Can we please normalize and be normal about people going their entire life without sex, kissing, marriage, romance, a partner, dating and anything adjecent. Thank you for your participation.

I’m tired of this complex queer goyim have where they think all lgbt people were persecuted by the Nazis as if there aren’t very famously queer Nazis and collaborators, and as if queer German Christians couldn’t get out of it by signing a fucking affidavit and/or getting lavender married, which was not a grace afforded to Jews or Roma

[peterdyckmancampbell]

like man Charlotte von Mahlsdorf did a ton for the east Berlin queer community but she also very much did directly get her first ladies’ clothes and jewels by raiding (presumably largely cishet) Jews’ homes after they were deported.

guess who lived, not just past 1945, but to see the new millennium?

[peterdyckmancampbell]

like yeah living in an authoritarian police state sucks!!! being forced to live in hiding sucks!! but also these people were not systematically targeted on remotely the same scale as Jews and Roma, and they were given ways to get out of it.

it’s an oppression fantasy white queer goyim have where they have it JUST AS BAD!!!!!!! as the Most Oppressed Groups and I just have to laugh at this point bc it’s that or start mauling

[rootless-cosmopolitan]

I don’t want to play “who had it worst” but I think people forget that queer people were also not systematically targeted for murder in Nazi occupied territories, while Jews/Roma were hunted down like dogs to the last one. Like, the WWII Resistance Museum in Amsterdam explicitly states that there is no record of any Dutch queer person deported, arrested, or murdered by the Nazis for their sexuality. Meanwhile 75% of Dutch Jews were murdered in the holocaust - the highest percentage in Western Europe.

Not only that, but people truly don’t understand that Nazism is a very, VERY specific brand of fascism, which blames everything on the evil influence of the Jew. The Jews created communism and let the inferior Slavs fall under the spell of “Bolshevism.” The Jews created disgusting modern art and new radical academic fields, which is why those all had to go. And yes, the Jews were somehow responsible for spreading the “degeneracy” of homosexuality and transgenderism, too. The throbbing heart of Nazism is anti-Judaism. If you ignore this, or lessen it, or “everyone suffered the same” it, you are no longer talking about Nazism.

Let’s say you wanted to glue fabric to wood, but what do you use? What about glass to paper? This to That lets you choose two things you want to glue and lists what types of glue is best. (Because people have a need to glue things to other things!)

This is an incredibly awesome site.  Go check it out!

Whhhhaaaaaattt!???

[techfails]

EVERYONE NEEDS TO KNOW ABOUT THIS

This is one of the first websites I was told about in props. It also has information about the toxicity, adhere time, price, and other stuff about the glues.

[geekhyena]

Useful for cosplayers and DIY!

[backofthebookshelf]

THIS IS MY FAVORITE WEBSITE

I consider it my duty as a librarian to make sure everyone knows about it.

“Unfinished Painting” — Keith Haring

This painting was left intentionally incomplete. Haring began it when he was dying due to complications from AIDS, and knew he didn’t have much time left. The piece represents the incomplete lives of him and many others, lost to AIDS during the crisis.

“AIDS Memorial Quilt” — Multiple

This quilt is over 50 tons heavy, and one of, if not the, largest pieces of community folk art. Many people who died of AIDS did not receive funerals, due to social stigma and many funeral homes refusing to handle the deceased’s remains, so this was one of the only ways their lives could be celebrated. Each panel was created in recognition of someone who died due to AIDS, typically by that person’s loved ones.

“Untitled” (Portrait of Ross in L.A.) — Felix Gonzalez-Torres

This pile of candy weighs the same amount as an average adult man. Visitors are encouraged to take some of the candy. As they do so, the pile of candy weighs less and less. This is a commentary on how AIDS deteriorates the body of those who have it. Gonzalez-Torres’ partner, Ross Laycock, had died due to AIDS-related complications the same year.

The SF Gay Men's Chorus

This photo was taken in 1993. The men in white are the surviving original members. Every man in black is standing in for an original member who lost their lives to AIDS.

“Electric Fan (Feel it Motherfuckers); Only Unclaimed Item from the Stephen Earabino Estate, 1997” — John Boskovich

After the death of his lover, Stephen Earabino, from AIDS, Boskovich discovered that his family had completely cleared his room, including Boskovich’s own possessions, save for this fan. An entire person, existence and relationship had been erased, just like so many lives during the AIDS crisis. Boskovich encased the fan in Plexiglass, but added cutouts so that its air may be felt by the viewer, almost like an exhalation. In a sense, restoring Earabino’s breath.

