yk guys I think a lot of ppl when arguing against the death penalty go for a like "people don't deserve death, etc" view and I get why ppl argue for that I rly do! but it doesn't matter. I don't trust the government to do it, I don't trust them to decide who should die, I don't trust them to determine who is mentally competent, I don't trust them to not be bigoted and discriminatory in their practices, I don't trust them to have the right people, I don't trust them to execute it in a humanitarian way. and I've had discussions with ppl who otherwise have similar viewpoints to me in many ways but can think of people they think deserve to die, and I think if abolishing the death penalty is like, a super important cause to u the same way it is to me, the argument u use shouldn't be "well these people deserve to live" (although in some cases I think yeah the death penalty is done to people who totally don't "deserve it") because that's so subjective, it should be "do you trust the government to do it?" like, do you trust the people who cant even fill potholes on your road to determine who should and should not live
I'm someone who agrees that the government cannot be trusted to do this, so it shouldn't be supported.
In a better world, I would support the death penalty for rape and torture. Other crimes can be explained- I stole because I was hungry, I killed in self defense, etc- but not rape or torture. They require you to harm someone for zero benefit. I think anyone who does either should be removed from this world.
I don't think a torturer or a rapist can be redeemed. I also think it's cruel to permanently jail people.
This is probably my least popular opinion, but I don't think of death as a punishment. I think of it as an end. An end to your ability to cause suffering, and an end to your own suffering. Still, I would give them a choice. Permanent imprisonment with no chance of getting out, but an ethical and well appointed jail, or death by a bullet to the head. Instant, and with as little suffering as possible.
The reason why so many of y'all's feminism sucks is because you still believe deep down in your hearts that there are only two kinds of people in the world: precious, ethereal, fragile dollthings called "women", and violent, lustful, rage-fueled apes called "men". Until you throw that idea away, 3rd-grade-tier "girls rule boys drool, girls are princesses and boys are stinky :(" is as feminist as we'll ever get-- and I hope it's obvious that that's lightyears away from the bare minimum of where we need to be.
It's always "stop harming yourself or we'll have to lock you up!!!" and never "what do you need to change to want to harm yourself less and how can we help you make some of these changes?" and that's why we're not getting anywhere
i know folks are gonna call me a pedo for this one, but i grew up seeing my mom and grandma naked. they had health issues and at times needed care and help showering. and i truly think more kids need to be shown the nonsexual reality of naked women at a young age. there is nothing sexual about my grandmothers breasts, they were simply body parts. more women die of heart attacks because people are too afraid of breasts to do real chest compressions, because they are scared to touch their breasts. the sexualization of our bodies literally kills us. i need people to be more normal about naked bodies and i'm 100% serious.
I live in Germany and itâs very normal here to have areas (especially at the Baltic Sea) that are labeled âfkkâ (Frei-KĂśrper-Kultur = free-body-culture) where most people are naked. So growing up it was quite normal for me to see people with all kinds of bodies at various ages be naked at the beach. There is nothing inherently sexual about nudity. I actually know someone who enjoys going to those areas because seeing how different bodies can be without clothes covering it up helps them a lot with their body image issues.
Also: I have recently in a video seen a mannequin with breasts for chest compression training. I think those should be standard and used alongside a flat chested mannequin in every first aid training. I didnât know that you potentially would be basically grabbing one of the breast during chest compressions before the video, I honestly never even really thought about the positioning of my hands if I had to potentially perform chest compression on someone with breasts.

