I dont usually post these kinds of things but I was friends with Ryan and we would really appreciate it if you considered donating or sharing. Thank you.
If you wouldn't mind sharing, my friend from college was killed last year and we are raising money to honor his memory at our Alma mater. Ryan was a disabled trans man and a truly wonderful soul and we miss him terribly. Please consider donating if you are able ❤️
what needs to precede discussions on cultural transfeminine third genders is the understanding that trans woman is, on the one hand, not any less cultural than any other gender identity, while also being used as a clinical, culturally neutral term, and this creates a class of prestige through which the individual can access womanhood globally, and so makes it a question not only of cultural identity but also of the imperial administrative apparatus and border politics. and as long as we approach the topic of gender with the framework of determining what an identity and an individual "really is" we won't be getting anywhere

*please note that i am a palestinian who has been boycotting my entire life. do not try to explain to me in the tags or reblogs or replies what a targeted boycott is or complain about giving up your comfort for something that you (incorrectly) believe does not make an impact. being quiet is free. exercise your right to remain silent today.

yknow i never noticed the sheer rareness of images having ids or alt text on this website until i started adding alt text to my art (and trying to remember to add it to any images i post in general, especially text screenshots) and that makes me kinda sad
was reading an article from back in 2013 when some ancient roman artifacts were unearthed by moles digging tunnels and this image description is making me lose my goddamn mind
