Your Neighborhood Disaster

Sup. I'm Emmet, nonbinary, agender specifically, they/them pronouns. I'm pan and demisexual, as well as polyamorous, but I am NOT looking for romance or sex stuff on this website. Follow me if you care. I won't post consistently. I swear and I'm generally cringy. Also you probably won't get a lot of whatever you follow me for.

hey hey hey reblog if you think bisexuals are a part of the lgbtq+ community

like if you think they aren’t

[yourneighborhooddisaster]

hey do frogs have teeth

unrelated question is tsuyu confirmed to have teeth

[froppy-sexual]

Yes most frogs have teeth they’re just pretty small and only on their upper jaw

Also yes Tsu has teeth

But I will admit this picture took my a solid three minutes to find

[yourneighborhooddisaster]

so what you're saying is tsuyu has teeth, but they're just pretty small and only on her upper jaw

[yourneighborhooddisaster]

hey do frogs have teeth

unrelated question is tsuyu confirmed to have teeth

[yourneighborhooddisaster]

sometimes i wish i could disintegrate my teeth in my mouth and use the remaining bone dust as tumbling sand so i could polish little shiny pebbles to give to birds as offerings

how y'all's days going

[thefallenbibliophilequote]

Y'know what, fuck this bullshit. I need to know y'all are actually against it.

Reblog this if you will NOT use or support Post+.

I hope to make @staff see how that is total bullshit. Tumblr will die without writers/creators.

[katiebug586]

Hey, everyone! FYI, I will NOT be charging you subscriptions, fuck Post+ and everyone who decides to lock their own blogs under a paywall.

If you’re going to do so, use Patron, not Tumblr.

[postplus-protest]

POST PLUS IS COMING, WHETHER YOU WANT IT OR NOT!

Despite the fancy survey, changes to the UI and TOS reveal we’re getting the service in the future whether we want it or not. Obviously, Post+ is a terrible idea that is trying to bank revenue on user content. Unlike patreon or onlyfans, tumblr’s primary focus is on FAN content. The legality of this is NOT in the users favor and as the new tumblr TOS states, said users will be entirely liable for whatever legal matters arise.

SO WHAT ARE WE DOING?

Besides filling out the survey, it’s time to show tumblr we mean business and show our displeasure by hitting them where it hurts.

Ad revenue.

We’re proposing a 24 hour log off as phase one of this protest.

WHEN IS THE PROTEST?

AUGUST 6th, 2021        12 am Eastern Time (US)          5 am Greenwich Mean Time          6 am Central European Time          8 am Moscow Standard Time          1 pm Australian Western Time          2 pm Japan Standard Time          3:30 pm Australian Central Time          4 pm Australian Eastern Time AUGUST 5th, 2021          11 pm Mountain Time (US)            9 pm Pacific Time (US)

THE END TIME IS 24 HOURS FROM START TIME!!!

So no posting, no queues, no likes, and no reblogs!

WHAT IF I CAN’T/WHAT ELSE CAN I DO?

Like this post and share it AS MANY TIMES AS POSSIBLE. Use the hashtags #tumblrlogoff2021 or #postplusprotest on ANY and ALL social media.

WILL THIS WORK?

Maybe, maybe not. It’s an attempt at doing SOMETHING.

[yourneighborhooddisaster]

sorry guys, but i can't deal with this on top of my shit so imma be a lot more sporadic even though my hiatus was going to end

also have a wonderful day/night lovelies! fuck post plus!!! :)

[kelssiel]

poll on what kills tumblr+

we bully off every dumbass who tries it

disney sues tumblr out of existence

the irs comes knocking

the inevitable leak of users’ data

some yet unknown stupidity

tag this with your prediction!

[noodles-07]

we all start using the same credit card 

[marauders4evr]

Abled Person: Hey man, can you hold this wad of $2,000 and this one penny for me while I open my wallet?

Disabled Person: YOU COMPLETE AND UTTER FOOL!

The United States Government:

(Watch how many people don’t get this.)

[marauders4evr]

#raises hand #i dont understand #please explain? 

In order for disabled people to receive any sort of financial assistant for their housing, food, bills, medical supplies, etc., they cannot ever have more than $2,000 of resources to their name. Ever.

It doesn’t matter what it’s for.

You’re saving up for a new wheelchair?

For college?

To put a downpayment on a house?

Hell man, you just happen to budget for once in your life so that you can have some extra money in case something bad happens?

Your benefits immediately get cut off if you’re a cent over $2,000.

And, even worse, you usually end up having to pay back every dollar the government gave you that month.

So say you get $400. If they find out you’re twenty dollars over the resource limit, you have to give them all $400 back and you undergo an investigation of your funds to see if you will continue getting money.

“What if I spend the money that day?”

Doesn’t matter. In fact, from what I can tell, people who do this are actually put under investigation for fraud.

And yes, this system literally kills people.