people hate it when i say "black people getting cancer is racist" but im literally fucking right because systemic racism has led to chemical dumping being acceptable in black/brown neighborhoods and black people have higher rates of cancer as a result
Also all the education is based on white people. Skin signs especially, (rashes can look completely different depending on your skin color), but also medications. Not to mention medical racism.
Also POC in the USA have less access to healthcare, because some live on the reservation, some have higher rates of poverty/unemployment, their area has less facilities and trained personnel, etc.
ALL. OF. THIS.
I like this energy but letâs name whatâs actually going on today:
-disproportionate queer homelessness is still a HUGE issue
-disproportionate mental illness is still a HUGE issue
-afaik you canât be jailed for being gay, at least in most developed countries. America unfortunately is headed that way for trans people, though.
-LGBTQ is currently a protected class for firing, isnât it? So that oneâs a dud.
-disowned is not something we can organize a movement around (you canât legally force someone to financially support someone else) so while I see why itâs included, if that were the only thing remaining, there wouldnât be anything we could do about it. So itâs less impactful. Like yes I suppose Pride should persist in such a hypothetical future, to continue normalization, but itâs still not as strong a point.
-they are trying to come after marriage, I think, but I donât know the details
-denied healthcare is true for trans people, but no longer for gays or bi, right?
(also healthcare is not exactly a ârightâ, I donât think? Thank capitalism for that)
When someone asks âwhat rights are you missing, whatâs not equal, why are you guys still being so loudâ you need to be able to ANSWER this question. Specifically.
This Tweet does not do that.
It couldâve mentioned still-existent hate crimes, thatâs pretty important!
And, afaik, some states still have the âmurder is ok if the person youâre dating is trans and you got worked up about that factâ ie âtrans panic defense.â
THAT one should be in here, as âthe right not to be murderedâ not applying to trans people in certain scenarios should be like. The TOP of the list.
You can actually force parents to pay for their child up to age 18. It's illegal to abandon a child. It's just really hard for homeless kids, without resources, to pursue this. They also don't have great experiences at shelters or in foster care, both because those places aren't regulated well, and because a lot of them are queermisic.
I know healthcare is denied to trans and gnc people and people perceived as women, especially obgyn care. Some Women's Clinics will kick out people they perceive as men or even too masculine. People perceived as women are regularly dismissed, sometimes to the point where they die from medical neglect.
Trans panic and gay panic are still defenses that get used, unfortunately.
"wholesome" and "pure" are not antonyms of "sexual" btw
Gotta catch em all
No fair! I only get the rainbow that transitions into the trans flag.
Whatever the fuck this post is that just came into my âfor youâ
this is exorsexism
The post is from 2021, so I wanted to find out if this person got better. They did not. In fact, this is worse.

"Queer is a slur."

Guess it was bound to happen eventually
I was previously the blog owner of @/ari-chronism, @/comprehensive-sex-ed, and @/thisisantisemitism.
I'd noticed the other day that every time I tried to log in, it would reroute back to the main screen and not actually sign me into my account. I assumed Tumblr was glitching and so didn't bother doing anything about it, especially given I hadn't been notified of any sort of ban.
Then I got the idea to use my alternate account to check and see if my blogs were still there. Lo and behold, they were all gone.
I'm pretty sure I had been on the staff's radar for a while, and I don't know what the final push was to ban me. I don't know if I'm going to try and rebuild my accounts - I was stupid enough to not back up any of my content, so I'd have to do a good bit of digging to try and find my posts again and I'm not sure I have the bandwidth for that. If I don't, I might still remake my accounts and try continuing where I left off, but we'll see.
If you knew me on any of those accounts - hi. I'm alright. Sorry if my vanishing scared you.
I'll probably try and reconnect with my mutuals, if nothing else, so if anyone wants to circulate this post, feel free. I don't remember usernames well enough to search for them, but feel free to send an ask or message me and I'll probably recognize your profile if you're someone I knew.
hey tumblr staff fuck you. The blogs that Ari owned were really educational and i found them informative.

At the risk of sounding anti-intellectual, I think that college should be free and also not a requirement for employment outside of highly specialized career fields
At the risk of sounding like an effete intellectual, I do actually think you should be allowed to just take college courses indefinitely
technically you can, if you don't care about degrees.
Free Harvard courses. Free Courses from Stanford. Free Courses from MIT. Free courses from Yale. Free courses from Princeton.
Free courses on Coursera.
Free Courses on EDx Free Courses on Alison
For paid, there's The Great Courses+/Wonderium. 20$ a month for unlimited courses.
When searching, the phrases you're looking for are Massive Open Online Courses (MOOCs), or you can do a general search of say, "free online college courses." Oh, and so you don't get surprised like I did, have an avoid: Hillsdale College is a conservative Christian site and not a valid MOOC place. Sign up with them and you will get things like THIS IS WHY THE LEFT IS TURNING YOUR KIDS TRANS AND GAY in your inbox.
@yourunderwaterskies I wanted to say thank you so much for adding these links, seriously, they've been life-changingly helpful to me-
And I also wanted to mention that humanitarian organisations have free courses too, like the Red Cross on international humanitarian law.

