the most dogshit useless decimated search engine in the entire world:

[tahthetrickster]

“Kids shouldn’t learn about periods” what

what do you even mean. I got my period at 11 and know people who got it younger

[wonderwhump]

Of course kids should be taught about periods. What do you even mean. My daughter is ten and I talk openly about it with her. It’s natural and nothing to be ashamed of. I want her to feel safe to talk to me about anything.

possible career paths for me:

1. matching pearls in pairs for earrings

2. msn butterfly

that's it probably

tumblr used to be a high throughput reef ecosystem but then they banned titties and now we’re like an ecosystem in the abyssal sea floor just quietly chugging along, cycling through nutrients at a much slower rate.

then every once in a while a some huge news comes along like queendeath and it’s like a whale fall, we come crawling out of the woodwork like isopods, hagfish, and burrowing worms to feast on the memes for years

it’s been almost two years since destiel-putin-election and we still linger around those bones like limpets

omg did you guys hear the latest announcement

[husbanddaughter]

they literally deleted all existing reblogs of that post from existence btw<3

[freelance-fiend]

and theyre tryin to delete it all again

[prinxe-with-no-crown]

[Image description: the three images in the original post are marked as deleted for violating Tumblr's User guidelines. The image in the reblog is a screenshot of what the images in the post originally read, and are as follows:

First is a screenshot of a different tumblr post and a reblog of it. This transcript is minorly adapted for screenreaders. The original post reads: "being on this site is fucking crazy because u will see a post go around that's a little "too loud" about transfeminism for tumblrs insanely bigoted ass moderation team, and then by the evening u can go look at the same post and everyone on it will have been banned, and the next day a second post will go around pointing out the malicious and completely unreasonable bans that were executed by staff on the previous post and then by THAT evening those users will also have been banned and we're all expected to just sit there and pretend it isnt happening". The reblog reads: "i SERIOUSLY feel like tumblrs built in transfem eating machine has been getting way hungrier recently... like ive literally been on this account for a week and had at least 15 different mutuals get termed in that time. i refresh my dash and see peoples accounts go down in front of my eyes. i keep being like oh jeez i forgot to follow [mutual] on this blog? and it turns out that, no, she just got banned the second i turned my back. im literally seeing blogs get taken down that havent physically been up long enough to have possibly posted anything objectionable. im seeing "reblog to help me find my mutuals" posts going around where the op has already been nuked again. like come on".

Second is a screenshot of an email header. The subject line reads: "Tumblr Account Terminated".

Third is a screenshot of the beginning of a Wikipedia article. It reads: "The Streisand effect describes a situation where an attempt to hide, remove, or censor information results in the unintended consequence of the effort instead increasing public awareness of the information".

I need fat female characters in tv whose weight is inconsequential. It means nothing to the story.

She's fat and gets the guy and no one bats an eye.

She's fat and the hottest chick in the sorority and that's normal.

She's fat and an actress and she gets good roles.

She's fat and she's funny and she has character depth and growth.

She's fat and the main character and no one mentions her weight once.

I'm fat and my weight doesn't play a part in my day to day conversations, or plans, or friendships. Why can't I have that on tv?
