the entire argument to ban tiktok from dems and republicans previously has been “national security threats” from china, with the evidence of tiktok as a national security threat being “just trust me”
now people have brought up since the beginning that this is obviously in reality a politically and financially motivated ban, but like a year ago on here you’d get called a CCP shill for saying “maybe the US government does not have good intentions with the tiktok ban” lol
“national security” as an argument for restriction of freedom of information from the US government should be an immediate red flag not a fucking sign of good policy. like does anyone remember the patriot act?
oh my bad! i posted this months ago but i shouldve included what the book is, this was from kate bornstein’s “my gender workbook: how to become a real man, a real woman, the real you, or something else entirely” and it’s also on internet archive where you can borrow it for an hour
some of you are dangerously susceptible to men hating terf ideology
like yesss girl!💅 SLAY! yess ew all men gross! all men in relationships do this one thing that every other man in the world does!💖🥰 #i hate men ‼ #men suck 😘🙌 ok now tell me your opinions on trans people
trans allies and/or are trans people themselves are not immune to terf propaganda
Hellppp some transphobe found my posts about getting surgery and is yelling in my asks about how I mutilated my ‘perfect feminine body’ . I got my wisdom teeth removed.
[The divine feminine] is stored in the [wisdom teeth]
I used to be a famous toymaker! Everyone loved my toys and business was great! That is, until VIDEO GAMES came along and RUINED EVERYTHING. I was given no choice but to go on a quest to destroy my video game enemies- and also maybe stealing some money on the side being a supervillian. And now a purple costumed clown is trying to stop me! All I'm trying to do is destroy what put me out of business! Is that really so bad?
After reaching out to Tumblr support, my previous account, @lyonneriley, was almost instantly terminated. I’ll be starting over here and reposting content from my former blog, as well as writing new content, and hopefully I’ll find all of you again.
In this in-depth report, participants offer a blow-by-blow account of the events at Columbia, appraising the tactics that the demonstrators have employed and the challenges that they face.
since the white house put out a ridiculous statement condemning the protests i want to reiterate again that many of the students involved are jewish, there has always been a large jewish presence at these protests in nyc and in campus organizing for palestine

official usps sent me a letter including a guide with a handwritten note asking me to switch the sizes of my patreon envalopes (envalopes that i bought from the local post office)
shoutout to usps worker Nixie who I guess took it upon themselves to send me this cause they were sick of my envalopes getting caught in the machine or something idk
I love learning about the inner workings of usps-CAUGHT FIRE??
I like that people included male rape victims as well! This is a good post
“They shouldn’t have gone out with someone they met online.”
always always reblog
This is amazing as a two time survivor it’s fucking time to hear this shit debunked! Hate has no place!
Can not not reblog.
If I here someone say any of the sentences above…
I can’t believe some people need to hear this but RAPE IS RAPE. How can anyone excuse it? Survivors have to hear this bullshit smh. I feel so horrible for the people who have to hear this from people. I feel so horrible for the people who have had traumatizing experiences like getting raped and people don’t see how serious and scarring it can be.
^^ if any of you don’t agree please unfollow me thank u -.-
[100/10: TRULY A MASTERPIECE. I THINK THIS MIGHT BE THE BEST POST. IN GENERAL.]
I need this guy to understand that I Don’t Forgive Him, and that he’s Going To Hell
I need him to understand that because of him, pop-up blockers were invented, and because of that, other, more intrusive and less escapable forms of advertising were also invented, until I need to run a whole separate app on my phone to block ads because nothing else fucking works and the app goes full scorched earth on some websites because they use tracking cookies as product images to surveil what we click on and what we buy so without those tracking images the site doesn’t work at all. This is also a problem for video ads on Tumblr, but it’s a price I’m willing to pay to avoid seeing another ad for Taylor Swift. Fuck you, sir. Fuck you and the horse that will hopefully make Mr. Hands look like My Little Pony. I legitimately hope you die horrifically. You have made the Internet measurably less useful, less helpful, less intuitive, and generally a worse place to be. I hate you.
I don’t know who Megan Kelly is but I wanna piss her off
dis bitch
“Verifiable fact” 😭😂
I’d PISS ON HER tbh
btw Saint Nicholas, whom Santa Claus is based on, was a black guy
and we don’t know exactly what jesus looked like, but here’s an artistic reconstruction of an average 20-something male from his ethnic group at the time
DOES THIS LOOK FUCKING WHITE TO YOU
I want this post everywhere
jesus was represented more or less accurately as an ethnically jewish arab man up until the reign of pope alexander vi, in the late 15th century. since he was viciously persecuting roman jews during this time, alexander wanted to make them less sympathetic to the public, and did so in part by ordering that portrayals of jesus be based off of his son, cesare borgia.
the reason “jesus is white” is because someone purposefully attempted to alter the perception of history to benefit his goal of persecuting a targeted ethnic group.
Ooh, interesting historical note.
