so I got into grad school today with my shitty 2.8 gpa and the moral of the story is reblog those good luck posts for the love of god
I can't believe this. A refugee camp was just bombed by Israel and they took full credit for it. 400+ people dead in one fell swoop. And nothing about Palestine or Gaza is trending on Tumblr. IDK if this is information suppression (@staff) or if everybody is just trying to pretend like it's not happening.
But we can't stop talking about it! It's exhausting, it's numbing, it's devastating! But it's also so, so important. Please continue to call representatives, continue to spread Palestinian voices, continue to do whatever you can. This is a genocide that's getting worse every hour and we can't get distracted!
A message to everyone :
Ever since I began this blog and continuously shared its content, I never asked any of you to follow me, share these posts, or use the Blaze feature to promote them. I've been entirely absorbed in writing articles and translating stories and posts from the people of Gaza without concerning myself with whether they will reach a broad audience or not. My initial goal was to reach any number of individuals, even if it was just one person, in the hope of increasing their awareness. That would have been sufficient for me.
But today, particularly after the recent news confirming the complete shutdown of the internet, electricity, and communications in Gaza, along with the isolation imposed by the Israeli occupation and the brutal and savage bombings happening now as I write these lines, I want everyone to share what's happening. Not just on Tumblr but everywhere you can. Share on WhatsApp, Twitter, Instagram, and for those who are proficient in Russian, share on platforms like VK. If you know Korean, share in Naver cafes. Share with your family, your loved ones, and those you meet on the street. Let everyone know about the monstrous massacres the occupation is committing against Palestinian civilians, teenage girls and young women who have become widows due to the bombings, young children whose lives were forcibly taken from them while they clung to life, and the elderly who hoped for a longer life or a peaceful death beside their children and families, but the occupation robbed them of this, making the old man witness the deaths of all his family members, his children, and his grandchildren, and then he dies alone, hoping to join them.
O People, humans, whether you are Muslims, Christians, Jews, or followers of any religion, my message is for those of you who have humanity, whatever your identity may be. Your silence today means you are participating in an extermination worse than what Hitler did to the Jews, even worse than the victims of all the world wars combined. At that time, there weren't sufficient means of communication, so everyone's excuse was that they couldn't do anything except publish in newspapers. But today, in our current era, there are many available options. So, what's your excuse now?
Your silence and inaction are permission for them to continue their slaughter and the extraction of souls from their bodies. Let everyone do whatever is within their power, and all of us should know that we can do a lot.
let the world never forget that it’s AMERICAN weapons being used to wipe out Gaza. that it’s AMERICAN tax money funding this genocide while the AMERICAN president and AMERICAN leaders support this mass murder of innocent people. let the world never forget America has Palestinian blood on its hands
Reblogs and replies got disabled, surprise surprise.
Reblog while you still can.
Just so like... it's clear... anyone who censors words that contain "man" or "men" to anything like "xxn" that's TERF shit.
Any reference to women/womanhood that solely revolves around having a uterus or "womb" is TERF shit.
Any sentence where the OP says they support people being "trans identified" with quotes around ""transwomen"" or ""transmen"" is TERF shit.
I'm seeing a lot of you baby Tumblr gays out there not knowing what these specific TERF dogwhistles look like.
"Wombxxn" is an incredibly dumb way of spelling "woman" that treats the word "man" like a slur and also reduces women to their ability to give birth.
"Trans identified" is their way of saying "this person calls themselves trans, but I don't believe they are."
Saying "People should be allowed to identify however they wish, but we still need to protect women/children" IS TERF SHIT.
Learn to identify this garbage, because not all TERFs are going to spell out their intolerance for you. Some of them are going to try and seem reasonable and polite and normal, and it's fucking dangerous to our community.
Also unpack any internalized transphobia and your transmedicalism, because both those things will have you quickly siding with TERFs and bigots.
reblog if you:
- are aromantic and want to kill
- think aromantic people should be allowed to kill
- think fish are pretty cool
If you happen to stumble upon an ad that looks like this, DO NOT SCROLL DOWN.
The rest of the ad is a very tall GIF of strobing red light that can potentially cause seizures. You cannot scroll past this ad quickly enough to avoid seeing it.
There seems to be no way to report the ad, so the next best thing is to use an adblocker (if you haven’t already) or even stay off the mobile app.
Please reblog to help spread awareness.
Reblog to give a trans woman a delicious Cuban sandwich
"The trannies should be able to piss in whatever toilet they want and change their bodies however they want. Why is it my business if some chick has a dick or a guy has a pie? I'm not a trannie or a fag so I don't care, just give 'em the medicine they need."
"This is an LGBT safe space. Of COURSE I fully support individuals who identify as transgender and their right to self-determination! I just think that transitioning is a very serious choice and should be heavily regulated. And there could be a lot of harm in exposing cis children to such topics, so we should be really careful about when it is appropriate to mention trans issues or have too much trans visibility."
One of the above statements is Problematic and the other is slightly annoying. If we disagree on which is which then working together for a better future is going to get really fucking difficult.
Hey yeah in the midst of all the hype and the strikes, can we PLEASE fucking talk about this

Speaking as a Pakistani it’s very telling the difference in media attention between the Greek boat tragedy and the Titan.
One was filled with hundreds of migrants, majorly from Pakistan who went there in search of a better life. People who are suffering due to Pakistan’s worst economic crisis in decades from rampant corruption.
The Titan had one of Pakistan’s richest men Shahzada Dawood onboard along with his son. They each paid 250,000 US dollars for a ticket. That money is equivalent to 71 million Pakistani rupees converted.
The people on the Titan risked their lives for fun. They were warned multiple times on the front page alone of the contract that this could risk death and yet they did it anyway, and they paid the price.
The migrants onboard risked their lives not for fun, but for a better future. They saw no other option, no better way and they risked their lives to provide a better future for themselves and their family.
They were risking their lives because of the rampant corruption and economic crisis in Pakistan. Corruption caused by its richest men. Men like Shahzada Dawood, who was named on the Panama Papers along with his father. Who’s legacy came from helping a Pakistani dictator in the 70s, one who helped murder labour activists.
One gets the scorn of the world and the other gets worldwide sympathy and media attention because to them? Only rich people matter.
This whole fiasco is over folks, we should be revolting and shedding light instead on the 750 migrants that had their boat capsize with the Greek government barely batting an eye.
Pride is not pride without including disabled queer people. 🌈
hi my names tyler i’m a trans bi guy and i recently got kicked out by my physically abusive homophobic mother and am experiencing housing instability, because of this i had to move states with my two cats to stay with my partner and get a new job and currently i am only being scheduled twice or three times a week and my paycheck is mostly dependent on tips, as you can imagine it’s been incredibly stressful and i’ve been developing canker sores bc of it, something id get frequently while living with my abusive mother and they make it rlly hard to eat or drink
i just had to go to an urgent care visit that was 30 dollars copay and my insurance didn’t cover the medicine they prescribed so i had to pay 80 dollars out of pocket, if i could get any financial help i’d really appreciate it as i still need to fill my car tank this week and get more cat food, and unfortunately i’m only scheduled twice this week again and really don’t want to reach into my savings bc i am in the process of attempting to get secure housing, i have a gofundme post with a more detailed explanation of events if needed, anything is appreciated i would’ve held off on getting my prescription but i’m in a lot of pain rn sorry, happy pride month and thank you !
