“Unlearning ableism requires a fundamentally anti-capitalist change in perspective.
Specifically, it necessitates that you believe in the inherent worth of human beings, regardless of someone’s social position or productive potential.”}
text in the image: a tweet by @JulianKJarboe on twitter: “God blessed me by making me transsexual for the same reason he made wheat but not bread and fruit but not wine: because he wants humanity to share in the act of creation. I am only doing the Good Works here on Earth as intended!”
What a beautiful gift it is to be trans and/or nonbinary! God invites all of us to be co-creators. None of us come forth from the womb fully formed – we are all called to grow, to transform, to become. Those of us who are trans/nonbinary get to do that in a unique way.
this is so beautiful. And as a transgender man who is still part of the church, if not as actively as my family, I have struggled to find a way to express these exact thoughts in words.
I hope that someday I can have the courage to tell it to my family as well, that the reason I am walking this path is because I believe it is part of what God wants and intends for me in my growth as a human, and not because I think he made a mistake.
what with all this flower crown business going on lately i felt it was important to unearth this actual line in an actual second doctor novel
[id: highlighted text reads, “He had contrived to fix a wreath of holly and mistletoe around his head and, as he skipped happily along the embankment, he looked for all the world like some ancient woodland spirit come to life.” (After that- “He rubbed his numbed hands together and hummed to himself a little tunelessly.”) /end id]
This has got to be the most sad argument for capitalism i’ve ever seen
types out the zeros for 3 billion but not 4 billion so 3 billion looks bigger

[image description: an is this a pigeon meme. the words “y’all demons” are edited over the man’s eyes, the words “women with misogynistic abusive partners” edited over the butterfly he’s gesturing at, and the words “is this an opportunity to joke about straight people?” edited over his question. the second image which was added through a reblog, is a screenshot of what someone else had tagged the post when they re-blogged it. it reads: “in our defense…….many know they’re abusive and could safely leave but refuse because they just don’t want to be single. and they say ‘i don’t have to be in a relationship to be happy’ but still refuse to leave.” the image that follows is the same version of the meme above, but the man is instead edited to say “is this her fault somehow?” end of image description.]
this is the most viscerally lesbian image I have ever seen
[Image Description: A photograph of a piece of plywood, the bottom righthand corner of which has been broken off. Written on the plywood in black permanent marker is the inscription: “LESBIAN HAIRCUTS!!! (FOR ANYONE) $15 (AND BIKE STORE)”]
