nazism is illegal in germany. using nazi greetings and flying nazi flags is illegal in germany. why isnt the kkk unconstitutional in america. why arent white hoods and white supremacist propaganda illegal here. why.
everyones entitled to their own opinions, like “mario kart isnt good” or “i do not favor the color green”, but youre not entitled to thinking im undeserving of basic human rights, and youre not entitled to the belief that because of someones identity (whether it be sexual, racial, cultural, gender, or anything else) they deserve to be harmed. you are not entitled to be oppressive. this isnt something you can disagree with, because it isnt an opinion, i am merely stating facts
Hey!
Before you get all pissy about seeing a “straight couple” kissing at an LGBT+ event, keep in mind that:
- one or both of them could be bi and still feel attatched to the LGBTQ+ community
- one or both of them could be pan and still feel attatched to the LGBTQ+ community
- one or both of them could be transgender and are there because hey that’s what the T stands for
- one or both of them could be agender or another form of genderqueer
Thank you!!
Things I really wish existed in more fic:
Thor’s holiday frame of reference being the high holy days because he knows Jane and Darcy and being mostly puzzled by christmas.
You know, not to mention, in the…
“you’ll scare guys off with that feminist crap”
oh i’m sorry
you’re right
the kind of guy who has problems with me demanding that i be treated as his equal is totally the kind of guy i want to be in a relationship with
my mistake
Hey, sweeties, I’m new to Tumblr and I have legit no clue what I’m doing. And let me tell you a thing: I am shit with tags and I know that some people need me to not be shit with tags. But I don’t really know what should and shouldn’t be tagged with trigger warnings (see: new to Tumblr) and I want to make sure everyone who follows me is as comfortable as possible. So if you need me to tag something that I haven’t been tagging, please tell me, and I will do my best to make sure that I do. I’ve been in situations where the littlest things would send me spiraling, I know the feeling, I’m just not sure how to protect you from it. So tell me what to tag, I’ll tag it, and I’ll learn how to Tumblr. Sound good?
adults are always like “you’re too young to understand the real world is like” but no, I completely understand what the real world is like and I want to be a part of the generation that fixes what you lot won’t
my white privilege: talking about systemic racism, posting about systemic racism, liking statuses about systemic racism, being outraged by systemic racism, not fearing for my life because of systemic racism.
shout out to everyone who doesn’t have a super identity-supportive family to be around this thanksgiving. shout out to everyone who’s going to have to endure a day of incorrect pronouns, birth name usage, heternormativity, and cisnormativity. i love you. please take care of yourself.
The scary part of what’s happening in Mexico is that while looking for the bodies of the 43 missing students they have found out massive clandestine graveyards with a lot of bodies and they are like “well, this aren’t the missing students”. Then who are they?
We were looking for 43, but we found dozens, hundreds, thousands of people without a face, bodies without an identity, bodies who weren’t mourned.
Since my family is almost here, I just want to say to anyone in my queer/trans/non-binary family who is about to enter an unsafe family environment this holiday season
You matter
You are important
You are strong
You are beautiful
You are valid
Sending ya’ll all my love and support. You will get through this.
someone was criticizing michael brown’s mom for screaming when the verdict was read and all I can say is if someone murdered one of my babies and they gave the killer half a million dollars instead of trying him for the crime I would be screaming bloody murder too and you would hear me from space
i’m eternally grateful and thankful for all of the protestors and people all over the planet fighting for their right to exist as human fucking beings every day. you are the most important people in the world
Found a quote that shuts down that “not all men” argument pretty well. (via mykicks)

My best friend and I are watching Aang and Katara be adorable and romantic in ATLA, and we were talking about the fact that it was startlingly sexual for a kid’s show, and she goes “GAAAAAAAAAY.” Then she pauses and goes “No, wait, fuck, HETEROOOOOOOO, I forgot some people were straight.”
The fucking SHITTIEST thing about trying to educate about Ferguson is when people play devil’s advocate just to rile you up, like SHUT UP. You’re WASTING MY TIME, you KNOW it was wrong, don’t try to tell me that you agree but I should attempt to “see things from all perspectives” or “contemplate how hard it will be for Wilson to return to the work force” like fuck you. Wilson got thousands of dollars and a wife and Brown is literally DEAD.
