Taking this opportunity to say how absolutely disgusting the riots currently going on in the UK are
like I try to keep this blog fun and lighthearted but Jesus Christ
far right maniacs like Tommy Robinson and Nigel Farage are using the deaths of three girls to spread hatred and lies about immigrants, Muslims and people of colour and this is not ok
people have been hurt by these riots, a library near my hometown has been burned. I can’t leave my house.
it’s important we call out the lies and misinformation spread by these fascist grifters, who are trying to sew hatred and violence in my country
and I feel the need to emphasise that the murders of Alice Dasilva Aguiar, who was nine, Elsie Dot Stancombe, who was seven, and Bebe King, who was six, were horrific events that should not have happened. That does not, however, justify the racism fuelled riots across the country. Axel Rudakubana was born in Britain and has not had his religion verified but his vile actions are being used to vilify all immigrants and Muslims. Call out lies and behaviour like this because the real horrifying impacts are happening just down the road from me. Thank you for reading and pls reblog and share <3
I don’t know what’s funnier: the implication that these penguins know enough about imps to have slurs for them that can’t be repeated on this show, or the implication that Blitzø speaks penguin
one of the reasons it’s really hard for a lot of intersex people when intersex topics are on the news cycle is because the public’s reaction reveals how little anyone knows or cares about intersex people, including people who call themselves our allies. almost every time intersex topics are trending, the discourse surrounding them is filled with misinformation. people who only learned today what the word intersex means jump into conversations and act like an authority. endosex/dyadic/perisex people get tripped up over things that are basically intersex 101, with tons of endosex people incorrectly arguing about the definition of intersex, who “counts,” DSD terminology, and so much more. i’ve seen multiple endosex people say today that they’ve been “warning intersex people” and that we should have known that transphobia would catch up with us eventually, which is an absolutely absurd thing to say given the fact that consistently over the past ten years, it has often been intersex people sounding the alarm on sex-testing policies and also the fact that many, many intersex people are also trans, and already are facing the impacts of transphobia. there is an absolute failure from the general public to take intersex identity seriously; people seem not even able to fathom that intersex people have a community, history, and our own political resources. instead, endosex people somehow seem to think they’re helping by bringing up half-remembered information from their high school biology class which usually isn’t even relevant at all.
and this frustrates me so fucking much. not because i want to deny the impacts of transphobic oppression–i’m a trans intersex person, trust me when i say i am intimately aware of transphobia. this frustrates me because there is no way we can achieve collective liberation if our “allies” fail to even engage with basic intersex topics and are seemingly unaware of the many forms of intersex oppression that we are already facing every fucking day. if you are not aware of compulsory dyadism, if you are not aware of interphobia, if you are not aware of the many different ways that intersex people are directly and often violently targeted–how the fuck do you think we’re going to dismantle all of these systems of oppression?
if you were truly an intersex ally, you would already KNOW that this is not new, and would not be surprised–interphobia in sports has been going on for decades. you would know that we do have a community, an identity, a history–you would have already read/listened/watched to intersex resources that give you the background information you need for allyship. you would know that although there is a really distinct lack of resources and political education, that intersex people ARE developing a political understanding of ourselves and our oppression–Cripping Intersex by Celeste Orr and their framework of compulsory dyadism is one example of how we’re theorizing our oppression. It’s absolutely fucking wild to me how few people I’ve seen actually use words like “interphobia” “intersexism” “compulsory dyadism” or “intersex oppression”–endosex people are seemingly incapable of recognizing that there is already an entrenched system of oppression towards intersex people that violently reshapes our bodies, restricts our autonomy, and attempts to eradicate intersex through a variety of medical and legal means.
you cannot treat intersex people like an afterthought. not just because we’re meaningful parts of your community and deserving of solidarity, but also because intersex oppression impacts everyone!!! especially trans community–trans people will not be free until intersex people are free, so much of transphobia is shaped by compulsory dyadism, the mythical sex binary, all these ideas of enforced “biological sex” that are just as fake as the gender binary.
it makes me absolutely fucking livid every time this shit happens because it becomes so abundantly clear to me how little the average endosex person knows about intersex issues and also how little the average endosex person cares about changing that. i don’t know what to say to get you to care, to get you to change that, but we fucking need it to happen and i, personally, am tired of constantly being grateful when i meet an endosex person who knows the bare minimum. i think we have a right to expect better and to demand that if you’re going to call yourself our ally, you actually fucking listen to us when we tell you what that means.
This is why every vote matters. YOUR vote matters. Please vote!
Actually that’s exactly how it works. Here, lemme break down the numbers. I’ll be using the 2020 presidential election voter turnout.
In 2020, the total U.S. population was about 332,450,000.
Of that number, about 240,000,000 were eligible to vote.
Of eligible voters, only about 66.1% actually voted. And that’s a high turnout, historically speaking.
Of the 158,427,986 eligible voters who actually voted,
81,283,501 voted for Biden. That’s 24.5% of the overall U.S. population.
