This act will harm content creators that are POC or LGBTQIA+!! If you care about apps and platforms where your favorite fandoms are or your favorite content creators are ESPECIALLY if they are apart of the LGBTQ community or a POC person!! This act will wipe most sites/creators that are deemed as a “hazard” to kids and their mental health.
It has even passed on to the House of Representatives now! While it is a long way from being past, it is still a very urgent issue that must be addressed. Two (forgive me if I make a mistake here) senators from different states raised concerns when debating the bill the other day, our voices do have a difference!! Email and call your senators and sign as many petitions as possible!!
Another thing, the language used in the bill has been changed, they have updated the guidelines and it’s even worse than we thought as it’s even more clear they are going to try and silence LGBTQIA+ creators!!
The KOSA act is affecting people by taking away privacy first of all and wont be able to use social media and minors will have restrictions.
If this bill gets passed first of all it will be against the first and fourth amendment second of all we won’t be able to use social media anymore and we will always be monitored forever!

As someone who grapples with suicidal ideation on the daily:
DO NOT UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES KILL/HARM YOURSELF. THERE IS SO MUCH MORE LEFT IN THIS WORLD THAT IS WORTH LIVING FOR. A DARK TIME DOES NOT MEAN A DARK TIME FOREVER. WE CAN BE DISTRESSED AT WHAT MAYBE LOST - BUT HOLD ON AND GROUND YOURSELF.
YOU DO NOT DESERVE TO GO OUT THIS WAY, LIVE DESPITE THIS RESULT. LIVE IN SPITE OF HIM. WHATEVER EMPOWERS YOU MORE.
Bruise "popstar x ex-bestfriend" au </3
Some information about the au:
About halfway through their freshman year of highschool Jay gets recruited, picked up, by people interested in him because of his birth parents. He ends up working with them and becoming a musician. Over the course of the year he slowly cut contact with Cole, and everyone else (other than Ed and Edna, though he's distant) before they stop talking all together. Three years later, at a show people come for Jay's head. Cole, there because of some mixture of bitterness and longning is there and helps him escape. Theyre on the run from there.
Is there something you planned to do before you got trapped in the endless tumblr scroll?
Are you yelling at yourself to get up and do the thing, but you can’t, because you’re trapped in the endless tumblr scroll?
Consider this your save point.
Put tumblr down, stand up, stretch, and go do the thing you planned to do. Future you will be incredibly grateful.
not to Discourse but I’m a cis man and my partner is an afab enby and if you call us a “straight couple” I will personally come to your house tie you to a chair and make you listen to a podcast about gender identity on endless repeat
Here's the Valentine's Doodles! I know Valentine's Day isn't until Wednesday, but it's close enough. But yeah, Bruise and Lost got the the most votes in the poll that I did, so I drew them! I was honestly a little surprised to see Bruiseshipping getting so many votes, but idk maybe it's because people know I draw a lot of bruise? Idk. Maybe people just wanna see Cole ships because Lostshipping also got a lot of votes.
Also as a bonus since Cole has two hands:
