putting someone who died of an overdose after years of struggling with addiction and a mother who tragically died in an accident next to someone who was arrested for child pornography and killed himself in jail is INSANE.
“she was never my ‘wife’ she was my partner. we were equals.” - my dad a few days ago.
remember the origin of “husband” is “master of the house” and “wife” for a very long time implied “property” and some people don’t vibe with that, my parents included.
a group of nazi men were going over war strategies while a jewish woman was in the room because they couldn’t fathom women understanding anything.
now we have wifi. (and snow white).
this is such a weird take because even if i do predominantly date men, that doesn't make me any less queer. can we please leave bi/queerphobia behind us?
people with braces (past or present) really out here shaming people for getting plastic surgery because “altering the way you look to fit societies beauty standards is bad.” ,,,,,,,, what the fuck do you think braces are for???
my mum used to give me two* mental health days every school term to use whenever i wanted, and i’ve gotta say, knowing i could wake up one day and say “i’m using my mental health day today” with no questions asked was such a good thing to have.
obsessed with how these are all described as “not explicitly queer” and they’re all straight artists. no hayley kiyoko? no king princess? girl in red? not even demi lovato? sam smith? troye sivan?????

me: i want a cow tattoo
man: but you’re vegan, why would you want a cow tattoo?
had this conversation a few weeks ago and still haven’t been able to figure it out
phones are not in the bible. twitter is not in the bible. the internet is not in the bible. so please do us all a favour and throw all of them away and go live in a hut in the middle of nowhere with no plumbing or electricity (not in the bible) and live off of the land (no guns)
Oat milk is not in the Bible.
Video games are not in the Bible.
Tofu is not in the Bible.
Gender pronouns are not in the Bible.
Electric vehicles are not in the Bible.
If these things were so good for humanity, why didn’t God give them His endorsement in the Scripture?
“drag queens that go to schools to talk to kids are all pedophiles, why else would they want to be around children?” are teachers and parents all pedophiles now too? be serious. come on.
i know words evolve over time and that’s not what they mean (to a lot of people anyway) any more. and there’s no problem with using those terms. but they aren’t for everyone! use what makes you happy!
i wore headphones in my bedroom for the first time in over six years tonight 🥳🥳
i know it seems small but this is a super big deal for me and i’m really proud of myself.
ptsd means i can’t wear headphones inside my own house because over five years ago my abusive ex showed up on the roof outside my bedroom window (more than once).
getting to the part in therapy when they ask about my family situation and i have to say “so my parents have been divorced for over a decade but my dad refuses to move out so he lives in the basement.” is always fun
seen too many people take this opportunity to invalidate emotional abuse and say shit like “i don’t understand why so many women stay, why don’t they just leave? it’s not that hard.” so i wanted to take a moment to share why, using my experience as a victim.
// tw for abuse //
“kids shouldn’t be able to make life altering decisions like taking hormones” you were pretty quiet when those same kids were killing themselves because they couldn’t get said hormones. tell me which one causes more permanent harm?
using words like “mascara” for topics like this and then sharing it (without a trigger warning too) just feels like searching for misunderstanding and reason to get mad at people. it’s so hard to take these things seriously when they’re hidden under what feels like a joke.
Julia Fox apologizes to TikTok user after being accused of “condoning sexual assault” for a comment she made about his “mascara” story:
“Hey babe I’m so sorry I really thought u were talking about mascara like as in make up.”
our new neighbour is heavily pregnant and upon meeting her she was like “it won’t be a problem, will it?” like,, what am i gonna say? “yeah, actually it will be. you can’t have your baby here, you need to move.” ? obviously i’m gonna say it’s okay.
happiness low key pisses me the fuck off personally, constantly invalidating sadness. let her exist. she’s important and deserves to be felt (which is literally the entire message of the movie). emotions are complex and they all need to be felt and are completely valid.
i worked at a jeans shop, and the amount of times i had to tell women “i’m sorry, but we don’t stock your size” was fucking heartbreaking. a size sixteen is so common and yet nowhere to be found.
every time i walk into a restaurant they ask if i want a vegan menu, completely unprompted. like , yes i do. but you don’t have to remind me of how much of a stereotype i am.
“bad people will be bad. if you take away guns they’ll still to kill people.” you can’t kill six people in under a minute with a fucking knife. you need a gun for what? to protect yourself? from other people with guns? there seems to be a really fucking simple solution to that.
a lot of people don’t know that ten years ago new zealand made it so you could legally to change your gender to x. so on your passport and other official documents you can be male, female or x.
apparently i qualified for a vaccine because i suffer from “severe / life impairing mental illness” and i think it’s pretty cool that mental illness is being recognised as a priority.
this is such a weird take because even if i do predominantly date men, that doesn't make me any less queer. can we please leave bi/queerphobia behind us?
tw abuse

gus johnson’s “i was foolish and said some dumb stuff.” bro, you told your girlfriend you’d dump her if she didn’t get an abortion, accused her of lying about her pain while she was literally dying and refused to go to hospital with her so you could hang with the boys.
tbh idk why my parents actually even got married. they’re both against traditional marriage and it’s origins. they think we should make a brand new thing completely separate to religion and oppression.
you ever click on a tweet you agree with ie “sexism bad” and then make the terrible decision of scrolling down and seeing hundreds of replies that make you no longer want to live on this planet?
washing your hair regularly is giving into capitalism. wash the oil out so your hair create excess oil faster so the cycle repeats and you have to buy shampoo.
i broke the cycle. i haven’t bought shampoo in four years. fuck the system.
missed a call from my doctor, so i called back literally three minutes later and she goes “tbh i don’t know why i called you. i’ve moved on now.” like ????????
you ever remember random things from traumatic times in your life that you’ve repressed and just go “oh yeah. that happened. that’s kinda fucked up.” ?
walked past someone handing out jesus pamphlets and she says “god loves you gays”. fantastic. biggest compliment. v glad my queerness is so noticeable :’)
americans in the US: you’re in america, speak english! enjoy american culture!!
americans anywhere else in the world: i’m american, speak english! also, how dare you not have american food options!!
