I don’t know… because it’s been used to justify taking people like me, and taking away our rights and liberties and making us wards of the state. Because it’s been used to fuel a culture of violence and fear- used to promote our extermination- to normalize physical and sexual violence against us. Because it’s used to, without our consent, consign us to corrupt psychiatric institutions where we have a long history of being abused. Because we have been the objects of unethical experimentation and torture for a century or more, none of which raises an eyebrow.

Because police have literally executed us without cause. Because our only representation is misrepresented as a socially acceptable target; our only source of pride and community is the killer of the week on a crime show, who at best garners the condescending pity of the audience, who still all agree that we are subhuman abominations who need to be kept away from ~respectable citizens~ Because we aren’t allowed to have souls.

Because we have been suffering and dying for centuries and it is all seen as a necessary if not slightly unfortunate circumstance. We should be grateful we’re not rounded up and slaughtered for the public good. Oh but of course we don’t have the mental faculties to recognize this. 

It’s funny when they’re all like “I hurt you, I’m trash, I hate that I hurt you, it hurts me SO MUCH that YOU get hurt cause of me, so I’m just gonna keep on hurting you. I’m trash.” & they’re so self depreciating that you end up being the one really apologizing and feeling bad that you had to gall to say when they did shitty things that chip away at your self esteem.

i’ve talked about them many times before, but i’m finally writing this because people need to know, and deserve to know they’re dangerous, and because i deserve to have closure. this is the last time i’ll talk about them.

i don’t want anyone else to go through the same things i did.

warnings for abuse, manipulation, and stalking.

you know what needs to stop happening

you all need to stop using the upside down triangle for your logo symbol bullshit

aka this

let me tell you why

you’re basing it off the pink triangle that’s used as an lgbt symbol correct? 

do you know where that symbol comes from?

yeah. 

the pink triangle isnt yours to use because it isnt yours to reclaim. allies and asexuals weren’t forced to brand themselves with these triangles so everyone would know they were less than human

as someone who’s jewish and gay seeing this pisses me off more than you imagine and i’m putting an end to it.

~Operation: UN-FUCK ELLEN’S WALLET!~

Hello!

My name is Jane! I’m posting on behalf of my partner Ellen! 

Ellen (cyberpill) has run into a bit of trouble, due to a recent series of fuckings by several institutions out of her control she is short $500 on her rent payment. We are currently accepting any and all donations to help unfuck this situation with the aim of buying enough time to secure alternate housing, which may be taken care of already.

So right now we are in time buying mode which means we need this $500 ASAP.

We would really appreciate anything you could spare to help prevent eviction! Just a little bit to skate by for another month and we’ll be able to move her somewhere better (and cheaper) so thank you in advance for anything you donate!

I’m handling the money side and you can find the donation area: here!

Thank you for reading,

PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE READ THIS

my friend rosa is being kicked out of her home this coming sunday.

her current roommates will not give her an extension, and have told her that on sunday they will take her to a homeless shelter if she cannot find a place to stay. she is a trans woman of color and a shelter will be a very dangerous place for her.

if you can let her stay with you for any period of time at all, PLEASE email her at [email protected] .she is willing to pay rent/bills/groceries and will start looking for a job immediately when she gets there.

please help her out she is one of my best friends in the world, please please please do what you can to help her. email her at [email protected]

you are not mentally disabled; you do not get to use that word.

there are other HK lines you can have as your title that aren't oppressive or problematic and are actually funny

SOURCE your shamelessly STOLEN and REPOSTED fanart you INCONSIDERATE children.

And on that note, please stop reposting heinicke’s work, as they have explicitly stated in the past that they do not want their fanart reposted at all. Anywhere. ESPECIALLY NOT HERE. (It’s even in ENGLISH on their site.) There has been a huge increase in the amount of their freaking art on my freaking dash. Please delete their work from your blog; it is incredibly disrespectful.

This has been a PSA. Stop doing this. I haven’t used my image source extension this much since the collective ygo fandom starting seeing the act of sourcing your stolen and reposted fanart a “cool thing to do”.
