any time i hear the insufferable transphobic athlete arguments i think of that one time in middle school when my boys lacrosse team did a full-contact scrimmage against the girls team (who typically play with limited contact) and i, a six-foot, 180lb defender, got utterly laid-out by this 5-foot-nothing girl experiencing the newly-unleashed animosity accompanied by violent sport and as i looked up at my assailant from flat on my back i experienced a brief bout of heterosexuality and fell wildly in love and then had to be taken to the ER because i had a concussion

You are not a socialist unless you are an anti-imperialist, whatever you call yourself. This is definitionally true as imperialism is capitalism at its highest and present stage.

Like do i get treated like this because I'm a women, or the eldest??

Do anyother eldest daughters wonder why they seem to do more for the family than their other siblings? Like I can't tell if it's the patriarchy, or that my little brother is a shit, or if i just have a better work ethic or if i like cleaning bc everyone leaves me alone when i do so.

Like it's difficult cuz it's like do i like doing it, or do i have to do it bc no one else will, or do i just like listening to music?? And if i continue doing more chores than my brother will he be an ass to his wife when he gets married????

Here is Rep. Jamie Raskin (D-MD)'s full 13-minute video montage of the Capitol insurrection.

I've said it once, and I'll say it again, how dare they, how dare they.

This is incredibly jarring to see it on a timeline, it's disheartening, and eye-opening. Fascism, conservatism, the right, they all need to be removed from the country like the malignant tumor they are. People subscribed to those beliefs are delusional. The act of right propaganda needs to be stopped.

This video needs to be shared 100x more than it has been. People need to see this and remember that these people are apart of America, and will continue to be apart unless something is changed.

antisemitism is very present in the LGBT community, making many jews feel unsafe in places where they should feel welcome. do your research about antisemitism, talk to LGBT jews, learn dogwhistles, stop using nazi imagery as “pride symbols” and please listen to jews.

“Debt’s origins come from colonialism’s origins. Those who lend us money are those who colonized us. They are the same ones who used to manage our states and economies. These are the colonizers who indebted Africa through their brothers and cousins, who were the lenders. We had no connections with this debt. Therefore we cannot pay for it.”

— Thomas Sankara, A United Front Against Debt, 1987

Oh to be in a fantasy novel being told by my love interest that I’m the only home they’ve ever had.

My love letter to the queer silver lining of 2020

A lot of revolutionary, unprecedented things happened in 2020 — that... goes without saying

But among all the chaos, one thing I can be grateful for was the surge of queer representation in western animation

I feel lucky to be alive in this time of change, and I’m also excited for the younger generation who gets to grow up with these explicitly queer shows

It gives me hope that this kind of representation will make it easier for them to figure things out :’)

Here’s to a safe, happy, and loving 2021, and here’s to being seen!! ❤️🌟