If you visit Europe and don’t speak the local language, just be polite. Once, in Venice, I saw an American couple yelling at a fruit seller who didn’t speak English. I translated, they asked me for directions to their hotel, and I happily sent them in the very opposite direction.
“back in my day we didn’t worry about sexuality. we just wanted to play football!”
so you’re straight.
go out and ask a queer person you’re age what they were worried about when they were young. because “back in your day” they would have been crucified if they came out. —
i would like to make a formal apology for putting maths on your feeds. i forgot to consider that all my followers are queer and therefore allergic to numbers.
i hope you forgive me.
i’ve somehow been making exclusively gay content for nine months and haven’t come across a single homophobic comment.
sexist? yes. constantly.
but nothing homophobic, and i think that’s pretty cool.
yesterday marked six years since i left my abuser. i’m still healing, but i’ve come so far, and i’m so fucking proud of the person i’ve become. i didn’t know if i would make it. i didn’t think i could ever be happy. but here i am. happy. and so proud.
andrew tate being arrested as a result of throwing a tantrum about a teenage girl ratioing him is hilariously in character. it’s also a great way to end the year.
my dad’s an alcoholic and it’s sixtieth birthday in a couple weeks and his family said they need to send him champagne “we obviously don’t want to encourage it, but it’s his sixtieth so he has to have champagne!” and it’s so ??? alcohol culture is so strange and fucked up.
wild that some people genuinely refuse to accept that “female” and “woman” aren’t the same.
like, imagine calling a female fish a woman, you wouldn’t. because you know it’s a social construct created by and for humans, and it’s fucking weird.
i love when anti-vaxxers say “i don’t want chemicals in my body, it’s unnatural!” do you know what a chemical is? literally everything is made of chemicals. you’re made of chemicals. oxygen is a chemical. everything you touch or consume is chemicals.
be violent and break into government buildings bc you didn’t get your way: 🤩🥰😘😍💕🥳🤪
peacefully protest the disproportionate rate of police killing poc: 😱🤬😤💔🤮🤯😭😡
so you’re telling me there was a whole ass marvel cinematic universe film released today with a cast that almost entirely poc, and no one fucking knew about it? there was no promo, no premier, nothing. this is a fucking set up and it makes me so unbelievably upset
i see so many people thanking men for just for treating women as humans and not taking advantage of us. don’t do that. they don’t deserve praise for that.
you respect me as human being? as you fucking should. you don’t gain points for that.
“men aren’t attracted to that”
oh no! what ever will i do?! something i’m doing won’t attract men?!
it’s almost as though i do things for myself and don’t give a fuck about what men think because i don’t exist for them.
the obsession people have with wanting to watch kids kill each other is horrifying. why do y’all want movies specifically about things we Know. the purpose of THG series is political and social commentary. it’s meant to be horrifying, you’re not meant to want to watch the games.
straight up if anyone did this to me i would get up and leave and never speak to them again.
i feel so so awful for this woman. people’s morals and boundaries aren’t a fucking joke, idgaf if you don’t understand them. respect people’s boundaries.
I'd actually never speak to them again if someone did this to me. Imagine trusting someone enough to eat their food, only for them to completely violate your boundaries. Gross
growing up outside of the US (bc of media propaganda) you view it as this magical place full of opportunities you couldn’t even dream of. it’s so exciting and you d r e a m of one day being able to go. and then you grow up and learn it is actual an fucking hellscape.
i’m twenty-two and could barely imagine myself dating someone who’s twenty. how the FUCK do you, as someone in your thirties, look at a twenty-year-old and think “ahh, yes, i think i’ll date them.” vile.
no way are they telling everyone MyFitnessPal is a must have app
ah yes, the app that has ruined hundreds of thousands if not millions of lives (mine included). thank you so much apple for telling everyone they need it.
“i am against the plan B pill. preventing a potential life is murder! just like abortion!”
so is protected sex, jerking off, and menstruating also murder ??? the fuck are you on ??
happy first birthday to my rainbow hair , a decision that somehow changed the course of my life and powered me to where i am now.
~
here are some photos from the day i first dyed it to celebrate
people in the vacinity of *peaceful* BLM protests were shot at and arrested and trump called them thugs and encouraged authorities to start shooting.
now people break into the white house and are violent towards cops and trump is just saying “pls leave”.
me: i have adhd and struggle with these things
comment: mmmm that doesn’t sound like adhd. adhd actually looks like..... not everything has to be medicalised!
i- i’ve been diagnosed ?????
seventeen minutes into my birthday and i’ve received more birthday wishes than i have in the last,,,,, ever ahahaha. thank you, i love and appreciate you so much 🥺🥺🥺🥺
