I’m feeling really annoyed that Jackson and Maggie’s relationship has been playing out in the elevator. Like I’m not totally opposed to them as a couple but just because Derek is gone doesn’t mean that Merideth and Derek’s places aren’t sacred and I hate that they’re trying to “replace” the romantic focus of the show in that way. Just find your own place, please.

i.e. why when you or someone else gets stabbed or impaled, you should leave the object in the wound until medical help arrives.
THIS. RIGHT HERE. This is an amazing example!!
If you take the thing out, they’re going to bleed a lot more.
SO. DONT.
News Flash from the Medical Help ™ — we don’t touch it either! Unless the object they’re impaled with is literally too big to fit in the ambulance, We. Don’t. Touch. The. Thing.
The only people qualified to Take-The-Thing-Out are surgeons. End of story.
Okay, but for the love of God, please, PLEASE, if you did, if you panicked and took the thing out…. DON’T…. PUT IT BACK IN.
Or else, congratulations, you just stabbed them AGAIN. I reeeeeally shouldn’t have to say this guys, but I do.
THIS. IS. SO. IMPORTANT. FOR. PEOPLE. TO. UNDERSTAND
my kind of feminism
LMAOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
@ my fellow adults who use tumblr a lot:
can you PLEASE put your age in your about/sidebar and make sure it’s accessible on mobile. imo if you’re an adult esp 20+ it’s a little weird that you wouldn’t have your age readily available on your blog. if you’re reading this now and you don’t have your age listed, please rectify that. i feel like teenagers get lured into talking to adults in fandom/lgbt spaces that they may not have intentionally sought out because they think they’re talking to other teenagers, and this can lead to a lot of other – much more insidious –problems
I know other people have already refuted this, but seeing the original message still going around I’d like to point out just a couple of reasons why this request - while well intentioned - misses a lot of key points:
1. This is working under the assumption that tumblr is a space solely (or at least primarily) for teenagers/kids and that simply isn’t the case. Historically the creation of fanfiction, fanvids, fanart, etc. has been done by people in their twenties and older. Think about how many years it takes to learn how to craft a good story. Think about what you need to pull something like a con together. That person with the Skill you admire? There’s a very good chance they’re an adult. It used to be that kids pretended to be 18+ because they knew online fan communities were adult spaces. I’m not sure when this switch happened, but it needs to stop.
2. It is not “a little weird” that people don’t put their age on their blog. I have mine because I’m comfortable sharing it and my fan identity/irl identity are already really conflated, but a lot of people - most people - want to keep personal information to themselves. There’s nothing wrong with that and insisting that we reveal that information is all kinds of wrong. Can you ask someone their age? Certainly! Maybe they’ll tell you, maybe they won’t, but regardless you are not entitled to that information.
3. The children on here? They are not my responsibility. If kids/teens are worried about who they’re talking to then they should either a) be careful about who they interact with or b) not use this website. If they’re too young to understand this then they’re too young to be online without parental supervision. Now, how can a teen be careful about who they interact with? Check the person’s blog. See the kind of content they post. See if there are any hints about their age (mentions of school, job, birthdays, etc.) - or again, just ask! I’ve had plenty of people on here decide they only want certain types of interaction with me after discovering my age and that’s fine. But it’s not my job to monitor everyone else’s internet use.
4. Finally, I find the language here to be rather concerning. “A little weird,” teenagers are “lured,” leading to things that are “much more insidious”… all of this, whether intentionally or not, frames anyone 20+ as intrinsically predatory. It also takes agency away from anyone under 18. Teenagers aren’t “lured” into talking to me, they make that decision on their own. They are their own person capable of making their own decisions, gathering information before making that decision (like asking someone’s age) or, if they can’t do these two steps then again, they should not be online. We’ve come right back to point #1: this is not your space. It’s our space. I’m not some trespasser here who only gets to stay provided that I cater to those younger than me. If anything, based on how much of online content is geared towards adults, kids should be working under the assumption that they are speaking to an adult until proven otherwise, especially on websites like tumblr that cater to all ages. Don’t assume you’re talking to another teenager. Don’t project onto a person and then get mad when you find out you’re wrong. That’s not them tricking you, that’s you failing to take responsibility for yourself.
You want to know someone’s age? Ask, and then work with the answer you’re given. But someone failing to give you private information up front isn’t weird or predatory or insidious. The quicker everyone realizes that the better off we’ll all be.
These are very, very good points. I came into fandom when it was HIGHLY unusual for a younger teenager to be included in fandom spaces, and that was not that long ago. This sudden shift into fandom being for youth only is really disheartening. Who do you think organizes the cons you like? Chances are, it’s not a 18-year-old high school student, but a 40 year old project manager and a bunch of geeky IT professionals who love the fandom as much as anyone else. Fandom is a shared space. Everyone has to share the responsibility of keeping it safe.
Omg. Learn your own online literacy and social skills. Practice safe discourse with people you trust. I could put that I’m 15 on my blog, but that wouldn’t make it true. The fact that some teens think that would be enough credibility to believe I’m their peer just because I say so and that people don’t lie on the internet, especially if they’re predators, is what should scare the hell person who wrote this original post and any kid who thinks like them. Have some damn sense.
This place is majority grown-ass adults, and we don’t owe you our personal information. Perhaps that’s a model you should follow. Don’t give every stranger on the internet access to you, your feelings, and your stats.
There. Free life lesson. You’re fucking welcome.
dear white followers
poc isn’t an adjective - i’m not a “people of colour blogger”, i’m a blogger of colour
don’t say poc if you mean a specific group of people. black lives matter isn’t about all poc. it’s about black people
you don’t need to tell us about every instance of racism you see. if someone’s said something racist about us & we weren’t there, sure, we probably do want to know. but if it’s along the lines of “can you believe this person was racist”? yeah. we can. we don’t need you to remind us
if you have a friend of colour, please don’t expect them to give you the rundown on every racialised issue you see. i’m black. that doesn’t mean i’m automatically an expert on how the modern beauty industry is influenced by india’s colonial history. i don’t speak for all poc - ask someone who’s affected by it
remember that talking about race is tiring. wanting to be more aware of it is great, but discussing exactly how white supremacy affects our lives is frankly depressing. please respect that we don’t always want to do that
if you ever say you’ve “got an [ethnicity] friend” so you can’t be racist to try and sidestep being genuinely called out for racism, i’m stealing your friend. you’re tokenising & they deserve better
poc aren’t a monolith & individual ethnicities can trivialise the racism they don’t face. just because you’ve heard a brown person say the n word or a black person be anti-asian doesn’t mean it’s suddenly okay
talking about our relationship with whiteness ≠ “making everything about race” & anyone who says that from now on owes me £150
this is okay to reblog even (especially) if you’re white
Tessa Virtue and Scott Moir’s reactions finding out that they just won the Olympic Gold Medal in Ice Dance.
reblog if you hate nazis and don’t think they should speak on college campuses
reblog if you hate nazis and don’t think they should speak.
Reblog if you hate nazis.
Reboot if you support Jewish people, Rroma people, LGBT people, and all other people targeted in the past and present by Nazis.
Now that’s how you ally. That’s putting it on the line and showing solidarity. That’s how you use your white privilege for good.

