after my gay tortoise wedding crasher experience i feel like there’s a nonzero chance that tony’s handler will see this somehow im sorry if i didn’t remember what you looked like accurately, i was distracted by your shirt and the cutest puppy i ever saw in my life
normalize asking ‘who gave it to you?’ after complimenting someone’s name
they might go into a story about how their aunt on their dad’s side had this cool experience that inspired their name, or they might joyfully say 'meee!!’ or they might just laugh and tell you their mom did. many such delightful possibilities
you fools. this post is an opportunity to share your cool name stories. i say this as a person with a really boring name story. the most interesting thing about my name is that it gets mistaken for another, more common name with a similar spelling
October 14, 1977, Anita Bryant is pied for her antigay bigotry at a press conference in Des Moines, IA.
It was 40 years ago today…
Never gets old.
40 years on and it still is gratifying
Anita’s still alive and kicking and being anti-gay. Thom Higgins, who threw the pie when he was 27 – and was poetically from Beaver Dam – passed away 17 years later at 44. Info on his life is here. The pie throwing was a big deal. In an age before the internet let gays feel connected, and long before ACT UP, the pie showed small pockets of gays that we could fight back.
it showed that gays were human beings, who might be in the room with you, that you had been accepting as being equals and treating as people. you didnt suspect them as bieng gay, why should you treat them different after? do they become less human after finding out?
i mean, its almost like you just found out they have an oppinion on your bullshit
She was “pied” on TV. All across the country, people got to see proof that the LGBT community weren’t going to just sit there and take it. People who thought they had no choice but to stay silent saw a horrible woman get humiliated on live TV.
sometimes i think about how like… you can just install stuff places. most people probably wouldn’t know you’re doing it rogue. like i could just put a bench somewhere. it’s not that hard if you have a high powered hammer drill, some zap-its, and some pour rock. probably would get in trouble if you got caught but like how many people would even question it if someone in a hi vis vest in broad daylight started doing something like that? sometimes i think about these things.
friendly reminder that you don’t need any diagnosis or disorder to adapt your routine to accommodate you! sit down in the shower. brush your teeth and wash your face in the shower. bring a chair to the kitchen while you cook. use unscented products. your routine should be built for you.
Can i add? You also don’t need any diagnosis or disorder to use things that will improve your life. Use a cane, install a shower chair, use a kid app for brushing your teeth if it helps to maintain your attention. You don’t need permission to make your own life better.
living in a village of farmers is the fucking best i just left a party and the butcher was like hey i got some bones for your dog. your dog specifically because i like the cut of his jib. hell yeah

Tumblr is so cool it's like a site of history and the ancients sit there and tell you about the coolest thing a website could ever do and say that was tumblr..... and then they cry while you're like woaaaaaa..
Human rights as defined in the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, related documents and common sense (for example, the UDHR article about marriage is outdated)
Examples of human rights include:
The right to live,
The right to a fair trail,
The right to bodily autonomy (someone cannot be owned as a slave),
Scientific fraud is the most baffling thing ever to me like do they think they’re just going to make a huge breakthrough and no one will notice that it’s fake by trying to replicate their results
Yeah actually I just discovered how to turn plastic into gold. Oh you want to know how I did it
being poor is so mind numbingly boring. you can’t afford hobbies, leisure activities, games, books, music, transportation for going to places, some people can’t afford internet or a phone. entertainment is seen as a complete and total luxury, but what people don’t realize is that people need to be entertained.
there is nothing left to do for fun that’s completely free. parks are tiny and meant for dogs, mostly, they’re unsanitary as hell because there’s mostly just dog waste everywhere. getting to the park costs money. kids and adults alike cannot just go “play outside”. adults aren’t even allowed to “play,” we gawk at adults who stop to play with bugs or look at small animals. adults aren’t allowed to play pretend it’s seen as weird. kids don’t have anywhere to go- they’re considered “loitering” or an annoyance if they hang around anywhere for too long. not everyone can go to bars.
it is necessary for our mental health to have things to keep ourselves entertained with. people often get caught up on a poor person having one nice thing for themselves, but after a while, that 1 nice thing gets boring, too. people need variety. we need stimulation. we need input. we need to experience the world, too
i was told by my own therapist and case worker that people need entertainment and happiness to survive. humans are not wired to suffer 24/7, no one has to earn entertainment. if you think i’m pulling things out of my ass, i’m not. multiple mental health professionals in my own life have confirmed that people need to have fun or their health will suffer. mental health is connected to physical health. you know nothing if you think this is factually inaccurate.
poor people shouldn’t be relegated to boredom and never experiencing life and what the world has to afford. the entirety of entertainment should not be paywalled. people should not have to pay entry for every single event in their area, or try to find free events and struggle to pay for the transportation. it’s not good for your mental health.
brb the whole discord in an uproar at the UNCONSCIONABLE results of Mister Global 2022
seriously though, MR. SPAIN?!