74,223,975 voted for Trump. That’s 22% of the overall U.S. population.
(I’m guessing the graphic used updated number from 2024 for population size.)
But yes, that’s exactly how it all works. Not everyone in the U.S. is eligible to vote (sometimes due to voter suppression, but also due to being too young).
Of those who ARE eligible to vote, as many didn’t vote as voted for either Biden or Trump.
Who wins is determined by who fucking shows up to vote.
Democracy works exactly as well as how much you participate in it.
Trump voters are only 22% of the general population.
They’re only 31% of eligible voters.
They’ll be easy to defeat.
IF PEOPLE ACTUALLY FUCKING VOTE.
Which is why it’s important to pair posts like this with actual resources on, for example:
See, the thing a lot of people don’t get is, the US system is designed to SUPPRESS AND DENY votes. Fun fact for those who went to school elsewhere: none of the stuff I linked is actually required learning in our schools. Followup fact: the reason I mention financial assistance for ID cards is, our free ID (social security card) is not valid for voting in half of states; expensive photo IDs are required.
For the Americans, you must understand: Most places with elections take the exact opposite approach. Do you know how fucked up it is that in the US you can’t even get a whole day off work, despite voter queues often being several hours long due to lack of polling places? How absolutely pigshit bonkers it is that people have to PAY to vote (via ID fees)?
The international folks are appalled because that’s fucked up! 18% picking your president is unhinged! It actually truly does represent a broken system!
In other words this is a real, systemic issue that can take years to overcome IF you even have the ability to do it at all.
If you’re lucky enough not to face any of the hurdles, stay informed on the subject so you can help the rest of us out.
Voter suppression is not caused by personal moral failing.
cant get over hearing people rightfully going “hey the haunted self is horrible and one of the guys who wrote it lost his license for malpractice” and falling back on “uhhhh. tosd is from the 1800s actually so it’s #stood the test of time” is hysteria real also
mysterious how despite both the authors of the haunted self and tumblr users sysmedsaresexist having, as far as you can tell by the way they talk about it, direct psychic pipelines to pierre janet’s intent 60 and 80 years after the fact respectively they have come to such different conclusions 🤔 really makes you think
I should really start signing my art but it’s so funny seeing it out in the wild and seeing people question its origins
Just the other day I saw on Pinterest my sans x reigen art right up there beside one of my Jesus paintings and somehow the comments were similar in vibe
“who is drawing Jesus with minecraft sheep???” ME. I am
For everyone in the notes asking about Jesus and the Minecraft sheep
Actually, with a sample size of 23, assuming they were selected with minimal bias, this is pretty significant evidence that micro plastics are common in human testicles.
23 is a bit low(you want 30+ for a really good sample) but *every one* has micro plastics.
Obviously, the claim that there are micro plastics in all human testicles is a dubious claim but the likelihood of getting a sample of 23 where every single person has microplastics if, for example, half the Population has micro plastics is 1 in 8,388,609.
thank you for being the one person in the reblogs with an understanding of statistics
just gonna share these tags too prev because they’re also good
i also woke up in the middle of the night today and i felt the impulse to grab my phone but not even joking i stopped myself by conjuring this image in my brain so i just went back to sleep
if there are any witches or wizards reading this and if it isn’t too much trouble can you please send a spell at me? it can be any spell you want but please send kind spells, life is hard enough as is
i LOVE the idea of “i can’t win, but you can lose” in fictional confrontations it is SO fucking tasty. the human nature to self destruct and the human nature to survive by any means necessary combined at its finest.
Honestly, I love the idea of a vampire who only drinks blood taken from blood banks and hospitals, because it so beautifully encompasses someone who’s more concerned with the vibes of something than the actual impact of it.
Drinking from someone on the street, barring some other condition they may have, isn’t likely to kill them unless you gorge yourself. Taking blood packs? There’s always a shortage of blood, and having even less of it runs the very real risk of getting someone killed in a way that is wholly out of your control once you’ve sipped on that blood. Someone you can’t assure the innocence or guilt of, if you’re the type of person who cares about that.
Despite that, in popular stuff, I often see discussions of drinking from a blood bank being somehow better or preferable, and yeah. No. The only thing it does is make you feel better while doing more harm, because of that degree of removal. You’re effectively drinking blood from someone on the cusp of hypovolemic shock, but since it’s not straight from the tap, some people seem to think it’s better.
“amab genitalia” doesn’t mean anything. There are intersex amabs with genitalia different from most perisex cis men’s. there are transfeminine amabs who’ve gotten surgery which makes their genitalia different from most cis men’s. if you mean “having a dick”, or perisex cis male genitalia, then say that
Edit: and even “perisex cis male” doesn’t narrow it down! It’s rare, but they can also have genitalia that doesn’t conform to your expectations. Penis, scrotum, vagina, vulva and etc. are not bad words!
