She/Her, He/Him, They/Them DNI if homophobic, transphobic, and others. Equality and Love here only. All who are not these are welcome. Will do Tips, Advice, Resources and so on to help other people. Will sometimes do poetry and stuff on side as a lunch break.
If anyone needs this here is an app that can help you out.
It is called Everywhere Is Queer. It is an app that lets people see any LGBTQIA+ ran business near them. Wherever they are. They have everything from food to therapy to candles. They are inclusive of everyone, and let you type in your own pronouns instead of a selecting from an amount. It has a soft off white background with soft orange and teal colors so it isn't too bright of a screen.
They have the ability to let you favorite locations, see any new business pop up on the app, and can go as far as thousands of miles out. They have a map so you can look at the roads to get there, as well as blips on said map for every location using the app so you can search through the map. They also have a search bar and filter as well.
They got a ton of stuff there to help you out: tap on a blip and you get a description of each business. The ability to let you know if any new business pops up on said app. They have featured locations that pop up at the top if you want a featured one (they are at top regardless of how far away from you they are). And they start their searches from closest to farthest from you.
They got cafes, therapies, parenting classes, daycares, salons, and more.
Hopefully more businesses see it so we can get more businesses on it. If you know anyone who is running any small LGBT safe businesses please put them on the app! The map works without wifi as well (if I am not having a very good glitch with it).
I am trying to post this everywhere in the hopes more people who need this type of thing can see it.

Had this in my head for a total for 15 minutes and now I share because my brain can just do this on the spot.
Ok so imagine you're in a boss battle cutscene or something.
You are on the plains. Barren, and empty. Dust takes over what should've been wheat. What should've been corn. What should've been oats. What should've been crops. The ground is dusty, dry, drought ridden, and dead. The air is dusty, unbreathable, suffocating in the dust and free floating dirt and bits of possibly sand. Yet you persist without protection.
You see a horse, and with it, a horseman. You go up to the horse. The horse is a matte black, dulled down to greyish black. Covered in dust, dirt, and what you hope is dark ashes. The horse looks like it has been walking without food or water for weeks. Skinny and frail, and with ribs showing through skin, yet no sign of weakness in body, or loss of liveliness in the eyes. The eyes blind and clouded and reddened from debris, yet stare as if they can see you clearly. The horse makes the approximation of a "hff" sound.
The horseman stares at you now from the worn down leather saddle. Color faded from it with cracks and wear loose seams all over it. The horseman has cuts and has scars. Hair falling out with white and grey patches with small clusters of black hair, like threads of string amidst a dirty mop of white and grey hair; yet somehow sparkling, like a bit of black dirty snow against fresh white snow with all the colors inbetween. The horseman's hands arthritic and skinny from starvation and farmhand labor. Their legs gangly and weak from months of walking and non-use at the same time.
You ask who they are, and if they need help. And they stare at you with a empty gaze, and pull out a scale. Penny on one and wheat, oats, and corn husk on the other scale. Their voice scattered and echoed across the barren land. It is chittering and stuttering with clicks, like it is practicing the sounds yet already knows what it is trying to say. Sore from both coughing and not speaking, raspy from too much use and not enough, it speaks with a strong placehold here, with authority and promise.
"I am the rivers and streams without fish."
"I am the lakes and ponds that have run dry."
"I am the land where crops have turned to dust."
"I am the oceans that have been overfished."
"I am the drought you have soiled into the land."
"I am the Earth deprived of resources."
"I am the starving child and elderly alike."
"I am the farm animals slaughtered to their last."
"I am the crops harvested until they can be harvested no more."
"I am the animal that bears no offspring. I am the plant that bears no seeds."
"I am the seeds that bring no yield."
"I am the elderly cow that brings no calves."
"I am the wheat milled and eaten by mice and man."
"I am the bread eaten a long time ago, with no more to come."
"I am the fork and plate with no food."
"I am the cup without water."
"I am the starvation in villages and towns, cities and suburbs, rural and urban areas, countries and continents, and nations and kingdoms alike."
"I am the hunger that claims you."
"I am the starvation that claims you."
"I? I am Famine..."
The fight begins.
I am seeing this being more and more real in my dreams so I share a section. I thought of this part in about 15 minutes with extra time to write it. My dreams are both cool and wacky like this. Hope you enjoyed reading it. Proofreading isn't my strong suit so sorry of sentences are clunky!
