The main life problem of Seren Calvert, up from her 17 years, was to concile some of the Plato's theories she studied in class with the everyday life of a normal bookworm, at least until she went to Delphi on a schooltrip and discovered something more than just ruins and legends...
Transphobia is about to be signed into law in the UK. We can fight this.
I am begging the UK trans community and its allies to attend the Mass Lobby at Parliament on June 25th, 11am-4pm, organised by Trans Solidarity Alliance.
Last year we broke the record for an LGBT+ mass lobby of Parliament. Will you help us break it again? Join us on 25th June 2026 to demand be
The new EHRC Code of Practice pushes trans people out of toilets, hospital wards, and community spaces. It normalises gender policing based on appearance and stereotypes. It becomes statutory guidance in the UK by the end of June.
Trans people are now legally their assigned gender at birth and must join gendered spaces accordingly, but if they are perceived as their lived gender, they can also be ejected from those spaces. The guidance says: either break the law, or don’t pass too well.
A mass lobby is where you invite your MP to discuss your concerns with you in-person. Ask your MP to:
Demand full parliamentary scrutiny, debate, and use their free vote on the EHRC Code of Practice.
Support any motions rejecting the EHRC guidance. As of June 4th, Labour MP Nadia Whittome has submitted a prayer motion - Early Day Motion 240.
Write to Bridget Phillipson, the Minister for Women and Equalities about our concerns
Your MP does not have to be an ally, they do not have to respond to your email for you to show up and greencard them (details below the cut.) What matters is that as many people as possible show up.
I cannot stress this enough: Showing up in person matters. It is much more effective than petitions, emails, and letters.
It is a horrible, stressful time, and I am so sorry if you're trans and live in the UK. But I was at last year's mass lobby and the line for greencarding alone stretched around the back gates. It was a record breaking mass lobby and made us impossible to ignore. Let's do even better this time. Details under the cut:
Worried about what to say?
Bring your personal worries about transphobia being signed into law, and trans friends being excluded from public spaces. You are a living person who deserves dignity. Remind your MP of that. You will also get guidance and brochures from Trans Solidarity Alliance that outlines our demands. This is mine from last year.
Money issues?
Trans Solidarity Alliance provides a travel bursary that you can sign up for via the link.
Got a refusal or no response from your MP?
Come anyway! You can request a same-day appointment with your MP through a process called greencarding. They will come and see you if they’re already in Parliament. Even if they don’t, they’re made acutely aware of your cause because you showed up in person. This is my greencard from last year.
Here is the EHRC Code of Practice in full. It's a tough read, but some highlights are:
Organisations can’t provide trans-inclusive, single-sex services, or they risk being sued for discrimination.
e.g. domestic violence support for women including trans women, men’s rugby group including trans men (12.68).
Trans people will have nowhere safe to pee.
If you’re a trans man, businesses can't allow you to pee in the men's, and you can also be ejected from women’s bathrooms if you’re perceived as a man. Vice versa for trans women. EHRC suggests a ‘third space’ bathroom, which is discriminatory and unworkable for most businesses. (13.130-133)
Sports organisations must exclude trans people from single-sex competitions (13.73).
A women’s only sports competition must exclude trans women because of their biological advantage or face potential lawsuits (13.74), but a trans man who has undergone testosterone treatment can also be excluded based on fairness rules (13.81).
Trans women are stripped of the legal definition of ‘lesbian’, and therefore no longer have legal protections if they’re discriminated against on the basis of sexual orientation. (2.50, 2.92).
Here is the Good Law Project's better explanation of the EHRC Code.
I have also made a PDF printout of QR codes for the government petition, email your MP tool, and mass lobby link to pass around your communities. DM me and I'll send it to you.

