Don't look away from us. Don't ignore the Oklahoman queer community. Don't ignore the indigiqueer community. Don't forget Nex Benedict and the future they should have been entitled to.
the human rights campaign has a petition to remove ryan walters from office, if you're in the US please consider signing.
learning the earth's inner core is solid--that messed me up. but learning it is also squishy? that fixed me
earth's inner core is a solid iron ball, which hurt my feelings bc i always thought it was molten liquid (turns out that's the outer core.) thankfully, it is also "surprisingly soft like butter." this is because its atoms are wiggly.
Something about that cop saying Nex was just as guilty as the girls who beat them up so badly they blacked out and how cops treat native youth.
Something about the media calling it a fight and not a murder, not a hate crime and how MMIWG2S+ are never looked for, never investigated, never seen as victims.
Something about the media portraying them as the aggressor and native youth always being seen as the aggressor, even in death.
Something about the hospital who released them despite going through head trauma and how the medical system ignores native people, and how the medical system was created through experimentation on native people.
Something about trans youth being told to “just leave” and Oklahoma being their homelands.
Something about Oklahoma legislature and two spirit people existing in Oklahoma before Oklahoma existed.
Something about Nex’s Indigenous identity being erased in every news article, every post, and how that was the stated goal of the USA upon which it was founded.
In case you lost it - a link to the eSIM donation guide. Even if you feel sick and powerless, you can at least do this. And even if you really, really can't donate, you can always at least share this and remind others.
the lowest tier, which costs 9 dollars, offers a week of connection while the very next, 16 dollars, will provide a full month of contact with the world to someone who desperately needs it. this is not some idle step. an entire month is a huge length of time for people who are displaced, terrified, and isolated.
hi do y'all mind if i misuse this blog entirely for a second. idk why i'm asking i don't actually care they found a new snake it's a New Snake we didn't know about this snake before!!!!
NEW SNAKE HELL YEAH!!!!
So this explains all the reports of massive, weird anacondas. It’s not titaniboa or anything, it’s nothing cryptozoological… It’s just a big a$$ snake. That we just… Hadn’t realized was an actual snake and not people exaggerating how big another snake was. Just… The biggest snake currently. And we just… We'rent listening when locals said “hey there’s a lot of really big snakes here. Like, weirdly big snakes. Like these snakes can eat children.” And all the scientists (white folks) were like “nah, they must just be anacondas that you couldn’t tell how big they were” and the locals were like “nah, we know how big it is, it crossed a road in town but none of us wanted to get close enough to put down a ruler to prove how big it was. Look at it, it’s huge.” And the scientists (white folks) were like “exaggerating”
“My name is Aaron Bushnell. I am an active duty member of the United States Air Force and I will no longer be complicit in genocide. I am about to engage in an extreme act of protest, but compared to what people have been experiencing in Palestine at the hands of their colonizers, it’s not extreme at all. This is what our ruling class has decided will be normal. Free Palestine.”
—Aaron Bushnell
“The act of an American soldier sacrificing himself for Palestine is the highest sacrifice […] a poignant message to the American administration to stop its involvement in the aggression.”

why didn’t gandalf just carry the ring to mordor himself with these tongs
like i’m picturing him being really careful and looking at it and carrying it exactly like this while walking or riding through the woods and across rivers and up mountains and through valleys and he doesn’t drop it even once except at the very end where he tidily drops it into the volcano. frodo sam and the crew and even gollum wholly undisturbed. sauron can’t find him bc of the meditative aura surrounding him which is generated by his immense focus on not dropping it
World's most tense egg and spoon race
this somehow became the funniest thing on earth in my head and I had to draw it so
it’s so insane we have to just keep showing up for work. no matter what is happening globally, locally, personally, you’re supposed to show up and act like the formatting on a report is actually really important and demands your attention.
Me, drifting to sleep at the end of a productive, if long, day, which I got to see @faketwinbrothersmom and step-dad and their dog and cat at the end of: -.- snrt, mimimimi….
Me, remembering that tomorrow morning is the very first day I get to wake up with my brand spankin’ new LEGAL NAME CHANGE in effect: O.O MY NAME’S LEGALLY DYNAMO NOW!?!?1?!?!? I MADE IT?!?!?!?!?!
Announcer voice like “please welcome…. Dynamo? with a fancy piece of paper stamped and embossed from the courthouse saying it’s really Dynamo now, officially.”
Hit up the social security office, the dol, the bank, work, and stopped in at the library to update my name there too (right across the road from the dol) so I just gotta update insurance/doctors/assistance people and my therapist is gonna have paperwork ready for me to sign at our next appointment. :’) Feels gender euphoric, y'all. Feels gender euphoric.
I didn't know predstrogen or her blog but that doesn't matter to me and it shouldn't matter to you. if they came for her they will come for you. if you're not trans they will come for you when they're done with them.
hate doesn't start and end with one target, it morphs and amalgamates until no one is safe, and it lashes out a lot.
Also worth noting it had started with black bloggers alongside transgender bloggers. And even Palestinian bloggers in the face of the current genocide.
The real number of people who've been scorched Earth I can't even begin to comprehend as we usually only hear about it when its popular bloggers like Trans Mom or Predstrogen. The fact that even they were treated with such absolute cruelty means there had to have been so many more that went without any public outcry or knowing.
HI IM JAMMERJENNY THE BLOG ABOVE AND YOU WOULD NOT BELIEVE WHAT TUMBLR STAFF JUST DID TO ME
I reblogged this 35 minutes ago. The commenter yaoivriska was still a living blog. Since then, the blog has been terminated.
First they came for the Communists
And I did not speak out
Because I was not a Communist
Then they came for the Socialists
And I did not speak out
Because I was not a Socialist
Then they came for the trade unionists
And I did not speak out
Because I was not a trade unionist
Then they came for the Jews
And I did not speak out
Because I was not a Jew
Then they came for me
And there was no one left
To speak out for me

Non-trans, Non-lgbt folks… If you stay silent you’ll be next. This has happened before. Not with the same people, sure, but it has, and multiple times.