Their goal is to kill us all off. To make us cease to exist; in public, in private, and in all records. They ban children fron HRT to make less trans adults. They ban adults now to make less elders. And when they reach elderly age, they will die off with no one after them. This is how you kill a group. This is how genocide starts, rolls, and ends. It has been started. It has been rolling. And if this keeps up, this is how it'll end.
Keep fighting. We are needing to persevere and protest for all we got.
Here is the many ways they've done so and will continue to do so again if you wanna read it. Doesn't pertain to this type of thing much. Just more examples. If needed I can delete if it runs off too far from this post:
The bathroom laws aren't and weren't for people to have transmen in the womens bathroom or transwomen in the mens. It was to eradicate people from public eye. It was to cause trans people to be outed and to be violenced upon and violated. To be killed. They don't want trans people in public. So they did this so any trans person wouldn't want to be caught out in public.
The Aids crisis was spread to be a vector to kill us all. A cleansing. A genocide.
Book burnings are not to protect kids. They are to eradicate our culture. Our history. Our memory on the wheel of time. Our languages: the lavender languages. Polari, Swardspeak, Lubunca, and more. They are all part of this, and any books pertaining to learning them or even have some of it in there may be destroyed. Learn some while you can.
They are censoring us in movies, films, shows, and so on for a similar reason^.
This ban is the killing of the adults. DIY HRT is known to be risky depending on circumstances. They know this. They don't care. They hope that DIY HRT will be done dangerously enough that it kills the user. By banning the safer stuff, the more legal stuff, and by restricting who gets it, they will be able to arrest anyone who makes it. Who uses it. Who needs it. This is genocide. Restricting who gets what and when and where is not ok.
They will go after DIY next. I guarantee it.
Fight back by living, persevering, thriving. Kick back these laws. Protest if possible. Boycotts and talking can only help so much.
Learn our cultures: our lavender languages, our roots, our history, how we got here, our music, the lavender marriage history and significance in it, our people's names in history, our rebellions, anything they erase we will learn about. We need to learn about it.

this is absolutely concerning, but we've been through times like this as a community before, and networks exist to transition without the state's permission. Also check in with any trans community members, especially trans elders, to see if there are local diy networks near you
The legislation faces an uphill battle in the Senate.
Deep fucking sigh. The SAVE America Act, or the voting rights overhaul that restricts mail-in voting and voter registration, requires presentation of a passport or birth certificate to register and a state ID at the polls, and now Trump wants to throw in anti-trans stuff just because, is in the Senate, and it's unpopular even with Republicans.
You know what you need to do. US citizens, call your Senators. ESPECIALLY if they're Republican. Republicans are balking and your voice is crucial to get them to stand strong.
Always remember: if voting didn't change anything, they wouldn't be trying so hard to make it illegal.
We should all be talking about KOSA. The bill would mean the end of the open internet in the US, and it was just approved by a House committee for a floor vote. The act is ostensibly designed to regulate the age of social media users. However, it actually deanonymizes the internet and allows the government to sue LGBTQ+ websites.
Unsurprisingly, the Heritage Foundation is one of the main lobbying groups behind this push. They have publicly stated they want to use the law to restrict LGBTQ+ and abortion-related content. Blocking children under 16 from accessing the internet means young people will be isolated within their communities. They cannot discuss LGBTQ+ issues with their online peers. They could not request help to access abortion clinics. Senator Marsha Blackburn, who once personally sent the FBI to my doorstep to harass me, admits the law is intended to shield âminor children from the transgender [sic] in this culture.â
âThe through-line couldnât be clearer: destroying online anonymity is a way for government to be able to identify ÂŹâ and ultimately punish â dissenters,â explains Ari Cohn, lead counsel for tech policy at the Foundation for Individual Rights and Expression. The DHS has already subpoenaed hundreds of anonymous accounts tracking and protesting ICE. KOSA would make it even easier for the government to access your data.
HAH! I got 18.
Barely. But I think one I got wrong by accident (like the screen was still loading when I pressed the answer but still, 18 isnât bad?)

it exists to divide the working class. All labour is skilled labour. Yes including that one. Yes, including that one too.
Do you know what's unskilled labour? Owning capital. There's no labour involved, thus requires no skill. And you can tell because people can be born into owning capital.
