yo if you’re a cis girl or afab and femme presenting and you’d be comfortable with having a trans girl roommate, please reblog this. i just need reinforcement that there are girls out there who wouldn’t be disgusted by a girl like me.
My rules for roommates: don’t leave food lying around to rot, that shit’s dangerous, and if you touch my computer without express, explicit permission, I reserve the right to murder you with my bare hands (I’m a writer and I’m paranoid, I’m sorry). Otherwise I couldn’t give less of a shit.

Anyone who says they’ve never held bigoted beliefs is 100% a liar. We get older and we learn better and we grow more understanding of the world around us. Social justice is not a contest of perfection. It’s a process of growth. That has been completely lost on this community in the past two years.
HARRIET TUBMAN ESCAPED FROM SLAVERY AND THEN WENT BACK TO GET OTHERS. LIKE, I KNOW YOU KNOW WHO HARRIET TUBMAN IS AND THAT SHE DID THAT, BUT I JUST WANT YOU TO TAKE THAT IN FOR A SECOND.
HARRIET TUBMAN WAS HELD CAPTIVE AND BOUND TO UNPAID, BACK-BREAKING LABOR SINCE BIRTH UNDER PENALTY OF TORTURE OR DEATH. SHE MANAGED TO ESCAPE THAT LIFE, AND SHE TURNED THE FUCK AROUND AND WENT THE FUCK BACK TO GET EVERYONE ELSE WHO WAS STILL TRAPPED IN IT. AND THEN SHE DID IT AGAIN EIGHTEEN MORE TIMES.
WHEN ABRAHAM LINCOLN WAS UNSURE WHETHER OR NOT HE WAS PREPARED TO MAKE A STAND AGAINST SLAVERY, HARRIET TUBMAN BASICALLY SAID HE SHOULD STOP BEING SUCH A DIAPER BABY AND THAT GUYS WHO ARE TOO SCARED TO END SLAVERY DON’T DESERVE TO WIN WARS.
NOT ONLY DID SHE SECRET OVER 300 SLAVES TO FREEDOM ON THE UNDERGROUND RAILROAD, BUT SHE ACTED AS A SPY FOR THE UNION ARMY DURING THE CIVIL WAR, AND BECAME THE FIRST WOMAN TO LEAD AN ARMED ASSAULT IN THE CIVIL WAR. THAT RAID BROUGHT FREEDOM TO OVER 700 SLAVES IN ONE GO.
SO I JUST WANT YOU TO STEW ON THAT FOR LIKE A MINUTE. ACTING IN THE SHADOWS, SHE WALKED INTO HELL ON EARTH 19 TIMES TO SAVE HER FELLOW HUMAN BEINGS FROM THE TORMENT SHE ENDURED, AND THE SECOND SHE WAS GIVEN EVEN A MODICUM OF POWER, SHE MANAGED TO FREE SEVEN HUNDRED SLAVES IN ONE DAY.
I GUARANTEE, HOWEVER IMPRESSED YOU ALREADY ARE WITH HARRIET TUBMAN, YOU ARE FALLING LIKE AT LEAST 40% SHORT OF HOW IMPRESSED YOU SHOULD BE WITH HARRIET TUBMAN. SHE IS ONE OF THE BEST EXAMPLES OF BADASSERY IN THE ENTIRETY OF AMERICAN HISTORY.

‘excellent. elaborate please’
‘all mammals. two quadrupeds, one feline and one canine, as well as one biped sapien. they appear to be… relaxing and eating in a shared space’
‘what the fuck’
imagine these guys trying to be really polite about it because for some reason the bipeds really enjoy harboring these strange freeloading carnivores. an alien warlord meeting some diplomat’s cat and being all tentatively like ‘ah… yes. your parasite is remarkably large and complacent. you are no doubt a very well-used host and oh my stars don’t let it touch me no no NO.’

ALL PEOPLE ARE BEAUTIFUL! Race, religion, sex, sexual orientation, all of it doesn’t matter. We’re all beautiful creatures
jewish women are amazing and beautiful, pass it on
ALL WOMEN ARE BEAUTIFUL STFU
jewish women are amazing and beautiful, pass it on
man, i’m so glad that there’s no antisemitism on this post! i really thought there would be, but (looks around) there are absolutely no goyim being crappy here! amazing
it sure is great how no one tried to derail the fact that Jewish women are amazing and beautiful
“But you’re not at all like my son?!”
