Oh, so when YOU grab a Danish for a quick snack, it's a guilt-free, tasty little treat. But when I, Grendel,

tl;dr: all "algorithmically" pushed stuff on a newsfeed is mostly ads. nothing that's really surprising form this vulture article, but it is dismal and makes me grateful for one website where you only see things from people you follow WITHOUT horrible short-form video content

The Feed Is Fake

What if every viral song, movie, meme, influencer, and celebrity drama in recent memory was the result of a stealth marketing campaign?

given the current climate this pride especially i feel i must mention that i love my trans friends, i stand with trans people in the fight against transphobic legislation and those who would enforce it, and this blog is not a good place for you to be if you do not vibe with that

yeah yeah rainbow capitalism is bad and whatever but like. when I was a child, being pro gay was not the popular or lucrative choice. I'm happy that times have changed.

[storm-of-feathers]

I miss rainbow capitalism. I do. I miss when it felt like public opinion was still pro gay. I understand it was always an empty gesture, but it mattered in a sense of knowing how socially acceptable being queer is. If that makes sense.

every single person you know has something in their life and past that is probably worth collapsing to the ground in an uncontrollably sobbing heap over, so be nice to each other and tell good jokes

Bird #74 - the lilac-breasted roller (LC)

Rather lazy and messy, since otherwise I won't have time to finish the flags in June :C

I didn't think there would be a bird for the trans flag (blue AND pink, two uncommon colours?) but lo and behold! They do also have greens and browns on their back, so not perfect but very close.

Rollers are named for their territorial and courtship displays, where they literally roll in their flight! Another great thing is there's no sexual dimorphism, so females have the bright colours too. Pride for all!

Bird #76 - the purple-breasted cotinga (LC) [male plumage]

4th pride bird! You can find this bird scattered around the Amazon.

The male's blue colour comes from air pockets in their feathers - these scatter light, kinda like how the sky appears blue! Go check out photos - I had to desaturate the colour because it was burning my eyes lol. Males also make a rattling sound with their wings during flight. In contrast, the females are brown with a laced pattern.

Am I just pretentious or is this not weird advice

The first pride was a riot, more specifically a riot against police violence. Trans women of colour like Marsha P. Johnson paved the way for the celebration of pride today. You cannot celebrate your pride this month, or any month if you aren’t also supporting Black Lives Matter and the riots going on against police violence right now. Us white LGBTQ+ need to stand up for our black siblings and their rights, their struggles. We need to amplify their voices and show any support we can.Hey! Better yet, reblog this version:

This is one of the most powerful images I have ever seen, and I will reblog it every single time because every single time it brings tears to my eyes.
