I was gonna make a joke about how I say âI need to go the circus againâ the way people used to say they need to go to the sea to balance their humors. But I realized the circus balances humors too
how I balance my humors

I donât believe such a thing exists
I was mistaken
we need to step away from viewing marriage as inherently romantic, or the primary goal of romance. marriage is a legal contract we use to create important ties--financial, medical, next-of-kin, mediating shared property and parental rights. the details vary a lot based on where you are and what paperwork you sign. which is not very romantic! but it does have many real-world effects on our ability to share our lives with our partners.
first and foremost, marriage is a legal right we use to build and protect our families, whatever that family may look like
also, there are other legal options that might fit your relationship better than marriage! Next-of-kin, power-of-attorney, will-and-testament, joint property ownership--these are all ways to create legal ties and share resources with someone you view as family. you can tailor your choices to suit the needs of your specific relationship. relationships aren't one-size-fits-all, and neither are your options for legal commitment.
Additionally,
Clearly comic strip artists have a shared trauma of overdue library books
"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.
tumblr is basically a gay bar in a mental institute

They stole my labor for profit. They did a capitalism to me on a communism meme. I can't decide if that's hilarious or infuriating.
Hey so I still see people utterly baffled by how religious fundies (still a majority in America and moreso its senate) react on certain issues so uhhh is it actually not common knowledge what the antichrist is all about? You guys know his defining characteristic is ending war, right? That heâs foretold to unite the world under his leadership by preaching global peace and solving basically every single problem in the world? So you know when you try to talk to these people about equality and togetherness they literally believe thatâs what makes you an agent of the devil right???
im sorry what. so. ok im assuming they think that this is all like. to gain trust and then take over or something? because.
Yes, heâs called the âantichristâ because heâs an imposter Jesus and the majority of the world will love him when he ends all class divides and erases all borders, creating one world government with him at the top. Thatâs the ânew world orderâ theyâre terrified of. But they think heâll oppress true Christian believers who see through his ruse, which is why theyâre constantly looking for signs that theyâre being discriminated against and panic when they lose any control over government. This is why they fear diversity, immigration, socialized anything. The less religious right are pretty clearly still running on the same logic; they might drop some of the spiritual lore but this is where they get the idea that all progressivism leads to the ârealâ fascism. Some believe the antichrist isnât a literal person either but just that entire set of beliefs, so everyone protesting against war and trying to feed the hungry is a *collective* antichrist.
So from the notes it turns out people are MUCH less familiar with all this than I suspected and thatâs honestly kind of alarming, guys, you should really really pay attention to things that affect so much of this country. No these are absolutely not obscure or fringe beliefs, these are MAINSTREAM with megachurches, Trump voters, the GOP and a vast proportion of the wealthy. Alex Jones and multiple Fox News hosts openly believe word for word what I described here.
And yeah as several people pointed out it isnât even explicitly in the bible, but something some radicals pieced together in maybe only the last century. My uncles all believe it to the letter and they all believe itâs what the Bible is âsupposedâ to be communicating.
A lot of people are also confused as to why they would believe the peace and unity are villainous things and what the difference even is then between the âantichristâ and actual Jesus, which brings me to another thing I realize some folks CRITICALLY overlook about American Christianity, which is that they do not believe in good or bad deeds. They believe the same deed can be right or wrong strictly according to whether or not itâs performed by a believer with Godâs stamp of approval. Like, they KNOW the Satanic Church and Witch Covens do community service or donate to cancer research and they are not confused, surprised, bitter or embarrassed by that at all. Itâs exactly what theyâre taught to expect. They believe the forces of Satan do primarily âgoodâ things so people will think heâs just as good or better than God. So if a pastor heals a sick child with a prayer then thatâs good, but if a âwitchâ heals the same sick child with âmagicâ (not something I believe exists, but they do) then thatâs a false miracle from the devil and the child was better off dying because now everyone involved is a sinner who deserves hell. Theyâre taught to view you as a ridiculous fool if you donât grasp this difference, and every single argument you might make is a part of the satanic trickery.
After all, they think our entire existence on this Earth is an insignificant speck in the grand scheme of things. The suffering in the world isnât a bug to them, but a feature that God set up to test everyoneâs worthiness, teach them lessons and filter out the faithless, so they actively do not believe itâs always morally right in itself to help people or save lives. Rather, certain people are just intended to suffer and die and it can be MORE wrong to help them.
Sorry to put this big ass thing on your dashboards again but Iâm downright awestruck by the notes. Thereâs 15,500 of them at the time of this reblog and almost zero disagreement, just hundreds of people expressing absolute terror that they didnât realize they were living under the thumb of a doomsday cult, and Iâm really really sorry for that because I really did not expect to be the bearer of that news to so many. If you havenât looked at the notes for yourself though, theyâre pretty eye opening even to me, especially the next most common type of response on it:
âŠ.And something Iâve heard before but still neglected to mention:
âŠ..so thatâs all pretty nightmarish confirmation of how pervasive this mindset is around here, but you know, if the majority of reactions to this information have been either âwhat the fuck are you talking about?â or âyeah I WAS taught this and Iâm better now,â maybe thatâs a sign that itâs slowly but consistently fading with every generation?
I actually wasnât raised religious AT ALL, and it was still impossible for me to not hear this shit constantly in the 80âČs and 90âČs from basically everyone outside my immediate family. Itâd even crop up on television and radio stations that werenât even supposed to be christian-oriented. Just boom, thereâs an evangelist suddenly talking about how Only God is Allowed to End War and Satan Takes the Form of Kindness, like these were just normal banal perspectives to toss in between a relationship advice segment and the latest movie reviews. Iâm really proud of every person saying they escaped from that indoctrination and actually feel much better and more hopeful about the whole thing. It might not be fixed completely in our lifetimes but clearly it is fixable.
I was going full wait this canât be real but uhhh this article provides a good summary of this phenomenon
How fundamentalist Christians who believe in the apocalyptic myth of âthe raptureâ could be shaping Trumpâs agenda â and American life
