That is super fantastic, wonderful and dandy.
Really it is but that’s all you get. You know why?
No one should get rewarded for simply doing what is right.
I don’t like you more because I know you are one of the good ones. I expect you to be one of...

“The distinction between sexual and asexual people is that, if asexuals think...”
– AVEN {the Asexual Visibility and Education Network} (via wardolope)
This strikes me as a bit of a false dichotomy, since the same is true of a lot of non-asexual people’s fantasies?

I think it’s the ‘all squares are rectangles but not all rectangles are squares’ argument....

Free T for USA trans guys
fuckyeahftms:
If you are an American trans guy who can’t get T because of lack money or your insurance doesn’t cover it, you may be able to get it for free directly from the pharmaceutical company that makes it.
One example is ‘Abbot’ who produce Androgel. They have a website (linked below) that is specifically for people who can’t afford their prescriptions. Their requirements for getting free...

“One US study found that over a quarter of therapists seen by bisexual clients...”
– The Bisexuality Report: Bisexual inclusion in LGBT equality and diversity ~BiUK et. al. 2012 (via bisexual-community)
When I was in therapy and I mentioned being bullied for being bi, one of my doctors asked if I had dated men and women, how I could be sure, blah, blah, blah. When I told her I just...

Prison labour, and why making money from...
harleyboop:
The problem with prison labour begins at the point where it becomes more profitable to keep someone in prison than to have them out of prison. At that point where there is financial incentive for the state to imprison people then there becomes a massive conflict of interest, and custodial sentences start becoming a first point of call...

Theoden King and other tautologies
Kassie: I was amused to find the exact phrase "the lord of the rings" in Beowulf the other day
Kassie: I mean, it is specifically talking about rings of chainmail but the words are right there
Kassie: "hringa thengel"! It is in the bit I quoted on tumblr the other day actually
Kassie: I knew "Theoden" meant "lord"
Kassie: but also
Kassie: "Edoras" means "buildings"
Kassie: "Mearas" means "horses"
Em: lololol
Kassie: "Ent" means "giant/barbarian (?)"
Kassie: etc
Em: you do find yourself wondering how the Rohirrim name things
Em: 'This is our capital! We call it... Buildings.'
Kassie: hsdgfg yes
Em: 'And these are our magic horses! We call them Horses.'
Kassie: "Here is our king, his name is King."
All I Have to Say About Jenny Hyun
tithenai:
This woman published a sequence of tweets calling for the genocide of black people.
In Canada, advocating genocide is considered hate speech, which is indictable under our criminal code, and invites prison terms of two to fourteen years.
So far as I’m concerned Jenny Hyun is a criminal.
If you don’t think advocating genocide is a criminal act, the word “monster” is too good for...

How to be a pervert without being an asshat #27
harleyboop:
Trigger warning: talks about fetishisation of many different types of violence, including the sort which many people might find upsetting, and how to dfo so safely and consensually. There’s even some pictures to reward people for completing the lesson.

Depressed but not surprised. The same trans-misogynistic garbage is happening at PantheaCon again. Z and the Amazon Priestess Tribe both crapping on trans women. We will not be hurt as much by the hate of our enemies as the silence of our friends.
Oh…
In the con program the Amazon Priestess Tribe has a ritual for “Skyclad Women Only” (read:...

Trans Sexuality - A Safe Sex Zine
Safe sex information is almost universally designed for non-trans (and straight) folks, and then that information is given to us when and where it applies. However, there is a lot of information that is unique to trans people and trans…
I really like the fact that they don’t apply cis terminology to trans genitals.

I used to wonder why we don’t have any queer cousins or aunts/uncles or well any other sort of relation.
But my brother and sister are both bi and I’m the queerest queer I know (in real life).
So I guess we took all the queerness up, so there was none left for the rest of the family.

wow everyone in your story just happens to be a homosexual well that’s very convenient
Sometimes I read that kind of fic and I think this and then I go “wow everyone in basically every film, TV show and book is straight well that’s very convenient” and I don’t care so much.
