This Is Sam Nordquist. He Was A Transgender Man Who Was Lured To My Hometown Back In September By His

probably i just said it but i want to say it again:

- don’t apologise if you don’t know english.

- yes, english is the most common language on the internet but you are not forced to know it perfectly.

- your own language is beautiful.

- non-english people make a huge effort to write in English everyday on this website.

- support non-english people and don’t make them feel bad if they do not know English. 

- actually support all the languages.

- spread more language diversity on Tumblr.

thank you.

Forgot to say that I should probably split my facts into two with all the ones I did get citations for first and then reblog when I get all the other citations

Wanted to do one with their music tastes too but that's a lot (they're so white LMAO)

Here's a tumblr post I have in the drafts that I haven't touched in a hot minute. I'm just too lazy to find sources for some of these. Also I should probably split it into Bread and Banana.

I don't know if some of these are jokes (Bumble; math major)

Bread made jokes about Banana being an english major but I have no clue

Yea its kinda hard sometimes to tell if they're joking or not 😔 I think the bumble one was probably a joke? I interpreted it as a joke when I heard it

I guess something you could add is that bread starts texts with capital letters and banana doesn't? (From the valentines video)

seeing transmisandry truthers try to paint transmisogyny discussion as the newest wave of exclusionism, as ppl saying transmascs don't experience transphobia and don't belong in the queer community, honestly makes my blood boil. how little do you have to care about other people, how thin-skinned do you have to be, to hear that when someone says "you have privilege, please examine how you behave around transfeminine people"

ngl i still think it was crazy when ksi caught all the backlash for lunchly when there were also two other people involved

i guess it was justifiable because ksi did respond directly but im not gonna pretend like mr beast wasn't saying anything about it

Thinking of moving to Cohost...

brendan depa, a diagnosed level 3 autistic black teenager (also with PTSD+ADHD and a number of other diagnoses, including ones that are highly racialized) who has been subject to racist peer abuse/assault, has previously been placed in multiple institutions, grew up homeschooled due to his support needs but was basically forced into public school so that his day program would be covered by APD, and was triggered by an incident in class that involved factors going against his IEP and resulted in him assaulting a teaching aide.

he is being charged with a first degree felony, being tried as an adults, and faces up to 30 years in prison.

media is sensationalizing this as a student beating his teacher because he got his nintendo switch taken away, framing him as a spoiled brat instead of a very traumatized, autistic teenager (who only very recently turned 18) with high support needs whose disabilities significantly impact his emotional regulation and understanding of consequences.

other peers who have similar impairments and who have also assaulted staff were not punished anywhere nearly this severely.

prison could kill him, a punishment for being failed repeatedly by the medical/legal system and placed in an environment that didn't properly meet his support needs, and people are frothing at the mouth to put him there.

it is so, so, so funny to interact with people that don't super know embroidery, who try to pick out which of my projects is more... skilled? or whatever. one time i had someone tell me to my face that my linework wasn't impressive and anyone could do backstitches, and they had learned how to backstitch last week so they could say this. someone else I've been teaching how to sew here and there told me that some patches I made recently and haven't put on this blog yet were true skill and above their skill level - they wanted to start with something easy! like massive block lettering on a stretchy tshirt!

"we need weirder queers" you guys couldnt even handle asexual people in 2016 (and probably still cant handle them)
