Hey ya'll! Some of this stuff will be about books, and others just about stuff I think and sometimes I'll just vent about my random stuff. (P.S. This user supports lgbtq+ and black lives matter and is a feminist.) she/her

it’s been said thousands of times before but ur white before ur lgbt and i think a lot of you forget that, like, if you are a white person you will always have power over poc regardless of u being gay or trans, ur whiteness is a pedestal that u will never get to forfeit even if u have a pride flag, and bc of that u will never be the target of systemic / general racism and therefore have no say in conversations on what is and isn’t racist, you are not effected, you donot have the history of subjugation that poc do, cishet or not you are white and that shapes how you navigate thru the world regarding racism, and if you cannot understand that and refuse to unlearn bigoted behavior you will never be an ally to people of color, being apart of a marginalized group does not suddenly make you a good person / a person who cannot be racist, but a lot of you think it does

i love how a lot of queer ppl have the same experience of toning down ur identities/labels for cishet people so tag this what you actually label yourself v.s what you tell cishet people

[supercrazybooknerd]

Actual: genderfluid?????? Lesbian?? greyromantic greysexual

Cishet: aroace

as a queer kid who can't go to Pride events, it feels so good to see the cast of Heartstopper go to a parade, covered in flags, jumping and screaming, and flipping off homophobes. it's so comforting to see them like that. i can't emphasize how much it means to me that the characters i love and adore are played by actors like them.

this is one of christians’ favorite things to ignore. quite possibly their all-time favorite thing to ignore.

Prompt (92)

"I want to punch you in the face." The villain seethed.

The hero gave a dramatic cry. "That's homphobic. And during pride month too, how dreadful!"

[im-fostering-it292]

REblog if you are Asexual, support Asexuals, or spend most of your time actually thinking about Superheroes.

[the-desi-aro-ace]

IT'S FINALLY JUNE!!!!

So here are a few tips to support aro and ace people during pride month :D

Give them all your money

Share your credit card information with them (make sure to include the correct PIN)

Help them invade Denmark (Bonus points if you're Danish)

This isn't a comprehensive list and every aspec person's needs are different, so feel free to add to this <3

[aro-manita-muscaria]

Well!

it's approximated that 1% of the global population is ace

and if you take a look at denmark's population:

you can see there are more of us (aces) than there are danish people. Therefore it was decided that we should invade denmark to set up an asexual nation free from aphobia and sexual normativity.

Are you in?

[transmorolians]

fuck yeah

[supercrazybooknerd]

Happy Pride Month!!

Friendly reminder that the Red White and Royal Blue movie has been cast and Heartstopper has been renewed for two more seasons :)

Feel free to add on any more lgbtq+ media news!

US SUICIDE PREVENTION HOTLINE IS CHANGING ITS NUMBER

Taking effect July 2022, the US Suicide Prevention Hotline will change from 800-273-8255 to the three digit code of 988. Especially with families and communities reeling from back to back tragedies, it is super important to share this information!

Repeat: Starting July 2022, the US Suicide Prevention Hotline will be 988

[gardenvarietydespair]

Important add-ons, though, as someone who’s done policy work on this: 

It’s July 16, not just the start of July.

988 can not only be used as the suicide hotline, but for any sort of mental health or substance use crisis situation. As opposed to 911, the goal of 988 is that when dispatch is necessary, you’ll be met with a trained crisis response team rather than the police. The police will only be involved if there is an immediate threat to safety, which has almost never occurred in pilot programs - in one of the most well-known, Denver STAR, (which a lot of y’all seem to be familiar with) the police has actually never been called for backup. We’re hoping that this is going to get more individuals directed towards help rather than a prison cell. 

Uhm yeah I’ll add more stuff if I can think of anything.

[jadedaceofspades]

Thank you for the added information. Reblog this version as well, folkz.

Must a movie have a plot?? Is it not enough to watch an overpowered witch go on an insane murder spree to try and get her kids back while a magic man and a lesbian try and stop her?

[giftedkidburnout-culture-is]

gkbc is being in like middle school and asking your friend to answer those quiz questions like ‘how would your friends describe you in one word’ and they always say ‘smart’. in your family everyone decides you’re the ‘smart one’. and one day you realise that you don’t know who you are if you’re not smart, you don’t know if you’re brave or kind or responsible or funny, cause you never got to have other qualities