Hey so I still see people utterly baffled by how religious fundies (still a majority in America and moreso its senate) react on certain issues so uhhh is it actually not common knowledge what the antichrist is all about? You guys know his defining characteristic is ending war, right? That heâs foretold to unite the world under his leadership by preaching global peace and solving basically every single problem in the world? So you know when you try to talk to these people about equality and togetherness they literally believe thatâs what makes you an agent of the devil right???
Yes, heâs called the âantichristâ because heâs an imposter Jesus and the majority of the world will love him when he ends all class divides and erases all borders, creating one world government with him at the top. Thatâs the ânew world orderâ theyâre terrified of. But they think heâll oppress true Christian believers who see through his ruse, which is why theyâre constantly looking for signs that theyâre being discriminated against and panic when they lose any control over government. This is why they fear diversity, immigration, socialized anything. The less religious right are pretty clearly still running on the same logic; they might drop some of the spiritual lore but this is where they get the idea that all progressivism leads to the ârealâ fascism. Some believe the antichrist isnât a literal person either but just that entire set of beliefs, so everyone protesting against war and trying to feed the hungry is a *collective* antichrist.
So from the notes it turns out people are MUCH less familiar with all this than I suspected and thatâs honestly kind of alarming, guys, you should really really pay attention to things that affect so much of this country. No these are absolutely not obscure or fringe beliefs, these are MAINSTREAM with megachurches, Trump voters, the GOP and a vast proportion of the wealthy. Alex Jones and multiple Fox News hosts openly believe word for word what I described here.
And yeah as several people pointed out it isnât even explicitly in the bible, but something some radicals pieced together in maybe only the last century. My uncles all believe it to the letter and they all believe itâs what the Bible is âsupposedâ to be communicating.
A lot of people are also confused as to why they would believe the peace and unity are villainous things and what the difference even is then between the âantichristâ and actual Jesus, which brings me to another thing I realize some folks CRITICALLY overlook about American Christianity, which is that they do not believe in good or bad deeds. They believe the same deed can be right or wrong strictly according to whether or not itâs performed by a believer with Godâs stamp of approval. Like, they KNOW the Satanic Church and Witch Covens do community service or donate to cancer research and they are not confused, surprised, bitter or embarrassed by that at all. Itâs exactly what theyâre taught to expect. They believe the forces of Satan do primarily âgoodâ things so people will think heâs just as good or better than God. So if a pastor heals a sick child with a prayer then thatâs good, but if a âwitchâ heals the same sick child with âmagicâ (not something I believe exists, but they do) then thatâs a false miracle from the devil and the child was better off dying because now everyone involved is a sinner who deserves hell. Theyâre taught to view you as a ridiculous fool if you donât grasp this difference, and every single argument you might make is a part of the satanic trickery.
After all, they think our entire existence on this Earth is an insignificant speck in the grand scheme of things. The suffering in the world isnât a bug to them, but a feature that God set up to test everyoneâs worthiness, teach them lessons and filter out the faithless, so they actively do not believe itâs always morally right in itself to help people or save lives. Rather, certain people are just intended to suffer and die and it can be MORE wrong to help them.
Sorry to put this big ass thing on your dashboards again but Iâm downright awestruck by the notes. Thereâs 15,500 of them at the time of this reblog and almost zero disagreement, just hundreds of people expressing absolute terror that they didnât realize they were living under the thumb of a doomsday cult, and Iâm really really sorry for that because I really did not expect to be the bearer of that news to so many. If you havenât looked at the notes for yourself though, theyâre pretty eye opening even to me, especially the next most common type of response on it:
âŚ.And something Iâve heard before but still neglected to mention:
âŚ..so thatâs all pretty nightmarish confirmation of how pervasive this mindset is around here, but you know, if the majority of reactions to this information have been either âwhat the fuck are you talking about?â or âyeah I WAS taught this and Iâm better now,â maybe thatâs a sign that itâs slowly but consistently fading with every generation?
I actually wasnât raised religious AT ALL, and it was still impossible for me to not hear this shit constantly in the 80â˛s and 90â˛s from basically everyone outside my immediate family. Itâd even crop up on television and radio stations that werenât even supposed to be christian-oriented. Just boom, thereâs an evangelist suddenly talking about how Only God is Allowed to End War and Satan Takes the Form of Kindness, like these were just normal banal perspectives to toss in between a relationship advice segment and the latest movie reviews.