“Blue” — Derek Jarman

This was Jarman’s final feature film, released four months before his death from AIDS-related complications. These complications had left him visually impaired, able to only see in shades of blue. This film consists of a single shot of a saturated blue color, as the soundtrack to the film described Jarman’s life through narration, intercut with the adventures of Blue, a humanization of the color blue. The film's final moments consist of a set of repeated names: “John. Daniel. Howard. Graham. Terry. Paul". These are the names of former lovers and friends of Jarman who had died due to AIDS.

“Untitled” (Perfect Lovers) — Felix Gonzalez-Torres

Created by the same man who created the previous untitled piece, this piece was also inspired by his lover’s deterioration and death due to AIDS. This piece consists of two perfectly alike clocks. Over the course of time, one of the clocks will fall out of sync with the other.

In a letter written to his lover about the piece, before his lover’s passing, Gonzalez-Tourres wrote, “Don't be afraid of the clocks, they are our time, the time has been so generous to us. We imprinted time with the sweet taste of victory. We conquered fate by meeting at a certain time in a certain space. We are a product of the time, therefore we give back credit were it is due: time. We are synchronized, now forever. I love you.”

Yes yes i know love is love. But they are still killing CHILDREN. over this.

Edit: muted this post, simply bc im sick of the transphobes and homophobes in the comments, and they're pissing me off ❤️

[pencildragons]

bro i LOVE indigenous fusion music i love it when indigenous people take traditional practices and language and apply them in new cool ways i love the slow decay and decolonisation of the modern music industry

[pencildragons]

I WILL !!! I WILL DO THAT

some of my favourite indigenous artists, in no particular order:

Inuit artists:

the jerry cans (esp their album Inuusiq)

beatrice deer

twin flames

Māori artists:

jordyn with a why

Indigenous australian artists:

tilly tjala thomas (i particularly love ngai yurlku nhiina)

kardajala kirridarra (srlsly check out ngajabu (Grandmother's Song))

i've also heard good things abt Baker Boy, but i haven't checked out his stuff yet

[columbidaae]

Another one for Inuit artists is Piqsiq! Two sisters who’ve been doing traditional throat singing since they were kids. They make some really gorgeous, eerie, atmospheric stuff. Highly recommend watching this video of them performing live a cappella using a looping machine, because they might be the coolest people on the planet actually

(Jo March nearly in tears voice) women,,,,

[aconissa]

For anyone into North Asian and Central Asian folk music, there's this incredible Siberian folk-pop band called Otyken! The group is mostly women and they're from multiple indigenous groups in Siberia, with songs being sung in their range of different languages. They're so much fun and their music videos are amazing!

[alqemizzy]

i'll go ahead and recommend The Halluci Nation (formerly known as A Tribe Called Red), an EDM group from First Nations Ontario that do really cool fusions of First Nations music with dubstep, moombahton, and hip hop.

[emeraldraccoon478]

I really really really appreciate people who share videos on posts like these, because almost without a doubt every time I love the music but I’ve never got the spoons to click on links and look through a bunch of music or worse google the artist I always end up too overwhelmed to start and I hate that

[morathicain]

Haven't seen Belle Sisoski here yet so here we go: she's the current Artist of Year for BURO impact Awards. She's from Malaysia and knows how to play an insane amount of ethnic instruments and mixes them with her own voice. She does covers and her own songs, mixes ethnic instruments with Techno and shows the process. And she's also a live DJ at 19!

And one of her own:

Oh and of course there's also the HU and Bloodywood for people who like more rock and metal mixed in:

[upthewitchypunx]

1876 is a Pow Wow punk rock band from Portland, Oregon

1876

[tieflingkisser]

Alien Weaponry is an awesome Māori metal band

Darkaside is a Papuan metal band

Shepherds Reign is a Samoan metal band

[vonclosen]

Ts'msyen (pacific northwest coast) black metal

I am loving the:

Bi-pan solidarity

Lesbian-ace solidarity

And the

NB-trans solidarity!

[the-based-brit]

Anyway, pansexuality is both biphobic and transphobic, thus pan people don't belong in the LGBT community.

Asexuals aren't inherently LGBT and don't belong, either (unless they also happen to experience same-sex attraction or gender dysphoria). Some aces are also pretty homophobic.

As for nonbinaries...well, I'm nb-neutral, but I do find it odd how no one identified as nonbinary before it was cool.

[ellowynthenotking]

Anyone who says stuff like the-based-brit did is just trying to tear the community apart because we're weaker when we're separate groups.

We are stronger as a united front!

Subs are so fun to play with. All you have to do is hint at what you might do, or back them into a corner with a look, or grab their wrist in a certain way and they’re a wide-eyed mess.
