âbodily autonomy for some marginalized groups but not allâ will literally never, ever work. the right to abortion and the right to medical transition and the right to engage in gay sex and the right to take birth control are inextricably linked by the core right of bodily autonomy. shooting one kills them all. support othersâ bodily autonomy or yours will be taken too
hey psa to my fellow fat ppl: a few tips + tutorials for upsizing clothing thatâs too small, that way if youâve grown out of certain stuff and canât afford new things, you can make it fit youâ this has helped me a lot in the pastÂ
my tips:
cutting off just the neckline of a shirt/dress can help SO much
cutting slits on the sides of tight shirts helps relieve tightness + you can add an accent fabric, lace, or fishnet material under there for an extra design element (or safety pin it back together for a really cool punk look!)
you can do that same thing with sleeves but i recommend doing it underneath (either on the seem if it has one or to the seem that connects it to the shirt)Â
adding false pleats to skirts/dresses by cutting them up the sides and in the front and adding an accent fabric works really well with tightness around the legs
 you can do a lot of these side-cut things to pants but if you do, itâs a good idea to add elastic to the waist band!Â
tutorials:
4 ways to upsize shirts
how to refit/re-elastic a waistband for a better fit
more upsizing shirts!
making a lace insert dress (could be substituted for other things like mesh/fishnet)
increasing the waist band on jeans
how to enlargen shorts
expanding a dress (from the bottom)
expanding a dress (from the bust)
your weekly "capitalism enables abusive relationships" post here to point out that a huge reason people stay in abusive relationships is lack of money and resources to safely leave. my abusive dad literally kicked me and my mom out and we had to return home the next day because there's nowhere else to live. anyone who supports capitalism supports abuse and I truly hope you suffer if you oppose things like free housing and anti-homeless policies.
also, for anyone who doesn't know, there's an entire form of abuse revolved around finance. it's a common factor in cases of domestic violence and elder abuse.
NEVER forget the role of capitalism when discussing abuse, especially regarding abusers with enough wealth and power to get away with it *cough cough epstein*

âLacking the ability to self-regulate, overwhelmed by apparently dangerous emotions and sensations, the childâs felt sense is, âI canât survive these feelingsâif I canât make them stop, I will explode into a million piecesâI will die.â The result: both ordinary and autonomically exacerbated emotional reactions come to feel unbearable, intolerable, and life-threateningâŚ.Dying is not what the client fears. The client fears his or her own feelings. What feels dangerous is the implicit memory: âI canât tolerate these emotions by myselfâif no one can help me, I will dieâI have to do something.ââ
â from Healing the Fragmented Selves of Trauma Survivors by Janina Fisher
today's message is:
labels aren't always fixed things.
It's ok to change labels. It's ok to discover something that used to fit least week, doesn't fit anymore. It doesn't make your identity nor your feelings any less valid and real. It just means you're discovering new words that describe what was always there, or that you grew and changed and need other words to identify those changes. It's natural.
One of the most important things I learned in my Language and the Law class is that law enforcement will intentionally misinterpret every type of statement asking for a lawyer as not asking for a lawyer. Even directly saying it like this âI will not speak to you without a lawyerâ can be taken as a simple statement of fact rather than a request for a lawyer. You literally have to state âI am now invoking my right to a lawyerâ and every time they try to proceed with an interrogation you have to answer every question with âI am invoking my right to have a lawyer presentâ. You canât just tell them you wonât talk without a lawyer or that you want a lawyer. You have to state that you are invoking your rights. Otherwise they could just say âwell they just said they wouldnât speak without a lawyer present. Thatâs not invoking their rights to a lawyer. Itâs just stating a fact.â even just stating your right to a lawyer doesnât count!
PLEASE share this addition. I am a lawyer who works in criminal defense, and this is one of the most avoidable things that people consistently get wrong about the Miranda rights.
Here are some more âambiguousâ phrases which courts have found DO NOT invoke your right to a lawyer:
âMaybe I should speak to my lawyer first.â
âI might like a lawyer.â
âI think I should have a lawyer present for this.â
âCould I speak to my lawyer first?â
âHow long until my lawyer gets here?â
And perhaps most egregiously â âGet me a lawyer, dawg â âcause this is not whatâs up.â
Here are the magic phrases which you need to know if you want to invoke your Miranda rights:
1) âAm I free to leave?â
Itâs worth asking this even if the answer is obvious. Even if the officer does not let you leave, by forcing them to admit that you are not free to leave, you are creating a record which your attorney can use to prove that you were in custody. Miranda rights only apply if the interrogation is custodial, meaning that police officers will frequently claim that their suspects were ânot in custodyâ to get around their Miranda rights.
