why are you here?

A good thread on whether “queer” is a slur and if it should be used or not.

[quarterinthequeerjar]

“If I am unashamed of being queer, you do not get to give that word BACK to the fuckwits who made it a slur.”

you do not get to give that word BACK to the fuckwits who made it a slur

Holy motherfucking shit. Don’t fucking come at me about Queer is a slur. I FUCKING KNOW IT IS. It was hurled at me like a fucking spear all through my youth. I know it’s a god damn slur. And it’s mine. You don’t get to take it away from me because you can’t take also away the scars it gave me while I was standing in front of my younger queer siblings in this community.

always, always reblog this one.

If my enemy swings a sword at me and I take that sword away from them, it’s my sword now. And the person telling me I can’t use it because it belongs to my enemy and I have to give it back to them sounds quite a bit like an enemy themselves.

Kinda ironic that when women gain some power and leverage,they went straight doing the very thing they say they wouldn't do and to just started being hateful against men,while parading for equality,peace and all love.

Well That's brainwashing for ya really loving,it was so easy to use something they have against themselves and make them think it's their own idea

they really became the very thing they sought to destroy.Dumb humans always one step away from freedom but can't even found the damn knob and twist it.

Instead of actually going after the one's who's benefiting from all of this and keeping them distracted THEY JUST WENT and go back to square one,how stupid is that. very typical,for a bunch humans.

Really hate the fact as children we're taught to never lie but we literally have courses and jobs that teaches and works us to lie

Even the aliens are confused wtf we're doing

[writing-prompt-s]

You, a supervillain, answer a knock at your door, only to find your superhero nemesis shivering, bleeding, scared, and slightly dazed (as if drugged). They appear to have been assaulted. The hero mumbles “…didn’t know where else to go…” before collapsing into your arms.

Is adding hotsauce on Holy water counts as extra fire damage when doing an exorcism?

Writing or Comic Prompt,

Your company hired a new staff member, and you keep getting this feeling you know who they are. As time passes and friendships grown, you get your answer one night visiting their house.

I hate the fact i don't have the skill/talent/nor ability to write/draw this into existence

It's wild to me that people compliment in high regards vidoes that doesn't waste time or don't clickbait in informational videos instead of it being the standard norm.

48hr tumblr blackout proposal

tumblr mobile has seadily become near unusable these past few updates. not just from a user experience perspective (which is important enough in itself) but also from an accessibility perspective.

examples include the new way the image viewer works (if you can call it "working"), the tumblr live button replacing the profile button, and that newly created blogs will be forced to have their main dashboard tab be the 'for you' page.

the demands of the protest would be along the lines of:

reverse the recent image viewer update

scrap the new users 'for you' page default setting

let us turn off tumblr live indefinitely

increase efforts against spam / porn bots

make reporting abuse and hate speech as easy as reporting as reporting spam

let us go nuts show nuts again... for real this time

commit to improving usability and accessibility, and listening to users!

(suggestions welcome!)

to protest against these usability issues, and inspired by the recent reddit blackout, i propose a 48 hour blackout (where you don't use tumblr at all). preferably of both mobile and web (since web has problems too) but mobile is the focus here.

I suggest the 48 hours between the 30th of June to the end of the 1st of July.

this marks the end of pride month (for the "queerest place on the internet") and the start of disability month (since accessibility is a massive issue here).

tumblr office is in San Francisco, USA, so the times and dates will be calculated using their time zone (PDT).

you can find out the times and dates for your timezone here.

i can't afford to blaze this post so please spread it around as much as possible! protests only work if significant numbers show up!

[mangedog]

tumblr rejected the blaze campaigns for this post because they know it would hurt them. let's make this an indefinite blackout - it's the best way to get results.

(so the blackout would be from June 30th onwards)
