On November 7, 2024, Denmark used a racist, culturally biased "parenting competency" test to remove a 2 hour old baby, Zammi, from her loving indigenous Greenlandic Inuit mother, Keira, because her native language, which uses minute facial expressions to communicate, will not be able to "[prepare] the child for the social expectations and codes that are necessary to navigate in Danish society." This test had been recommended not to be used at the federal level before this happened but certain municipalities, including the one this happened in, chose to continue to use it regardless. Not only is this blatantly racist but also violates multiple declarations and conventions that Denmark has signed that protect the rights of indigenous people.

Please sign this petition to help Keira to get her baby back.

best part about comic tumblr is that it is the only fandom i’ve been a part of where no one says “i just love the fandom so much we’ve created such a safe space here 🥺” like i have never seen even one post about how much someone loves the dc fandom. this is not a happy family this is a cold war and im just glad we all know that

Please stop trigger tagging with #epilepsy tw/cw/warning/etc.

I need every single person to understand how horrible tumblr’s tagging system is

I go into the tag for epilepsy and its all flashing lights. We can’t use our own tag because people without epilepsy fill it up with improper warnings.

Use ‘flashing’ in place of ‘epilepsy’ in your tags. You aren’t warning people of epileptics, you’re warning us of flashing lights. Please please tag properly. Epileptics say this endlessly and constantly and it’s ignored. You are risking lives by doing this.

Here’s proof of what I mean:

THIS POST IS 100% OKAY TO REBLOG, I ENCOURAGE PEOPLE WITHOUT EPILEPSY TO ESPECIALLY DO SO!

the only roman emperor i respect is honorius because, during his reign, rome was sacked, and when someone brought him the news that rome had perished he freaked out bc he thought they were talking about his pet bird named "rome," and when they explained that they were talking about the city he was like "oh thank god. who gives a shit"

So my sister wants to start sewing more, because

a. She’s 5′ 11″ and can never find pants long enough for her legs or shirts long enough for her arms.

b. She hates synthetic fibers as much as I do and it’s difficult to find natural fiber clothes that aren’t made of cotton

c. She’s a biologist and would physically fistfight microplastics if given half a chance

So her gift from mom and dad for her birthday was a sewing machine. Not a super expensive one but a good solid serviceable one.

And recently she asked “So where do I GET wool or linen and thread that isn’t polyester” and mom was like ‘go ask your sister’

And I, of course, crashed into the group text like “GET A PEN I HAVE WEBSITES FOR U” and honestly I’m thrilled about this

first loves are so uniquely intimate and precious to me because there's just something so pure and innocent about falling in love as a kid.

like, hi! i haven't lived very long on this earth and i don't really know what forever means at all and more likely than not, we won't get to spend it with each other. but i will promise you forever anyway because i want to, and that's the closest thing we'll ever get to peace.

and i will pick you wild dandelions from the grass on our way back from school and we will wish on them, together, before trying to blow all the seeds away in one breath and failing miserably. we will collapse into laughter, joyous and free, and our hearts will be light the entire journey home.

and i will trade plates with you at lunch to eat all the lettuce and tomato you've picked out of our sandwich. in exchange, you can have my pickles because you like them, even if they're my favorite part too.

and we will swing our clasped hands as we walk down the street, humming our favorite songs together while the april sun sets in gold above our heads. and i will look over at your smile and believe with all my heart that you are the most beautiful person alive.

and you will be my first thought every morning when i wake and last thought every night before i sleep, because my day always starts and ends with you.

and we're growing up so fast and the world won't wait for us. we only have this singular moment to hold onto each other like this and then we may never cross paths again after our lives diverge at this point –

but in this moment, you are everything to me simply because i want you to be. in this moment, we are together and there's golden sunlight at our backs and dandelion seeds scattered around our feet. in this moment, my stomach is full of lettuce and tomato, my heart is bursting at its seams, and everything is good.