[locuas642]

Remember when “Guardians of the Galaxy” came out? one of Rocket Racoon’s creators, Bill Mantlo, suffered an accident in 1992 and has irreparable brain damage.

before the movie came out, Marvel gave him an exclusive preview screening. SOme people were upset because they felt if Marvel was really wanted to thank mantlo, they should have donated money to Mantlo’s family.

Bill Mantlo’s brother had to come out and explain: If Marvel gave them monetary aid, Bill Mantlo would lose his financial assistance.

[rootbeergoddess]

That’s so utterly depressing.

[sushinfood]

disgusting

[beeskeepony]

I have friends on welfare who won’t pick up a penny in the street because they’d risk the welfare they struggled to get for 10 years.

[raenboow]

oh look another fucked up thing in this world. let’s just add it to the list. number 63858b

[luvtonique]

My brother has been on California State SSI for autism for the last 10 years, and he absolutely has to (no joke, HAS TO) spend all 720 bucks of his SSI every month, because if he puts it in the bank he risks losing his SSI altogether.

Sometimes, at the end of the month, he has no idea what to do with his money because the whole month went by and he still has 400-ish bucks in his account, and he fucking panics because he doesn’t want to get anywhere near 2,000.

And here’s the funnest part of the story!

One day he did a huge commission on Second Life and wound up earning 1500 bucks off of it, and he told the guy to donate it 500 bucks at a time over 3 months. The guy didn’t want to, and just donated all 1500, which put my brother at 2,036 bucks.

The state IMMEDIATELY (I’m talking less than an hour) called him up to tell him over the phone that they were canceling his SSI, because they noticed he had gone over the 2,000 buck threshold. He had to tell them that someone had made a charitable donation to him and that this was not a common occurrence in any way shape or form, and upon not believing him, my mother had to call to talk to them as his legal caretaker and say basically the same thing until they called off the cancellation of his SSI money.

He also had to cancel his renter’s assistance because it put him to 1,062 a month, so if he went 30 days without spending any money they’d cancel his SSI altogether. Like, none of us in the family have any fucking clue why that regulation is in place and it’s the stupidest shit in human history.

Please, legal side of Tumblr, tell me what positive reasoning this law has?

[sodomymcscurvylegs]

Happy 4th of July everyone! This is what the “nation of opportunity” looks like.

[xfirecorex]

There’s something called an ABLE account that can help. If you are on SSI and were diagnosed as disabled before the age of 26 you can apply for an ABLE account that will allow you to save up to $99,000. More people need to know about this!

[strawbebbynya]

thank you so much for this information. i’m applying for an abled account right now

[viostormcaller]

THERES A WHAT

OH GOD BLESS THE SHIT OUTTA YOU YOU HAVE NO IDEA HOW FREAKED OUT OVER THIS I WAS

[septic-dr-schneep]

I’ve been looking into SSI; I had no idea about this!

According to wiki, 39 states + DC have ABLE accounts, so check with your state

ok so hiatus-sort-of-thing isn't over cause i'm still traveling with family which mostly sucks but PRIDE MONTH is awesome bc it's like

me, a baby recruit to the alphabet mafia whose starry eyes are renewed every time they see a rainbow, pride flag, pride anything, or get a generally queer vibe from someone else in public and who is currently THRIVING

vs

my parents, who have to drag me along with them in the cities during PRIDE MONTH where bc of capitalism and marketing even the fcuking STAIRS have rainbow banners on them, and they aren't allowed to say a thing lest they be outed as homo/transphobic fucks in public during PRIDE MONTH

I'm WINNING

[garrettauthor]

I made this into a video:

[garrettauthor]

Hey, we’ve now got some pride shirts if that’s your thing:

You can choose your role: KNIGHT, RANGER, THIEF, or WIZARD, and every one comes with iconography drawn from our books.

And then we created shirts for every queer identity we could think of:

Bi Knight? Got you covered. Trans Thief? You’re in there. Pan Wizard? Yup. Agender Ranger? Absolutely.

And if we missed your identity or your flag, just message me. I’ll get it added ASAP.

Half of all profits go to our designer, an awesome local queer dude.

The other half go towards editing, covers, and production of future queer books by queer authors.

Check’em out, babes!

The Beaker snitching and pointing out the photographer

The Beaker that’s about to unload on the photographer

The terminator strut before the ass whooping and you know he’s moving at speed because of the blur

once when i was a kid i was at michael's (a store) with my mother after school and i was in my school uniform which was basically just a red polo shirt and khakis and i was in the paint section while my mother was looking at something else and an older woman came up to me and asked for help and im like 'sure' and she explained the issue and im like 'sorry idk' and she's like are you sure and it hit me that i had to explain that i didn't work there but the first thing that i said was 'i'm 12' and she was like 'oh' and we just stared at each other for a full minute before i could speak again and properly explain that i didn't actually work here and that i was in a school uniform