Mr Spain vs the runner up Mr Vietnam. Like. How the fuck?
Looking very respectfully at Mr. Vietnam
I mean personally I was in favor of Mr. Peru and Mr. Nigeria but I can fully agree Spain can get out of there.
Tbh mr spain looks like a piece of art compared to britain and cuba’s costumes
SE asia brought the thunder
Alright you guys I found all 33 of them, and it seems there’s three schools of thought for the costumes: Just Some Guy (tends to be more traditional or modern clothing), Slutty Halloween Costume, and Balls To The Wall Batshit Insanity. I can’t pick a favorite, so here they all are in alphabetical order by country:
(By virtue of there being 33, which doesn’t split into groups of 4 evenly, Vietnam gets to be the big photo.)
When I was a kid edgy alternative teens/tweens used to draw scary gory demented vent art and it was literally fine cause it was just kids trying to act ~sick and twisted~ in like a quirky way to cope with the world like literally just reading JTHM and going “that’s so cool I wanna draw like that” but nowadays a kid can’t draw like a Nightmare Before Christmas-esque creepy face without a bunch of true crime girlies going “oh my god they’re literally the next Jeffrey Dahmer their parents need to put them under observation or something before they start murdering animals or something”
“Obsession with dark and violent things is a warning sign of being a future killer”
Have you literally ever met an emo kid? They’ll draw demons and ghouls bleeding out of every orifice and threatening each other with big knives and then cry when they find a dead bunny in their yard
Creature concept: a humanoid creature that looks like a medieval plague doctor, but the beak snout is solid and it sticks its long tongue out of the peak like an anteater. Don’t know what it would eat though.
Hi we moved into the new place yesterday. Again, we intend to try to cam out of the room, but we would appreciate any help towards next months rent/food/gas/utilities, and also again my SRS date is 7/25/24, so I’ll be recovering from that for a while after that. I needed more privacy than I got at Jikijij’s, and I trusted him less over time. I still trust Collie more. Idk. Is what it is. Collie still has her phelgm/athsma/possible long covid thing so that’s why we’re gonna try to cam. Perhaps amongst replacing the van finally and using that for smth soon. The rent is 622/mo.
Collie just received 30, so 77.77 is what we have rn. Not sure if that was from this post or her own post but I haven’t received any donations since the 29th.
btw the objective in pointing out that bro, sis, man, girl, dude, ma'am, sir, etc. are gendered terms and can and do make a lot of people dysphoric isn’t to kill your fun, it’s to point out that we collectively need to stop tacking on unnecessarily gendered language in day to day speech, especially ones that directly attack or undermine the identity of the person you’re talking to, but also in general.
You fool, assuming I’m a dog girl just because I’m trans. I’m a cat girl, the classic, the original. If you tell me what to do I’m gonna lay down and stare at you. If you tell me I’m a good girl my claws are going in your face
You may leave it near me and I’ll deign to investigate when it pleases me.
This is allowed. Perhaps I’ll let you brush me later.
The strap is real it’s alive it’s part of you a part of your soul and body is inside that commanding it,and you can astral project your nerve endings onto it with great ease and experience everrything it does. because it Loves You.
Whenever I reblog a post and someone almost immediately reblogs it back I feel like an old person feeding bread crumbs to ducks, like “feast my little duckling friends! Feast on the quality bread I found for you!”
So I haven’t seen any pieces addressing to this specific event from Shamura’s quote, so I decided to take it into my own hands. With angst of course. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Being hyper-secretive online is probably the only good kneejerk reaction boomers have put into our heads twenty years ago and now both them and the next generation look at you like you’re a freak if you don’t list your social security number in your carrd.
