Fandom pro tip: engage with fandom based on what you love, not what you hate. Goes for ships and characters, plot points etc.
Honestly as a blind person Iβm so tired of seeing fictional blind characters who donβt use white canes or other guides. βThey have special powers so they know whatβs around themβ or βtheyβre confident enough to not need a guideβ are common tropes, and Iβm tired.
Are people scared that using a white cane will make their blind character seem weak? They canβt use a cane because theyβre so special that they already know whatβs around them, and other blind people who use guides are inferior because theyβre not special?
Iβm tired. Give your blind characters white canes and other guides. Let them hold onto their friends, let them have guide dogs. Donβt make white cane users feel ostracized for not being βstrong enoughβ to go without.
Another thing that pisses me off is when a sighted character comes up with the fantasy equivalent of braille and teaches it to the blind character. Braille was invented by Louis Braille, a blind man, in 1824. The blind character should be the one coming up with it.
Tldr Iβm blind and tired of sighted people lol
Update on my friend Amani from Gaza! Things are getting very dire and she has asked me once again to relay her story to you in the hopes that you will be able to help her and her family.
Amani is a 32 year old mother of 3 boys. Originally from the north of Gaza, their home was completely taken away from them by Israeli bombardment and they were forced to evacuate to the south.
Currently, Amani's family has had to evacuate 5 times and is forced to live in a tent with even the barest necessities unavailable to them. Her children are deprived of nutritious food and clean water as well as medicine and healthcare. And everyday they are at risk of losing their lives whether it is to illness or to the Israeli heavy artillery.
(ID in Alt)
Amani needs to evacuate herself and her children across the Rafah border. She is asking for $17,732 and has gotten very few donations so far!
Please help Amani get her boys to safety and out of harm's way! Every moment they spend in Gaza their life is at risk and the trauma they gain is lifelong. Donate what you can and please make sure you share!
A little lost piece from trans history: a 22-year-old trans woman won a 1967 Wyoming beauty contest. She entered the pageant just a year after she transitioned. Unfortunately, the judges disqualified her after she informed a competitor that she was trans.
(Found this in the depths of the Kinsey Institute archives)
happy pride to everyone who can't come out or be out this pride. happy pride to you if you are gay, lesbian, bisexual, pansexual or experience other types of queer attraction and cannot date, marry, live with, or sleep with the gender/s you are truly attracted to. happy pride to you if you can't tell anyone around you that you're trans. happy pride to you if you can't transition due to health, safety, familial or personal reasons. happy pride to you if you've tried to come out in the past but have been harassed out of identifying as queer. happy pride to you if you've been talked into detransitioning when you didn't want to. happy pride to you if you are aromantic or asexual and don't want to partner but are expected to or even forced to by your family. happy pride to you if you are a lesbian but feel estranged from the community because you are masculine. happy pride to you if you're gay and have to keep it a secret. happy pride to you if you are intersex but cannot be open about it. happy pride to you if you are genderqueer and/or genderfluid and cannot express the entirety of your gender/s. happy pride to you if it is illegal or otherwise impossible for you to transition.
happy pride to every queer person who is struggling to be out and loud about who they are right now. not everyone has the privilege to speak freely during pride month and as such, we must do the best that we can to make sure that these folks feel included, seen, heard, and represented. no matter who you are, transfem, transmasc, transneutral, non binary, gay, lesbian, bisexual, multispectrum, genderqueer, gnc, sapphic, achillean, aromantic, asexual, intersex, or whatever other queer identities you have, you are still a valued part of our community, and we are here for you when the rest of society can't be. you deserve to celebrate yourself too. you are just as important as queer people who have the relative freedom to express their queerness. take care of yourselves this pride month, you are loved and valued
A small donation can make a big difference π
I am Karam from Gaza, I am 20 years old. I am standing before you, I need your help to save the lives of me and my family from the war of genocideβΌοΈ
We are a family of five people. Our house was destroyed and I am homeless, and now we need your help to reach our goal as quickly as possible.
We have been displaced several times due to the destruction of our house, and now I live in a very small tent that is not suitable for living in due to the extreme heat and the spread of insects and diseases π
It is difficult for me to find words to describe what we face every day in Gaza: no food, no medicine, no clean drinking water, oppression, helplessness and psychological pressure.
Donate and share, $1 makes the difference in saving the life of me and my family ππ

tumblr just deleted a huge swathe of palestinians who were on here trying to fundraise. if you've been helping any of these fundraisers please take this time to 1) check in with palestinians you're in contact with 2) help them submit support requests if needed 3) keep these campaigns circulating while the beneficiaries are being silenced. these campaigns are life or death, this isn't just social networking. do not let these fundraisers languish.
