For those who donāt know, Elon Musk has recently been directing his assholery towards Wikipedia ā calling them āWokepediaā due to the amount they spend on Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion, and calling for people to stop giving them money āuntil they restore balance to their editing authorityā ā, now is a great time to consider donating to Wikipedia!
Keep your messaging simple:
āTrump fired everyone in charge of airplane safety, and a week later planes started crashing into each other.ā
Thatās it. Thatās the messaging. Donāt get bogged down disputing Trumpās false claims. Just blame him, in short and repeatable sentences.
Trump removed bird safety regulations in his first term and now bird flu is killing so many laying hens that eggs are $5 a carton
Trump removed food safety standards his first term and now we have recalls every few weeks
Trump cut the subsidies for the solar farms under construction so now electricity costs more
Trump disbanded the pandemic response team and we now we have bird flu and tuberculosis outbreaks
Not to venerate the halcyon and bygone days of yore, but it used to be that declaring that girls are too fragile and delicate to ever possibly compete with the boys or ever be as good as them at anything was rightly denounced as the kind of raging sexisim that made you sound like the flatly written villain of a teenybopper movie.
i can't come sorry im too busy walking in circles like an anxious dog
hugs <3
ohā¦ my god iām going to cry
It is so so important to show that queer people have always existed and are allowed to live long, happy lives. Young queer peopleāespecially those in conservative areasāneed to know that being queer is not a death sentence. Despite the many struggles we have faced, throughout history there have always been queer lives filled with joy and love. and you will find yours.
Beautifully, Iāve just discovered the photographer has all of these images available on their website to view:

Text: decoupling pregnancy from femininity means accurate and more inclusive language and treatment, but it also allows cis women to refuse motherhood without refusing womanhood, which is great for feminism and terrifying for misogyny.
āTHIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIS. As a sterile cis woman who doesnāt want to have children anyway I feel this is every ounce of my being. āDefine womanā types tend to do so in a way that excludes me too, so I got to stand with my trans sisters.
i keep seeing misinformation about this, so: queerplatonic relationships do not have a set definition. the name comes from the idea that it's "queering" the platonic relationship, tailoring it to the individual relationships' own desires. it isn't necessarily romance lite, but it also isn't necessarily whatever definition you want to impose on it. the point of queering the platonic relationship is to break away from strict allonormative views on friendship, romance, and sex, not to make a new categorical box to fit in.
the answer to "what is a qpr?" is "whatever you want it to be." sometimes that is romance lite. sometimes it's a deeply committed friendship. sometimes it's friends who have a sexual relationship. sometimes it's based on an entirely different mode of attraction. sometimes it's fluid and impossible to put into words. it's whatever you want it to be. it's queer.

El negro Matapacos (black cop killer)Ā was a symbol of fight and hope in the social protests we had last year. He was a stray who marched with the people and defended them from authorities.Ā
He is Chileās most beloved protest dog.
Ā Ā Here are some murals honoring him from different cities across the country
they even made a statue
and the government via the police pigs have tried destroying murals, symbols, even that giant matapacos statue THREE TIMES but his spirit carries on.Ā
transgender but in a problematic way that cant be sanitized by teens who are trying to reinvent the hayes code
Asexual but in a really gross way that approves of kink at pride and all sorts of problematic fiction.
Nonbinary but in a weird, loud, and playful way that might make assimilation at the expense of their own community harder for the cis gays.
Queer and unapologetic and taking up space with my queerness.