2)Â âI am invoking my right to remain silent.â
Simply staying silent will not invoke your right to remain silent. As absurd as this is, you must explicitly say that you are invoking your right to remain silent in order to invoke that right.
3)Â âI am invoking my right to an attorney.â
As stated above, you must be not only clear and unambiguous, but clear and legally unambiguous. Donât get cute. Donât get sassy. And on the flip side, donât get intimidated and use verbal ticks to minimize your request. Say the line with those words exactly â say it clearly, and say it once, and then say nothing else.
Because even after youâve done all this, the police can still try to get you to talk. Theyâre not supposed to interrogate you, but theyâre allowed to make casual conversation, and if that conversation just happens to circle back around to the thing they wanted to question you about, well, thatâs really your fault for talking after you said you wouldnât, isnât it? Canât possibly fault the poor officers when you initiated â if you really wanted to have your rights respected, you wouldnât have talked to them in the first place.
The police know this, and they will mercilessly exploit this loophole. So, once youâve successfully invoked your Miranda rights, any and all conversation you have with police officers will put those rights back into jeopardy.Â
Putting it all together:
Ask: âAm I free to leave?â
If they say no, say:Â âI am invoking my right to remain silent and I am invoking my right to an attorney.â
And then shut up and do not say a single thing to them for any reason whatsoever until you have actually spoken to an attorney. Yes, even if it takes hours. Yes, even if they start talking to you about something else.
Finally, a very important disclaimer:
I may be a lawyer, but Iâm not your lawyer, and I cannot guarantee that what Iâve just laid out here will always work for every situation. We didnât get to this bizarre and absurd place overnight â we built this ridiculous system piecemeal, by deciding on a case-by-case basis that certain phrases were âtoo ambiguousâ or certain types of questioning werenât actually questioning at all. The law is still in flux, and is still fundamentally out to get you, and willing to bend plain meaning beyond all recognition to do it. Even if you invoke your rights perfectly, exactly as I have specified above, thereâs a chance that your invocation of rights will be disqualified on some new technicality that no oneâs even thought of yet â and thatâs precisely the problem.
Watch this video: âDonât Talk To The Policeâ
I am begging my followers to please watch this video from start to finish. I know itâs long, but it is incredibly valuable information that everyone needs to know, especially if youâre involved in any form of activism.
Every single cop lies. Every single cop lies and manipulates and twists the situation around to get a confession. Even when they know that the person is innocent, even when they know that what they have isnât enough to convict someone, even when they know that that confession has been made under duress or manipulation. All they care about is getting anything to put someone behind bars.
It doesnât matter how eloquent or innocent or experienced you are. Do not talk to cops.
idk i just think thereâs something wrong with how positivity posts for fat women and girls will list ten thousands of ways we can still be hyperfeminine and dainty but acnowledge exactly one way fat women can be gnc, if at all. fat gnc & alt women are here and there are many of us. fat women deserve to know we have a choice other than performing the extremes of femininity in order to be treated as human.
in that vein, shoutout to fat butches, shoutout to fat women who dress like surfer or skater bros (whether you actually surf or skate or not), shoutout to goth and punk fat women of varying personal styles and subcultures, shoutout to hairy fat women, to fat women who are big and broad and like it that way, shoutout to fat women whose personal style is literally just the first thing you grab in your wardrobe, and shoutout to many other ways of being fat and not typically âfeminineâ, whether you consider your style masc or not.
i love us and i think we deserve to know we can exist this way and be valuable and appreciated too.
hi beloveds i would appreciate if people would stop taking this post as if it says that we donât need to be attractive to be valuable, which is a valid and true statement but this is definitely not the message of this post and immediatelly associating gender nonconformity, especially in fat women, with unattractiveness and undesirability is very uncalled for and upsetting.
believe it or not, there are many people who are attracted to us and not despite our appearances, but because of our entirety as beings, which includes our size and style.
gnc & fat does not need to be beautiful, but we can be.
A lot of times I hear white people usually also cis, use adhd or autism as an excuse to continue supporting shitty content creator and I understand the impulse to say that but using neurodivergency as an excuse to be racist is still racist and feels like you're saying that your need to hyperfixate matters more than the rest of us. I also know that for me being told to just "care about something else" doesn't really work when I am hyperfixated.