I don’t usually share posts like this but I always want to piss off Megan Kelly
Canon Santa not fanon Santa
hey fuck u megan kelly
also this reminds me of the time my super religious grandma went on a super angry rant about “WHY DOES EVERYONE SAY JESUS IS WHITE” and how racist it is i love her
This is my only auditory sensory overload problem. I don’t mind buzzing or humming or the simple volume of sounds. But I cannot have other voices nearby if I’m trying to have a conversation. I WILL attempt to process all of it, I WILL fail miserably, and I WILL forget everything. I think it’s why I like going to concerts alone, cuz I can just focus on the music and forget that for most people, concerts are part art appreciation and part social event. Makes it hard to fully let loose and Get Weird on the dancefloor.
Whoever invented “open in app” links that redirect you to the app store instead of actually opening the app even when you already have the app installed on your phone should be involuntarily turned into a beanbag chair
I uninstalled SoundCloud because even though I already had the app, every SoundCloud link I clicked directed me to the app store. Fuck you if you do this.
If a flaming old queen in a cape wants to kill off racists in power I say have at it
That wasn’t even his plan!! His plan was to make the senator a mutant, so he’d have to advocate for mutants or be destroyed by his own policy, and tbh. It’s the best villain plan I’ve ever seen. The goo was the plan unexpectedly failing. 9/10 only bc he was going to kill Rogue. Next time use someone willing to sacrifice herself for the cause, pls. No further notes
I like how his plan in like real world terms, was to turn desantis gay but instead he exploded
like to charge reblog to cast tbh
This would never work on real Republicans. They would use it as evidence that queerness was a horrible curse inflicted on the Innocent by evil mutant terrorists to try to destabilize America and everything would only get worse. Magneto would be the target of the most publicized manhunt we’ve had since Osama.
The most dangerous game to play: “Resting your eyes” in the morning after shutting off your alarm
Follow please 🙏
Just played that game. An hour and 10 minutes passed
This is why I have six alarms on my phone spread across two apps (regular clock and Sleep As Android) plus an atomic clock, PLUS an old school hammer-and-bells alarm clock that goes off after all the rest, which I use if I’m going to be getting less than six hours of sleep. If I go to bed late, I need to make DAMN SURE I’m gonna be woken up.
Apparently there was some kind of race scheduled at a local park or something so I’ve been trying to avoid the main trail but a little while ago when I had to cross near it I overheard the following shouted exchange
Higher feminine voice: woo, look at you go! You’re jogging! Keep it up!
Lower masculine voice (panting): you know it! Last place is still a place, baby!
And goddamn if that didn’t rewire my brain a little bit.
Last place is still a place, baby.
I know of a trail racing company that gives the slowest racer who finishes every race a DFL award: Dead Fucking Last. I was a little taken aback by this until I had it explained to me that those last-place finishers are pretty much uniformly people for whom finishing at all was an accomplishment: people undergoing cancer treatments, absolute beginners, runners in their eighties, extremely pregnant people, you get the idea. Moreover, what you see as this person crosses the finish line is all these sporty trail racers, many of whom finished the race literal hours earlier, cheering their hearts out because they respect that, yes, DFL is still a place, baby.
why do i end up sitting straight up in my sleep. ignore how many blankets I use.
Bestie it is impossible to ignore the amount of blankets you use at first I assumed this was a meme and those were the layers of the crust of the earth
I actually have 4 more blankets I sometimes add but I didn’t want to make my blanket number look excessive
Are you okay
The results are inconclusive on that.
Bestie. the reason you end up sitting up is your lungs think you are being crushed.
in light of police across the country cracking down on pro palestine protests with brutal force, it feels like a great time to remind everyone to shut the fuck up around cops. don’t make small talk, dont act friendly, don’t fucking engage with them!! if you are arrested DO NOT speak without a lawyer present. protest organizers, get into contact with local pro bono lawyers who can be there for your arrested comrades. no matter what, if cops are there, shut the fuck up unless you are actively doing a protest chant. dont tell cops why you were there, dont tell them if you’re affiliated with the school you may be protesting at, dont tell them if you came there with anyone, dont tell them anything!!!
On the 28th of April, 2011, Ed Balls got a Twitter account. He decided (as most people under the spotlight do) to attempted to look up his own name. However, all he did was tweet “Ed Balls”. This, for some reason, got retweeted by THOUSANDS of people. On a global scale. And because he didn’t know you could delete a tweet it stayed. Every year since then,the 28th of April is Ed Balls day.
This is the infamous tweet
and here are some gems to celebrate that have followed the years, including last year where they framed the tweet and got him to sign it for charity
There are also LOADS MORE in this article from the Telegraph
this honestly just came out of left fucking field i would have never expected to hear anything like this in this show. consider me Pleasantly Surprised tbh
This was the autism episode
people seem to forget that house was a multiply disabled man, so it should be a given that he’d be against eugenics and eugenicist doctors
obviously i love jhutch and im usually very quick to defend his overly enthusiastic allyship in the 2010s because a) i do genuinely think he cares about lgbt rights and b) i was in highschool in the 2010s, i remember how huge it was for a famous person to be even slightly supportive of lgbt people, let alone doing actual charity work
but some of the things he said were unfortunately extremely funny in hindsight
this is where our daughter or our gay son will sleep
also this absolutely isnt his fault but when he was like “i hope one day the lgbt advocacy group i co-founded isn’t needed anymore :)” and for some reason every website in the world used this fucking headline?
You’re meeting the friend of a friend for the first time, who’s apparently an empath. When they shake your hand, they immediately rip their hand away from you.
