“i’m gay”

dan. i know coming out is weird and difficult and awkward and happy and sad. but thank you. thank you for making me feel accepted even when you weren’t out. thank you for preaching acceptance and love for the past few years. thank you for stamping yourself into our hearts and showing us it’s okay to be who we are regardless of sexuality. thank you for opening your mind and soul to us. thank you for sharing even more of yourself. you didn’t have to but you did and have made thousands of people feel even more loved and accepted. i know it may have been extremely difficult but you have made such a big difference in my life. we wouldn’t be the same without you. thank you thank you thank you.

Inactive Twitter accounts will be deleted

So like I understand the need to free up usernames that were taken and then never used again, but what about accounts of people who died ?

Its unclear if the criteria for an inactive account’s deletion is both “No log in for years AND zero tweets made by the account as a whole,aka empty accounts”

It could very well be “No login for years and zero tweets made during this inactivity”

Which would sucks cuz theres a lot of cool stuff made from accounts who are inactive, and again, all that some families have left from their deceased loved ones is an inactive twitter account.

Back in 2019,this concern was brought up, and Twitter said they wouldnt delete accounts to free up names without making it possible to memorialize accounts of a deceased person first.

Now, Under Elon, i dont know if it will be made.

So if you know an inactive account you really loved.. make sure to save its tweets into the wayback machine, take screenshots, etc.

Just in case.

Also they dont even specify how many years. We’re left in total darkness regarding questions we have.

Also im encouraging you to please REBLOG as to further warn people.

Also hey maybe if enough people Ask Elon about not deleting inactive accounts who do have content in them maybe hell only delete accounts who are empty ??

I’ve always wanted to be a teacher. Sometimes I would imagine myself in other roles, but I would always go back to teacher.

Today, for 17 minutes, a small group of people gathered on my college campus in solidarity with the school walkouts occurring across the country. It was a simple affair – one girl said a few words, a priest said a prayer, and then we stood in silence for the remaining 4 minutes.

Those 17 minutes, they’ve hit me hard. I’ve never experienced gun violence, never known anyone involved in a school shooting. But one thought kept turning around in my head: I don’t want this responsibility. I don’t want “willingness to stand between a student and a gun” written in my job description. It shouldn’t have to be. I want to be a teacher because I want to see students’ eyes light up, NOT the other way around. Is that so much to ask?

I still want to teach. Nothing will change that. I know that school shootings don’t happen every day, that I will likely never have to witness one. I walked into a public school every day for 13 years and never felt unsafe. But, frankly, so did the kids at Parkland. At Sandy Hook. Every one of those schools.

I was lucky. I still am lucky. But it never should have been about luck. School safety should be a given.

Today, think about the students. But also think about the teachers. The administrators. The nurse. The janitor. The cafeteria workers. The librarian. Think about the adults in the building. Think about every person in your school that you took for granted. Do you want “willingness to stand between a student and a gun” written in their job description? Because that’s what it’s come down to.

Something needs to change.

I came out to my mum and she didn’t really accept me fully as ftm trans. Please reblog this so I can see who actually accepts me and that I’m accepted and not alone.

They are just denying the truth

are gender nonconforming cishet girls actually mirroring lesbian experiences, behaviours, and fashion or are they just claiming surface level commonalities as their entire identity just so they can say absurd, borderline homophobic shit to lesbians like "i too have short hair and own a flannel, and I'm not a lesbian" "having a pet cat doesn't make you gay, i have a cat" "i'm that close with my best friend too and we're not in love with eachother" "i've never been boy crazy either" "it's called being a tomboy" "just cause she has a masculine job doesn't make her butch, I work with a lot of guys as well" "captain marvel is straight because she's basically me" "hashtag no makeup no skirts" "not a dyke"

I went through depression, and i am not suicidal anymore and i am not depressed anymore

But i still have depression, it wokt ever go away, it didnt even after all these years. There is still this little thought back in my mind where i hate me and everything and judt dont want to live.

Its sealed and hidden, but it exists and it wont go away. And it can come back.

Depression is sometimes everywhere obvious

Or in the back of someones mind, coming back at moments of happiness

Everyones journey is different. Do not judge just because you do not see, do not hear and are not ask.

You say all the suicidal people are just in the phase,

No one of them is depressed or going through a stress.

And I don’t know when you would ever understand

That you’re just ignorant and don’t want to comprehend.

If i said I am one of them would you even care

Or would you repeat all the words from above there?

If i said I’m suicidal would you say im in denial

And my sad mood can’t be serious because you don’t see this?

I really want to change your mind and open up your ears

But even if i do so would it change a thing? Because i feel like it won’t.

Though i know you love me but can you say it once at least

Or is this issue that I, too, will be dealing with?