Just from personal experience I would recommend:
Finding some core aspects of the fixation that appeal to you; genre, character archetype, art style ect, and then actively do research on an intersectional/inclusive artist who creates similar content
Sometimes revisiting an old hyperfixation helps me transition away from a destructive one. Going back to a familiar media can be like a safety blanket while avoiding a toxic one.
Unfollow and leave the online communities of the toxic media. You don't have to cut people off (hell get their email and maybe you'll get to be better friends) but steeping in the same content with people who encourage it won't help you move on.
If you have a therapist or close friend who isn't invested in the fixation actively talk to them about the change you're making. Externalizing things helps make it feel real and even if you just mention that you're moving on it can help, they might even have suggestions!
Lastly, acknowledge that you are going to be uncomfortable and actively tell yourself that it is worth being a better ally. Leaving a hyperfixation isn't easy, and no one is expecting you to be jazzed about it but you need to remind yourself that media has very real consequences for real people and you are navigating discomfort for a long term positive outcome.

For Autism Acceptance Month, I felt the urge to focus on Quinnâs terrible experience with a certain type of therapy that many autistic children were/are subjected to. For Quinn, this lead to masking, self harm, and overwhelming stress growing up. Because of her need to protect Claudette from this abuse, she was finally able to understand that her own autism wasnât a bad thing and taught her daughter the same.
Misinformed and ablest societies are the reason why autistic people call for acceptance rather than awareness. We donât need a cure, we need understanding and resources that actually help us rather than those that stigmatize and try to change us.Â

Hereâs a link to a Google Doc with a bunch of Indigenous organisations which you can donate to, including Black Rainbow (LGBTQIA+ Indigenous organisation) and groups that support incarcerated Aboriginal people and work towards ending Indigenous deaths in custody
it makes me uncomfortable how frequently attempts to raise awareness about adhd and autism in girls emphasize these kids as quiet, well-behaved, and not noticeably different from their peers. neurodiverse girls who successfully mask and and suffer invisibly deserve empathy, of course, but so do the girls who grow up labeled aggressive, inappropriate, or âweird.â a lot of nd girls have meltdowns and social difficulties which are labeled as anger issues and behavioral problems. nd girls are often perceived as âbad kids,â especially if factors like poverty or race are already priming both adults and their peers to see them that way. i donât think itâs honest or socially responsible to present silently blending in as the only or even primary way developmental differences manifest in girls. Â
good morning to introverted autistic people, extroverted autistic people, autistic people with flat affect, autistic people with low empathy, autistic people with hyperempathy, non/semi-verbal autistic people, autistic people who use aac, autistic people who sign, autistic people with intellectual disabilities or comorbid disorders, autistic people with stereotypical special interests, autistic people with obscure spIns, people with autism who prefer person-first language, queer autistics, autistic people of color, autistic people with verbal stims, autistic people who flap, autistic people with echolalia, autistic people with texture sensitivities, sensory-seeking autistic people, self-diagnosed autistic people, autistic people who project a healthy amount on that "quirky" fictional character, autistic people who use tone indicators, autistic people with executive dysfunction, autistic people who have meltdowns, autistic people who have shutdowns, autistic people who feel like they're contributing to a stereotype, and autistic people who don't fit society's view of what autism is "supposed" to look like
Ok I am thinking again and ⥠i hate the idea people created that fat people are cuddly bc like that COMPLETELY ignores the idea of fat people who are touch repulsed, have trauma that involves being touched, and/or are neurodivergent. Also it's stupid bc fat people shouldn't have to be seen as fucking pillows or stuffed animals for people to like them. They're humans just like skinny ppl jfc

This is about Sci-Hub. yeah we get it.. gatekeep knowledge and protect the interests of capitalâŚ
Listen, this is serious.
Do not use the website called Sci-Hub!
It lets people access scientific articles for free. This is dangerous. It helps the free flow of knowledge and reduces the competitive edge of all the people who worked really hard to have been born into a wealth.
Like, itâs literally a website where you can type in the DOI of an article and read it, without ever having to pay the publisher who exploited the author.
So, again, do not, under any circumstance, use Sci-Hub. I mean, can you imagine a world where knowledge is free and easily accessible to everyone? Even, y'know, poor people?
Libgen also has many books online, including textbooks, searchable by name, author, and ISBN. Can you imagine textbook companies not getting their hard-earned income from poor college students? Here is the link just so you make sure that you never accidentally stumble across this horrible, unethical website.
Oh, and while weâre talking about books, if youâve managed to stay clear from Libgen, definitely donât go to zlibrary, where you can also find a lot of textbooks, but unfortunately theyâre completely free.