Like they tried to change Reblogs and people rightfully got up in arms, this is a LOT worse. In order to have access to any sort of thing dubbed mature, and We haveALL seen what they think is mature, Everything from a black and white photo of a black woman's arm, to posts about IUD recalls, to a nude painted by a 17th century artist, to anything involving the word Trans; you have to send your personal information to a third party site that WILL get hacked, and you will be doxxed. And they can say "Oh shit, well it wasn't us who sent your name address and gender identity to Moldovan teenagers, here's a couple extra minutes in the ball pit.
That's bad enough!!!!!!!! But the entire idea of needing permission from state authorities to access anything labeled mature by our friendly AI overlords is some fucking Boll shit. Die Gedenken Sind Frie baby. This is all a reaction to people getting uppity about their lowly lowly rights and is being propped up by the same bad actors tht have made life unlivable. Fuck that shit.
"Well it's only being rolled out in Brazil and UK" Yeah, to start. "Well they're being forced to do this by laws." YOu know it's always really funny when these tech giants (Or whatever you call owning tumblr dot com) get really antsy about laws considering they pick and choose which ones they abide by.
This is a breaking point and it's going to be very interesting to see how we proceed from here.

i have been job hunting for almost a year now with no luck and i am now out of money. my husband is overworking himself so we can continue to have a roof over our heads. i know the world is fucked for everyone right now, but if you could spare anything to help me get the medications i need or help with paying my credit card bill, i'd greatly appreciate it <3
Tumblr has blocked me. I'm your friend Ibrahim Abu Rukhiyeh. I hope you can help me and follow me here on my new account. I feel like my heart can't take any more pain. I swear to God I'm in therapy and I don't have the money.
Ibrahim's account, which he was using to fundraise for food and medical needs for himself and his elderly mother, was taken down without any warning. Please, help share his new account and donate so Ibrahim can get the vital food and medications he and his family need!

Ibrahim messaged me on Instagram to tell me that Tumblr took away his original account that he had been using for months (years?) @/aburakhiaibrahim.
This is so horrific, to do this at a time when Ibrahim and his family are suffering from starvation. Please donate if you can, to make up for this horrible act by Tumblr.

Guys, Gaza is being forgotten… but nothing has stopped.
People are still dying, hunger is still growing, and medicine is still nearly impossible to find.
We are living in conditions that get worse every single day. Basic needs have become a constant struggle, and survival itself feels uncertain.
My father is very sick and urgently needs treatment, but we are unable to provide what he needs in these harsh conditions.
We are doing everything we can, but we cannot do this alone anymore.
We urgently need your humanity and your support.
Please, if you can donate and share our story, do it now.
Dear Esteemed Donors,
My name is Ahmad, and I am a 16-year-old from northern Gaza… Ahmad family needs your support for Support Ahmad’s Fami
📍📍📍 Fundraiser vetted (#167 by el-shab-hussein & nabulsi), But we created a new GoFundMe page because GoFundMe suspended the beneficiary’s account on the platform, which put us in a very difficult situation.
I am a friend of Abdul Rahman and his family, and I am writing this appeal because what they are going through is beyond unbearable.
Abdul Rahman's mother has liver cancer, one of the most dangerous types of cancer. Her condition is very serious, and she needs urgent treatment without any delay.
11,164 euros have been raised out of a goal of 30,000 euros, and time is running out before the Rafah crossing opens so they can travel for treatment.
Please, don't leave them alone… Every donation or share could save a mother's life.
Your compassion today could change the fate of an entire family 💔
Keti Jovanovski Needs Your Help | A letter from Abdul Rahman: Dear friends and kind hearts, My name is Abdul Rahman, and I write to you from
Has what we're going through become normal for you? Have you grown accustomed to hearing this? Please, for a moment, stop everything and pay attention to me. I'm sharing this with a heavy heart… Time waits for no one, and my mother's life hangs in the balance. I swear to you, her condition is very serious and we need to act quickly. I don't want to lose my mother.
Please don't leave me alone and don't extinguish my hope… Your donation now could save her life 😭💔
I swear my mother's condition is extremely serious. Why aren't you helping me? I need you! I need your help! My mother's condition is critical. Today we went to the doctor, and he told us she'll be hospitalized on Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday because of her serious condition. On our way home, my mother stopped walking five times because of the pain from the gallbladder issue that's still in her body. Please help me!
The doctor also stressed that she needs immediate treatment outside the Gaza Strip, and the Rafah crossing is still closed, but there are reports that it will open next week. Please, my mother's life depends on your donations. I implore you, I appeal to your compassionate hearts, please don't ignore this. Donate for my mother now, even a few euros will help. 💔
Don't donate to World Central Kitchen because even after their members were murdered by Israel, the founder Jose Andreas still collaborated with Israel and recently they served displaced Israeli settlers bombed by Iran and Hezbollah

