not your hero. @servetolive - Tumblr Blog

You cannot live alone on the fantasies you feed to your mind, eventually you have to touch your life for real, assess and analyze your habits, understand your character, try not to hate yourself for your character as it was shaped when you were very young by circumstances outside of you, and begin learning how to cope with your character, how to build habits that work for you, finish small projects, finish big projects, expose yourself to more uncomfortable situations, assess why you want to leave that friendship before you leave it, raise your anxiety levels on purpose, so that you can grow, raise your work load on purpose, so that you can grow, so that you can build resilience, so that your life expands, and can be experienced by you in full and in reality

do other countries do the whole “leaving furniture you want gone on the curb for other people to just grab” or is that an american thing

catvincent

The Dutch do it and it's called The King's Gift, but when Brits do it, taking the stuff is actually a crime called, wait for it, Theft By Finding.

bud you disabled comments

allthingswhumpyandangsty

I disabled my comments section because it was full of bots trying to scam people

how someone sets their boundaries has absolutely nothing to do with censorship.

censorship is when someone tries to control other people what they can or can’t create and consume.

censorship is not about a random person disabling their own comments section for whatever reason. censorship is not about people blocking other people on social media as their way of setting boundaries and curating their internet experience. censorship is not about disrespecting other people’s boundaries and censorship is not about tolerating it when other people disrespect you or your boundaries.

so your comment is entirely irrelevant to the point. I say censorship is bad. you say but the sky is not green.

friendly reminder:

My posting anything regarding the Jewish faith, people or history does not mean I support Israel or Zionism in any way. It really bothers me that the two concepts appear to be mutually inclusive on the internet. Jewish people and topics are allowed to exist outside of conversations about Israel, just like Muslim people and culture are allowed to exist outside of discussions about terrorism/sharia and black people are allowed to exist outside of concepts of slavery/disenfranchisement/racism.

I’m just now finding out Anne Frank was bi??? OMG

luanna801

Yeah okay, those edits were made by her dad, a cishet person - and also her dad, a Holocaust survivor, who would have been brutally aware that when the diary was first published in freakin’ 1947, had he included anything which people could use to demonize his daughter or tar her as some kind of “pervert”, it would prevent the message he was trying to send about the horrors of the Holocaust and the heroism of his daughter from being properly understood and accepted the way he hoped.

That isn’t fair. It isn’t just. But it is reality. If Otto Frank had let this be included in the published version, there’s a large chance the homophobic backlash would have prevented the book from reaching the audience it did and spreading the message it needed to. It was NINETEEN. FORTY. SEVEN. The Holocaust had ended TWO YEARS AGO. The acceptance of LGBT identities was basically nonexistent. Otto Frank made a decision based on the time and place he was living in, about what the world at that time was and wasn’t ready to accept.

Let me say this as bluntly as I can - I am a bisexual Jewish girl and I would have made the same decision Otto Frank did. Making sure Anne Frank was unambiguously seen as sympathic and heroic was more important. Making sure people weren’t sidetracked from the main issue of the Holocaust was more important. He shouldn’t have had to make that decision, without doubt. Anne Frank’s sexuality (however she would have identified in modern terms) shouldn’t be considered relevant to her status as a hero or a sympathetic victim. But in 1947, it undoubtedly would have been.

Otto Frank survived Auschwitz and lost his entire family (a wife and two teenage daughters) to the horrors of the Holocaust. He hoped that publishing his daughter’s diary would spread awareness and sympathy for the victims of the Holocaust. If he had to make sacrifices to do that - well frankly, so fucking be it. I don’t know who alive today has the right to judge him.

Let’s also look at this thread from a queer Jewish person who brings up the fact that ANNE FRANK EDITED HER DIARY HERSELF

rosebramblewolf

i think its also important to note that like. hmm.

im bisexual and i had experiences like that, kissing other girls at sleepovers specifically, and it not only took me another half a decade to start identifying as bi, but all the girls i did that with grew up to be straight women.

having those kinds of feelings and experiences at that age may mean nothing about your sexual orientation.

Im begging queer goyim to shut the fuck up about the holocaust lmao

@andreareventon deserved every digit of that ratio. That's like if someone discovered that Harriet Tubman was a lesbian and got mad at contemporary historians for excluding that information. Like dude it was the fucking 1800s and it was slavery. There were more important things. Also, 💯 on not going overboard with making AF a queer icon based on her diary entries. She was 15 years old.

God I need white/western European-American/Christian descendent queers to just stfu about historical queerness in other cultures unless they've actually studied THAT particular feature. If you are judging all queer experiences solely under your own limited 21st century post-BLM/Me Too intellectualism, you are doing colonialism. You are not helping.