"In recent years, there has been a rush on the internet to supply image descriptions and to call out those who donât. This may be an example of community accountability at work, but itâs striking to observe that those doing the most fierce calling out or correcting are sighted people. Such efforts are largely self-defeating. I cannot count the times Iâve stopped reading a video transcript because it started with a dense word picture. Even if a description is short and well done, I often wish there were no description at all. Get to the point, already! How ironic that striving after access can actually create a barrier. When I pointed this out during one of my seminars, a participant made us all laugh by doing a parody: âMary is wearing a green, blue, and red striped shirt; every fourth stripe also has a purple dot the size of a pea in it, and there are forty-seven stripesââ
âYouâre killing me,â I said. âI canât take any more of that!â
Now serious, she said it was clear to her that none of that stuff about Maryâs clothes mattered, at least if her clothes werenât the point. What mattered most about the image was that Mary was holding her diploma and smiling. âBut,â she wondered, âdo I say, Mary has a huge smile on her face as she shows her diploma or Mary has an exuberant smile or showing her teeth in a smile and her eyes are crinkled at the edges?â
Itâs simple. Mary has a huge smile on her face is the best one. Itâs the donât-second-guess-yourself option."

âFandom, after all, is born of a balance between fascination and frustration: if media content didnât fascinate us, there would be no desire to engage with it; but if it didnât frustrate us on some level, there would be no drive to rewrite or remake itâ
â Henry Jenkins (via jbaillier)
Once my friend Henry was accused of wearing wireless headphones by a substitute so she said for him to hand them over so he took them off and handed them to her. Then later on she asked him a question and he didnât respond so she said it louder and he still didnât respond. She asked why he was not responding and he said âI canât understand you ma'am, you took my hearing aids.â
HOLY SHIT
one time we had a sub that was handing back papers and called my name. I asked if someone could grab it for me and she started mocking me for not even standing up. taunting me asking why I was not walking up to the front to get the paper myself.
my classmates went dead silent and after the subâs laughter ended someone informed her that the wheelchair parked nearby belonged to me
I had a sub in English once, on presentation day. And everyone goes up and does their thing, and then its my turn. The whole time im stuttering and mixing up my words, having to stop and re-say my sentences. The rest of the class is used to this and claps. However, by the time its over, the teacher is 100% done.
Starts saying horrible thing about how im going to have to get over my âfear of public speakingâ and how sheâs heard 8 year olds give better presentations (plus worse things but I donât really member them). By then im in tears and on the brink of a panic attack, and then she starts telling me off for crying The rest of the class is horrified. Then this boy stands up. He never been my friend and we never really got along, but heâd never bullied me. He told her in a pissed off, cold voice that in freshmen year I got a concussion and that I never really recovered from it, so all that was medical related and I couldnât help it. Then he starts telling her off and the rest of the class joins him.  The teacher is mortified and tries to cover her ass, but the whole class walked out and that boy took me by the shoulders and we all walked to the principles office and told him what had happened. Lets just say she isnât teaching anymore. Also, turns out that boy had a sister like me, who couldnât really speak. Weâve been best friends for 8 years and iâll be his best woman at his wedding next year. The moral is that Teachers, even subs, and adults shouldnât scold kids before knowing the whole story, because shit like that can fuck up kids self-esteem for the rest of their life.Â
When I was thirteen, I had to have spinal surgery. When my doctor said I was allowed to attend school again, he said I had to use a wheelchair when on school grounds. My first day back at school, my special-ed teacher had put up a banner in her classroom that read, âThere is no elevator to success. You must take the stairs.â I asked what that meant regarding my wheelchair, and she gave me detention for âdisrespecting her authorityâ. The next week she gave us a homework assignment to design a poster that could potentially be used as a Public Service Advertisement. On the due-date, I handed this in.
My special-ed teacher was fucking OUTRAGED. She wanted me expelled for ridiculing her authority in front of the other students. The principal proclaimed my work to be âa masterpiece of satirical geniusâ and vetoed the special-ed teacherâs attempt to expel me.
Reblogging this post yet again, this time for the masterpiece of satirical genius. Hope the teacher got in trouble.
