Also very frustrating as a show producer in certain cultural arts when you are trying to advertise tge show and people feel like they're not allowed to come because theyre not from the culture.

Please come to the drag show even if youre cishet.

Please come to the bellydance showcase even if youre not Middle Eastern.

Please come to the Asian Festival if youre not Asian.

Please dance at the drum circle if youre not African.

If the event is being publicly advertised, you're invited. We want you to come if you intend to come respectfully. If you are asking 'am I allowed,' youre probably bot gonna be disrespectful. Please fill the seats. Cultural events have trouble with attendance sometimes because people who would be curious to go get shy about it. Please go to things that are curious to you. Your presence is not a burden.

I have yet to be kicked out of anything (unless you count the bathroom at a gas station that one time.)

Reblog to give a trans woman an embrace so warm and loving that you feel her shoulders drop and her body finally relax a little

To be fair, the reward for working really hard isn't always just dying known as someone who worked really hard.

Sometimes you work yourself into some sort of permanent condition and die known as a malingering parasite because everybody assumes you were faking your disability to get out of work instead.

tldr: I'm a trans woman in dire need of help paying rent and bills. Anything you can spare helps tremendously.

Hi! I'm a trans woman who's been on tumblr for well over a decade posting my photography, my writing (political and smut), and can say the people here have changed my life tremendously over the years. Right now I'm really struggling and hoping that ya'll can help me get through this rough patch. I have been trying to get a job for months now and no companies have so much as graced me with a rejection e-mail or phone call. Last month my husband had to spend the last of his savings on replacing tires on his car, that money was very pivotal to paying rent + having money to grocery shop off of. We're in desperate need of help with rent, electricity, meds, etc. etc.

If there's any way you can help here's how:

Hey. so. i probably can't post too many details due to the pending legal stuff, but basically my old roommate is taking me to court for $800+ moving expenses, plus a bunch of other ridiculous remedies. If i didn't have a lawyer coworker who agreed to help idk what I'd do. I thought the abuse was finally over when he moved out, but now he's pulling this junk. Fortunately i have a literal mountain of receipts on this situation.

Unfortunately, this situation is burning though my money. Ive had some help with the printing costs, but still not quite all of the ~$85 i spent printing relevant documents at FedEx office. I also spent $85 on cameras for the house because my roommates and i were concerned about him or his bf's coming back to try stuff, and also ~$30 on house keys for the new locks. Oh how could i forget $65 on a couch since he stole our couch when he moved out, tho i also had some help with that cost.

I was intending to update my phone this month since my current one's battery life is starting to get.. problematic. but dealing with this money pit has completely drained my funds. I'm down to $24 in my bank accounts and out of food. I dont get more food stamps until the 3rd, and even then my monthly allotment was reduced from $105 to $26 because the paystubs i submitted during redetermination were from when i had a bunch of extra hours when my coworker was recovering from surgery. I plan to resubmit stubs once i get my next paycheck, but in the meantime i just have to make do.

If you can share/give anything at all will go a long way towards helping us get through this.

This disability pride month I'm BEGGING you to acknowledge and care about the people in this community who often fly under the radar when it comes to positivity and information. People who require equipment to live, like ventilators, pacemakers, and feeding tubes. People who are bedbound. People with visible differences. People who have disabilities caused by things like substance abuse, overdose, or self harm. People with conditions so rare that they've never met someone who has the same one. People who need full time care and have to have help to use social media.

If you want to support the community, that means supporting all of the community. Disability pride means being proud of every last one of us, and making sure everyone feels heard. Make sure to amplify the voices of those who need it this month, and ideally for the rest of the year too.

some appear to believe that washing dishes is basically a ritual action, i.e. the dish reaches a "washed" state once you have performed the actions of dish washing, involving dish soap and sponge, and that your obligation ceases once you have done this, and not at the point at which the dish is actually clean.

"these researchers published a paper on something that literally any of us could have told you 🙄" ok well my supervisors wont let me write something in my thesis unless I can back it up with a citation so maybe it's a good thing that they're amplifying your voice to the scientific community in a way that prevents people from writing off your experiences as annecdotal evidence

Contrary to popular belief the biggest beginner's roadblock to art isn't even technical skill it's frustration tolerance, especially in the age of social media. It hurts and the frustration is endless but you must build the frustration tolerance equivalent to a roach's capacity to survive a nuclear explosion. That's how you build on the technical skill. Throw that "won't even start because I'm afraid it won't be perfect" shit out the window. Just do it. Just start. Good luck.

"what did students do before chatgpt?" well one time i forgot i had a history essay due at my 10am class the morning of so over the course of my 30 minute bus ride to school i awkwardly used by backpack as a desk, sped wrote the essay, and got an A on it.

six months later i re-read the essay prior to the final exam, went 'ohhhh yeah i remember this', got a question on that topic, and aced it.

point being that actually doing the work is how you learn the material and internalize it. ChatGPT can give you a short cut but you won't build you the the muscles.

Rock Lee vs. Gaara went SO hard and was so memorable, it unintentionally tricked an entire generation into thinking Naruto's underlying theme was that effort and hard work ultimately triumph over natural talent. Naruto was, in fact, not about that. It was the opposite, in fact.
