The entitlement of US Vietnam vets is so fucking wild because, like, on top of everything else they lost the war! These people will stand tall and demand you recognize the “sacrifices” they made for your “freedom,” as though they didn’t suffer a humiliating military defeat. Talk about participation trophies!

The nature of service work in the US is that someone will frequently walk up to you and say “Hello, I shot every Vietnamese child I could see and still lost the war. Please give me everything for free now? 🥺” and if you do the decent thing and tell them to kill themselves you get fired

Lucy, a weirdly odd, cute demon girl with an explosively, creatively  imagination!!! 

I have a research background in weight stigma and I currently work in mental health, often with LGBTQ+ clients.

I've met nonbinary people who struggle with disordered eating because they only ever see androgyny depicted as featureless thinness.

I've met trans women who struggle with disordered eating because they've internalized the idea that girls are meant to be thin, dainty, and delicate.

I've men trans men who struggle with disordered eating, because they feel women are allowed to be soft/curvy but men need to be muscular or thin and flat.

So many trans people are convinced that weight loss is the key to appearing as their desired gender, even when they want radically different gender presentations.

The societal idealization of thinness and fatphobia falsely invades and derails people's idea of what their "ideal body" should look like.

The social effects of privileging thinness are so damaging. Like, it's hard enough to deviate from expected gender roles and binary sexuality but now fat people have to do it on hard mode

In September 2017, Ikuhara had an entire retrospective book published about him: Kunihiko Ikuhara: Revolutionary Girl Utena, Mawaru Penguindrum, Yuri Bear Storm … Our Revolution and Survival Strategy

It included new art from the people Ikuhara had worked with, including these four gorgeous full color images. My cleaning skills and options have expanded a TON since I scanned it though, so here are brand new copies!

the thing about being nonbinary is that you really do start to forget that other people have such strict walls around what is and isn’t allowed for genders. i thought we all agreed that we made that up. could you climb out of the cave real quick and feel the sunshine for a minute.

You don't have to be a Muslim to participate and help the people of Gaza. Just be humane and donate to Sami's family.

Fucking wild to be teaching about Rosa Parks at the same time as a trans woman in Florida does an act of civil disobedience to use a women's restroom in the state capitol

As far as I know, she is the first woman arrested bc of this law. The law requires that the trans person be warned to leave the bathroom by a state official, and then if they stay they are guilty of trespassing after a warning.

So like, me, my gf, others just piss and nobody asks or tells, but this young woman sent a statement about the law to over 100 FL lawmakers so they would know she was coming, the cops were ready for her, she brought a reporter and went in anyway and spent the night in a men's jail. She is out on bail, and is hoping this will inspire change of the law. But if found guilty, and the law is upheld as constitutional, then she could spend up to 60 days in a mens county jail.

Seriously, this is extremely Rosa Parks coded. Good looking, religious college girl. It's the whole playbook. She also added this selfie.

I support her and hope this goes as well as it can.

Shoutout to trans women for being the only ones to do something actually politically radical with the recent trend of girlcore catholicism

by the way, notice the ubiquity of the stars and stripes and red maga hats and "stop the steal" for Pro-Yoon rallies. I have to reiterate, over and over, that the right-wing, from the far-right to the center right, in East Asia is joined at the hip with the United States and actively seek the occupational military force's active intervention when politics do not go their way. You cannot, as a yank, do this song and dance about "ohh South Korea/Japan is so reactionary" when the reason for that is the occupational force that's been around for 80 years.

Notice the amount of stars and stripes for the Pro-Yoon rally

and the lack of the, here for the Anti-Yoon rally. Also of note here is the lone rainbow anti-discrimiantion sign at the Anti-Yoon rally. The United States and its flag is symbolic against social progress and equality world wide.

Help a Homeless Refugee Trans Woman Get Permanent Housing

I have been homeless since my suicide attempt in January 2024 (so, 14 months) and I live in the worst hotel in the world, that has a shower that electrocutes me and a floor that is always sticky no matter what. If you could smell this place you would kill yourself.

Long story short, now that I'm documented, I'm grounded in this overpriced city for at least a couple weeks for medical reasons. But after that I'm going to be looking for an apartment, and I need tumblr's help both to be alive until then and also to do everything that entails.

I am a homeless refugee who has no support from friends or family.

"Every night, my children, my sick parents, and I sleep in fear, praying that it won’t be our last night alive. We live with constant terror, and all we wish for now is to survive and find safety. Please, we are begging you—help us with any amount, even the smallest, so we can escape this nightmare and find a place where we can live in peace."❤️‍🩹

Sally just became a big sister to her baby brother Mohammed. Their mother Laila @laylaayman-blog2 has been fundraising trying to support their family through the awful conditions in Gaza, but it is hard for her to keep promoting her cause while taking care of a newborn, and donations have slowed as a result. She needs our help to share her campaign!

Please consider donating what you can, no amount is too small, and share if you cannot donate! Everything helps to get this campaign moving again, so that Laila can provide Sally and Mohammed with their basic needs!

for anyone unaware, BDS is calling for a boycott of Microsoft Game Pass, Minecraft, and New Xbox Consoles

if anyone’s wondering, yes, this was initiated by the official bds movement that originated the main 6 boycotts (the one with HP/ahava/siemens/puma/etc), because microsoft directly supports the genocide, as in their AI services are being used by the IOF to commit the genocide

this includes microsoft owned publishers like blizzard/activision
