked up way possible.

[queerilyqueer]

I’ve worked with a lot of kids in my life and this is 1000% the right approach to children.

The two things that matter with kids are:

1) Are they safe

2) Are they making sure those around them are safe (i.e. not hurting anyone, being as self-aware as they are able)

If those two things are true, who cares if they are eating lettuce off the floor like rabid ducks?

That sounds like fun.

Thanks tumblr user i-suggest-vore. I can always count on you for theological literacy wait is there a different reason you like this story

[homunculus-argument]

Trying to take care of yourself when you're sick is so annoying. Like you know you should probably eat something and you're trying to question yourself on what you'd want to eat, and the only answer is your inner voice of dying Jane Austen going "I desire nothing but death". well ok you dramatic sickly bitch do you want that with garlic or hot sauce.

After Trans People, Trump Now Erasing Bisexual People From Stonewall National Monument

[goodbigonebad]

When I say that biphobia/monosexism and transphobia are two sides of the same coin, this is what I mean. They are intrinsically linked. This is why the transgender and bisexual communities are historically intertwined. This is why bisexuals fought to include both the B and the T in LGBT and had our organizations defunded during the 80s/90s in response - and to this day, funding for bisexual organizations is still nonexistent. Additionally, far more transgender/non-binary people identify as bisexual or bi+ than straight, gay, or lesbian.

They want the BT gone because to bigots, our existence complicates their strict views of gender and sexuality. We need to work together now more than ever and stop pandering to transphobes and monosexists who would like us to stop existing and to never have spoken up for our rights in the first place.

At least there are trees.

When I was younger, I thought trees were a big stupid waste of time except insofar as they provide us with oxygen.

Now, when I am sad and on the edge of something worse than sad, I think, "At least there are trees."

[cringecorp]

they say you can't pour from an empty cup but i've been doing it my whole life and aside from all of these mysterious ailments it's working out great for me

I’m starting to think some of y’all haven’t actually felt the rain on your skin… which is crazy because no one else can feel it for you
