090. hello! today is the international transgender day of visibility and i am trans!

it's been a very tough year for a lot of us already, so i'd like to encourage people to donate what they can to any trans mutual aid efforts they see and open the floor for other folks to drop their own donation links in the notes of this post. i hope things get easier soon. in the meantime, support trans people. please.

It's Trans Day of Visibility 🥳 Being seen is a wonderful thing in lots of ways, and it's good to celebrate that!

But it's not always safe to put yourself out there, and sometimes you'd just rather keep your head down. So, for anyone who needs to hear this:

Ya'll read this thread ! It's not something I have actively thought about but I think they make a great point here.

this constant fear of being too much for everyone else

this scene is so important��

PLEASE reblog, I have heard it on a couple of podcasts now and I'm genuinely curious how common it is! Also, if you feel comfortable with it, let me know what your accent normally is (Midwestern, Southern, New Englander, New Yorker, Minnesotan, whatever).

reblog if you wear glasses. too many mutuals don't know they have glasses wearers in their midsts

I was told today that I, a disabled trans person with very little job security, am complicit in transphobia every time I don't call out my colleagues for their transphobic jokes. so. I just want to say:

I support calling transphobes out on their bigotry, and I support protecting other trans people, but please don't feel bad if you can't do that. if you are a particularly vulnerable trans person I would actively encourage you to make an action plan for these kinds of tricky situations

and to cis people who are in relatively safe positions: THIS is why it's so important that you speak up for us. if you are able to do so, please intervene when your fellow cis people are being transphobic. we need allies now more than ever

She ain't even subtle anymore lmao

bpd-hoardic

had these images attached

she's outright saying she believes queer people are murderers when all we want is to be treated equal. from the murders of queer people, we know murder does not create equality

Oh, this immediately set off antisemitic and fascist alarms in my head.

That isn't a dog whistle, that's an air siren.

It’s a simple calculation. If you believe that teaching boys not to rape will lead to the eradication of all rape in our society, then let me know we can expect that to happen. How long will it take? How much teaching? How can we make certain everyone with a male human in their lives do the teaching? Got these answers? No? Then we need to teach girls and women how to protect themselves. This CLEARLY does not mean to not teach boys to not rape but you are deeply naive if you believe every boy is going to follow those teachings. We will be rid of rape as soon as we get rid of lying, stealing and killing. Until then, give girls and women the tools to protect themselves. Not doing so does a disservice to them.

I’ve known and still know rape victims. Three things I’ve learned from them is that (1) it’s never ever the victim’s fault, (2) rape is one of the most evil things human do to one another (3) and as a father of a future daughter (I assume) I’m going to give her all the tools and teachings she needs to protect herself from those monsters (self defense classes, high self esteem, body language reading skills, weapons training and etc).

Get this through your thick heads, the idea of giving women the tools to protect themselves is NOT victim blaming. It’s victim prevention. Just like teaching a child to not talk to strangers, follow strangers or take candy from a stranger is not about blaming the child but about protecting him or her against predators, we aught to be giving girls and women what they need to protect themselves against predators like R Kelly. Do all the things!

Would appreciate it if each time you take a stab (vote) you would invite others to the Theater of Pompey (reblog)

No one:

To people who are desperately asking for fundz/donations on tumblr.

USE THESE REDDIT SUBS INSTEAD PLEASE FOR GOODNESS SAKE!!!!!!!!!

Hate Reddit if you want, but using these subs are your best chance. People gather in these subs because they have charity to spare:

I never see anyone actually getting any significant donations on tumblr and to be honest, tumblr is the worst place to ask for assistance. Use it as your last resort, it frustrates me to no end seeing people begging for help, reblogging the same post over and over, the same types of posts over and over, to no avail, when people are waiting to help you on a different part of the web��
GO TO WHERE THE HELP IS. IF YOU WANT DIRECT ACTION TO WORK STOP WITH TUMBLR AND USE REDDIT.

PLEASE FOR THE LOVE OF SATAN REBLOG THIS SO WE CAN START REDUCING THE AMOUNT OF DONATION POSTS THAT GET STUCK FLOATING AROUND THIS WEBSITE

Hope this can help some people over here too

I know some of our community have been stuck in hard spots and this has a LOT of resources

Reblog if you think asexuality is a legitimate sexuality.

I'm trying to prove something.

cmoon-rabbit4-blog

Reblog if your blog is a safe place for asexuals.

In the face of governments across the world bringing forth and passing legislation to ban gender affirming healthcare, being able to live openly in society as a trans person, and hate crimes against the trans community, we still have this. We say fuck you. (x) (resources for trans people: glaad, international trans equality, international trans map resources)

Hey, everyone going to the senate meeting on Wednesday, do you think we should do something for ceaser?

cabybapa

here is the link to the petition, i think since it is a parliamentary petition it should only be signed by canadian citizens, but if I am wrong please correct me.

allthecanadianpolitics

Yes, only Canadians can sign.

If you can’t sign, please reblog to spread the word.