People rarely get surprised when an 18 year old is very different from a 5 year old, but when both are autistic people suddenly find it incredulous that they might have different personalities and different abilities, and that they might be at very different stages in life.
And both are different from a 33 year old. I’ve literally had to speak the words, “We grow up. We don’t die from autism.”
In an argument with my mother over my role in life, in which I said I have to be what I never had, she said, “Do you think I never went looking for an adult like you, when you were a child? I NEVER found one! NO ONE was like you were!”
Of course no adult was like me.
I was a child.
This is an extraordinarily multigenerational problem that has existed as long as disability has existed.
Reblog this. Parents younger than me need to read it now.
The thing about trans women that people don’t talk about enough is the voice problem. Many of us are afraid to admit it, but there’s something incredibly degrading about being expected to alter the way we use our voice around people.
Really, like, the way that trans women are taught and expected to speak is incredibly tedious, unnatural, and obviously forced to the ear of any speech pathologist. So the “solution” is for us to go “full-time” and essentially ditch the voice that comes naturally.
It isn’t right, but there’s no winning in either case. People will misgender you if you speak naturally, and if you do try to use your “feminized” voice you’re honestly putting yourself at risk of violence, and how the fuck am I supposed to feel confident when knowing full well that the sounds coming out of me aren’t genuine or convincing to anyone?
This is a serious fucking problem that doesn’t get addressed. Trans women are expected to find services and often pay absurd sums of money to get training or “therapy” for the voice, but all you are really doing is practicing the art of speaking in a submissive and stereotyped voice. Enter radfems, who would then use this as a weapon against us, claiming that we are perpetuating *ppfffpffpfafbloobpblboooblbllblblpp* by using our voices in a way that makes us feel safe.
But, unless you’re the lucky 5-10% of trans women who can pass even after speaking, that safety is not only unlikely, but more often than not people are going to look at you with disgust and of course you know what happens once you’re outed.
Why should I have to talk like a fucking cartoon character? Cis women do NOT sound the way that these voice experts insist they do, because trans women have to speak primarily with a head tone, completely forgoing the chest and therefore removing the part of the sound that makes it sound like speaking and not fucking squealing.
If you care about trans women, expecting us to change our voices in order to pass as cis is fucking gross.
On 19/4, a water park in Hanoi, Vietnam called ‘Ho Tay’ opened for free admission from 8AM-10AM (GMT+7). The chaos was terrifying, when the staff decided to close the gate due to overcrowded. Many people tried to climb over the fences to get in.
However, that was the least of the problem.
Inside, at the lazy river area, around 70 to 80 guys (even men who already had wives and kids) went together in groups. Whenever they saw girls, they started attack them by splashing water and WORST part was, they pushed her head down, DROWNING her and at the same time, RIPPED OFF HER BIKINI and started MOLESTED her. Some girls fainted and despite all the crying and screaming for help from friends, the group of animals won’t stop. They even PULL girls standing near the river down and started doing all those nasty things. AT LEAST, 20 girls were being sexually assaulted.
There was a girl with her bikini torn apart and all the guys surrounding her, cat calling: Link
Below is some photos of the incident.
The victims after they went home had anonymously leave confessions. Here are some of the confessions:
#1: We were holding onto the swim ring at the lazy river for about 3 minutes. Then we heard a commotion at the back, as we turned around we saw hundreds of boys crowded the whole river, screaming and going towards the three of us. I was shock and choked on water, many arms pushed my head down. I felt my breast and my private area being grab and pull and scratch very painful, my butt was groped too. My bikini top was pull up to my neck and the bottom was pull till my knee. Even though i was choking, but i felt clearly someone was fingering me, my legs was spread apart. My head was still pressed down, I was out of breath and I thought I was going to drown. The water go up my nose to my brain, my throat. Those arms scratch and pull me up, my head hit the coping. Then there was people grab my hair, my arm to pull out of the swimming pool. I was coughing really hard so I didn’t even realize I was completely naked…
#2: I was swimming in the lazy river with my friends. Behind us, all the boys kept splashing water like crazy, we were so freak out that all of us decided to go out of the river. As we just got out, one of my friend, who were still near the river, were pulled down and dragged to the centre of the river and was being splashed water and her head was pressed down. We saw our friend being surrounded by bunches of guys, we kept crying and called out: please help my friend, someone please help my friend. Around us, people kept on using phone to record and laugh like they were at the circus.
