i made this for the discord but its important

Ok, so theres like 14 tugboats working on the Ever Given now and the tide is coming in. They MIGHT be able to refloat her today.

As a hilarious side note, THIS apparently happened on a highway in china this morning, which SEEMS like a joke but is apparently real:

in the spirit realm, an evergreen tree has fallen and blocked the River of Life; the material realm will be forced to echo and reenact this higher reality in various ways until the problem is rectified at the source

My thoughts on people who call things that aren’t child grooming “child grooming”, as someone who has been groomed, is that you’re a fucking piece of shit. If it’s not child grooming don’t fucking call it that. Stop presenting shit as being that when it’s actually not that, just because you think that the “extra weight” of such an accusation will somehow make people take things more seriously. Child grooming is a very fucking specific thing and a serious one that shouldn’t be used as extra points in stupid fucking internet crusades.

You can call something predatory and have it be just as horrifying. Something doesn’t need to be grooming for it to be creepy and invasive. If you’re not sure if something’s grooming, you can always just call it predatory! It’s a very good catchall word especially when referring to broad abuses of power!

this keeps coming up, in all sorts of different discourse, so I finally gave up and made it a meme

discourses that this applies to, an incomplete list:

and the answer for all of these is *taps the sign*

me, reaching into my dresser drawer for black pants: I hope this isn’t the pair with big holes worn in the inner thighs

Marie Kondo, gently over my shoulder: why is a pair of pants you find unwearable still in your dresser drawer

me: oh shit that’s right!! The dresser is for clothes that under some circumstance I might conceivably wear!!

Marie Kondo, beaming proudly: Yes, that’s correct!! These pants must have been your favorites. How wonderful that they were so comfortable and practical that you wore them out. But now since they no longer function as pants, you should move them from the drawer where you keep your functioning pants!

me: Yes thanks I got it they’re in the fabric basket now

Marie Kondo, fading back into the darkness: I love what you’ve done with the kitchen!!

The notion of KonMari as some creepy semi-embodied but entirely benevolent spirit, like a well-intentioned Bloody Mary, is so perfect and wonderful.

Marie Kondo has the same powers but the exact opposite energy of the Duolingo Owl.

YES.

Marie Kondo: Your room isn’t very clean, but that’s okay, I love mess! Does this spark joy?

Duolingo Owl: I wrote the ransom note in Spanish, and if you have to use Google Translate to read it, your kid gets it. You broke your streak. I’ll break your neck.

Marie Kondo holding your child, while standing on the remains of the Duolingo Owl : The Bird did not spark joy

a person from 150 years ago would be terrified by modern stuff . however , a duck from 150 years ago would just be all like ,still got lakes? yes ? okay cool

Reblogging again because I thought they changed the quote so I decided to look up the actual quote and it’s not fake that is very much the actual quote

It’s also one of my favorite tags of @elodieunderglass

Ian McKellen  says that all gay people should be trans allies

Sir Ian McKellen urges gay people to be better allies to the transgender community.

The legendary actor and Stonewall co-founder joined It’s a Sin star Olly Alexander for a special LGBT+ History Month talk on TikTok on February 25, Pink News reports. 

Sir Ian said: 

This is not the first time the actor has stood up to transphobes. 

Speaking to lifestyle magazine Attitude, the veteran star talked about how happy he was about Elliot Page coming out as transgender. 

He felt “so disappointed” with himself for not recognizing the struggles that the then-teenage actor could have been facing when they worked together.

The actor talked about why it is important to be honest with oneself.

1. KING SHIT

2. yes

3.”common or garden gay”

I have never played these games, so this is my best guess. 

Hey, just a heads up to everyone who follows my blog: if you see anybody with an orange and black square in their bio, they’re a transphobe.

Idiots on TikTok have been coming out in droves in support of some bullshit identity called “super straight” which basically means that they’re only attracted to cis people 🙄 They’re trying to wedge themselves into the LGBTQ+ community and their claim is that it’s phobic toward them to say that they’re transphobic… it’s just a gargantuan cishet headache.

So, to reiterate: orange and black squares = the “super straight” flag = transphobic dogwhistle. Stay safe everyone!

People have been pointing out additional things in the replies of this post and I’ll summarize them here because it’s important!

These people are extremely bad news. Please block them if you see them.

I want to make an addition! 

If you’re reading this post, or about the subject another thing you can do aside from spreading, blocking, educating yourself and deconstructing biases, etc., etc., is donate to Trans people or Trans mutual aid funds if you’re able.

Examples like The Okra Project, the Trans Women of Colour Collective, the BlkTransFutures collective, Black and Pink, the FTEF, the Black Trans Travel Fund, the BFTA collective, the LGBTQ Freedom Fund,  or the Marsha P. Johnson Institute.

These are literally only some of the available options out there. There’s also different transition funds and donation lists around Tumblr that are organised by trans people (tpoc specially) to help each other and that you can donate, too.

Transphobia isn’t just TERFs outing themselves as Nazis once again, transphobia is also the unsustantiability of trans life by altering the conditions which would otherwise allow us to live — specially of trans people of colour.

Here is another post with many other alternatives.

This is also a time for standing with Jewish trans people, listening to them, and learning from them and standing by them. I, personally, don’t know specific coalitions or groups where you can donate or find other ways to support them. Of course, I’ll personally keep looking, but if you have some, make them circulate.

Fuck TERFs, fuck Nazis, block them and ridicule them but most importantly stand in solidarity with the groups which are the most affected by transphobia and Nazism.

the looney tunes lady rabbit redesign discourse is distracting everyone from the fact that the movie's plot is about lebron james and his son being sucked into the digital world of the Warner Bros server farm by an evil AI that wants to steal lebron's instagram followers, so in order to escape they must find and reunite the looney tunes, who in this universe are merely digital fictional characters who do not exist in real life. characters from other WB-owned properties such as mad max, the matrix, dc, and fucking casablanca will also make appearances. this is not space jam 2. this is an unholy fusion of ready player one and wreck-it ralph 2.

not a single word of this is made up