Iâm really proud of every person saying they escaped from that indoctrination and actually feel much better and more hopeful about the whole thing. It might not be fixed completely in our lifetimes but clearly it is fixable.
I always forget there are maga people on tumblr, this doesnât feel like a website youâd find them on, so to keep them away:
Reblog if your blog is a maga free zone because if it wasnât clear enough fuck ice, fuck maga, fuck Trump, Fuck Rowling, and fuck all the other bigots I missed
Dick Grayson becoming something akin to shadows (I believe his suit changed color and he emanates shadows I think too. Described with black and silver)
They join Gotham's side
They all try to convince him to rejoin their side
Dick Grayson most likely dies and that is how Gotham keeps him
He is missing and is found on building top one day
He is described as being seen on a building top and that is where they try to convince him to stay or at least try to have a conversation with him again.
I haven't found it yet. Any help will be appreciated.
Hi guys! A bit of a different tune from my usual tune but my abusive parents have been getting worse recently, including raising the possibility of marrying me off as soon as I graduate HIGH SCHOOL (I'm 17).
In order to avoid this I'm planning to leave to go to University this year I'll need to be able to pay my way through year 1 before I can apply for estrangement scholarships.
Yall please help this guy. He's one of my best friends and is also a moron who almost doxxed himself, he will NOT survive forced marriage people đđđ

you do not need to be in constant pain to own a cane.
folding canes have a clasp or band to keep them folded. losing the band is a pain in the ass.
you will get dirty looks
it does not matter what age you are. you will get dirty looks.
you have to hold it in the opposite hand as the disabled leg. this is fortunate, as I am right handed, so i hold it in my left hand to support my right leg.
people will try to steal your cane from you.
when standing still, I hold it in my right hand unless i need to do something right handedly. this does not work as well as i thought it would.
being visibly physically disabled is difficult. having a mobility aid will help with pain and movement, but some people don't get them because visible disability is treated with disgust.
if someone meets you for the first time, and you don't have your cane, then they will like you more, but they will not believe you are actually disabled.
if someone meets you for the first time, and you have your cane, they will not treat you the same.
the majority of other cane and mobility aid users I have met are homeless. I live close to a big city.
People do not want to see you being disabled.
you will not hear of the benefits of using a cane from anyone who does not use a cane.
no one will prepare you for the world of being visibly physically disabled. however bad you think we have it is usually not from the disability at all. I can deal with pain and I can deal with an indisposed left hand.
the hardest part of being disabled is the fact that no one will care until you make them care.
the disabled seats on trains are a suggestion
the disabled seats on buses are a suggestion.
you will have a different experience with using a cane than I have had.
your hand will become tired. you are using it as a leg.
your cane is legally a part of your body. this will not stop some people.
you are not your disability. but it will affect you.
i love you
theres always an invisible someone who has it worse. that person will not be affected or offended by your use of a cane. take the damn ibuprofen. put the folded cane in your bag. ask your friends for help. gd knows they need help sometimes too.
you will have to learn that things will be impossible to you. you may not run as fast anymore. you may not become a skater, like you always wanted to be. you may be left behind when everyone else runs ahead.
you deserve better.
your cane handle gets dirty. wash it.
some days pain is worse. some days you will feel it the moment you wake up.
no one deserves pain. the human condition is not to suffer. we deserve better. we deserve to be loved and not tolerated. we deserve to be seen better than from the corners of eyes. we deserve to be heard better than an afterthought at a meeting.
be quick to care for yourself. I love you.
Stop tagging this as a reference for your writing or characters or whatever. I'm a person. I am real. You make it sound like I'm the first disabled person you've heard of. This post was made by a disabled person for other disabled people. Tired of this disrespect
Computers are so scary what if I accidentally hit F12 in a steam game and it takes a screenshot. What if I press shift + F12 while in word and accidentally save my document đ
If you had to learn what the F keys on your computer do through me reblogging this post, then I'm glad you did. Computer literacy is not a skill that gets taught anymore, and it is absolutely one that needs to be taught in order to be learned. Don't ever feel bad for not knowing something, but âď¸ don't ever stop learning learning about your environment, the tools you use, and especially the people around you
