Those 18 states are: Alabama, Arkansas, Arizona, California, Florida, Georgia, Iowa, Idaho, Kansas, Louisiana, Mississippi, North Carolina, Nevada, Oklahoma, South Carolina, Tennessee, Texas and Utah.

If you live in one of these palces please go as many extra miles to stay safe as u can as new cases are growing significantly

[midnight-revolucion]

If you live in any of these States, I advise using Johns Hopkins University of Medicine’s Coronavirus Resource Center to keep an eye on Critical Trends in your state (spiking infection rate, spiking death count) with the country and state map.

@SaraSoueidan: Dear men, This is how you greet a veiled Muslim woman (a Hijabi). Hand on your chest, not offering to shake hers. 🙋

so prominent BLM activist deray mckesson just retweeted this which i think is super cool for various reasons :)))

[a-duck-among-humans]

I did not know this. Is it OK for a non Muslim woman to shake hands with a Hijabi? Or do we do the hand on chest thing too?@popcanpoli

[popcanpoli]

hey so i don’t wear a hijab and i’m not muslim so i definitely don’t have the authority to answer this question (or any other questions i’ve been getting abt this) (i’m just a lil canadian politics blog i didn’t expect this to blow up lol) 

BUT here are some tweets by the original tweeter (who wears a hijab) that clarify some things

one: 

two:

three: 

[animatedamerican]

This is also good if you’re meeting an Orthodox Jewish person who’s not the same gender as you!  Not all Orthodox Jews hold by this restriction, and many consider it a permissible exception to shake hands in a formal greeting context; I’d guess this is parallel to Ms. Soueidan’s last-quoted tweet above.  And as that says, the sensible thing is to wait for initiation.

learned something new. awesome

absolutely no one is talking about the state of policing in the US enough right now. We are genuinely in a police state and it is insane how little people seem to care. I was at a protest and the most violent thing protesters did was throw water bottles at police (who were in Full Riot Gear) and set off some fireworks and the cops beat the shit out of anyone they could get their hands on and stole mass amounts of bikes and teargassed everyone. They beat my roommate and gave them a broken arm and threw them down a hill. Like. That is not normal. I think im just frustrated that this is seen as normal because the US is so fucked. anyway venmo @chicagobikefund to help get new bikes for people who got them stolen from cops and consider donating to chicago bail funds bc lots of people got arrested.

Let’s not forget that there are government officials saying that black and brown kids should go back to school first in all this

TRANSCRIPT:

If you actually have a heart and a soul, you won’t scroll past this video.

*sigh*

Betsy DeVos, someone that our Cheeto in chief just elected as the head of education basically, pretty much just stated that when schools open this fall, that an estimated 0.02% of children will die from COVID 19. I’m not sure if that's just children or just people total in the school system, but bear with me.

That is 14,000 kids that could die from COVID 19. Even just one child is too many. Trump has also threatened that if schools are not opened by November all their funding will be cut. Teachers also have to write death letters to send to parents for when a child has died due to COVID 19.

Please, I beg of you, boost the hell out of this video. This is ridiculous

hiya! I figured id make an informational post about the little things ive noticed about being on testosterone that I found weren’t talked about a lot when I was starting my transition and even before when I was doing my research. I think that trans sexual health is an extremely important part of trans peoples lives (and that doesnt necessarily mean sex) seeing as the physical changes that happen during transition are often foreign to us. Sexual health keeps us healthy and comfortable in our bodies, so do your best to stay attentive to your body’s changes! As always, consult your doctor if you feel the need to. These are only tips ive learned from transitioning myself and from my doctor when I asked about certain things.