It’s easily one of the cleanest examples of intersectional feminism I’ve seen in a minute. It’s the polar opposite of white feminism, where white women are concerned primarily with the wellbeing and advancement of other white women. If more white men and women stood up and demanded basic fairness instead of just talking about it—and not just in Hollywood—we might really begin to impact racism and close the pay gap that always gets inflicted upon black people in most careers.
There are still good people in this world. If you can’t find one be one.
this makes me happy
reasons why draco malfoy should’ve had a redemption arc
not wanting to kill dumbledore
lowering his wand and about to join the order
took care of luna lovegood while she in his house
not turning harry in when he was captured
gutted by the death of his friend
throwing harry his wand
was literally a fucking CHILD
reasons why Snape shouldn’t have gotten a redemption arc
- bullied children
- was a death eater
- held a grudge against someone for over 10 years and took it out on his son
- crawled over the dead body of his crushes husband to hold her dead body while her infant son was crying alone in his bed
- was not a child lol
i mean, snape very much died and harry choosing to forgive him does not constitute a redemption arc because it had nothing to do with snape and everything to do with harry and how harry chose to heal
and draco grew up to be a better man than his father and raised his son better than his father raised him so I don’t see how that’s not a redemption
who’s gonna tell this straighty….
I feel like we’re due for more food discourse

Do you pinky swear? Yeah, I fucking pinky swear.
It’s not just men who think they are entitled to sex or a woman’s body.
Consent is needed every time, no matter what the relationship is
shes terrifying,
What the actual fuck?
Wow she’s scary.
You’re no feminist if this doesn’t bother you, that you don’t see the rape vibes here. Women can and do rape men. They use force, they use words, they can manipulate- just like men do. And it is just as wrong.
No means no, friends. Gender does not matter. No. Means. No.
You don’t need a reason to not want sex. No is a complete sentence.