#3: My sister went with her friends. When they came back, they were crying their eyes out. Their necks, shoulders and thighs are full of scratches and bruises.
#4: It was too crowded so my boyfriend and I just played near the swimming pool coping. Suddenly I saw on my boyfriend head some milky fluid, when I touched, it was slippery and a bit thick. I dragged my boyfriend out of the pool immediately and asked him to wash his hair and we went home right after. Those animals masturbated in the swimming pool.
The facebook of the guy who started all these nasty thing had been tracked down. (This is the link)
And many other guys went home and updated their facebook status about their “achievements" at the water park like how many boobs they had grabbed or how many girls they’d molested on that day.
However, the Vice Managing Director of the water park said that “There was NO such thing as sexually assaulted at the water park, it’s just their bikini quality" regarding about the girls who had their bikini ripped. (Source / please note that it’s in Vietnamese) despite all the evidences and feedback.
Those guys are currently trying to take down photos of themselves and facebook statuses that they’ve updated (click here for the photo of some of them). But luckily, all of those have been screencapped. Most of their identities are revealed and all over the internet.
Even worse, when all the news are up, the comments make me sick to my stomach, many of them said that it’s THE GIRLS FAULT for wearing bikini.
LIKE HOW ARE YOU SUPPOSED TO DRESS TO GO TO WATER PARK? ARMOR?
THOSE ANIMALS THOUGHT THEY’RE GOING TO GET AWAY WITH IT AND APPARENTLY AT THIS RATE, THEY WILL.
SO I AM HERE TRANSLATING THIS INCIDENT TO YOU GUYS HOPING THIS WILL SPREAD AS FAR AS POSSIBLE.
PLEASE SHARE AND POST WHEREVER YOU WANT. YOU DON’T HAVE TO CREDIT ME OR ANYTHING. JUST SHARE AND HOPEFULLY IT WILL REACH BIG NEWS SITES OR ORGANISATIONS.
PLEASE HELP THE VICTIMS GAIN JUSTICE. I HOPE THIS WILL GO BIG ENOUGH TO PUT PRESSURE ON THE VIETNAMESE GOVERNMENT TO PUNISH THOSE GUYS.
UPDATE: A professional psychologist with a Master’s Degree of Education said: “It’s THE GIRLS’ FAULT for not knowing how to protect themselves.”
He said “First thing first about this issue, the one who should be BLAMED THE MOST ARE THE GIRLS, in the environment where people are naked 80% or more, the action (referring to molestation and rape) is inevitable.”
He also mentioned that it’s the environment that can cause someone to lose their control over excitement and that’s why the girls should know how to protect themselves, like if you want to protect your valuables, for example, motorbike, then you should locked it carefully etc. (source)
Another VICTIM BLAMING by a person who has high education. I’m so fucking done with all this shit.
More men acting like animals
Wow there is SO LITTLE reporting on this. Most news outlets seem more concerned about people jumping the fences than sexual assault.
So if The Mortal Instruments can get turned into a movie and then get turned into a TV show three years later, I think we can have Harry Potter TV show WITH THE FOLLOWING CONDITIONS:
Sarcastic, messy-haired Harry with eyes that actually match his mother’s
Loyal, brave, smart, AND funny Ron (not comedic relief Ron)
Flawed perfectionist Hermione who follows too close to the rules, makes color coded study schedules, drives Ron and Harry up the wall, is sometimes a goody-two shoes, and has some serious insecurities with regard to her academic ability
SPEW
Peeves
Sarcastic, popular, badass Ginny
REGULUS BLACK
Accurate Marauder era portrayal
Neville visiting his parents at St. Mungo’s
Harry smashing Dumbledore’s office

SPEW because the oppression of house elves in the books is such a huge deal. It was, essentially, what killed Sirius, and the alliance of house elves on both Voldy’s side and Harry’s side made significant impacts on the outcome of the prophecy.

if you are going to do historical inaccuracy, then go big. Just take it to a whole ‘nother level.
I mean like Knight’s Tale “chanting Queen at the jousting tournament ‘foxy lady’” levels of anachronism. Hansel and Gretel: Witch Hunters with Hansel injecting himself with insulin and Gretel wielding a multiple-shot crossbow levels of anachronism. Go for Blazing Saddles, Blackadder, Jack of All Trades, Connecticut Yankee levels of anachronism
you either have to play by the rules or throw out the book.