Hey this isn’t necessarily something for HRT. But rather for top surgery for those considering it, most every surgeon and endocrinologist I’ve met (save for the ones I’m working with currently) doesn’t mention this and trans dudes who have gone through top surgery sometimes don’t even know about it, but your ti🅱️🅱️ies? They make hormones. Lots of them. When you get top surgery you’re removing a primary maker of hormones from your body and it’ll throw you through a loop, and for anywhere from a few days to a couple months after the surgery your hormones are gonna be WACK. This will usually cause a post-surgery depression that a lot of trans men sometimes confuse with regret for taking this step in their transition and it’ll throw them into an identity crisis, so for those planning on taking that step, just remember that weird ass sadness you’re gonna feel is just your hormones being like “hey wHAT the FUCK” and you made the right decision for you!!

[aevios]

Can confirm that bottom growth is a real and painful thing. If you’re the kind of person who wears skinny jeans regularly (looking at u fashionable goth/punk trans ppl), here’s a tip for your first few months of T: don’t.

Bottom growth will be overly sensitive and stick out of the hood more than usual, and anytime the inside of ur jeans rubs against it it will a) hurt and b) make u horny.

This can be a problem in general, but especially if u have bottom dysphoria and being reminded of ur junk can make u dysphoric, and/or if ur ace like me and being horny can be a very confusing and annoying experience (I know this is not every aces experience but I had never really had a sex drive or arousal before T and it was very distressing at first. Still ace tho)

Also re: top surgery, the first time I saw my chest post-op my brain flipped and I got so dizzy I nearly passed out. This is also relatively normal and okay. I think my brain just kind of freaked out seeing my body so different from what we were used to and also oh yeah with a big scar running across it. Its okay, that doesn’t mean you regret it either. I think sometimes ur brain just needs a minute to catch up and realize ‘oh wait this isn’t a traumatic injury this is what my chest is supposed to look like’. Once I had seen my chest a few times and let my brain get used to it I was absolutely thrilled and loved it (and still do). I also had a panic attack the night before my surgery because I was afraid of the anesthesia. Again, doesnt mean I made the wrong decision.

I think a lot of trans ppl don’t know that surgery can just be an emotionally intense experience, and yeah can also mess with ur hormones a bit (another consequence of both hormonal stuff and the stress of surgery is I got really bad acne for awhile after surgery) and so you might feel all kinds of weird or stressed directly before or after. It’s okay. Make sure u have supportive ppl around u to take care of u, and wait until ur body has had a bit of time to heal and renormalize before u start panicing over if u made the right choice or not. You’ll probably be sleeping for most of the first week anyway. Give ur body and ur nerves a break for a bit.

this is a bit of an oddball one, but one thing i wasn’t expecting was itchy pubes. as your body hair gets thicker your hair follicles will be like “hey um” and get itchy, but for me it wasn’t particularly bad anywhere except my pubic hair. but like, there was a period of a couple months where i occasionally had to cancel plans because i had to scratch constantly.

[creaturey]

pres. trump sent federal troops into portland to squash the protests and they shot someone in the head with an impact round last night and shattered his skull. his blood is still on the sidewalk outside the federal courthouse. they are not like local cops and they are NOT fucking around. they carry ARs with live ammo and they are merciless. i am very sincerely scared that federal forces are going to instigate a kent state type situation by killing protesters as an example sometime between now & november and i am very scared it’s going to be here

[creaturey]

Video of the protester who was shot being carried away by medics while bleeding everywhere (obvious TW). He is alive but was in critical condition when he arrived at the hospital & needed extensive facial + skull reconstruction surgery. At the time they shot him he was standing on the sidewalk with both hands holding a boombox above his head Video of a federal officer kneeling on someone while he has a seizure; they did not allow medics to help him. There is word that this person may have died but afaik that is still unconfirmed Video of federal officers chasing & assaulting medics tending to an unresponsive protester Video of 15 feds forcibly arresting a disabled trans person and taking away their service dog for the crime of writing on the federally owned sidewalk in washable sidewalk chalk

Full live tweet thread of the night (7/11/20) with a lot more video footage, especially of the absolutely ludicrous amounts of tear gas they used

sorry for the long post—i am not sure how much national coverage this is getting and i really want people to know what’s going on here. they are behaving like an occupying army & treating citizens like enemy combatants

Do not let them make you numb.

