Shoutout to my dad who accidentally moved into an up and coming black lgbt neighborhood and was very disappointed to learn that all of his “new friends” weren’t actually interested in how to use iNaturalist or where he saw coyotes on his walks 😔🙏🏻
You misunderstand. My father has accidentally been on multiple dates now with multiple guys he was hoping wanted to be friends 😅
Oh bless him
had a dream that someone suggested the best gender neutral form of address would be Mþ (pronounced Myth) and i immediately said "mith me with that gay shit HEYOOO" and woke up at 4:30am hanging sideways off of my bed
@funnier-as-a-system Though I guess also bigender is a thing too. Porque no los dos?

It sucks that when black people vent or speak up about our issues especially without sugarcoating kindness towards white people, everyone just sees it and actively avoids listening.
but a white ally can say the exact same thing and these performative ass people will sit their asses down and be like "I am listening and learning"
#noticing
but yes, black people have been proven time and time again that no matter how marginalized or privileged a white person is, they will stick to and flock with other white people over POC (subconsciously or not)
I'm not transfem, but my heart really goes out for black transfems/trans women who are constantly talking about their experiences with transmisogyny/misognoir and their ideas on transfeminism only to clearly get overshadowed and socially isolated. i have met a lot of black trans women recently and they are the kindest ladies ever.
likewise as a black trans man, in my own personal experience, it's rough not only wanting to talk about racist degendering and how racism and transmisogyny overlaps along with black gender expression only to get shot down by white transmascs (who are probably transmeds or people who refuse to listen to other people's experiences) while those same guys use the existence of black trans men and weaponize it against people. it's exhausting.
anyway, I want my white peers to know that it's easy to listen to us and at the same time u can use your social advantages among other white people to protect black folks. I've seen with my own two eyes white people who preach about social lynching and murder turn a blind eye on me. it's why my trust in white people has gone down significantly.
cant even hornypost about falin touden bc im just gonna get dozens of people responding with marcille speech bubble image edits
Im gonna be so real can yall actually talk about ways we can support trans women in the UK instead of giving all the attention to fucking JKR. I already know that Harry Poter sucks, I wanna know how to actually HELP people. Something something you have to love the oppressed more than you hate the oppressor
Instead of focusing on a TERF who we've known about for at least 8 years and giving her more fucking attention, we should focus on learning about and supporting groups like TransActual, a trans/NB run organization in the UK supporting and fighting for the rights of trans and NB people (tumblr straight up won't embed the link, suspicious)
Im a usamerican and it took me literally googling "how to help trans women UK" to find them. The people on tumblr in 2025 aren't going to stop engaging with jkr no matter what you say, please put your effort elsewhere

the "well atheists are actually the real reactionaries :/" crowd always get very wormy and indignant about this one
There are judges in the US that have explicitly ordered church attendance. The whole concept of "separation of church and state" has been thoroughly whittled down at this point.
