slightly controversial opinion: 

body hair positivity is utterly meaningless if it doesn’t include or center women of color and trans women 

women of color and trans women face the most egregious mockery of their body hair 

AND they’re consistently misgendered and denied their womanhood because of their body hair (especially if they’re trans and nonwhite) 

there are white women, including white wlw (especially gnc white wlw) who are shamed for their body hair but frankly their struggles with body hair are incomparable to how women of color + trans women (especially gnc wlwoc and trans woc) struggle daily with body hair 

trans women are assaulted and even killed if they don’t pass and are thus pressured to conform to femininity in ways cis women aren’t 

women of color are coercively masculinized and desexualized if they don’t conform to femininity and face a constant, exhausting stream of rejection from their communities and from white people because of body hair 

both trans women and woc are punished if they don’t painstakingly rid themselves of body hair or if they do choose to then they participate in painful, time-consuming, and usually expensive processes to get rid of body hair 

consider religion as well - jewish, muslim, hindu, and other nonwhite women who are religious have unique struggles with body hair as well

in essence, body hair positivity that doesn’t emphasize woc and trans women’s conflicts with body hair and how it relates to their sense of self/how others conceive of them is truly purposeless and only serves to cater to cis white sensibilities

End of fillings in sight as scientists find Alzheimer's drug makes teeth grow back

Fillings could be consigned to history after scientists discovered that a drug already trialled in Alzheimer's patients can encourage tooth regrowth and repair cavities.

Researchers at King’s College London found that the drug Tideglusib stimulates the stem cells contained in the pulp of teeth so that they generate new dentine – the mineralised material under the enamel.

Teeth already have the capability of regenerating dentine if the pulp inside the tooth becomes exposed through a trauma or infection, but can only naturally make a very thin layer, and not enough to fill the deep cavities caused by tooth decay.

But Tideglusib switches off an enzyme called GSK-3 which prevents dentine from carrying on forming.

Scientists showed it is possible to soak a small biodegradable sponge with the drug and insert it into a cavity, where it triggers the growth of dentine and repairs the damage within six weeks.

The tiny sponges are made out of collagen so they melt away over time, leaving only the repaired tooth.

That is by far the coolest thing I’ve heard this year.

‘Okay so guys we’re still working on that whole alzheimer’s thing, but along the way we kind of accidentally regrew everybody’s teeth.’

99% of scientific advances can be summed up as “We didn’t solve the problem we set out to solve but we did accidentally solve a bunch of other stuff”

TUMBLR PROF ANNOUNCEMENT: If you are trans or nonbinary and you are in the same situation as the student above, email your professors before class starts. I understand that it might be uncomfortable, but generally professors are absolutely happy to accommodate you. I know I always will be!

If your professor does not respond positively, contact the Dean or the campus LGBT+ resource center with a copy of the email and show them that you are concerned about gender discrimination in the classroom. 

[internbucky-deactivated20180804]

Also this is a link to the template I used to write this email, and I’ve seen another similar template going around, and this was extremely helpful.

friendly reminder that people you consider rays of sunshine can:

get pissed

experience negative emotions

cry

feel rebellious

be done with everyone’s shit

be too tired for anything

feel overwhelmed

need to be comforted

get furious and demand to be taken seriously

when I pressed a homophobic friend on whether he really thought I deserved less rights, he repeatedly protested that that wasn’t it, that it wasn’t me personally, just something he believed about gay people. That he was sorry that I was an accidental casualty. That he didn’t include me in what he thought of when he thought of The Gays because I’m not “visible”.

If you’re out to your homophobic friends and they’re still heavily homophobic, they either view you as deserving of being lesser (legally) or they’re consciously ignoring that you’re gay. Either way, get the fuck out of there.

[secretgaygentdanvers]

I want to point out that this is an issue that comes back to the Good Gays. Like Good Immigrants, there’s a certain ideal that closeminded people find acceptable as far as gay people in their community. You’ll recognise the list:

no pda

no handholding

no mentioning of LGBT rights

in brief, no “shoving it down our throats”

But if you follow all of those rules, if you decide to be out but not loud, keep yourself to yourself and carry on, you may think you’re safe, but you’re not.

You’re only safe until they are forced to remember that you’re gay. The only reason the Good Gay is not viewed as a threat by homophobes is because the Good Gay is not viewed as gay at all.

Has anyone theorized yet if Loki and shuri would be friends if they met

[portraitoftheoddity]

Loki: Hasn’t it chafed at you, knowing that the throne will never be yours?

Shuri: Pffff. No. 

Loki: …Why not?

Shuri: I have much better things to do than deal with council bickering and ceremony. *gestures to whole lab*

Loki: *frowning* And you do not feel lesser? overshadowed? disrespected?

Shuri: *grinning* Let me show you this video I took…
