They could never make me hate you, complex female character whose reaction to trauma was not pretty and digestible like how people think it should be.

[ID: a screenshot of a comic speech bubble. The black text in it reads "No matter how open-minded, socially conscious, anti-racist I think I am, I still have old learned hidden biases that I need to examine. It is my responsibility to check myself daily for my stereotypes, prejudices and, ultimately, discrimination." /ID end]

antiracism is a constant process. i was raised in a racist village and it's not easy to get rid of it. i moved away over 10 years ago but those ideas are still haunting me.

Conservative beauty standards are back with a vengeance which means it's especially important to go out this summer with bellies out and bodies unshaved. Also be unapologetically disabled with mobility aids and wearable medical devices and stim toys and ear defenders and all that stuff. You need it. People need to see it. Everyone needs to be reminded that life is unquestioningly more enjoyable when you're not living inside an arbitrary set of rules created by people who are offended by all the wrong things.

grrrr graaaah nasa made photos of the moon that they colorized for scientific reasons and now a bunch of idiots on the internet that are gonna be all "the moon has rainbows on it" for the rest of time

On the one hand, this year’s April Fools gag just being a game of centipede is kind of lazy, but on the other hand, I am sincerely relieved whenever this website shows any signs of life at all. I am glad they had the budget to do something for April Fools.

Being on Tumblr in 2026 is a lot like owning an extremely elderly cat and April Fools is like watching your geriatric pet get the zoomies. She’s still got it! She’ll live forever.

fun fact: you don't need to be dead to haunt someone. you can literally go round to their house and do all the stuff a ghost would do right now

on my way to explode the journal factory to keep tumblr blogs in business

I'm queuing this, hopefully by the time it posts it's happened.