and, finally, this isnt a community organization, but @lgbtq-refugees is a large group of LGBTQ refugees who have reached out to me personally. they have been kicked out of multiple IDP camps because of their queer identity. i can personally attest they are real refugees who really need help. you can donate to them here
We are living in tents that are not fit for human life rodents are everywhere, gnawing at everything: even children, food, blankets, clothes, and the tents themselves. There is nothing protecting us from these pests, and the situation is getting worse every day.
There are poisons to fight them, but they are extremely expensive and we cannot afford them. We need your support to help purchase them. The required amount is €250.
This is no longer just an inconvenience it has become a serious danger. A few days ago, a neighbor’s infant was harmed when a rat bit his face, a shocking incident that has left us all in fear.
We urgently need a solution before things get even worse. Your support today could help save a life.
My name is Osama Radwan and I raise money for my friend Siraj, a former journalist from Gaza who lost his job at the beginning of the war, h
Please consider helping, or at least share this post so it can reach someone who can.
Verification: Siraj was #219 on el-shab-hussein and nabulsi’s list but GFM arbitrarily deleted his fundraiser. el-shab-hussein reblogged a post about his Chuffed campaign here.

Guys I want to bring attention to the Revive Gaza’s Farmland initiative!!!! APN is working w farmers in Gaza to help restore Gaza’s agricultural sector. They’re just shy of being within 67% of their goal at the moment. Please show them some love by donating & spreading the word
We have been dying a thousand times every day since October 7, 2023. We have endured what the mountains could not bear.
Since October 7, we have been suffering from war and siege. We have not eaten vegetables, fruits, and meat for a whole year.
They saved us. We have been bombed every day since October 7th. Since the seventh of October, we have lost our dreams since the seventh of October, and we have been suffering from hunger, thirst, and deprivation due to the siege. Since October 7, we have been so hungry that we have to eat animal feed. We suffered from a lack of clean drinking water due to war and pollution, and we live in an environment full of diseases.
This is a small part of what we lived and what we live every day that saved us from this brutal and barbaric war
Help my family and get us out to safety ** Hello, I am Jawad, I am 60 ye… Rose K needs your support for Rescue Jawad’s family and help them

20th march, mass Tumblr log off in protest of the reblog update
Remember when we threatened a mass log off to get rid of shapes.inc and then all the shapes.inc ads mysteriously vanished? yeah, let's do that again. On the 20th of march 2026, we tumblr users will log off in protest of the split notes on reblogs. Spread the word!! Reblog!! Tag your moots!!
Side note: tag yapping doesn't seem to count as an addition to the OG post, you can use that to carry out conversations.

so as long as tumblr keeps this, here's the tumblr version of etiquette that was maintained when twitter's quote-retweets affected artist visibility/notes:
for art that someone has added reblog commentary to (or removed the caption from), reblog from the source
otherwise, avoid adding reblog comments to art (as this will affect the artist's notes/visibility)—utilize tags and replies to provide commentary (which artists will absolutely appreciate)
reblog comments are comments added to the body of a post, not the tags and not replies.
The reblog chain is one of the things that makes Tumblr unlike anywhere else. All the notes on reblogs are attributed to the original post, no matter which branch people actually liked or reblogged. We want to keep encouraging conversations, and give contributors the recognition they deserve.
Soon, you'll be able to like, reblog, or reply to any part of a reblog chain, and that note will go to that reblog's author. Each reblog will have its own counts, instead of one aggregated number from every version of the post. And yes, you’ll be able to like multiple posts in one chain.
If a reblog doesn't add anything, the love flows up to the last person in the chain who did. Your post doesn't lose notes just because people spread it quietly.
Past notes will stay on the original post — we're only changing what happens from here on out. Retroactively re-attributing all of them would be... a lot.
This is just the beginning. More changes are coming as we keep building this out – stay tuned!
I sent them a complaint about it through support system (and encourage you to do so too), and got an automated reply from a slopbot who explained to me how notes work (in the old system obviously). you need to reply to the slopbot email to get past it.
