Image Description: A repost of an instagram post from @/teawithqj, with picture of Imani Barbarin, a Black disability blogger and actor, seated on a bench outside, grinning, with her name printed in pink beside her, with a quote reading:
“I’ve never once overcome my disability, but I have overcome the desire to slap someone every day of my life.
And that’s what should be celebrated.”

friendly reminder since we’re less than a month from release that if I see anyone posting about the Hogwarts Blood Libel video game I’m blocking you on sight
attempt at an reblog game that I think would be fun: tell me where you are from in the tags but only by how your place is displayed in hollywood movies
Today, May 15th 2022, is the 74th Nakba Day. It is a day for rememberance, mourning, and resistance for Palestinians
Non Palestinians, please use this day to be loud about your solidarity with us. Today more than other days please use your platforms and your voices to amplify the voices of Palestinians and condemn Israel on every platform you can... Tumblr, Facebook, Instagram, Twitter.
Seek out Palestinian journalists and activists who are talking about Israel's crimes. People like Mohammed El Kurd and Muna El Kurd, Eye On Palestine, Abier Khatib, Mariam Barghouti...
Supporting Palestinian journalists and activists is especially vital in the wake of Shireen Abu Akleh's assassination at the hands of the occupation forces just days earlier.
Please check out the BDS website for resources. There are webinars and online rallies and ways you can protest online from your own home. And try to learn more about the different kinds and of boycotts you can take part in, as well as how and why these boycotts are important. The site also has lists of things you can easily boycott including action plans.
(via the BDS website)
DecolonizePalestine is another amazing resource. If you don't know much about the crisis in Palestine, please educate yourself so you can educate others.
If you're able to protest in person, this post wonderfully put together by @soullsword also has information on Nakba Day protests all around the world.
And donate if you can! To organisations like:
Palestine Children's Relief Fund (PCRF), which provides emergency medical services for Palestinian children.
United Palestine Appeal (UPA) - an organization supporting Palestinian socio-economic development
If any Palestinians have anything to add, please feel free 💖🇵🇸
soooo fox news are trying to create what’s essentially a hotline for parents to out lgbt educators and lgbt kids in school situations and im not saying that you should flood it with as much cursed images and gay shit as possible to make it impossible for them to receive any actual messages that may threaten peoples livelihoods….but also the email for it is in the linked tweet…. soooooo…. 😚✌️
I keep seeing panphobic shit and I'm sad and I need to prove a point to myself

Just a reminder my blog is trans inclusive. It’s bi inclusive. It is pan inclusive. It is intersex inclusive. It is ace/asexual inclusive. It is aro/aromantic inclusive. It is queer inclusive.
I don’t support terfs or exclusionists.
If you came here looking for an ally in your bigotry you came to the wrong blog. Go away. You are not welcome here.
just some reminders for people who are writing IDs:
do not put judgements in your ids. do not say "it needs to be noted the character looks extra adorable here" do not say "an ugly person" or "a hilarious meme" or anything like that. we don't need you to tell us how to feel about something.
do put descriptive words and adjectives. "a crudely drawn image" or "a painting of a scarlet colored apple" or "a person with large hands". we do need you to tell us descriptors so we have context.
do not type words incorrectly. do write words exactly as they appear in the image.
let me say that again: EXACTLY as they appear. is the word capitalized? capitalize it. is the word "yes" written with 3 s's? write it in the description as "yesss" not as "yesssss" or "yes". are the words in all caps? write them in all caps, or write "text in all caps says" and then include a lowercase version. is a word misspelled? spell it exactly the same way. if the image says "washning mashing" it should not be written as "washing machine"*
*you can definitely say "the words 'washing machine' are misspelled as 'washning mashing'," just make sure that you do include the exact transcription in your description
disabled people, people with screen readers, and ANYONE else who uses IDs to interpret images deserves to interpret the image as accurately as possible, and its important to transcribe and describe things properly and without judgements added.
Pip, they/them, nonbinary, panromantic, greysexual. This is sort of a junk blog, but its also my main one. I really use @woodwind-goddess so you should head over there