Go full on Xena. All of history happened at the same time. Get your legs broken by Caesar and find out Lao Tzu didn’t write that book, his wife did, and she hitting on you…all 10 years before you go meet up with Helen at Troy. Fight with Beowulf and commission Sappho within a few months of each other. Abraham and Issac? Only like 2 years before Jesus. Invent CPR and the kite during the bronze age. Watch your gal pal teach Homer how to be a better bard. Have a fucking battle of the bands in Ancient Greece. TIME IS MEANINGLESS.
High school graduations are hilarious lmao “you’ve truly become a family after these four years” I guarantee you if some of these kids caught fire half their classmates would calmly drink a glass of water in front of the burning students
I know everybody’s sickened by how every corporation is suddenly pro-LGBT and yeah it would have been nice to see such support waaay before now, but I think it’s kind of hilarious. Like, everything’s gay now. In one fell swoop the greatest fears of the bigots have come to be. The very Gatorade you drink is gay. The car you drive is gay. It’s all gay.
I’m so glad it’s not just me. I haven’t stopped laughing in like days.
fun fact: i’m happy for all same sex couples getting married today, and i’m a big sap for all of them, but nothing quite opens the floodgates as much as seeing elderly gay couples get married
this is particularly important because it shuts down the stubborn notion that queerness is all about being young and having wild kinky sex, it shuts down the talk that “having a bicurious phase” is just the latest fad, it makes queerness into a non-sexualized topic that concerns sedate elderly folks and therefore also concerns middle-aged people and elementary schoolers and people who aren’t high schoolers/college students that can be dismissed as sexual deviants, and that’s a slap in the face to bigots that i love to see
The other night, I had plans to go to an engagement party with the new guy I’m dating - it was for his best friend, and it was at a bar AKA the first time we would be drinking together.
Before we left for the bar, he and I were sitting on his bed talking, and he says, “Oh, I forgot I wanted to ask you something.” He proceeds to ask about when we get home from the bar, if I am wanting/trying to have sex with him, should he have sex with me, and/or what he should look for to know if I am too incapacitated to give consent.
That is the first and only time a guy has ever preemptively considered and asked about what consent would and would not look like with me.
i mean the reason the gay community fought for marriage rights was bc during the aids crisis their partners would literally die in the hospital all alone bc their partners couldnt visit them bc they were not “family”
ppl would lose their homes, their inheritances, even their children bc they were not “family” with their deceased partners
like this shit isnt about a tax cut. just let gay people celebrate this important acquisition
Today on the 9th day of the holy month of Ramadan, 25 Muslims were unjustly murdered by a mosque bombing in Kuwait. May Allah bless the souls of the those who were lost and heal those who were harmed.
﴿ الَّذِينَ إِذَا أَصَابَتْهُم مُّصِيبَةٌ قَالُواْ إِنَّا لِلّهِ وَإِنَّـا إِلَيْهِ رَاجِعونَ ﴾
My 13 yearold sister got asked out as a joke today. She’s now locked herself in her room crying. I swear to god this is the most fucked up thing ever. She won’t speak to me or my mom and she’s blasting Taylor Swift but you can still hear her crying.
If you ask someone out as a joke, fuck you, you are literally the scum of the earth.
Reblogged after the first sentence
Do. Not. Ask. People. Out. As. Jokes. Ever. Not for april fools, not any other day. You never know how much someone might like you or how badly someone might feel for getting dumped.
Given your username...have you spotted a gifset for all the appearances of Furiosa's femur-topped gearshift knife? There ought to be one....
You’re entirely responsible for tonight’s rewatch btw. Anyone able and willing, feel free to snag these below.
Introduction:
Sandstorm:
Revealed as a knife when Max left to fix the pod:
In the fight against Nux:
With the Vuvalini, I think this is the only shot like this, with the knife centered in a two shot. Increasing suspicion that the bone was from Mary JoBassa:
Used to stab a War Boy:
Who used it to stab Furiosa:
Bonus, the knife Max used on Furiosa wasn’t bone-handled and it was the only time he used a knife:
Otherwise knives were used on him:
In the bottom fight, Max is swinging the boltcutters, which Furiosa used against him in their first fight. How’s that for a theme?
