I am happy to provide an explanation as to why Autism Speaks is a horrible organization (albeit very visible) if you are looking for some informative and important reading ~Pluto

She’s fourteen, and she already feels like shit for being born white and cis.
Fuck tumblr.
this makes me sad more than anything. The fact that people feel guilty for existing is sad.
oh poor white cis people
grow the fuck up; this site is one of the only places where minorities can vent and stupid cis people are offended
just stopNo, here’s the fucking thing. This site isn’t for one group of people. It’s a fucking blogging site. For EVERYONE. You tell people not to be ashamed of what they fucking are, but only of its what you want? That’s pretty fucking disgusting. If you want equality, you don’t preach hate, because hate breeds more hate. That 14 year old isn’t your oppressor. She has done nothing wrong to be forced to hate herself, and to hate what she was born in. Grow the fuck up.
SOMEONE FINALLY FUCKING SAID IT!!!!

“If you rape a sexworker is it really rape?”
If you run over and kill a stunt-double is it really murder?
If you assault a professional fighter is it really assault?
A profession doesn’t justify being the victim of a crime.I’m really glad that of all my text posts, this is the most popular

I just got a ride home from the gym from a 40-ish year old five foot tall white woman that I’ve never talked to before tonight.
She offered as she saw me leaving. I live literally across the street. Maybe a 5-10 minute walk.
I asked her why she wanted to give me a ride and she said “Because with what’s going on out there I don’t think it’s safe for you to walk alone in the dark.”
I’m a black male in my late 20s who is six feet 8 inches tall and is roughly 400 lbs. I’m a literal giant.
And she feared for my safety because of what she’s seen on the news all week.
Think about that shit.
This is important.

Black People this is important. Signal Boost this. Could save a life.
Reblogging to add: YOU MUST UNAMBIGUOUSLY CLAIM YOUR RIGHTS TO BOTH A LAWYER AND TO SILENCE FOR THEM TO COUNT. This means you have to actually say “I am not speaking to you any longer without an attorney.” And then you have to SHUT. UP. No matter what. If you reengage with them in any manner, you have WAIVED your rights. The US Supreme Court in all of their majestic wisdom has decided that staying silent is not enough to exercise your right to silence. The police know that their interrogations have to stop once you tell them you won’t speak with them without a lawyer. If all you do is remain silent, they will KEEP INTERROGATING YOU. Now repeat after me: “I am not speaking to you without an attorney present. I am invoking my right to an attorney and to silence.” And say nothing else.
I’m not a lawyer, but this is how shit goes down.
Reblogging because lisa is a lawyer-extrodinaire and this additional info is important!
my mother always trained us to say that. Which is why I think you should add, THE ONLY PERSON WHO CAN MAKE DEALS IS THE D.A. AND JUDGE. Do not believe the police if they tell you, they will cut you a deal if you talk. SHUT UP. DO NOT SPEAK WITHOUT A LAWYER.COPS DON’T HAVE THE POWER TO MAKE DEALS. They have the authority to lie to you, to get you to say what they want you to.YOU OPEN YOUR MOUTH, THEY GOT YOU. Just don’t talk.
Also if you are pulled over on an empty road or sketchy highway you can drive to a safe place or a place with witnesses.

Never, ever assume asexuals have it easy.
Asexuality is growing up under the assumption you are a late bloomer, and then the assumption you are broken.
Asexuality is learning the word and still being afraid to define yourself as asexual because how can you say you don’t feel something you don’t even understand.
Asexuality is coming out to people and having them laugh and tell you ‘when you find the one’
Asexuality is trying to enter spaces that promise acceptance and being told ‘but you’re straight’
Asexuality is trying to enter a relationship, worried that if you tell them they won’t give you a chance and worried if you don’t you’re just leading them onAsexuality is living in a culture that finds sex so vital half the world revolves around it, and never understanding
Asexuality is being told you have it easy, so often you doubt any of your problems are realSo no. It’s not easy.

If, after you are finished questioning and experimenting with gender/sexuality, you figure out that you are straight and/or cisgender, that is completely okay. Your time spent figuring yourself out was not wasted or in vain, and you weren’t “faking it” the whole time. You’re just as valid as anyone else.
PREACH. Experimenting and becoming more self aware is NOT a waste of time.