[black-to-the-bones-deactivated2]

He was an activist who inspired millions to fight for their rights. He knew what was wrong with our country and risked his life to help his people achieve equality.  In the society where black were treated like animal he did everything possible to change this. His brave soul, his will and courage changed the history of America , changed the people. He made us believe we can win this war. He payed for it with his life. He will always be remembered.

[thecheshirecass-deactivated2018]

Respecting his memory also means acknowledging that his fight is far from over, black people are facing the same issues that ha birth to the Black Panthers, and that the FBI is basically trying to launch COINTELPRO 2.0 against BLM and other black activists. Hampton should be more than a history lesson, he should be a rallying point.

[whatbigotspost]

Hey, quick question, how loud do the dog whistles have to get before everyone finally calls him what he is??

[whatbigotspost]

Also this:

People are concerned that an $88 baseball sold on the Trump Organization's merch page could be a secret message to white supremacists

The latest in series of alleged dog whistles and outright white nationalist messages from Trumpworld comes in the form of an $88 baseball.

[masseffectdoctor]

A very important time to also remind everyone what America First means historically as well with the political cartoon from Dr. Seuss. They're a known fascist party with direct link to and in full support of Nazism in American History. This is a calculated move

[whatbigotspost]

Thank you for this reminder!

I also wanted to chime in again on this post bc there’s quite a bit of “he’s just not that smart” or “that’s a reach” about the 1st tweet in the notes. I have a couple of replies:

Firstly, Trump’s Twitter acct is notoriously NOT run exclusively by him so it’s entirely possible he was unaware of the character counts, etc. But that’s hardly the point here...if his closest advisors and idk what to call them...handlers? are fucking Nazis then our president is a fucking Nazi 🤷‍♀️

Secondly, whether or not he knows origins and meanings of 14/88 shit (I’d guess he DOES but I digress) his spoken rhetoric is pretty consistently overtly white supremacist in nature.

[the-real-numbers-deactivated202]

Dan Scavino may be the tweet writer. He's shared anti-Semitic/neo-nazi content from Trump's account in the past. He also rts infowars and various conspiracy theories.

The President's official tweets are now written by a man who regularly promotes fake stories on Twitter

Dan Scavino has shared articles from websites that claim 9/11 was an 'inside job', Michelle Obama is a man and Beyonce is funded by the CIA

[overdramatics]

also, its incredibly important to be super wary of dogwhistles. dont dismiss them, even if you think that they’re just a coincidence. thats how neo-nazis slip under the radar, thats how accumulate power and recruit/unify other neo-nazis. thats the point of dogwhistles- to be innocuous enough that they can be passed off as “just a coincidence.” take this kind of this really seriously.

[saint-batrick]

he fucking knows, okay?

Donald Trump's ex-wife once said Trump kept a book of Hitler's speeches by his bed

"If, I had these speeches, and I am not saying that I do, I would never read them."

[chelonianmobile]

Even if he didn’t, the fact that he was missing them would prove he was too dumb to be a semi-effective President. It’s the kind of thing a non-Nazi politician would screen for.

Now that the Terror Bill has been signed into law and will take effect in 15 days, a little reminder for my PH mutuals:

Set your social media to private

Do a clean up of your public posts

Block everyone of your friends who have voiced pro-government sentiments. You don’t know who will sell you out.

Do a check of your facebook groups. If you’re part of anti-admin groups, make sure it’s legit and not a fake group used to redtag.

Increase your email security

Stop signing petitions vs terror bill on change.org as this is what they’re using to redtag (remember the influx of fake accounts? Yeah)

Instead, send emails to your representatives using a vpn

Have your lawyer’s number on standby

Be aware of your rights (i will post a refresher here later on)

Look out for your friends and family
